    An old style diner The Knight & Day Diner may not look like an old style diner from their parking lot. But inside you will find one of the better Grilled Nut Sticky Buns in Lancaster County. The room is large and comfortable. The service is adequate.

    Despite the not as many 5 star reviews, this place came as a recommendation, from a young lady at Bath& Body Works. Ive learned in traveling, to always ask locals of the area recommendations. The atmosphere, decor , and menu was a bit overwhelming; and amazed me on how many different paletes and choices were covered. Special shout out to my waiter: on July 3, 2025, evening dinner for his top notch customer service . Ordered steak pani, with a side salad. The pani was made to order, salad was enormous, with all my favorite fixings, and rolls on the side. This diner deserves all the awards, for the last 14 years. To find a diner, open 24 hours is unheard of these days. Will defintly return, next time in the area.

    Food is consistently good portions, flavor, and variety. Staff is pleasant and efficient. They can seat larger parties. Decor is attractive. Ordered the chicken cordon bleu with mashed potatoes and veggies of the day this time. Was able to have 2 more servings from the takeout. Disabled accessible.

    Always excellent portions and great breakfast options here. The tomato, basil omelette is excellent as is the yogurt fruit bowl which has granola as well for a nice crunch!

    Literally THE PLACE to go for a quick comfort bite in Lititz. Took all our friends here the morning after an overnight stay. So tasty and the menu is a novel. Also went on Valentine's Day, and while there was a line out the door, we got served in less than five minutes. Must go!!

    I have loved this place since my first visit. Breakfast is potentially my favorite meal and Knight and Day reminds me why. First of all, the service is excellent. The people are so kind and your food comes out surprisingly fast. The menu is almost more than you can handle- as my biggest issue with this place is I never know what to get- but the meals never fail no matter what. In addition, I always have some to take home, as the description of this diner fits it perfectly, stating "generous portions." Prices aren't bad at all- especially compared to nearly any other diner in this day and age. The inside is very nice and comfortable with many booths, seats and nice decorations. They even sell stored desserts (which I have honestly never tried but look amazing). I am shocked and disappointed in the current (3.7) rating and pray for justice for this amazing, well-rounded diner.

    We miss Bobbie Jo so much!! She is a great person and we really appreciate her fun personality. It was always a pleasure having her serve us. She was an absolute sweetheart to all of us!

    I have eaten here on occasion in the past and convinced my companion to go. This is always a hopping place because of the extensive diner menu, large amount of seating and prices. It is also open 24 hours. We decided to get our selections from the 55 and over senior menu. Lots of seniors in the place today, around 1pm. I got a huge portion of schnitzle with gravy, which was very tasty. It came with one side, a salad or soup, and ice cream or pudding for dessert. Like any diner in Pa Dutch Lancaster County, they offered hot bacon dressing on lettuce. This is a super sweet concoction I love! The lettuce was barely green, but it came with a hard-boiled egg, so it was all good. My side was applesauce with cinnamon, and I got butterscotch pudding for dessert. The pudding was really orange, but the taste of butterscotch was discernable. My companion loved the links of smoked sausage, which looked like kielbasa. She got the sweet potatoes with an unknown sauce on top like a hollandaise. A few of the potatoes were black inside, and our server remarked, "That happens." Yes, it does, but generally, the kitchen staff will remove it so that only edible food is served. The unsweet tea was brewed well and refreshing. The total bill was $27. You pay up at the front and there is usually line of diners waiting to pay. I love this diner. Any time of day or night you can get almost any type of food you could want. Service is brisk and the busboy was right there for clearing dishes. If you are looking for traditional Pa Dutch fare, or an extensive breakfast menu, or more off the grid items like gyros or Italian fare, you can find it here.

    Huge portions for the price - I suggest going for breakfast. Quick service. The other meals are good for sandwiches and burger type food. We got country fried steak and a vegetable omelette.

    Portions are big and they have better food than most diners for instance in house made ranch dressing and things like some of their seafood.

Now, years later, my wife and I would pass by the new 81 diner and would always say we needed to try it. We'll, today was the day. We stopped in for lunch, and aside from a gentleman waiting for his to-go order, we were known as the customers. I guess not a lot of people eat at 3 in the afternoon. The atmosphere was very nice. The tables, chairs and booths all fit the diner nicely. My cheesesteak sub was very tasty. Their menu said no substitutions, but they let me withhold the lettuce, tomatoes and onions, which I'm not fond of, so I'm glad they let me do that. Along that note, my wife ordered the BLT sandwich, and gave me some of the bacon, which was really good! Our friend George ordered the pizza burger, which also looked good, and he seemed to enjoy it. Their fresh cut fries were fantastic as well. If I had anything to complain about, it would be that the music being piped in was too modern for a classic diner atmosphere and wasn't something we were expecting. Hopefully that's something they will eventually change. Maybe next time we will stay long enough to try some of their desserts, which looked pretty good too. We will definitely be back soon.

    It pains me to give this place 3 stars. Our waitress was the sweetest the food was really good. We…read morewere in town for the Easter holiday weekend. Came here on a Monday just after 10:30am and they honored our breakfast order. The lunch menu starts promptly at 11am so this was really nice of them. The place is so cute! It's got a country/hipster vibe. I was pleasantly surprised that they had a bar! :) My one issue with breakfast was that I asked for butter and was given butter packets. We came here thinking we were having fresh Amish butter, nope! - What a disappointment! Ugh. The reason why I'm giving this place 3 stars is because of the weird smell. Walking in I thought maybe we walked in right after a gassy person but as we walked through the restaurant to the back the smell was still consistent. We got to the table and the smell seemed to go away or at least we got used to it. At one point I had to use the bathroom and while walking around to find it, the smell hit me first. I was able to smell my way there. Once walking out I was sick. My husband also had to use the e bathroom but the smell was too strong for him so we went stopped elsewhere. The place has a smell that's a mixture of plug-ins and poop. It's the weirdest thing. I'm not sure if they were having sewer issues today or what happened. It seemed like they were definitely aware of the issue because the smell of several plug-ins or air fresheners was obvious. I'd like to give this place another try since the ambiance, food, and staff were all great but the odor is a dealbreaker for me. I guess I'd have to go back & see if this issue gets resolved, if not, I would not stay a second time.

Their cocktails are stellar and I have loved trying the seasonal specials. Their burgers are top-notch and we all enjoy the Wisconsin cheese curds. My most recent visit I ordered the fish tacos and I was impressed with every component of that dish. As far as cocktails, I've tried the blackberry bramble, which is deep and flavorful; raspberry lemon drop that is bright and mildly sweet; and had the cherry cheesecake from the winter menu and enjoyed the fresh flavor with a rich finish. The beer list is also very good with offerings from Dewey Beach, Troeg's, and other craft breweries. I feel Brickerville House is consistenly a great value for your money. It's a comfortable place to meet friends and it's also good for kids.

They fully embrace that feeling I got bangers and mash , I now what a Cumberland sausage taste like, pretty good reminded me of a good breakfast sausage. The mash must have been made with turnip and potato as it was slightly sweet, onion gravy was spot on as were the carrots. The spouse went with the quesadilla. she stated the steak was really good. Ice tea for both of us . unexpectedly water was available for any one from a tap near the doors. Plastic cups, no purchase needed. Great idea! We shall return, nice place and good food is hard get any more. $42.30 plus tip we always tip at 20% ( or the spouse gets testy.) but the server / cleaner didn't get the idea it was for her, I actually had to say " this is a tip, for you!

    Hard to find fault with Park Place Diner ... Once again, we had several lunches here and the food…read morewas great each time. Today I had the chicken Parm sandwich which my coworker had the other day and said was delicious. She was correct! Yesterday we both had burgers and they were very hot, cooked as we requested, and delicious. And the day before that I had meatloaf and mashed and she had the chicken Parm sandwich. Our meals came with soup which was amazing, we had salad which was larger than most side salads and was served chilled, and a cup of fantastic coleslaw and impressively, an entire dill pickle. Most restaurants or diners give you a slice of a deal or, at best, a half a spear, but Park Place gives an entire pickle. Yum! We have a few great dinners near where we live but I'd be happy if Park Place was also among them and not more than an hour away.

    Everyone knows that the Michelin star system ranks restaurants on how trip worthy a restaurant is…read more Whether it be something worth stopping for, making a detour for, or planning an entire trip for. Eating at this restaurant made me feel as though the confines of the Michelin star system is too restrictive. I propose that they implement a negative star ranking to indicate restaurants that it is worth driving a significant distance to literally anywhere else other than here. And then that this restaurant receives a single negative Michelin star. Firstly, the menu is much too large, something that is a detriment to many diners, but is exacerbated here. I've never been handed a menu with two DIFFERENT meatloafs listed before. Whats more, the table next to me asked about the meatloafs to which the waitress working that section told them that it is their most ordered item but half the people who order it have it sent back. I felt like Gordon Ramsey in an episode of kitchen nightmares hearing that. What do you mean your most popular item has such a high rate of people returning it that you feel the need to warn customers against ordering it? On the topic of waitstaff, there is a good amount of training that seems to be missing. Not that they should be held to the same level as a fine dining restaurant, but they should at least be trained to write down daily specials and daily cake offerings instead of telling customers to "go up to the front to look at what is available". I overheard one of the other waitresses saying that she didn't even know the menu had a dessert section. How can you expect the employees working the floor to sell food if they don't even know the menu? All that nit picking aside, if you can get passed all of that you get to the food itself. Firstly the salad. I got a Caesar salad. The bowl it was served in was very warm as if it had just come out of the dishwasher. This lead to a very unpleasant eating experience that I hope I never have to experience again. I also ordered a Grecian panini, something that was arguably not Grecian and definitely not a panini. Premade "gyro meat", a roasted tomato slice, and some watery tatziki put between two pieces of FLATBREAD toasted. The tatziki was warm and bland, the tomato's slimy and messy, and the meat scarce. When I think of a panini I am seeing an amount of filling inside of a nice ciabatta thats been put in a panini press to really Caramelize and get that nice crusty finish. This was just a sad gyro begging to be left on the plate with the undercooked French fries. The highlight of the meal was the strawberry cheesecake, which was mediocre at best. Grainy and a tad undercooked but otherwise not revolting. Building is old and bland but otherwise not terribly dirty for a diner in the middle of nowhere I travel for a living and eat out so often that it genuinely feels like a chore. I would rather not eat than have to come back here.
