“The value you get here is AMAZING!! And the staff are all so sweet. Everything was delicious and we left feeling stuffed! ❤️“

“I came here 9 years ago broken by life yet again. I went to work and held my responsibilities but I needed a lot of alone time. Cathy is such a great listener. Donna is manager. I'm moving on today but I will always be connected to The Rambler Inn 💕“

“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“

“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 visited this location on 4/4/2026. We decided to eat here since it's close to.the college my son attends. This was our first time ever eating at Cheddar's. The food and service was excellent. My son loved the Buffalo chicken wraps. My daughter got the tender meal but only at the fries, because she ate some of my wife's steak. Normally we have to find a place that serves lamb for her to eat something other than tenders when we go out.“

“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.“

“Lovely I love this place I“

“Fantastic“

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

“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.“

“Been going to Hoss's since I was a little kid and I absolutely love that nothing has changed. Now I bring my son for our nights out because it's his favorite restaurant. Big pat on the back for keeping every generation happy.
Edit: I married into a big family and now we all love coming here!“

“We traveled across the entire state just to get here on our way to visit family and it did not disappoint! Robyne was our server and she was fabulous! She was so kind, thoughtful, and took care of us so well! Thank you for making such a memorable experience on our road trip!“

“The mushroom burger was delicious 😋“

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

“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).“

“Tried it for the first time got the classic burger with bacon pieces and it was absolutely amazing and I let my daughter have a bite a she wanted to eat my whole burger… started running around the house yelling burger.. 😂 also ordered the Pierogi’s and they were good as well.. definitely worth trying. Although should have meal options… and more options period I saw other pics other ppl posted of other menus.. good place !“

“The spicy burnt beef sandwich was soooo good!! We also got Ribs and a loaded baked potato, all was delicious! Definitely will be back. Also very friendly and great service!“

“my mom and i had a great time here and their mojitos were really great and i would rate this restaurant 10stars“

“We come all the way from Massachusetts and always stop for ice cream and breakfast! The food is always so delicious and of course the ice cream! The staff is so nice and we love seeing them every year! We even get the best souvenirs to bring home! Johnny is hilarious and always so fun to have as our waiter! And you can't forget about Laura one of the most kind,caring person❤️! Be sure to check out the wall of pictures we are on there!! Till next year❤️“

“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“

“Server - 120 Ciarra R today was Topnotch! Great food and experience! Thank you!“

“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.“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“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.“

“Had lunch at the upstairs bar today. Everything was wonderful.“

“The place is very clean , organized, and neat. They are very friendly and welcoming . Today was my first time finally coming in, and I am SO glad I did! The owners are so sweet , and gave me so much background on their recipes and where things come from (which I love to hear). I ordered brisket, pulled pork, and both their regular and bacon smoked macaroni and cheese. Y’all … I didn’t even heat it up before trying a bite from all of it . It is so freaking delicious !!!! I can’t wait to go back . Looking forward to trying more . 100% worth every penny. I’m so happy to have them here in Dover!“

“Good food , good prices , good service😊“

“Simply the best! Highly recommended!!“

“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.“

“We love Ray of Sunshine! Great homestyle cooking and amazing service! We love breakfast especially! Amy is great at making everyone feel welcome.“

“My favorite burger spot in the area. The classic on wheels is 🔥 🔥“

“This was my first time going and picking up food from Goofys. I had heard nothing but positive about them. We order boneless chicken wings, bone in wings, shoestring fries and wedges. Everything was yummy. I'm the future,I will ask for my wing sauce on the side. It is too much for me. But that's me. Yes, they have that they charge you 1.00 per celery, 1.00 per ranch on their website. So be aware. It adds up. They are a cash only establishment. They have that on their website and they tell you when you order. My food was on time and accurate. Loved the atmosphere! Seems like a nice neighborhood bar with a small eating area that has really good food. Will be back again!“

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

“Kim as a hostess and Donna as a server are a combination that is impossible to beat. I am a regular and when Donna sees me she brings my drink order along with greet me to the table. Two other waitresses that I have had there that are truly excellent are Kristin and Emily.“

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Food was good, service great. Drinks delish!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“omg I fell in love with this place while furloughed and found them on grub hub. the tripleta and Cuban is to die for!!!“

“We had an absolutely awesome time here! Our bartender Jaime was incredibly friendly and helpful, she made awesome recommendations and made our group feel welcome and comfortable as it was our first time in!

Thank you for an amazing evening and awesome ambiance paired with delicious food!“

“We got here around 4pm. We were told only one table was available because of reservations. There were still tons of tables not occupied. Got our table, ordered food. Food was good. Then the waitress never returned. Had to go up to the bar to get refills. Also had to get our check, and pay it at the bar. The tables were getting filled, but we didn't expect the waitress to not come back to our table.“

“The Mid Bucket chili is too die for.“

“We came here for dinner on a Saturday evening in September. We saw on Facebook that a musician we like was performing. Facebook has this listed as Center Square Brewing but the sign outside still says underside bar.

We sat at the bar. We ordered drinks and then dinner. I had the cashew crusted chicken and it was good. It came with two pieces of chicken and I took one home as leftovers. The steak meal was very good as well.

The bartender was friendly and attentive. There weren’t too many people down there. The atmosphere felt like a basement - I mean, it’s a little dark because it’s down stairs and there is no windows and everything is brown or dark colors. It was casual and relaxed. Prices were comparable to most other local places we go.

Parking was a free paved lot adjacent to the building.“

“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. 👍🏿“
