Best soft pretzel in Lancaster county! The stick pretzels have been a staple in my family for…read moreyears. They have expanded their store and menu and have a lot of options like pretzel logs, ice cream and chocolate covered soft pretzels. They carry a few other local food items as well. Ice cream is from Fox Meadows. Prices are fair. Plenty of parking. Stop by and try some samples!

We were driving through the New Holland area and stumbled across this little shop/market that has…read morehuge pretzels on its signs and exterior walls. If you're in the area, be sure to check it out! We decided to have lunch and ordered a couple pretzel sandwiches. Mine was called a Dutchman, which had ham and cheese and a creamy sauce made of brown sugar and mustard. My wife ordered an Italian sausage pretzel sandwich that she devoured. We of course had to try a plain soft pretzel too. The market sold a lot of touristy Amish stuff like maple syrup, soft pretzel mix, bacon dressing, and empty pretzel casings for hot dogs (pretzel dogs). Probably the only reason we didn't give 5 stars is because of its rustic bathroom. It's a single porta-potty that sits outside the store. Better than inside the store I suppose, but eww! No sink to wash your hands, just hand sanitizer. So be forewarned; take care of your private business somewhere else before dropping by.

These are the real deal for big soft pretzels. The chain store in the mall are dreck compared to…read morethese. Yes there are plain big pretzels and you can get mini hot dog pretzels for the kids. Mustard and cheese dips to go with it. But what YOU really want is... Pepperoni stuffed Steak and cheese BBQ pulled pork and cheese Ham and cheese Chicken cordon bleu ( chicken, ham Swiss) Brisket ( soft pot roast beef: mushroom, onion, cheese) My photos are of the Brisket. Oh my goodness. Oh my word. These are absolutely delicious. Fresh hot from the oven. Line is long but moves fast. Only two tables inside. Eat it at one of the many picnic tables or in your car. It won't last long. Eat it while it's hot. Cash only! But not a lot of it. I think each one is 6 bucks. Big pretzel is 1.25. How can you not.

We ordered at…read more6:30 PM at 7:20pm we asked where our food was and they said that they would start it then, almost an hour after we ordered our food! At the time I'm writing this it's 8 o'clock and we still have not gotten our order. absolutely insane we got one burger a side of mac & cheese, and one sub! Absolutely do not recommend!

Decor/service: nice small brewery. Parking seems to be pretty rough as we had to park on side…read morestreet couple blocks away. The service was pretty bad. The food came out in a reasonable manner but our server couldn't have been any slower. 10-15 minutes before she came to take our order. Forgot to bring a drink, then spilled the drink. When we were done eating we sat there for a good 15-20 minutes until we grabbed another waitress to get our bill and to go while our server stood chatting with other guests the majority of the time we were there. Really a shame because the food was good. Plenty of allergy friendly options. Burger was cooked well and flavorful. Bacon could have been a little more crisp but not bad. Everyone else enjoyed their meals as well but the service really brought it down

Also got a side of the mac and cheese which was good but just needed a lil extra salt :). Fries were awesome and waitresses behind the bar were so attentive! Would go back if we are in Ephrata again

Run, don't walk the Rural City. If you want the feel of a local community bar/pub with great, well…read morecrafted beer then Rural City is your place. The range of available beers will suit everyone in your group. I am a local. This is my regular, go to spot and I've been to every craft brewer in Northern Lancaster and Southern Berks Counties. The staff is exceptional in helping people select beers. The food compliments the beer offerings. The rotating variety of egg rolls is unique. If you remember the former brewery, which shall remain nameless, forget it. Rural City will blow it away. Drop in and say hello to Ben and James (the owners). This might easily become your go to spot.

Visited this place from out of town and saw a HUGE beer garden on the website. Sadly when we went…read morethere was no beer garden but that place was still pretty cool. You can sit wherever you'd like and there are games and stuff to use while you're there. For a beer company, the selection was fairly small. They did have canned cocktails that were local though! Food menu was pretty big. The burger and tacos were delicious, the mozzarella sticks only had 3 sticks which seemed too small to be app. Overall nice place with friendly staff.

One of our ladies ordered the Rachel, The bread was burned to the point of rock hard. When she told the Server, Her response was no apology and just asked if she wanted to return it?? What the heck!! Our lady decided to skip the sandwich altogether and just eat her soup. She couldn't remember anything! We would have loved more water, We didn't bother to ask. We left early. I would have to say I won't be back, Not impressed. I might also add her shorts were so short her butt cheeks were hanging out! Where is management?

First- Walking in and getting stares was awkward. It appeared that a majority of the patrons…read moresitting at the bar are "usuals" and it's a very "everybody knows your name" type of place. No one greeted us- which is ok but we were a little confused about seating since there was indoor and outdoor. We figured out that we were to find our own table and order at the bar. Which, again, was fine, except there was a sign to view the menu using a QR code- also fine, but we couldn't find the QR code- anywhere. We eventually found paper menus. I ordered the soup of the day which was tomato based with chicken and mozzarella. It was the best part of the meal. I got the pulled pork sliders on pretzel buns. It was so dry. I needed to ask for mustard. That helped some but overall the taste was average at best. The biggest, and oddest, disappointment was the cucumber and watermelon seltzer. There was a very distinct taste that I couldn't put my finger on until I forced myself to take three sips. Finally I pegged the taste as pepto bismol - which is definitely not cucumber or watermelon. It certainly had to have been a bad batch. A very strange and very unsatisfying experience. Maybe it was just a fluke. I like to give places second chances because you never know what the story is and it could have been an off night. But, this place won't make it back on my list. One positive is that they had a few option of non-alcoholic beer.
