Have been to Vortex many different times and they never disappoint!…read moreThis evening we sat out on the patio, and there was a beautiful breeze. Inside they had someone playing the guitar. So relaxing. During the winter, we were there for trivia several times. That was always fun! Now the food and beverage... Their pizza is awesome. Doesn't matter what kind you get, it's delicious. The beer is also wonderful. There is a wide range to choose from, and my boys have liked them all. I've always had good service, and the place is always clean. In addition, it's located right off the Rail Trail in New Freedom. Great place to stop after a walk or a bike ride!

They have something for every palate, and I appreciate that they rotate styles so often. My personal favorites are the Polar Vortex IPA (hoppy, bitter, and seriously bold) and the Coal Car Snickerdoodle Coffee Stout--which is a phenomenal, dark dessert beer that's perfect for the colder months. The taproom is huge and welcoming, with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It's truly family and dog-friendly, which makes it an easy choice for a Saturday afternoon. Pro tip: If you're coming from northern MD, hop on the NCR Trail near the brewery. It's a great spot to hit after a bike ride or a long walk. The team here is friendly, the glassware is always clean, and the atmosphere is relaxed.

It has a lovely porch for reading outside in warmer weather, as well as some cozy seating inside. And the selection is excellent. They take care to stock books across a wide range of genres for all types of readers and interests. The store promotes a welcoming and inclusive environment for everyone, and the employees are always friendly and helpful. On my most recent visit I scored a bargain from the sale cart and got a hardcover on my TBR list for 20% off. They also have a nice selection of gift items and stationary. A great place to spend an afternoon browsing through all the rooms.

I make my body scrub too, so I like to try a few others to check out the scents and ingredients.

Decent dispensary out of York. Not the best imo in terms of pricing or layout/interior design, but…read morenot a bad dispensary either. Never had an issue with their products or their "cashiers" (for lack of positional term), only issues I've had is on the website (which, coming from someone who works at a F500 corporation, they more-than-likely have no control over). It can get a bit busy at times with there only being 5-7 seats in the front, but the longest I've waited even when it was packed was maybe 15-20 minutes.

Of special note, on usually the last Thursday of the month, they host a great live music showcase featuring original songwriters, which makes for such a fun, laid-back evening. What really sets this place apart is how well it adapts year-round. In the winter, everything closes up cozy and heated, and when the weather's nice, they roll up the garage doors on the taproom to let the fresh air in. Out back, there's a spacious outdoor party venue plus the taproom and another group area available for private gatherings. The staff are always friendly and happy to give great recommendations for similar beers, and they'll even let you try a sample before you commit to a full or even a half pour. One of my favorite beers is Into the Limelight, but it is on rotation as they usually switch up what's on tap fairly often. It's also incredibly family-friendly. Kids can say hi to the farm animals, and in the fall there's a corn maze and various other seasonal activities. There's even a small playground onsite. Great music, great atmosphere, and something for everyone in the family. Highly recommend checking it out!

Where do I even start with this place... let me tell you the positives. Arguably the best pricing…read morein the county, you can leave feeling good about the price you paid for your product. Other than that? Not really great. Firstly, the entire layout of the place (both interior and exterior, including the parking lot) is terrible. Compared to the other Organic Remedies I've been to, I feel stressed just trying to pull through the parking lot. To get out of their parking lot is hell too with the traffic. Compared to other dispensaries, the interior design in extremely bland, like a run-down bank, with the interior layout being just as confusing as the parking lot. The one time I went there, it was not a friendly experience either. Seemed like everyone I interacted with either hated their job, wanted the shift to end or just weren't people-persons. My final conclusion: if you are strapped and looking for a discount, OR is the way to go. If you're not too worried about the pricing and would rather have a friendly, relaxing experience, I'd go elsewhere.

We didn't go to the outdoor part of the brewery, preferring to stay in the air-conditioning. It's got a cute indoor seating area, and was very popular with families and friends alike. The service was really helpful. You order directly at the bar, you wait for your drinks there, and any food is taken out to you. My dad got the cider and really liked it, but I felt that the star of the show was the mango blue raspberry slushy. Honestly, I should've gotten another one because it was super delicious. It was like a superstar of a drink. It was also very popular among all the girls wearing cute summer dresses, who I'm guessing were there for an engagement party or something. Most of my party got burgers, although my mom got the chicken pesto sandwich and said it was great. We all loved our burgers. I got the bacon Gouda burger, which I highly recommend. We also got some of their fries. Fantastic! Honestly, I couldn't believe the food was that good. What a great place to stumble across!
