    cup of House Coffee

    awesome giant space for a coffee shop. Cup of coffee was quality and the chai latte was well made! Easily connected to WiFi and put in a work shift for a couple hours. Clean restrooms. Easy street parking outside. Enjoyed it. Thank you!

    Great and friendly service! The inside was very cozy, and we loved sitting by the fireplace. Maybe wish there was a scannable menu, it was hard to see the menu posted. Our drinks were also excellent.

    Service was great. Great view of the shop from above as I sipped coffee upstairs. Thanks guys!

    Live music, Saturday night. Open until 10pm...don't know why yelp says it's closed on Saturdays.

    Having spent the year traveling the country, large cities and small towns, I was rather taken back by Flood City Cafe. This is not the type of coffee/panini shop you'd expect to find in a large city - it's better. The first thing that strikes you is the ambiance. Two story tall ceiling, gentle but adequate lighting, open floor plan, not crowded allowing plenty of room to walk as well as sit. There is second level to the cafe with four leather chairs for lounging, reading, sipping on coffee, or whathaveyou. A dedicated stage for live music that fits comfortably into a recess in the room. The menu is pretty decent. Serving breakfast, sandwiches, salad, paninis, soup and other sides. Menu is akin panera bread. They also have bagals, cakes, muffins and other pastries from a local bakery. Generally, a great place for adults, young and old, to come and chill, read, have a meal or snack, listen to live music, and feel warm and relaxed. DRIVE THROUGH ALSO!

    A yummy Dagwood sandwich!

    Ended up here before a concert at the War Memorial because we couldn't get into our first choice,…read moreScott's by Dam. We didn't have a reservation but they were able to seat us after a few minutes. The hostess mentioned that service would be faster if we chose the buffet since we told her we were going to the concert. We arrived at 5:30 and the concert was at 7:00 so we thought we had plenty of time. We ordered cocktails and our food at the same time. I opted for the buffet, which I could access immediately, and my friend chose a Caesar salad and a cup of soup. We waited about 20 minutes for the drinks to come and thought maybe they'd bring her food at the same time. But that didn't arrive until 6:20. For a cup of soup that they scooped out of a pot and a simple salad. Unfortunately the salad was inedible when it came because the romaine was limp and drenched in dressing. To their credit, when my friend pointed out that she couldn't eat it, the server immediately offered to take it off the check. We eventually got out of the restaurant at 6:45 with enough time for our 5 minute walk to the venue. The buffet was okay, nothing stellar. I knew going in that buffets aren't going to be as good as off the menu items, but I took a look at it before I ordered and thought it would be ok. It was only $17, so it was not a expensive gamble. Nice salad greens tossed with Cucumber, tomato and red onions plus some pickled red cabbage as a topper. Hot foods were mashed potatoes and gravy, fried chicken , Swedish Meatballs, and mixed sautéed vegetables. It was all good tasting and I was satisfied with it, just not wowed. My friend thought the soup was more French Onion than French mushroom. But she liked the ooey gooey cheese on top. Our cocktails were from the seasonal menu and were probably the best part of our meals. I had a Harvest Star and she had a Pilgrims Punch. Mine was bourbon based and hers, tequila. And for $7.00 very well priced. Because of the lag in service and the poor quality of the Caesar salad, I am rating this a 3 star experience. The restaurant itself was clean and comfortable. The decor was typical hotel restaurant, low lighting and spacious seating areas.

My sister and I brought my mother for a sit down tea room experience. I shared a finger food tier with my mother. It was lacking in appearance, taste, and quality. Just a bunch of random mundane things you'd find in a dollar general and not fresh. There was basically no wait for our order. It was very quick. Waitress brought one plate for two people lol. And I had to ask for the tea list. Young girl seemed put out the moment we came in. But tried to be more polite towards the end. She never asked how we were. We stayed for about 35m. They use HT tea which I'm not a fan of and they use only one tea bag for a shared 16-24oz tea pot. My mug was a little dirty and stained. We had to ask for sugar. My sister said her Ruben sandwich was great and her ice tea was fine. Disclosure: we're all from a large city and maybe this is high quality for this little town. One of the biggest off putting part was seeing the naked hairy arm pits of a large man while trying to enjoy a special semi eloquent daughter/mother date. We dressed up a little and are not loud people. There really should be a certain dress code and volume control (large man was part of a large loud party) for a "tea room". I would not return or recommend.

Despite it being in Pennsylvania, it throws off a distinct hillbilly atmosphere. The usual signs about Jesus, Christmas and, of course, patriotism were in abundance. My party ordered a variety of dishes and I opted for the roast beef sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy. Sorry to say, the food was just adequate. The beef was overdone and the gravy had the sheen of the bottled gravies at the grocery store. The mashed potatoes were the star of the show, however, as they were very good. The hamburger and pancakes ordered by others get similar reviews. It was a hamburger and tasted like one. The pancakes, being hard to screw up, were just pancakes. This is a cash-only place, so come prepared to be vilified for wanting to pay with plastic. The prices were lower than the norm but that did little to make me feel better upon leaving. Despite the dearth of customers when we were there, the service was also lacking. I had to seek out help to get a refill on my iced tea and we waited a while to pay...with cash. I can't really give this place any additional stars. Stop here if you absolutely can't wait to eat.
