American Restaurants near Spring Grove

“We had this bar recommended to us, so we decided to give it a try. We came here Friday for dinner. Not sure if we went in the correct side, we went to the bar side that had limited seating. However, the food and service was pretty good. I got a finger licking chicken sandwich with fries and the cream of crab soup. Cream of crab was a big bowl and sandwich waspretty good. Fiance got a soft shell crab sandwich with fries. She said it was good, just wish it was a little bigger. Overall, was a pleasant experience here. Good service and food, at affordable prices.“

“For awhile, there was some turnover in the cook staff and the service and food was not very good to be honest. Some of these issues seem to have been fixed and changes have been made for the better. Service is much faster and food quality has improved. If you haven't been there in some time, give it another chance. I'm glad to be patronizing again.“

“We LOVE this place. And our waitress ASHLEY, was awesome. Attentive, super personable, and what a memory. There were 5 of us at the table and she remembered our orders and got everything exactly right, and didn’t need to write anything down! Great waitress. 5 stars.“

“We visited last month with friends and enjoyed it so much we came back this month as just a couple. The food is always fantastic and great portions. Our waitress Sue was incredible! She was so friendly and we enjoyed talking with her. We can’t wait to come back again“

“Update 2+ years later.. more words. Quality is just as good as our first time here. The fried chicken is maybe the greatest on the planet. Crispy outside, juicy inside like something that you'd see in an advertisement - but you actually get it. I had the steak, tenders, broccoli casserole and mashed. I didn't need all that food but I couldn't stop eating. Heather is a freaking machine behind the bar and the staff is a well oiled machine. Will definitely be back sooner rather than later this time. Oh.,. The croissants ... 🔥🔥🔥“

“We stopped by for supper May 30 2025.

“Went on a busy Friday night but hostess was able to accommodate myself and two daughters. I was in a rush and was pleasantly surprised by the speed of service by the wait staff and kitchen. Everyone was pleasant, food was excellent (kids had burgers and fries and I had the chicken sandwich). Had a long drive home and we arrived at 7:15 and left by 7:50 with full bellies, fun atmosphere, great staff… which was ideal! Highly recommended!“

“We just celebrated our Dover Area High School graduate this past Saturday (5/31/25) at the Roosevelt Tavern, and everything—from the food to the atmosphere to the service—was absolutely FANTASTIC.

What made the day even more meaningful is the personal connection we have with this place. The father of my children, Edward “Peewee” Green, was a chef here many years ago under the previous owner, Bob Schimmel. Sadly, he passed away in November of 2012. Though my kids were only 4 and 5 years old at the time, many patrons still fondly remember him and speak so highly of his time at the Roosevelt.

What we didn’t expect—what truly left us speechless—was the incredible gesture from the current owner. Unbeknownst to us, he had held onto one of Peewee’s old chef coats for the past 15 years, and he gifted it to our graduate during the celebration. That thoughtful, deeply touching act gave our kids a priceless piece of their father’s legacy—a physical connection to a man they’ve heard so much about, but lost too soon.

We are forever grateful for that moment. It meant the world to me and to our family. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.“

“We appreciate their support of collegiate golf. Course was in great shape.“

“The hostess was absolutely amazing. He promptly greeted me and had me in a booth surrounded by the history of York PA. I’ve always been fascinated with the history and culture of the city. The server was gracious and attentive. She listened to every detail and executed correctly. I highly recommend this one it’s quiet and serves a diverse range of residents from young to old and anywhere in between. You are welcomed here and the food. The food is always delicious and…. I can’t say enough and you need to check it out yourself.“

“My family and I visited Avalon Ale House not long ago and I felt I needed to share. The friendly staff was very attentive to our table. The exceptional food selection was a plus! I would recommend this to someone who has not visited and we will definitely be back again! Keep up the good work!!“

“Very outstanding,Delicious food. Service is beyond great! Chef Neil is there please. You will want to go back to Sidney's every chance you can.“

“I really love the food here, and never had a bad meal. We love going for breakfast and glad you changed from home fries to hash browns. But we don`t get there for breakfast much because you changed your hours. For us 10am is to late when you get up around 6am.Please try to open around 8am. I hate to have to go some place else for breakfast. Thank you“

“BEST breakfast around! Staff are kind, and friendly people. 5 STAR!!! My Favorite!“

“Food is always great, my family has come here for years … always friendly service. Ask for Kearstyn as a waitress!“

“10/10 will be returning!!“

“I cannot even begin to express how grateful we are for the kindness and exceptional service provided by Jim & Nena's. After a failed delivery with GrubHub it was much needed!! They were patient with GrubHub and my husband as all 3 worked together in rectifying the situation (which was no fault of the restaurant). They not only offered to deliver our order themselves (so we could stop dealing with GrubHub), but also gave us an additional pizza!! Ps. The bacon cheese fries were LOADED in cheese & bacon & they were absolutely delicious. We will certainly be stopping here more often (rather than ordering through GrubHub).“

“Best Mexican restaurant in the area! We had chips and salsa within a minute of sitting down. I am a big fan of the seafood chimichangas, and the super queso dip.

“Good food , good prices , good service😊“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“Great place with both outdoor and indoor seating. They have crabs, seafood, and broasted chicken. There are a good assortment of sides. The broasted chicken was awesome, and my wife really liked the crabs. It's a casual place with a nice casual atmosphere. It can be loud. We spent about $60 for the two of us, including the tip. That's comparable to what we spend at Mission or Red Robin and less than we typocally spend at Long Horn. Hanover is about an hour and a half from where we live. Today we were in the area for other reasons and decided to give Big Mike's a try. We will definitely come back, just to eat here, even if we don't have any other reason to go to Hanover.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Delicious Food. Excellent Service. Cozy setting.“

“Thoroughly felt welcomed mid-afternoon today at Perkins of Hanover! The Staff made sure someone was getting me my drink. Amy made 'The Best(special order) Chocolate Root Beer Shake for me. My HOT food was out in no time! The pictures on Perkins Menu are
SO helpful - but always a tough decision cuz the food is always good.... Best pancakes(especially in the Fall- the pumpkin ones), waffles, all types of eggs and getting into Dinners - Roast Turkey with the Works, yummy Beef Pot Roast and several options of seafood. They've even made the Tilapia for me for breakfast before! Fish is 'brain' food, an ideal start to my day! I LOVE that they have All Day Breakfast! AND I was able to donate to a very worthwhile community cause - customers & staff, alike, were donating left & right to a local family in need. KUDOS to all Staff at Perkins of Hanover - SERVING customers and the community!“

“We had a buffet style meal for 32 people and it was just awesome. The food was hot and delicious the server was a gem. Definitely would recommend for your gatherings.“

“Original music hub of York pa ! Supporting artists for 30 plus years ! Dark and dirty bar!“

“Fantastic food! Cool vibe. Drinks were really good. My kids thought it was life changing.“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“I love thier ice cream & the people are very respectful!!“

“Great Brisket! I highly recommend them.“

“I'm a Yorker. But hadn't frequented the white rose after they went to a more upscale setting, my old high school homie suggested we go there and after we got seated I found out his out of town visit was for a death in his family that he assumed I knew about but I did not... now your staff being as great as you guys are and the food made this bad personal experience for us very nice otherwise, and it made me feel I may visit again sometime for lunch and a cold 🍺“

“If you just looking for a normal 2 egg breakfast with coffee you can't go wrong here. The food is consistent and good usually. I go here often enough and I have had days where things where off but then again I've had that happen everywhere . The food here is good , good price, and the staff is friendly and fast.“

“I haven't eaten anything that wasn't delicious yet! The drinks are good and decently priced. You are allowed to smoke in the bar, so if cigarettes bother you, it's probably not the place to go for you. You can take your drinks into the bowling alley and play a few games while you drink! I always have a good time there.“

“This place wasn’t bad but I expected a little better service. The steak was pretty ok. The Texas onion was on point. The shrimp was average. The salads were nothing to write home about. The server was less than desirable. No such thing as refills or prebussing tables. It was average at best. Prices are high compared to similar places. If I didn’t have a gift certificate I wouldn’t have chosen this place.“

“Great place to see bands. The food is amazing. The bartenders are nice and the service is top-notch. Can't wait to come back.“

“We loved our dinner! Our waitress was friendly, the wait wasn’t long and the food was delicious! We will be back. The atmosphere was a lovely throwback to how restaurants used to be when they were unique. Five stars!“

“If You Dont Know about this place... you REALLY should go!“

“Our first time visiting this establishment and we could not have been more impressed! The service was welcoming and excellent. The small plates were not very small and were absolutely delicious! The chef clearly knows how to make dishes taste savory. The beer and wine selection is top notch and our waiter was well educated. There is a piano in the main dining area, though it was not being played during our visit, the vibe of the restaurant conveys it would be an amazing piano bar experience. Oh, did I mention the food was fantastic? There is a bar and lounge upstairs that offers a small and relaxing getaway from the main area on the first floor. Will go back often!“

“The Valley is like no other place in the area. Best chicken 🐔 and seafood and qasudeilla around but what makes this place so special is the owners. They care about the place and the customers. a regular home burnt down. they rasied 2 k for them. food drive for people in need. They give back to the community. They always go the extra mile that most places would not think of doing. The food it self makes a must go place to eat. The owners make you feel like family. A cast of regulars that make everyone feel welcome. Trivia on Tuesday is just fun.“

“The customer service here is great and is what keeps me coming back. They remain the same no matter how crazy busy they get. Never get an attitude no matter how many questions you may have and that keeps me wanting to support their buisness. 👍🏿“
