Cheap and enjoyable road trip stop. There are other restaurants, statuesque dinos, and a mini golf course in Dr Doolittle's Plaza (?), but we came here for what seemed like the quickest option. It is also very, very cheap. You can eat inside or sit out on a bench. There are ordering windows inside and outside as well. We got a hot dog, cheeseburger, milkshake, ice cream, fried cauliflower, and a large curly fries for less than $25 (including tip). They had a variety of ice cream flavors. I got the banana cream pie which was very much exactly what it said on the label. I wish we'd had more time to spend here because I'd love to see what their other restaurants are like. There was plenty of parking around and we had no trouble even with a Uhaul and a car tow. read more

A real shitty way to run a business! There website and fb page states hours of operation. This is the second time it "should be open" that we drove the grandkids 1hr 30min to see the dinosaurs. Both times the girls in the ice cream place stated that "someone is on the schedule and should of been there since 10am". This time we asked if there was someone to call to open or a phone number for us to call and the girl said they can not tell us that. We called number on door (which had open sign on it) and it is full voicemail. The sign says open, fb and website say open, and the girls working say it's open, but not open. We were here at 1130 and stayed til 1222 and there were 4 other cars with kids waiting. Maybe should change hours or have someone working. read more

Place is small cute and family friendly. Food is great service is always fast as well. I love the environment that the place gives.

Upon browsing for reviews,I've noticed there are no pictures of ice cream...and then devoured my own "red velvet" cone,forgetting to take a picture myself! Cute corny roadside place that I'd recommend to take a stop at when driving I-80. Ice cream alone was well worth it - and quickly served! read more

Food was not great. Service was not great. Atmosphere was not great. There aren't many places to go in this neck of the woods, if they put some effort in this location could have potential. read more

Very good food and a very nice restaurant service was very good and atmosphere. Was alsome

This place is a GREAT stop off of I-80. The LIFE-SIZED dinosaurs set into the hills of PA are spectacular, not to mention old train cars, model trains, mini golf, coffee, and ice cream. But seriously: DINOSAURS!! Delicious iced latte (whole milk, coffee flavored (no syrup)). Smooth and delicious with no burnt or bitterness. So good I got a second one after checking out the dinosaurs and train cars. The depot building is beautiful and the bathroom was actually lovely. Friendly service. The only thing I would add would be a changing table and hooks for coats/bags in the bathroom. This is worth getting off I-80 to see. This is the about the Aegis coffee at Doolittle's Depot. read more

Worst service ever!!! They decided they were no longer serving 15 minutes before closing and left us standing at the counter for 5 minutes with four small children who were promised ice cream after their dinner. We spent $100 on dinner there and will never go back. The person working there said she had to work up the courage to come tell us that we couldn't have ice cream even though they were technically open for 15 minutes. It was a birthday celebration, too. Nice job, Dr Doolittle. You're customer service lives up to your name - Do-Little. Sorry to inconvenience you. read more

Definitely just ok... This place is really cool for kids, but lacks a bit of clean up. Dinosaur exhibit was cool, but some of the things didn't work and the trees make it difficult for anyone 6 foot. Food was actually really good, but the lady at the bar seemed a bit overwhelmed and complained openly that someone didn't show. Overall not terrible, but certainly some opportunities. read more

An oasis on I-80! Great ice cream & an impressive menu. Cool train cars. Diner cars, cabooses, parlor cars, a dinky, a beautifully done station filled with historic railroad artifacts & memorabilia. So glad we stopped! read more

Total random find but super cool and nice people. Great place to explore and ice cream is delicious.

This is a pretty interesting spot with lots of this for kids to enjoy. The food is average but filling, the diner is kitschy and cute. My daughter loved the iced coffee from the cafe, and we were blown away by the dinosaur exhibit and the trains. Service was good and the whole place is less than a mile away from I-80. read more

The food is really good I love the onion rings, the cheeseburgers and their DuBois hotdogs. You honestly can't beat the price very affordable.. read more

When visiting family in the area, we frequently stop here for a bite to eat. This is an all welcome type of place. Fun little things for the kids (and those of us who forget we are adults), photo ops, great casual atmosphere, and ICE CREAM! It's an order at the window and seat yourself type of place. Quick and friendly service with generous portions. read more

Holy Mac and cheese bites at a little hole in the wall! I've always gotten off this exit to refill and sometimes spend the night at the holiday inn, but never have I ever made it to this little restaurant until yesterday. I tried the pizza burger and the Mac and cheese bites and those bites are some of the best Mac bites I've ever eaten in my whole entire life. Period. read more

A great place to visit when you're in the DuBois, PA. The authentic train dining cars are just one of the many places that an experienced eye made sure it feels like you are stepping back in time. Dinosaurs are a recurring theme as you and your children explore the area and stop for a game of mini golf. read more

Great food for Lunch the have specials daily and dinner and Great ice cream and milk shakes

THE BESTTTTTTTT AND SUCH great prices! Our new favorite place to take our kids. The ice cream is so yummy! Mmmmm cookie dough hit the spot!

Best deal around for taking your family for ice cream!! --》NEVER get a "large" in a cone. If you think you want a large, ask that half be put in a dish. Lots of snacky and appetizer type food. The daily specials are a STEAL. It's usually fairly busy, but the staff is generally attentive. Lots of things on the property to see if you have antsy little ones waiting. I'll often bring down a gluten- free pizza from Railcar Pizza because most of the food is deep fried and/ or battered. read more

Waited over an hour for dinner. Ended up just leaving and paying for drinks. Horrible! Waitress was sweet, but poor girl had no help.

This is a great place to take the family while traveling. Soft serve and hand scooped ice cream, sundaes, shakes, splits at a price that anyone can afford. They also have a putt putt course and several full size trains to explore. Recommend going off the beaten path for this one read more

I was with a party of 6 when I stopped here the other night. I've been to the place before for birthdays and mini-golf a time or two, but I don't think I have ever been here to sit inside and have a meal. It was pretty cool. The tables and chairs looked like they were from the 1950's or 60's (but in really good shape) and the decorations were neat. Outside were several train cars, a replica train station, some farm animals and wood carvings. I ordered ahead and got to the restaurant just before my food was ready. I got a foot-long, fries and fountain drink and was very happy with how everything looked and tasted. GREAT PRICE too. I'll have to remember to stop here more often. read more

Dubois Dogs are the best ever! Doolittle prospers at everything he puts his hand to, he has the Midas Touch!

Food is always good and the ice cream is amazing. Prices are exceptional! Love going here whether it is for a meal or just a treat.

This is a great place to stop and have a quick lunch!!! And an ice cream cone. The chili was awesome, and the perogis were so good. Ill definitely be back. read more

The best Hot Dogs and Onion rings in DuBois! Milkshakes are a great dessert after your meal. My grandkids love this place. Don't forget the trains and dinosaurs! The staff is very friendly and efficient. You won't wait long for your meal. Don't forget root beer with your dogs read more

I love coming to Doolittles when I go back to Pennsylvania with my dad to visit our family in Falls Creek and Dubois. I'm currently in San Diego but I tell all the people out here about Doolittle's and all the wonderful establishments back in Pennsylvania Thank you for all the yummy food and the awesome things to look at! read more

We always go up to the window, never been inside. We're like this place, but I have never encountered one friendly person at the windows. They always act like you are bothering them and the girl working the window today slammed or shut twice with all her force and was nasty. read more

I absolutely love their bacon cheeseburger! It's the best in DuBois & always get a PB milkshake to go with it! Can recommend enough!

If you are a train fanatic or just want some great food this is the place to go. All original train cars set in a great atmosphere. Come and see the great cars and dine in the 1900s. More great things to come in the train area. read more

We get take out from Dr. Doolittle's on a regular basis. The food is good and it's really a neat little place if you eat there. I'd love to give 5 stars but every single time I get take out, something is forgotten in our order. I definitely recommend taking the time to go through your order before you leave. Which is hard because they always tie the bags shut. BUT the prices are hard to beat! And they have the original Bailey's hot dog sauce on the DuBois Dog! read more

Rail car concept is a nice idea however the service was the worst I have experienced. It took an hour an a half to get our food and when we did get our food the orders were all incorrect. I would make another choice. read more

Dr Doolittle s has came a long way! I love all their food and ice creams and their is speedy service! You will never have to wait long! The employees are also very polite and helpful! I have went here a lot and they have never got my order wrong! But, you may ask why I'm not giving them five stars? Well I'm only giving them 4 because, their needs to be better parking up front and In not dirt areas! Paving the parking lot would be helpful! I go their a lot with my grandma and the stones get under and in our shoes and is very painful and I worry about her falling. Another this is the air conditioning in the main room get wayyyyyy to cool and it's freezing even in the winter! Lastly the girls restroom was not working so we had to use the men's and that didn't even lock! And when the lady's restroom did work their was flys all over the place! But other then that I love this restaurant and will continue to go there! read more

Awesome place! The fast food menu is large and too cheap for how good it was. A family of 4 could eat and drink for under 20 bucks. The ice cream is equally Good and affordable. If fast food is not for you, there is a restaurant attached, where they serve you in a rail road car. Both are surrounded by attractions for family fun, put put golf, laser tag.... Back to the fast food, there hot dogs are larger sided and only cost 49 cents! Their Du Bois dog has a wonderful special sauce, and it costs 75 cents!!!!! read more

A perfect stop minutes off I-80 for anyone who loves trains and the railroad! Great food - the Reuben had the most tender, well seasoned corned beef I have ever tasted. Can't wait for the brewpub to open. read more
