5 Best American Restaurants near Lancaster

“My only regret is not buying the "I got mooned at Smokin T's" sweatshirt.I was in town a few days before the solar eclipse of 2024 and ate here two times. The only reason I didn't come back a third time is because they were closed on Tuesday.The food was excellent and the staff were amazing.“

“When I first walked into Sylvia's Lunch Break, I was welcomed with a warm hearted smile and a friendly face; Sylvia. When I sat down I was immediately impressed with the time it took to take my order, it took no time at all. The menu is absolutely incredible ?. The chicken burger I ordered was so incredibly tasty, I started to egde because it was unlike anything I have ever eaten. The pricing was absolutely amazing and affordable. I will definitely be back to eat some more?.“

“Grandma's Kitchen continues to be a great stop. I liked that they closed in the outside patio. It added to the place. Our waitress, Crystal, was delightful. The kid's menu had a number of choices and came with a drink and a side! (We had breakfast.) Prices were competitive. A variety of options for adults, also. The atmosphere was great as always. We'll be back again.“

“Our stay at the Inn was beyond our expectations. Our daughter’s wedding was everything we hoped it would be for them. Can’t wait to come back and stay and relax in this spectacular old inn. Thank you for making our families dreams come true. - The Lajeunesse’“

“Normally I would not give a restaurant like this 5 stars, but i think for the experience I had, they've earned it!My friend and I pulled into town on Eclipes Monday around 1pm. We knew full well that there was only one restaurant in town, and that we were likely going to have to wait. So we waited; we were already where we needed to be, so if we got seated and served, bonus. Well, it didn't work out. But, they were trying, and the young lady serving tables was trying her best. Some were mad they didn't get their food, and that they may have even run out. But hey, how many people showed up there? Yet they still let anyone who needed it use their bathroom. That's a HUGE plus!Forward a few hours after the eclipse, hey let's try again. There was no wait (yet ... there was when we were leaving), and they had burgers! And the bathroom was still available for anyone who needed it!The burgers were exactly how I figured they would be. We asked for medium, and we got medium. They were juicy, good bacon, good fries! We were full, happy, and "relieved".That same young woman was still waiting tables, and she was *happy*! Not all grumpy about how busy they were. And the bathroom was clean and there was still plenty of toilet paper.It's a (really) small town restaurant. I hope some of the other low reviews are not typical. I'm thankful that we were welcomed in the town and that a good grilled burger was available.Parking: Big open parking lot across the street.“
