Cabalar. Best burger in Lancaster…read more Now their specials are always LEGIT. Lancaster Restaurant Week was serving up a Jibarito, corned beef, fried plantains, melted cooper, pickled onions, and mayoketchup. The sandwich was incredible! Such a good touch on a cultural favorite! I myself prefer it without pickled onions, but if you love onions, this is perfect! Cabalar is massively popular and will always require a decent wait for made to order items. I believe we waited about 25 minutes for this sandwich. Love the green and white throughout the restaurant. Awesome shirts for sale. The decor in here is awesome with paintings everywhere. Tons of seating and kids area upstairs!

Such a great food find in Lancaster!…read more Friendly crew here! Lots of hellos and the fun Route 66 decor is very welcoming. They have several tables and lots of different options on their menu! Casual shop with brisk business. Walk in, order, and pay. When your food is ready, they call out your order. Everything is made fresh and the prices are actually very reasonable for the quality of food. My cole slaw in the Nashville fried chicken was very fresh and delicious. Fries were fresh, and perfectly seasoned with salt. All their burgers and sandwiches have the Route 66 sauce. Don't skip it, if it's served with it, just go with the flow! Nashville hot fried chicken sandwich $8.49 Double cheeseburger $8.99 Fried chicken tikka masala sandwich $8.99 Large home cut fries $5.99 They take credit cards. Can't wait to come back!

Not much seating, but the food is WORTH IT! Don't know what to get? Chicken Tandoori Cheesesteak. Trust us and enjoy. 5 star sandwich.

Smash burgers, tasty and fulfilling. This is your sign, go to Route 66.

I've visited this place twice now and usually I'm not too inspired to write a review, but my visit…read morelast night really showed how much I enjoy the general vibe and especially the food of this place. When you enter this place its at ground level and immediately you recognize you need to take the stairs up. Once you usher yourself up it opens up to two areas where you wait to be seated. The place is an older vintage like gastropub where the front is one bar and some seating, but on the backside is more open seating with where the band and another bar are situated. This place isn't meant to be for large groups, but could possibly accommodate groups of 6. The main bar which also next to the kitchen is an older vintage style bar and whisky's is nothing special but once you sit down and hear the music you settle in nicely. Service has always been courteous and prompt and the menu looks like there are a good assortment of choices. The two times I've been here I've ordered the mussels which includes great sauce and spread with seasoned ground meet. Was so yummy! The second time I came I tried the CHICKEN FRICASSEE. Man was that great! It includes 4 pieces of bread, chicken and the mushroom sauce. So good! Both times I had some of their assortment of single scoop ice-cream which in this area, something about the milk from their amish cows is so creamy. All that said, this is one of my fav places to come enjoy a glass of wine and food. Oh and Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday's they have some instrumental band playing too.

Decades has been in downtown Lancaster since 2019, located at 438 N. Queen St. in the old Stahr…read moreArmory building -- a 95-year-old, 15,000-square-foot former gymnasium. The space includes a full-service restaurant and bar, a retro arcade with more than 40 games, and a six-lane bowling alley. The menu has vegan and gluten-free options. One of their bartenders won first place at the VeloCity cocktail competition. There's also an ice cream bar on site with its own hours. The arcade has skeeball, an original 1990s X-Men cabinet, House of the Dead, Rampage, and other classic games. Bowling lanes are separate from the arcade area. They also host private events. Parking is available next door at the North Queen Street Garage. Worth checking their hours before heading over since they're closed Monday and Tuesday. Good spot for dinner, drinks, arcade games, and bowling in one place.

What a fun spot for drinks, food, and games!…read more It was incredibly hot outside when we visited, so walking into a place with strong, ice-cold A/C was a huge bonus. Definitely appreciated that! The drinks were well-made, and there was a great selection of games to choose from. Getting coins is easy too--you can purchase them directly from the bartender The service was excellent throughout our visit. The staff was attentive, professional, and friendly, and I also enjoyed their creative and fun drink menu This is definitely a place worth checking out. Beyond the arcade games, they also have N64 games and bowling, making it a great destination for a night out with friends or a fun outing with family!

Lots of tasty looking beers on the draft list so asked for a flight. I was impressed with how tasty every different style was. Atmosphere: 5 - Relaxed. Great wooden bar sort of feels like an Irish pub. Service: 5 - Got a seat near the bar and was served by the bartender. Beer delivery is quick and friendly. Food: Great menu of bar food. Lots of people eating pizza but I prefer to drink my carbs so I had one of their phat 1/2# burgers. Cultural/Political Agenda (1-5): 5 -Everyone is welcome. No preachy nonsense or virtue signaling, just beer, as it should be.

Honestly, wouldn't really recommend coming here unless you're looking for beer or something basic…read more Their menu shrunk extremely, and they were out of boned wings. Their soda machine was definitely on the verge of being out. When coming over with the drinks, he had spilled them a good amount. The service wasn't too attentive or friendly. Granted they weren't mean. The food just wasn't a vibe in my opinion. The boneless wings were nicely moist in the middle, so that was good. Just wasn't too satisfied here. Loved the decor and the layout though. Just needs better service and more options.

I was in town recently and found this place on yelp as it was close to my hotel. The interior is…read morea classic Irish pub. Ware it was a beautiful night we went and sat in the outdoor patio. There was quite a crowd at the bar, which I think may have been attributed to happy hour as it seemed to clear out about halfway through our dinner. We had the Irish soda bread and in order of chips for a starter. The soda bread was served with butter and jam. It was pretty good. The chips appeared to be hand, cut, and well fried. They had a very good taste of them. They were served with three sauces, two of which were cream based and were pretty tasty. The third was supposed to be a curry sauce, but it was extremely thin and did not have a great deal of flavor. I have the bangers and mash and my wife had a steak. Both were very good. Service was OK but the bartender who poured my second Guinness could probably take a remedial lesson in how to pour a Guinness as it was definitely not a proper pour. All in all if I were in the area again, I would probably come here.

Having a Guinness is always nice and, my shepherd's pie was pretty good, but the fish and chips was as bad as it gets and it was all a bit overpriced. The shepherd's pie had a nice presentation and good taste, although perhaps a bit low on meat. The fish and chips looked like someone's first ever attempt at making it. A greasy mess with more batter than fish. Service was slow as well.

We tried Bad Garden Kitchen this past weekend after hearing lots of recommendations from local…read morevegan friends and the food was so mind-blowingly good! I got the Burn Notice sandwich with a grilled vegan chicken patty and my partner got the Smoke Show, each with a side of fries. The fries were cooked perfectly and were great portion sizes. Our sandwiches were so tasty and the sauce added the perfect amount of flavor and heat. I also had the strawberry and dragon fruit Tractor juice and it was so refreshing! As others have stated, you do have to ask for water if you want it as it isn't included on the menu. We ordered our food on a tablet at the front counter and it was brought out to our table. The dining area is cozy, but not too small or cramped and the staff was very helpful and friendly! We can't wait to back to try more items!

Stopped in to Mad Chef unexpectedly while traveling through Lancaster…read more My wife and I were hungry and tired from traveling through Pennsylvania. Thankfully Mad Chef was open later than most places so we got in before the kitchen closed. I enjoyed the low lighting with the brewery equipment shining in the background. Having the Phillies game on the tv's only added to our experience. Our drinks and food were excellent. I always like to enjoy a local craft beer, having it paired on site with fabulous eats is even better. I ordered Mr Dynamite Brown, their American brown ale which was fabulous. We ordered a small Pommes Frites (French fries) that were cooked in Canola oil. While light in color, these fries were cooked to perfection. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, salted just right. My wife ordered the pretzel and said it was her type, buttery, salty, and doughy. I ordered the Korean Pork Nachos, by far the best nachos I've ever had the pleasure to devour. I can't begin to describe how well the roasted corn poblano medley brought this plate together. Every bite had an explosion of flavor with the Korean glaze and Gochujang aioli. This dish blows Guy Fieri's trash can Brisket nachos out of the water. If ever in Lancaster don't pass up on the Mad Chef Craft Brewing gem.

This was my 2nd time coming to Mad Chef!…read more The first time I came here was about 2 years ago (before doing yelp reviews). I was not very impressed. This time around I cannot complain! Their specials are all revolving around the Masters which was unique! We tried the Pimento, Fried Green Tomato, Chicken Sandwich (The Pimento Birdie). This was a delicious sandwich that just screams Georgia! We also tried the Madfather Chicken Sandwich! Pesto, Vodka Sauce, Mozzarella, this thing was outstanding! The fries are always a highlight here! We got the bucket (had a bigger group) and it came with 3 sauces. 1 tiny little knock on the fry bucket....the entire bucket was not filled with fries. The bottom of the fry bucket had about an inch or 2 of crinkled up paper..... All of the food was outstanding. The beer was good. Tons of space and seating. Very easy ordering process. Go up to the counter, tell them your table number, and your food arrives shortly! Prices are high here! Expect a larger number on your check if consuming both food and alcohol!
