34 Best American Restaurants near Shoemakersville

“Went with my whole family. Very accommodating for a group of seven adults and three kids under 10. We did call ahead though since they have limited seating. Standard Americana diner foods. Generous portions and inexpensive. Service is fine. Have an option of hash brown or home fries for most of the breakfast options (the hash browns seemed the better of the two ?)“

“The Third Rail is the quintessential local gathering spot—warm, welcoming, and always buzzing with good energy. I ordered the Buffalo Chicken Salad and it was phenomenal—perfectly crispy chicken with just the right kick, fresh greens, and a generous portion that left me full but still dreaming about it. I paired it with a cold draft Sam Adams, one of many stellar choices from their rotating tap. The beer selection is unmatched in the local area. Whether you’re a hophead or just want something easy and refreshing, you’ll find something you love.

If you haven’t been to The Third Rail yet, you’re doing life wrong. Go now. Take your friends, your family, your neighbor’s dog—just make sure you go.“

“We go to Crossroads regular since it is close to work. We'll after lunch today, NEVER AGAIN. We were scolded by our waitress. We ordered a burger and fries and added the 3.99 charge for a salad. I ordered a crock of soup for 5.99 and ate my husbands salad. She pointed at us and said that is a big No,No,No. Then intern charged us for the salad bar of 10.99 and the extra fee to add to his meal of 3.99. When went up to pay they said we shared. My husband did not eat a salad I ate it instead of him. We paid for it so who cares who eats it, it was paid for. Argued to remove the side salad. What a going on. They kept saying we Shared why we did not we ate 1 salad and no soup from the salad bar, I paid extra for a different soup. We said we won't ever come back they said thats fine-bye. Instead of beginning polite the male in charge was rude. To pay 40.00 for lunch we don't need to go back to be treated like a 5 year old. We will take our business somewhere else on Route 61.“

I recommend their French onion soup and Salmon! That was a pleasant surprise.
We will visit again.“

“The food is delicious, their cocktails are amazing, & the staff are always friendly. I definitely recommend the Cowboy Pork Chop when they have it as a weekly special. It was the best pork chop we’ve ever had! The stewed tomatoes are also really good & I don’t even “love” tomatoesz“

“Always fresh! Anytime of year!!“

“I don’t usually write reviews for cookies, but this one deserves it. The Sweet Street Salted Caramel Cookie is honestly something special. I tried one on a rough day, just grabbed it out of curiosity—and it stopped me in my tracks. The first thing I noticed? It smells like a real homemade cookie the second you open the wrapper. None of that weird fake vanilla scent or plastic-y aftertaste like most packaged snacks. Just rich, buttery goodness and that perfect hint of caramel. I looked it up afterward and wasn’t surprised to see it’s made with real ingredients—like all-butter, cage-free eggs, and zero junky additives. You can seriously taste the difference. It’s soft, just the right amount of salty-sweet, and doesn’t feel like it came off a factory line. Honestly, this cookie brought me a weird little moment of peace when I needed it. Like opening up a small bit of home, even when you’re far from anything familiar. If you’re looking for something comforting, real, and actually worth the calories—this is it.“

“My friend and I dined here last evening and we had the most remarkable experience. Our server, Cheyenne, was absolutely incredible!! She was very knowledgeable about the menu and extremely personable. The food was delicious and the overall experience was amazing. I will definitely be back!!“

“My go-to breakfast spot, when it’s not so packed & busy!! I’ve lived in Berks County for 3-4 years now, and have never been disappointed.
Their staff is friendly and welcoming, and whoever the cooks are in the back, are doing their thing!!!! I can’t wait to try lunch/dinner one day, I’m sure that’s amazing too. But for breakfast…pshh. Best place I’ve found so far, since moving from the Lehigh area.“

“The food was amazing as always but our waitress was terrible. we had to wait 15 minutes just for our beverages, had to wave down another waitress to let her know. at the end of our dining, the girl we had to wave down, got a better tip than our original waitress.“

“food was delicious! waitress was absolutely amazing. friendly, attentive, just all around spot on. Will come back!“

“Enjoyed a nice steak dinner! My husband had ribs! Country music in the background.“

“Love the small bar vibe. I had the spicy garlic wings & a side salad. The awards don't lie, the wings are super yummy. After reading on here about recent service experiences, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm happy to report that the problematic bartender is no longer here and everyone I encountered was nice, chatty, and helpful. Highly recommend!“
