“Great experience here at First Watch with friendly staff and great tasting food. I'm glad my neighbor suggested it. Lillian was my server, such a sweet young woman. Manager Jos was just as awesome, she checked in to make sure everything was ok. It was more than OK. It was perfect! Thank you to everyone. I felt completely at home. I Will be bragging about this establishment for a while.“
“This is my go-to coffee spot in the city and I drop in most weeks during my office days. Staff are super friendly and relaxed but serve very promptly. Their baked goods are on point and the coffee even more so. I’d recommend this spot to anyone who finds themselves in downtown Harrisburg in need of a caffeine fix.“
“We treated a group of 12 highschool students to drinks at Boba Sensei. They were impressed by the Anime Themed atmosphere of the restaurant, and immediately recognized characters in paintings on the wall. Their staff helped us quickly although we didn't order ahead. They were patient and kind explaining the drinks to our students before taking our large order. They kept the order organized so we could make sure each student got the correct drink. We will order ahead next time, for such a large group. As a first experience at Boba Sensei for our teen girls, this could not have gone better. They were each given a carrier for their drinks, which was very generous. They all enjoyed their tasty selections and want to return at the next opportunity. I know this will be the treat they request often from us.“
“I ordered the Easter dinner and it was fantastic! So much food, all delicious and fresh, at such a great value. I also attended a bridal shower here and the food and ambience were perfect. I’ll definitely be a return customer! Great addition to Hershey!!“
“Their Bahn Mi is absolutely amazing. Service was prompt and courteous, as well as clean and bright atmosphere. I would highly recommend. I also had an opportunity to try their bubble tea, and it was amazing as well. I was highly surprised to find such a treasure in, no offense, Harrisburg PA.“
“This morning I enjoyed their Vegan Hash.Onions,mushrooms, peppers,zucchini,spinach, roasted tomatoes,vegan sausage and home fries.SO GOOD! And filling - took some home.I had a hot matcha latte with it.I've eaten here many times and everything is on point.Service ✔️Atmosphere ✔️Food ✔️Price ✔️10 out of 10 would highly recommend!!“
“This was breakfast on a very rainy Saturday around 9:45 am and the place was packed!I had Eggs Benedict which were okay. My friend had a vegetable omelette which looked delicious. Service was prompt and professional. We had to circle around the block to find parking.“
“We have lived in the area for a couple of years now, and I've been wanting to try Hershey Pantry for a while. We finally went for breakfast, and weren't very impressed. While we loved the feel of the outdoor heated patio, the seats were difficult for our 2 year old to sit in with the booster seat and the food was bland. Our daughter ordered the chocolate chip pancake, my husband got the steak and eggs, and I got the breakfast skillet. I don't often salt and pepper my food, but I did this time. My husband and I felt that both our dishes were very basic in taste, like they didn't season it at all. We probably won't make this our regular breakfast place.“
“Best diner in the area. I've been going here going on 10 years I believe. The staff is always pleasant. The food is fantastic and you can't beat the prices. It gives you a mom and pop feel eating here and those are some of the best experiences when dining if you ask me. Highly recommend.Parking: This place stays pretty busy so parking is usually scarce and you may need to park on the street if the lot is full.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. Me and my now 5 year old comes here every other weekend.“
“We enjoyed lunch in Lisa's after touring the Hershey Story Museum in the same building. This is a cafe where you order from the counter and they deliver the food to your table. The menu is pretty typical, but they make sandwiches and subs to order. We ordered a turkey & provolone sub to share and two sodas - one fountain Coke and one bottled. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant was clean with tables and booths. This was a convenient choice after touring the museum upstairs.“
“New to the area and was looking for a coffee shop with great atmosphere, wifi, and of course quality coffee and bites as I work from home and like a change of scenery. Not only is the cafe so aesthetic- it is bright, clean, cozy, and has fantastic food + drinks! The avo + egg toast is ???“
“our server, Ken, was absolutely phenomenal. he provides excellent service to his tables. he makes the whole experience delightful. if you visit here be sure to request Ken for an awesome experience and delicious food. you will not be disappointed!!“
“It's my favorite place for lunch. I love Roxy's Turkey and Provolone sandwich with cranberry mayo. The staff are personable, accommodating and efficient. The rooms of this house have a variety of memorabilia and old-time objects decoarating the walls, that make for some interesting conversation pieces. There are limited hours, so make sure to check the website. They prefer cash but you can use a credit card for a fee.I highly recommend this restaurant and wish I could have lunch there every day!!“
“Quick friendly service, in a space with lots of neighborly charm. The food is fantastic, there are board games to be play if you are looking to hang around a while. And let's be clear, the ginger molasses cookies are NOT TO BE MISSED. They are so good. I dream about them. I get one every time I stop by--which is whenever I can!“
“Went here before an event after trying a couple of other places with long waits. So glad we found this place! No wait, friendly staff, and in spite of being almost full, the food came up fast, hot, and extremely delicious. Orders were placed at the counter, but they brought the food to the table- on real plates with real silverware- as soon as it was ready. The brick oven pizza was great, the cheesesteaks were good size and extremely delicious (would order again!) and the fries and onion rings were cooked perfectly. Prices were very reasonable and a great value for the money. Wish I had time for dessert as the menu was extensive. In spite of being slammed, and only having a staff of three, they did an incredible job and were still courteous and friendly. Highly recommend this place whether for a quick bite or a leisurely dinner.Parking: Small parking lot directly in front.“
“Before attending a Hershey’s Theatre concert Saturday night, we googled bakery and this business had most great reviews.The inside decor was so inviting and seasonally uplifting.Then looking into the two glassed dessert cases that we’re filled with cookies, scones, pies, cakes, etc, andI started picking what I can’t bake: the pumpkin tiramisu, the cheesy, savory scone, the mini pumpkin cheesecakes, the pumpkin muffin, the pecan brownie, ALL complimented by a cinnamon bun cappuccino!! OMG!The staff were hustling restocking, cleaning up because a few minutes after I paid for my desserts, seven customers walked in to purchase sweets!Mayrana, our rock star clerk, patiently guided me through the lush myriad of sugary treats. $60 later, we took a stool and chilled with a few of our selections and that perfecto coffee.In ending, just a mile south on Chocolate Avenue from city centre.“
“Great food. Great location. Great owner. Everything is fresh. Solid breakfast and lunch menu. Best breakfast sandwich I can find in downtown Harrisburg. I would have never thought putting Mayo on a breakfast sandwich would work but it is delicious. Especially the herbed Mayo. Try it out. You won’t regret it.“
“Well worth driving out of our way for this gem of a cafe! We had the special green matcha rose latte with oat milk, a cherry danish, the blueberry stuffed pancakes, and 'the all in' sandwich served on rye bread. The sandwich was divine, though would have been wonderful with some extra sauce. The danish was just as we expected it to taste. I requested it be toasted rather than warmed elsewhere. That made a worldly difference in texture appeal, to compliment the taste. The blueberry pancakes were good. Nothing over the top for that. The plate could have used some dressing up for serving the rolled up pancakes. Maybe a poof of whip cream on each side if the customer only orders the pancakes and no side. The latte was delicious, but too sweet. The sweetness did take away from the name of the drink. For it to be green matcha primarily, I would have adored more of that with hints of the other flavors for that specific signature drink.The staff was polite, well mannered, and had good energy. ?? ?The atmosphere was quaint, with some nice plants as decor, along with a micro gift/merchandise section. The seating area was a little too crammed for our liking, but for many cafés we have found this to be somewhat common depending on what appeal the business is going for. It's simply nice to be able to hear yourself think and connect with the people you arrive to eat with. It was crowed for brunch on a Monday, which we were happy to see for The Hive, nonetheless! It's clear the locals come often, which makes this a special spot. There is a nice couch/coffee table set up, which is where we chose to eat for the extra space. In addition, there is outdoor seating available for nicer weather days under an attached pavilion style picnic area.All-in-all, it was worth our spontaneous stop, and we will absolutely be back! Many thanks to the staff and owners who are doing a wonderful job! We wish you well for years to come. ??✨️?“
“All the stars. The breakfast burrito was delicious. Everything there is made super fresh right next to you. None of that Perkins nonsense. The pancake was incredible. Lots of Harrisburg regulars coming in with "usuals" and it's super cute how the people there know their orders and names by heart.“
“I got here late morning and it was super busy but service was still fast. The workers were friendly and the atmosphere is very cute and chic I will definitely go back. I had a mint matcha I think it was on the speciality menu and it was amazing .“
“I used to go here all the time back in the early 90's. I had not been here since 95. Oh my it's still best food prices and portions in the Burg! Definitely a locals spot and anyone who works in the downtown capital area. Stop in look at this $9 meatloaf with double mash. ???“
“My absolute favorite place to sit down, enjoy a mug of all you can pour coffee, and just think. I love to go to BCB to soak in the atmosphere and do my work. The staff and management are absolutely amazing and hard working, and the atmosphere is way more “at home” and comfortable in comparison to all the “popular,” big-name coffee shops. I LOVE BCB!“
“We had an absolutely wonderful meal at Hillside Cafe this evening. We decided to eat at the bar and Richard took very good care of us. I had a berry punch that was so delicious I had to have another. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday so we splurged. I got the House Special of a filet mignon (cooked perfectly) and a crabcake. Their crab cakes can not be beat! My husband got the T-bone and added a lobster tail he said they were both cooked perfectly. We could not leave without their peanut butter pie, so we got it to go. Hillside is our go to for fantastic food.“
