    Sam Adam's Oktoberfest & apple juice

    Great time at aroogas! Love the bar and how it's separated from the restaurant. We had the Carolina wings and that was fantastic. Make sure to get it twice toasted so that the sauce is caramelized and sticky, game changer! We also had the buffalo chicken dip pretzel, and that was extremely good as well.

    Ordered 20 wings - all raw, absolutely ridiculous, unsafe to eat even, never ordering from here again

    I get why they get such bad reviews. If you read through them most the low rating is for customer service not the food. Went with four guys to watch some basketball, eat & drink. There we sat 4 guys (trying to not believe us being black matters) in front of the beer tab. 2 bar tenders going back and forth to pour beer from the tab. Either bar tender even asking if we wanted a drink. After 15 mins sitting at the bar and two bar tenders. We stopped the lady bar tender to take our order. She said 1 min please. Delivered beers to others. Proceeded to stop and talk to others that were eating and drinking. After 10 minutes going by we alerted the male bar tender we'd like to order. He to went to deliver others drinks. He did come back 4 mins later to take our order. Finally we got the wings and fries. The food is the only reason they got my 2 stars. Once we got the food. We had to ask for silverware, ask for napkins and get the bar tenders attention to get another round of drinks. The service is horrible at this location. That's why their rating is so low. Won't be back

    The donut burger with fries
    Daniela E.

    For anyone who's from the city this place kind of reminds me of a mixture of Buffalo Wild Wings and the food/drink menu of a Dave and Busters. First, they have a great drink menu with such an intense variety to include buckets of cocktails you can order to share, they also have a pretty great selection of what's on tap. Their food menu contains just as much variety from loaded tater tots, sandwiches, wings, burgers and so on. American food but with a little bit of a twist. My coworker order classic hot wings extra wet so it came super saucy and the wings were literally fire they were so hot but good. I took an interest to something a little different that caught my eye... The donut burger It's a glazed donut as the bun, with a cheese burger and bacon. It was amazing, and definitely sensory overload with all the flavors going on but not too much because it wasn't a huge burger. I loved it and definitely recommend! Also, their fries are really good and I'm a fry person so that says a lot. The place is fun, they have poker tournaments which was going on, pool tables, and apparently a bunch of other things depending on what night you go. Even though they were pretty busy customer service was good and everything came out pretty quickly.

    Pina Colada - a bit watered down, could've used more flavor
    Rebecca B.

    Came here for my 21st birthday celebration with family. We called ahead for 14 seats, and they graciously accommodated us. The waitress was very attentive and ready to get me my next drink at all times. The food came quickly and was piping hot. I had the guiltless wings with buffaque sauce, which I highly recommend. I don't like breading covering up the flavor of the chicken, so these were perfect. I also tried my dad's buffalo chicken mac and cheese, which was amazing. My grandmother has particular food needs and preferences, and the kitchen was more than happy to accommodate her needs. Overall, very happy with this experience!

    The drinks were overly diluted and the bartender was attitudinal. Unfortunate for the amount of money spent. Do better

Most people come to Ted's for the bar side, so let's talk about that. The bar side is what keeps people coming back again. It is truly a place where you can feel at home and people will remember your name. The beer selection is really good. They don't have it on tap.

You can order food at the bar as most people do. The kitchen is open until 10. There are plenty of TVs to watch any sports game that you want. If you're looking for a place where you can just have a few beers, a few laughs, and take in a game with friends or family. Well then come on down and give Ted's a try.

The bar area has an abundance of large screen TVs so they are sure to have the game you are looking for. The beer menu is very diverse with craft beers and all he big bottle choices. Don't let the sports bar vibe fool you, there's separate rooms off to the side which make it a good place to bring the kids or other non-drinkers to. Ted's is overall solid choice with something for everyone.

FLYERS ON EVERY SCREEN!!! When I say every screen, I think they have about 30 televisions surround the entire interior of the building as well as what looks like how Hockey games have the scoreboard around the center, that's how it is their with the televisions. Trivia is every Wednesday at 7PM. It's a pretty good time honestly. There's a guy named Juan that runs it. He has good style, he is a classy individual and a very intelligent man. Do not use your cell phone or he will exclude you from the game. His rules, not mine... understandably some of the questions are hard but it is what it is. As for the food, it's amazing no matter what I get. From the Loaded Nachos to the Reuben to the Mozzarella Sticks, PB Burger, Fried Pickle Spears, and their Brownie Sundaes... Simply amazing! Every bite makes you want another. The waitresses their are attentive, communicative, responsive, they have jokes and are very polite and respectful. It's a place you can take your Mother.

    Wow! My companion…read moreand I stopped in on an early Saturday evening after months of "you know, we should try that place sometime." We are glad we finally did. 1762 was formerly known as The Warwick Hotel, and that's the prominent markings you'll see from the street. It is a really excellent spot on the square in Hummelstown with cozy charm and exceptional service. My companion was initially skeptical when she saw wine on tap but immediately changed her mind when she saw the offerings--good quality and reasonable price point. The beer selection is also good. Not a huge number of beers but well-selected. Although we didn't have a full meal we did enjoy the sausage and honey appetizer, which was outrageously tasty with sausage from a local butcher in Hershey. Service was efficient and friendly, especially considering the bar (where we sat) was hopping. We also met the owner, Dave, who rolled up his sleeves to assist at the bar while also personally greeting customers. Our biggest regret is that we waited so long to finally visit...and we'll definitely be back soon.

We started off with the mushroom flatbread, which was delicious. Hubby had the mahi-mahi special and I had a shrimp dish. I got to choose what kind of topping I wanted on my shrimp, which was really interesting. I chose the sautéed mushrooms. Yum. Plus, lots of great choices for sides. We will definitely come back when we are in the area!

The appetizers were well worth the price and were served pretty quickly! I had the Ahi Tuna Nachos and my husband had the Kung Pao Brussel Sprouts. Both were delicious and the right amount for a heavy appetizer for a Sunday afternoon! To top it off, we also had some drink specials that included the Frosted Strawberry and draft Blue Moon. We topped off the afternoon with the recommended pineapple upside down cake and didn't turn back. It was decadent and the prefect size for two. The staff was pleasant, but I felt should have been more attentive for a sparse bar. The restaurant was unique in design and trendy, and had a nice flow of customers for a Sunday afternoon. All in all, would do again for the happy hour specials! Quality of food: 5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Overall cost and experience: 4.5/5

My wife got the same Chicken Salad sandwich again, it's still a winner, seafood chowder was satisfactory to good according to her, she took the balance back to our hotel & she had it in the morning as she had a early morning meeting & we had a microwave, she changed her opinion to great , saying it tasted even better in the morning I guess from it being dehydrated. Pretzel was great, I had a chicken pot pie which I though was ok, it was basically a chicken stew served with a puff pastry in there instead of the stew in a puff pastry, It tasted clean & light lacking body so I ordered a side of lime rice which worked for me. The star of this place is really their custom brews, I thigh think the food here is 4to 4 1/2 star but their brews make it a 5 star restaurant. Their birch beer & bourbon ginger are perfectly balanced flavor & refreshing & I also bought a bottle of their express Old Fashion to take home, 10/10 satisfaction. Even in you are not a alcohol consumer, the Location, atmosphere & quality of service coupled with good , clean food makes this a great restaurant. A definite must visit in Hershey.
