We found this little coffee shop right outside of the market and decided to try it on our way out! There was a long line when we arrived as well as when we got into line! The service was fast and friendly. A lot of the customers were ordering the limited time smores drink, which looked SO good! I opted to order a basic drink after eating so much at the smorgasbord! I ordered a large iced vanilla latte with extra milk. The coffee was really good, they made it perfectly and it wasn't too strong of a taste. The added vanilla was really good too! The prices were fair for a coffee shop, and if you're in shopping around the area, definitely give them a try! I'm sure they will have some amazing drinks for the fall season!

What an amazing place to stop by after eating breakfast at the buffet. The nitro cold brew with…read morecaramel drizzle is a MUST. The cold brew flavor is so perfect and not bitter at all.

The next day, I tried the steel-cut oatmeal, and it was the best I've ever had. I'm a big fan of baked oatmeals and granola parfaits, but the flavor of this oatmeal and granola was a home run. I'd go back just for that meal.

Hey friends! Of course, we had to stop and get some good ole Amish donuts while in town…read more I was so excited to pull-up and see the bakery attached to a small farm. Freshness guaranteed! They offer pastries, breads, jams/jellies & more! This quaint little bakery is small but mighty. Service is great and donuts are even better. Every donut was fresh, flavorful and not overly sweet. We also purchased fresh grape jelly. I'm never going to store bought jelly LOL! Free parking. Definitely add this to your list when in town. And make sure to say hi to their horses out-front! I hope you enjoy.

Hey friends! My boyfriend wanted to spend his birthday at America's largest buffet. And let's just…read moresay we are already planning our return trip! With over 200 feet of food, Shady Maple is an unforgettable experience. From the sweet treats to made-to-order meat stations, this is now my favorite buffet. The made-to-order meat stations feature cheesesteaks, burgers, sausages and steaks! All cooked to your liking, right in front of you, how cool! The buffet bars are stacked with salad bars, seafood, soups, sides, fried food, baked food, you name it! I truly enjoyed the range of options here. There's plentyyyyy to drink. Slushie machines, coffee, soda stations, tea/lemonade, fresh milk from their farms and milkshakes machines! The sweet treats are endless; pies, cakes, build-your-ice cream bowls and more! Customer service: Okay, not super friendly Prices: $33/person on a weekday. Plus free birthday meals! Plenty free parking Atmosphere: family-oriented Make sure you also check their gift shop on the lower level. I hope you enjoy!

People hate on smorgasbords for all sorts of reasons. Yes its not 5 star Michelin food (its not…read moresupposed to be). BUT it has a VARIETY of food and gives you a taste of Lancaster County. If its your birthday you get a free meal when you go with someone purchasing. To be honest, compared to other Lancaster County Buffets, their price is the most reasonable! I actually prefer their breakfast Buffet, but we recently went for dinner. Tons of seating, we went on a Friday Dinner Rush and it only took us about 10 minutes to get seated. Just some of my top picks and highlights: Steaks made to order Milkshake station The dessert bar Icee machine Potato pie Brown Butter noodles Fried chicken Corn casserole And don't forget the PIE! If you are visiting, just do it and get a taste of Lancaster County! Two huge aisles of food with different items going each direction, check both! Every night has a special, seafood night, steak night, etc...pick your favorite!

I love Crawford Organics! What amazing people. The produce we have been getting the past 5 years…read morehas always been top quality. We have tried a few other CSA's and although some are more flashy with huge offerings of "extras", we never had the overall quality found with this CSA. We were so impressed that we have hosted a drop site for the past few seasons and it just works out so well and everyone is super friendly. It looks like they are updating their systems for the Summer 2016 season to offer the customer more choice and feedback (custom ordering?). Something to definitely check out. We also can supplement with more of their produce at our favorite stand (Country Lane Poultry & Produce Thurs-Sat) at the Fairgrounds Farmers Market in Reading. http://www.crawfordorganics.com/

We switched to Crawford Organics after a season with Greensgrow. It is an all-organic,…read morefamily-operated CSA that delivers to a couple of locations in Philly. We've picked up at Bodhi Coffee on Headhouse as well as Sweet Freedom Bakery during two separate seasons. What we've loved: wonderful organic produce, on-time delivery with flexible pick-up (Sweet Freedom would hold our box until the next day when we needed), wonderful newletters with pictures and recipes, and a knowledgeable response to customer inquiries. Also, we really enjoyed the dried goods that came in our box sometimes: popcorn, cornbread mix, and a dried tomato thing that rehydrated into a delicious pesto. What could be better: More variety. We got so many potatoes and sweet potatoes that we had to constantly give half away. We got lettuce (a head or two) every week, so I had to get really creative with recipes (btw, Lettuce Soup is delicious!). However, the website says that the Crawford family would like to continue adding more crops, so I suspect that this will improve as they diversify the farm. Fewer Herbs. The herbs were a nice touch, but the portions were too large. I really struggled to use as much cilantro as was given to us, even though I put it in everything AND froze some. Same for other herbs - plenty to use, to freeze, or to dry, but really could be smaller bunches in order to be enjoyed fresh. Discount for Returners. We missed the Early Bird discount because we thought we were moving and hence couldn't renew right away. It would have been nice to get a "second season" discount as a gesture for loyalty. I would (and have!) recommend this CSA to anyone looking for organic, affordable produce in Philly. If you haven't ever tried a CSA before, you can confidently try this one!

It feels like I am eating off of the plates in an elementary school cafeteria. You can also get the buffet to go and pay by the pound. I think this spot is really for the locals since why would a tourist not go to the smorgasbord!?

It's definitely a cute place - smallish, but with lots of character and good food. They have a no nonsense espresso machine and they made me an upside-down dry cappuccino without any hesitation. If I lived in Ephrata I could see this becoming my main go-to for my cappuccinos. Service was friendly but a little slow. It could be our timing was bad, and to their credit the cook warned us that our order (we split one burger) would take 30 or more minutes. That seemed excessive to us but who knows, maybe they just received 10 DoorDash orders right before we arrived. Times like this really separate the good from the great restaurants. Great service would have been to not only apologize, but to also offer us a free espresso drink or an appetizer or a dessert to hold us over. Instead we had to ask for water two or three times. Over all, our experience was enjoyable, but they should consider hiring one or two more crew members.
