I always give restaurants a chance to respond but it appears that they only respond to positive reviews. Went there on a trip about 4 weeks ago and it was just a bad experience. Not because the food was bad but because the service and the server were terrible. Not even going into detail as it does not matter because it appears recently that unless you positively respond your review will not be given the time of day. For the money they charge and the lack of enthusiasm from the server and the amount of time it actually took to get the food, then you can def do better and spend less. Limited menu, high prices, very unfriendly and no personality servers who lack the ability to get your order correct, and takes forever on slow nights to get your food. As I doubt anyone will get back to me from the restaurant it just easier to go elsewhere and they are not getting another chance. read more

The restaurant has a killer vibe. Definitely a great spot to grab a drink as the beer list is very extensive. I really liked the outdoor personal igloos for dining. The food was ok. The Mac and cheese had a good creaminess to it. The chicken was just a slab of breast. The burger was ok, the bottom bun was soggy and the patty was a little dense. Kids pizza was pretty standard. Food is good for the price. read more

See all

I was in the mood for some comfort food, I was there for the weekend, and my wife and I were fighting colds. I ordered fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, my wife salad with chicken strips. It was delivered by door dash and you never know what to expect. But it was hot not dried out, crispy and delicious. Wife's salad was fresh crispy and the chicken uniquely flavored. I understand it's a popular place and next time we'll go there in person. read more

Food and atmosphere are amazing. I highly recommend, desserts and brisket were great

I have no reason to give less than 4 stars. Damn near perfect food. I'm a big fan of the stuffed meatloaf. I usually eat take out so I can't comment on dining in. read more

--Food was delicious and hot upon arrival! --Really good menu selection and the MASHED POTATOES WERE DELECTABLE --I'd recommend to any and every one!!! read more

Great food with a cool atmosphere! The service is always great. Filling the space so I can get to 85 characters read more

My two sisters, my mother and step mom, two teens and 3 girls youngest is 8, went here to celebrate my daughter's 21st birthday. My daughter and I used to frequent here for special occasions. The hostess was very friendly. The server wasn't. She came over, said, oh sorry, didn't know you were here or I would have brought water. Ok, no big deal. She failed to ID the newly 21 year old. She acted like we were an inconvenience. Apps were brought before our drinks. Had to ask for steak knives. Had to ask another employee for boxes. Had to go to the bar to get a shot for the birthday girl. Had to ask for the checks at the host stand. I understand that an 11 top can be frustrating, but it doesn't have to be. read more

I've been here twice. First time was early December 2021 on a Sunday evening and then Feb 27 in the evening. On the first visit my date and I shared some appetizers and we had a few beers. The apps were "delish" as the hipsters say and the few different beers were good. Service was great; "on point", again, as the hipsters say. Second visit I took my dad and my daughters. Dad got fish and chips. It looked fine and Dad said it was good. Now that I've seen the type of fries served here I know that I would always avoid them. Perhaps if they had the non-coated fries, or better yet, thick steak fries as an option, I'd try the fries. One daughter had the salmon and said it was the best she's ever had. It did look good - served on a wood plank. My other daughter had Al Pastor salad. Very good. I had the meatloaf. As the hipsters would say, "solid". I would use a more proper word like "delicious" or "wonderful". Two slices of meatloaf with cheesy mashed potatoes in between, topped with green peppers and onions. Asparagus on the side and a side salad. Bleu cheese dressing was very good. The best part is I had leftovers for the next and they were still awesome. The service was fine. More than adequate but not intrusive. If, for the love of God, you think that servers need to attend you like you're a king in a medieval castle, please adjust your attitude, especially during these trying times. I think their menu changes from time to time because the end of February menu looks different from what I remember in early December but I may be wrong. I see a lot of negative comments but many of them are from 2020, possibly during early covid. If you had a bad experience you might want to try again. I know I'll go back. read more

I try to always be a positive person! During this Covid-19 social distancing I have missed my friends and my family along with everything that used to feel normal! In an effort to try to stay positive David and I decided to have a date night. I picked the Restaurant for curb side pick up and he picks the movie to watch at home. So I picked Funcks in Leola. See food picture... I Picked up our order and the side was missing, fish and chips did not look like the dinner on their online menu. When I called to speak with them they told they ran out of the side we wanted that was it. No other options offered. All this cost $30.74. I feel ripped off! I understand things are difficult but this is not what they presented or what I expected and they don't seem to care. Here's my thought what reason would I have to go there again when this is over? read more

Funck's Restaurant - Leola - Is this what it looked like on the menu? Did you care to offer us a different side when you didn't have sweet potato fries? Do you care? - New American Near Me - Leola, Pennsylvania

Friendly staff, delicious food... one of my favorite places to dine out, sample unique cocktails, and have a really nice time! read more

Funck's Restaurant - Leola - Seafood Tacos, Caramel Apple Martini, Moscow Mule. - New American Near Me - Leola, Pennsylvania

Food was absolutely horrible- won't be back. Outside is neat so would be fine for a coctail and maybe fried food but nothing else

We go there often because we love the incredible selection of craft beers and the food is always delicious !! We usually sit at a high top table near the bar or at the bar itself and it's great to be remembered by the servers !! Always clean and welcoming , we've only had one awful service there and I believe that young woman is no longer there ( yay !!) The burgers are delicious, the chili is tasty and the we always love the mozzarella planks . Funck's is always on our favorites list !!! read more

My wife and I, along with a friend of ours, decided to check this place out after talking about coming here for over a year. Our server was friendly enough but did make an underhanded snide comment about how many soda refills I was drinking. We started with boneless wings. They were ok but not worth the price. My wife had the cranberry and turkey wrap, which she liked but commented it wasn't worth the money. Our friend had a tomato crock soup that he would like to have again. He got coleslaw on the side, but said it wasn't worth the $3.75 extra. I had the fried chicken. I enjoyed it very much. However, like everything else we had, the taste did not equal the price tag. So, I'd give a 4 for taste, a 1 for price, and a 2.5 star average, rounding it up to 3. This place might be better suited for special occasions. We also might have thought everything was better if we were drinkers, which we aren't. I'd come back to this place but I would be more selective of appetizers, drinks, and be more aware of the prices of everything. read more

Came for lunch with my mother and had an enjoyable experience. The food was good and the service was attentive. We shared the nachos and they were great. We each got a burger. I'm a vegetarian so I was able to get a beyond patty on mine and it was great. Some places don't know how to use them well but it was crispy and seasoned well. The chips that come with the burgers are really yummy! Will def come again to try more of the menu as there were multiple vegetarian options and some I know the hubby would love They have pop up igloos outside that look very fun! Will definitely request one of those next time read more

I'd give a 5 but some of the waitresses/host are slightly rude. Other than that, I ABSOLUTELY love this place. The food is always so good, the one waitress is my favorite. Every time we come in we try and ask for her. She is on time and always checking on us. This is our go to date night. Let alone the drinks are amazing, the Brussels are like back home . Would highly recommend this place to anyone! read more

There were good things, and not so good things about Funck's. On the good side, the outdoor seating area was really nice, with fire pits blazing. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. Our appetizer, Emily's cheese fries, was amazing. But none of us loved our main courses. My son really didn't like the Jameson Whiskey Mac & Cheese. It was more creamy than cheesy and had an odd taste (maybe the Jameson)--not at all what he was expecting. I tried it and was glad I didn't get it. So that should be a warning to kids; it doesn't take like mac & cheese. My wife had the $20 crab mac & cheese and liked it but didn't love it. My daughter liked her Turkey Pretzel Melt but not the homemade potato chips that came with it. I went with the honey bourbon pork chop on mashed potatoes. It was OK, but honestly was way too sweet. The sauce was on everything, even the potatoes, so it was a very sweet dinner, not really what I wanted. I don't think I'll ever order anything with honey glaze again. So, it was a nice enough experience eating here, we just all chose poorly. read more

My wife and I ate here last week. We had excellent service. I'm giving 3 stars for value. My wife got fish and chips for $19. It was a very small piece of fish with 2 to 3 servings of french fries. Actually, that small fish and a normal amount of fries is a healthier option but at a more reasonable price. read more

Excellent find while recently visiting the area. The food was truly delicious, the drinks were excellent, and we had very friendly waitstaff both times! The outdoor patio is so beautiful. If I lived locally, this would be my goto spot! read more

My Girlfriend and I were visiting from out of town and wanted a solid lunch spot. This place was perfect. The food was excellent, the service and staff were excellent, and there were so many options to choose from for food and beverages! Highly recommend this place! read more

Second visit here, sat on a outside covered area, very pleasant. Outstanding selection of craft beers and ciders. Wonderful pub food, excellent and cheery service. read more

Stopped in for lunch. My husband had the meatloaf platter and it was delicious. I had a salad that was a little boring with very minimal toppings. It was supposed to have pumpkinseed, goats cheese etc. and looked like a big bowl of raw spinach. I was able to identify some of the toppings but would not order a salad again. The place has 100 taps for beer and wine and a really nice outdoor space. read more

We have eaten here before and decided to take our out of town guests here last night. We called before to make reservations and were told no reservations were needed. We got there (party of 5) and were told a 40 minute wait . We waited patiently and after 40 minutes and others being seated before I asked and was told our table was being cleaned and some of the people had reservations!! 10 minutes later when I asked again why people were being seated before us that got there after us the hostess rudely told me they had reservations. I will not ever go hear again. I was trying to show our guests how hospitable our county is and that did not happen! read more

Enjoyed a meal last week. Lobster tacos were terrific! Super delicious fries. Great beer list. Good pub food! Great service.

Came here on a whim one night as it was near our airbnb. We were seated quickly, and there was a lot of open tables for a Friday night. They had live music, which was really good and an open fire outside as well as heat lamps. We ordered flights, which I felt were a good value, as they seemed a bit larger than regular flights. The wings were good--not my favorite as they were breaded. I ordered the hot wings as well as the hot garlic wings and they tasted the same despite the chunks of garlic. Fries were breaded as well, which I am not a fan of. Slow service kind of hampered the night but it was an okay time, nothing superb. read more

Funck's Restaurant - Leola - New American Near Me - Leola, Pennsylvania

Honestly this place has so much potential but the food is just average at best. The "outdoor" bar has so many options and was an awesome place to grab a drink. The outdoor seating was awesome but the food just seems like the type of food you'd get at a chain restaurant. If they find a way to improve the food, this place would easily be my go to place in the area. read more

The bang bang shrimp tacos were way too sweet and didn't have much in the way of veggies. Sweet tacos don't work. The pretzel appetizer was overly dry and the dip was too salty. I did enjoy the quesadilla. Overall, this place is just average and they need to rethink some of these menu items. I was also surprised they're still swiping credit cards- time to update to chip readers. They're opening themselves up to Point of Sale skimming attacks. read more

Just made another visit after a 2 year hiatus. Always had a problem with the food. The atmosphere, beer selection & service is good. My standby adequate meal selection in the past has been the Bourbon bacon burger, tonite I finally found the bacon in the current offering, wait for it, it was a few bacon bits mixed in with the sautéed onions for only $13, American $. Give me a break!!!! Can I give less than 1 star, I guess no read more

Was quite surprised to see a place of this size in downtown Leola. We stopped by for lunch. The food was excellent and the service was very good. I would highly recommend this place if you happen to be stopping by through Amish country. Only drawback I did not see a place to hook up your horse and buggy read more

Thank goodness this restaurant is back open. We've been ordering take out from here since this pandemic began. It's back to outdoor service and we have finally been able to see our wonderful servers Diamond and Nick for the first time in months! The food is amazing and the service is fantastic! I am a vegetarian and I have many options as does my carnivore husband. Hey tourists...don't miss this gem. Food, atmosphere, and service is amazing! Love it bunches! read more

A friend recommended this place and I'm so glad we came. Cozy and clean atmosphere. The bartender was friendly and informative. Next time we'll have to try the food. read more

I usually give a restaurant more than a few visits before posting, this one has had many more than that because I genuinely like the place & have wanted to give it a good review. I'm in PA often & have a few places that are "go to" places for me. Both the inside & outside bars are well stocked & have a great beer selection. The outside bar is very spacious & their patio is beautiful. I have always enjoyed the food, never had a meal there I didn't like. I have had many different servers during my visit, but one server in particular, Anqun, always seems to to draw out the service to an absolute crawl - especially when there's hardly anyone else in the place. There can be 1 other table & it will take him 10 minutes to approach the table & another 10 for you to get your drinks & another 10 for him to get back to the table for your order. Anqun, you are personable & friendly enough when you're at the table, but it feels like a passive aggressive thing when you are our server, especially when you wait on others that come in after we do. We are kind & have never gotten salty with your service, we tip btwn 25 & 30%, more since COVID hit, no reason for poor service. If you don't enjoy serving, find something you do enjoy & don't put your customers through it. Funks gets 2 stars because I have enjoyed the food & past service, sadly, Anqun gets negative stars because his service is consistently poor. read more

Food and prices are good. the outdoor seating is a beautiful setting! But eating indoors is very loud by the bar- too loud to even hear each other for conversation. read more

Had the Baja fish tacos and they were amazing. Also enjoyed their baked tomato bisque with pretzel croutons and smoked Asiago cheese. Server was very attentive and friendly. Great overall experience. read more

I can't say anything about the food but the service is absolutely terrible. My wife and I decided to stop randomly on a Saturday afternoon. We watched our server talk to another table for roughly 10 minutes before we left. read more

Had lunch at Funck's today. Server was good. Food was OK. 2 sandwiches, fries and coffee was $44.00. Thought that to be a bit much. Saw the reason on the bill. $3.50 for each of the coffees. And it was on the bitter side. Might return sometime but would opt for water rather than coffee. read more

I called the restaurant 2 weeks in advance to make a reservation for 8 people in the evening. When we got to the restaurant they said "we are waiting for a table to be cleared." We waited close to an hour and still weren't seated. We were not offered waters or any updates on how long it would be. Very disappointed in the fact that we called and didn't even get a table. If you can't fulfill reservations please don't take them! Will not be back! read more

Very expensive food. Miller lite is around $4. Dbl capt coke is $13.50. Overrated food. Ordered the "Brisket melt." It was definitely roast beef/chuck roast. Will not return. read more

My favorite place to get drinks because they have a wide selection of alcohol to choose from and it's not overly obnoxiously loud. I can tolerate the noise level. I love the atmosphere of the outdoor bar and patio. Some nights there are live music which makes it relaxing. Monday's are burger day?! Haha $6.99 any burger with fries; the burgers are pretty yummy too for the price. Downside: Came Saturday night, not knowing if anyone was seating so we waited. Got tired of waiting so we had to find a worker to seat us. Don't understand if the kitchen closes at 12am though. This happened twice! read more

We enjoyed a casual meal here after a busy day. Wide menu selection. While we are not beer drinkers, we noticed that their selection of drafts is extensive. read more
