We stopped here for a "spur-of-the-moment" lunch.......glad to see that they were open because they are closed on both Monday & Tuesday.Our server, Dee, was very friendly and answered our questions/made suggestions.My spouse started his meal with the French Onion Soup. It was delicious.......filled with lots of sweet-tasting onions and topped with a thick layer of cheese. I could have actually made a meal from just this soup.....a nice portion-size and so tasty!He also had the Seafood Strudel....a combination of scallops, crabmeat, and shrimp wrapped in a phyllo dough. Again, a very good entree and he liked the two side dishes that he could order to accompany it.I decided to try the Mushroom Swiss Burger and was very happy with both the size & taste of it. It was prepared perfectly to my medium-rare request. The burger came with one side dish....my French Fries were crisp and flavorful.If we had one recommendation for the chef, it would be that our food (except for the French Onion Soup) could have been hotter. All of our entree items were just warm....not as hot as they should have been. Other than that, a great first time visit.....we will be back!

We went on Friday of Memorial Day for lunch on the way up to Hazelton. Our waitress was very nice, service was fast, and the food was basic, but good (patty melt, mac and cheese sandwich, and reuben + ice cream). The only error is that they missed the hot fudge on my sundae, but she brought it when I asked for some. We were traveling back on Monday of Mem Day and decided to stop with our friends because we had had a pretty good experience. The service was HORRIBLE and it was not busy (less than half the tables were filled). We had to ask for the waitress THREE times to come to us (from the hostess/other people). To take our orders after being seated, to bring the check (half our party was leaving), and to take our ice cream order (AFTER being told we were going to order ice cream separately after they left). We were there for almost 2 hours (and did not mean to be). The stuffing is good, the ice cream is good, and sandwiches were all good. The salmon sandwich came with french fries rather than the chips ordered, but that was the only error this time. FYI, we were not the only ones having to ask for our server to be found...another table in the corner was having the same trouble.

We went here for lunch today. It started promising when we ordered the toddler a grilled cheese right away so he didnât have to wait and got it quick. After that tho it took a while to order our food and we were there over an hour before we got our food 45 minutes for the cup of soup. We all got our luke warm burgers and sandwiches and were told that the fries would be coming out. An hour and no fries. When I asked for the bill there was running around but no bill. She just went about her business on the other side of the restaurant while I tried to get one of the other 5 people who were just standing around. In the end they gave us coupons for us to throw in the trash because there is no way I would ever go back there. The only reason they got any stars was because it worked out for the kid.
4. Dunkin' Donuts
America's favorite all-day, everyday stop for coffee, espresso, breakfast sandwiches and donuts. Stop by or order ahead with the Dunkin' App.

Since I got their card, I'm there at least once a week. This makes the coffee you ordered perfectly un like the ones I visited in Florida. Love the vanilla cupcake latte.
