I went to Baugher's for breakfast and I have to say it was not bad at all. The menu is simple when it comes to breakfast, nothing crazy or fancy. Just the basics when it comes to the first meal of the day. My only complaint would be the coffee, it could be a little stronger. Other than that, the food is good and the price is fair. read more

I used to come here as a kid with my family. Nostalgia ! I see they haven't made any updates since I was a kid over twenty years ago. Definitely not a place to take a date. No ambiance and you have to take your bill to the front to pay. That is an ordeal because there's no one there usually and 15 other customers are all crowded around with you waiting to pay. Not good for covid! Food is average. I got the fried chicken which was juicy and hot but the skin was too heavy and tastes like air lol no flavor. I asked for hot sauce and they gave me some weird thing that wasn't actually hot sauce. Sting beans taste canned. They nuke their store bought bread in the microwave and it's chewy. They don't have hot cider in the summer so don't try and order that nor the oysters! But I remember this place fondly as well as picking apples at their orchard as a kid!!!! read more

They are awesome. Nice staff. Good quality food cooked with fresh materials. I definitely recommend them.

I've always loved Baugher's Restaurant! Definitely a go too place to eat for the family, they do get really busy but the food and service makes it worth the wait! Plus while your waiting they have the produce part connected to the restaurant so you can walk through there and grab your favorite produce! 10/10 recommend read more

****MISTREATMENT OF YOUNG PEOPLE AND WOMEN**** I skimmed through the reviews, this is not the first review of this kind. The way that I witnessed the owner/manager speaking to and treating the young ladies of his staff, has made me reconsider ever going back to the restaurant. This man's behavior was absolutely appalling, unacceptable d misogynistic. You sir are a bully to young ladies. Does that make you feel good about yourself sir?? He was frustrated, angry, very overboard, You could see this man's repressed anger in his eyes. A dangerous man. This is His body language was horrible. This is the kind of man that you know treats people way worse when in private. He was not quiet about it, he thought he was sneaky about it, his body language and his angry face and his tone, I'll never forget it. And I watched these girls just take it and go back to work. I watched smiles fade off of their faces one by one. I watched a gloom come over their eyes and their face. I felt horrible for them. I felt like they were trapped because they needed to make money and cannot quit. This is some of their first jobs. This is sad... You know who I am Sir, I was the one wearing the Cookie monster blue sweatshirt. I was with my ancient grandmother :)) (Hi ladies on the staff!! You all were wonderful, you are very sweet all of you! I'm sorry you have to endure working for such a pig) Sir, you were so rude to your staff, especially the young people, Probably cuz you know the older people aren't going to take your BS. And then at the end, you got frustrated with my grandmother because she is 93 years old and was having a hard time with her credit card. I came in tonight with my grandmother who's turning 93 next week. We've been coming here most of our life.... I've never seen or met the owner or manager before. I did tonight, he was in the restaurant and I wish I never would have, and I hope I never see him again. The young ladies that were seating people and serving us were absolutely wonderful. They seem like some of the best staff! They were helpful, descriptive, on point, smiling, and kind. The way that he was speaking to these young ladies, NOBODY should ever be treated that way. NOTHING IS IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO TREAT PEOPLE THAT WAY! I can't believe this man's comfortable to do it in public. What a scary, unpredictable man. I hate to think of how he acts when people aren't watching. If I find out that he was the owner, I will never go back. I'll be calling tomorrow to figure out who the man was. If I want country homemade food, I'll drive out to Bullocks Family Restaurant, off of rt.32 next time. Please treat young people, women, and human beings with dignity, you, Mean Man. You were horrible to these young ladies tonight. read more

Mediocre cafeteria food. We got the turkey and dressing special. The turkey was overcooked. Gravy tasted canned. The fries weren't crisp and had no seasoning. The pie a la mode came cold. ?? The ice cream was very smooth and creamy and pie had a deeply sweet fresh apple taste with adequately executed crust. read more

It's really good food for the price. Recommend for people driving by West Minster. It's a good place if you want a quick bite and to not spend a lot of money. The prices here are amazing for what you get (especially breakfast.) This place caters to more of an older crowd but there are good deals here. It's not a fine dining type of place but I'm giving five stars for pricing and a lot of homemade items. Pies are homemade along with a lot of other things. You can also stop by the farmers market they own next door for fresh produce! read more

This is a great place to buy fruit, jellies, and baked goods. It is however not a place to eat. I had a poorly cooked frozen square of fish not even McDonald's quality. Everything we got was barely ok. Three of us got diarrhea soon after leaving the restaurant. Buy fruit and don't eat in the restaurant! read more

1st glance at this place is like u are back in 1951 When u walk in it's gotten gross wrapped all up in 1 Food is extremely close to dog food grade and the staff has the same attitude the seating is gross and extremely dirty ... and don't even get me started on the bathrooms GROSSSSSSSSSSS!!! If your looking for a kitten nightmares and get sick please go here it's all wrapped up in one Will I return????.... NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The food was very unappealing. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and my friend had a fish sandwich.

Agree with many of the comments. Basic food at a reasonable price. Fries were limp and cold. The burger was served with mayo and pickle relish on the burger. (Tarter sauce taste). Milk shake was very good. Reuben very good. Came with pickle slice. They are short staffed and those that do work seem tired. read more

Absolutely disgusting experience. Our waitress had zero training and I claim management, not her. No wait staff member should ever be allowed to wreck customer experiences due to inept management. Shame on them. I ordered unsweet iced tea with lemon. I received unsweet tea with no ice. The stingy slice of lemon was cut so thin it snapped in half and fell on the table. I ordered the Baugher Burger. I received a burger with a frozen, over processed patty not even as good as the scrap we had to eat when I was poor. I had to fight to get the gristle out of my teeth. I asked for mustard. I had to wait so long my gristle burger was cold. Three bites later I set it aside. I asked for crispy fries. I was served cold fries that obviously had sat under a heat lamp where they turned limp. I asked the waitress why they hadn't been cooked longer until crispy. She said, "I told the cooks. I don't know what happened." A big part of being a server is CHECKING ORDERS BEFORE BRINGING SLOP TO A CUSTOMER!!!!! THAT IS YOUR JOB!!!! Never again. Two bad experiences in a row. If rather eat at McDonald's for half the cost of feeling insulted and sick. Bauhger' s may have been great in it's day, but it's obviously time to hang it up. read more

I had high hopes for this restaurant, I thought the food would be like a country home cooked meal. I was so disappointed. The fried chicken was dry, greasy and tasted of flour. There were no seasonings that I could taste. My sides were onion rings, which I literally received three, small in size and Mac n' cheese. As soon as I tasted the meal, I regretted my decision. My nephew ordered the Retro Burger, it came with all the toppings, but all it had was LTO, it was supposed to have more toppings. It also came with fries, which admittedly were plentiful and a milkshake which basically a blob of ice cream and what appeared to be milk poured over it. It was watery, not thick like milkshakes would be. My niece ordered a chickensteak sub, the sandwich was dry, bread looked old. She took a few bites and stopped. Overall, the service lacked (the waiter kept walking by telling us he'd be right with us meanwhile he ignored us and started cleaning a table and hung out by the server station. I would never recommend this place and wasted money on subpar food. I'm grossed out just thinking about the food. Sorry not sorry. Save your money, not worth it. Oh and if you try to go to their pumpkin patch you have to wait in a long line just to get to the patch, can't go in for free. Waste of time. read more

Prices are reasonable and the food ranges from great to mediocre. Our most recent visit service was unfriendly and inattentive. Frankly, I was disappointed, but the charm of this place, its family atmosphere, and ice cream make it hard for me to give it less than 3 stars. read more

We went on Saturday for brunch, and at 10:30 there was a half hour wait time. That being said, there was an adjoined market for local vegetables, bakery dessert goods, and little odds and ends meant to give rustic decorations. When we were serviced in for our table, the waiter remembered my friends who came about a week ago. Service was friendly, the waitress who served us made sure our apple ciders were topped off. Hot apple cider on a cold morning is delightful. The ambience was more towards a local friendly diner. Now for the food. We ordered the Cream Chipped Beef with biscuit, hungry man platter, four layer omelette, and the French toast. Portions were great, prices affordable, and food quality good. Just a simple delightful breakfast to have after a trip to the farmers market. The desserts looked great, but we were too full to try some. read more

They served one tiny piece of tilapia with the worst inhouse made potato salaed one could imagine. On the plus side, the inhouse made apple sauce was good. read more

The buckwheat blueberry pancakes are a pleasant way to start the morning. A fork and a knife is all you need to have a handful of fresh from the farm, plump, juicy, naturally sweet blueberries excite your taste buds. The pancakes are huge and if you get 3, you may have to skip a meal later on like I did. The pancakes are hot for about 12 mins after they are brought out to the table and the syrup soaks right in to the pancake, only adding to the fork tender moistness. The breakfast sausage tasted great and was cooked just right. This is down home cooking at its finest in a northern part of Maryland near the Pennsylvania border. Treat yourself to this establishment and the convenient produce market next door! read more

Food is cheap and what you'd expect from a country diner. It's not bad and it's not good either. I wouldn't call the food high quality however it is consistent. The staff is often overwhelmed and at times neglectful. Sometimes just rude. The clientele is what you'd expect from a deeply conservative rural area and often the conversations you overhear are flat out offense if not alarming. It's a staple in this community which is changing rapidly and Baugher's, it's staff, and the clientele are often out of step with those changes. If you want to see old school 'Merica then Baughers is your place. It certainly meets the needs of a certain democratic but I prefer to spend my money and time elsewhere. read more

Arrived 7/16/2022 with a group of 20 had no reservations around 4:30 we were seated in the back within 10 minutes had 2 to 3 of the staff waiting on us service was fantastic food was excellent.Best place to come when your in the Carroll County area will definitely be back.

Delicious family style dinner! I was out for the day to get some fruit at the orchard and stopped in to eat before heading to the farm. Worth the stop! Seating was fairly quick despite the line, about 15 minutes on a busy weekend lunchtime. Looks like they had a menu for specials for each day of the month and fairly large regular menu for breakfast and other meals. I got there about 2pm, decided to try the liver and onions, mashed potato, and salad. Came with two fresh warm rolls. The salad was a good sized garden salad, with fresh sliced very red ripe tomatoes. The liver and onions and mashed potatoes were all good sized portions and delicious. I had no room for desert, although if I had any room this would have been a good place to try it, looked like many got pie or ice cream while there. The staff was friendly and refilled my water and checked up to see all okay etc and no pressure to hurry etc despite busy. Once you get your check, you take it up to the cashier to pay. Recommended, delicious and very good value for the prices! read more

This is one of those places that has been around forever and the locals just rave about. My wife grew up in this area and used to eat here as a child all the time. Walking in, you can tell that very little has changed. Honestly, this isn't my kind of food because well honestly this kind of home-cooking will kill you after a while. It's worth a visit. The food is cheap. There's no alcohol. They have a market outside where you can get fresh produce. read more

This place is literally down the hill from the Best Western. Prices are amazingly affordable especially for their deserts. The restaurant itself is a small diner. My wife and I ordered a chicken salad with honeymustard dressing which was really good. I ordered the retro burger deal which was an 8 oz cheeseburger with fries and your choice of shake made from their homemade icecream. Burger was decent. Fries were good. The shake could have been better. It was okay. I think they just use too much milk. I had an oreo milk shake. When I compare it to my own shake at home which I just use vanilla icream, oreo cookies and some milk, there's a little bit of a let down. I probably should have gotten their 8 oz Angus burger which was on special on Tuesday nights. My wife got the fish and chips which again was amazingly cheap. The fish could have been much better as well. The batter was too thick. Again the fries were pretty good. The staff was very friendly. Might come back for desert. read more

Stopped in for dinner after visiting the farm. The food was meh but the waitress was very nice and the price was right. My husband and I split the two Saturday specials, BBQ brisket and chicken parm. The brisket was rubbery and over done, the chicken part of the chicken parm was great but the spaghetti was whatever. The mac n cheese side was a weaker version of what Stouffer's does and not the grandma's home cooking style I was hoping for. The French fries and milkshake were good and the fried chicken looked good and is made to order so it takes a while. Shoulda stuck with my original plan of the chicken steak sandwich and fries. Oh well. I'd probably still go back but would just order something different. read more

Wonderful great service good food. Fast service. A wonderful array of homemade delicious deserts.

Staff was great!!!!! It's a 'seat yourself' kinda place.....large portions.....good prices.....just good ol' diner food! Blueberry pancakes were HUGE......tasty and way too much to eat at one sitting. Hubby loved the corn beef hash and his sausage omelette. I really loved the coffee......all in all, I would return without a doubt. read more

My rating is really about 3 1/2 stars. The restaurant was super clean, the staff was very nice but I had better hopes for the food. It was the first cold day of the fall so I ordered a cup of chili, bland at best. I also got the bacon grilled cheese, is wass cooked on the grill with probably vegetable oil and had a nasty after taste. The locals love it so maybe I picked the wrong things on the menu. read more

When I see 5-star reviews for a place barely deserving two, it leaves me suspicious. I wish it were enough to say that Baugher's was awful, but it's not. Consider this out-of-towner's advice. My visit was at high-noon on Sunday. First of many red flags: a line 20-deep waiting outside (good sign??), but consisted of the most unhealthy people I've ever seen (bad sign). Second red flag: dead flowers for sale outside. By the time I finished inside, didn't even want to explore the outside market. Third red flag: the 5-star raters claim friendly service, but everyone I saw seemed to hate working there, to dislike every new customer arriving, and appeared as unhealthy as their regular patrons. Eating buddy had the tuna melt, which we then decided was better described as a "Mayo Sandwich." Flecks of tuna floating in a jar of mayonnaise. She took one lick and refused to eat it (after running a 13-mile race and was famished). I had a turkey burger on a nondescript generic bun. McDonald's, a place I haven't eaten at in over a decade, has higher quality fare. Quick interjection: Baugher's does have good prices, on par with McDonald's and other substandard eateries. In an attempt to wash away the experience, my eating buddy had "home made" vanilla ice cream; it was tasteless. I had mint chocolate chip, but threw out the artificial, essential-oil tasting ice cream and just ate the cone. It's a sad state of affairs when Americans in a small town rate the quality of this restaurant as among their best. Reminds you of your grandma's kitchen? My grandma would have been ashamed. Baugher's tries to do so much that everything is done poorly. One look from the roadside and you can see how hard they try to be everything for everyone, but instead result in a dismal product. Garbage. read more

As a person that has worked in the industry for 16 years, never in my life have I had such a terrible experience. The way a staff member (I'm guessing he was the manager, an old white man) yelled at a group of us was out of pocket, totally disgusting and uncalled for. I could go on and on but I'll leave it at that. Please do not support this place if you are a decent human being, unlike the heathen we experienced today. read more

You will find really good, cheap road food at this farmers market/ pick-your-own orchard/ diner/ tourist trap. When business takes me to Westminster, this is where I like to go for lunch. I recommend the hot turkey sandwich; the turkey is homemade, and moist and tender. The fries are cut fresh, and served with gravy if you want. On a previous visit, I had a hot hamburger sandwich, which was aesthetically a hot mess. It tasted a whole lot better than it looked, The pies and the ice cream are made on premises, although I have not yet given them a try. read more

On Saturday morning my husband, cousin and I headed to Carroll County for a morning of apple picking when, unfortunately, the skies opened up and it started to rain. Despite it being only a light drizzle we were told that apple picking was called off for the day, even once the rain stopped, because it would be muddy. (You would think that the fact that it was muddy would be more of a concern to me than them but evidently they have strict orchard rules...) Since we were in the area, anyway, we decided to make the best of the day by heading to Baugher's for lunch! I used to come here a lot as a little girl and have a lot of really fond memories, despite the apple head man being borderline terrifying to look at. Neither my husband nor cousin had ever been here, so I was excited to show them this down home, country, farm restaurant! Pretty much everything was exactly as I had remembered. It's very much no frills, and is a cross between a Cracker Barrel and a local diner. It's a great place for big portions and comfort food. My husband and I each got burgers, which were fine, albeit nothing to write home about. They also don't come with fries or anything, so we split a side basket of fries (which was enough for 2 people to share). The fries were much more impressive because you could tell that they were hand cut. My cousin got the hot hamburger, which is essentially a hamburger and fries completely and utterly slathered in gravy. Personally, I strongly dislike gravy, so even looking at it made my stomach turn a little bit. I mean, this was a LOT of gravy. She, on the other hand, LOVES gravy and ultimately loved this meal. If you love gravy.... just check out the photo..... We were too stuffed for a slice of pie or ice cream, which is kind of a shame because I remember the pies being really good. Because the burger was just fair I would actually come back just for fries and pie one day. (Fries and pies!) We went to the little market next door, which was really nice. The veggies looked great and there was a really good selection. We picked up apple cider doughnuts and a small sugar free apple pie to bring home. Both were not very good. Like, at all. The apple cider doughnuts we actually ended up throwing out because they were so dry. I wouldn't say anyone should go out of their way to come here, but if you're in the area and looking for a good, hearty meal then this is a place that probably won't disappoint. Also I would totally come back here just for the fresh produce!!! If you're in Westminster why would you go to the supermarket for veggies when you could just stop here and get it straight from the farm? read more

Eating here is the equivalent to eating a pile of dirt. The floors are always sticky, not only that I have had bugs in my food multiple times. They're "homemade" ice cream is really Turkey Hill. Every inch of this establishment is dirty, covered in bugs, and i wouldn't be surprised if their apple juice was pee. Eating here is a crime to one's healt. read more

I have been going to Baugher's for 35 years. It's plain, not fancy, country food, which was always good. The last few years it has been hit & miss. I had lots of lunches and breakfasts. I love giving good reviews. But today I got take out lunch, a salad and beverages. It was horrible! Lettuce, way too many onions. Tomato slices were almost rotten. Dressing was not very good. I got water and juice. Water bottle was very dented and was so bad I couldn't drink, i.e. made me cough and spit up slimy bubbles. Had a bad taste in my mouth for hours. Can't imagine what was in it. Juice was horrid also, and had grit in the bottom of the cup. Rarely have I had a bad breakfast, BUT lunch is a shift change, hmm. I may go back for breakfast, as soon as I get the bad taste out of my mouth. Literally and figuratively. read more

So this is a fun place to visit they have a fruit market with lots of local goods. They also have a restaurant. We went to both the market very very nice with plenty of fresh local fruits and vegetables. The restaurant was straight up comfort food I got the roast beef with gravy and mashed potatoes. Everything was great. My wife got the hot turkey and I wish I would have gotten that. The gravy tasted great and one plate was enough turkey for two people also cooked great. read more

Not tottaly satisfied. We waited 35 minutes to be sitted and 35 additional minutes for the food to be served. While waiting there was no any entretainment( music),The restrooms had paper all over the floor,it looked messy ( the appearance was not clean). Flies were in the dinning area while we were eating. Not sure I'll come back ever again. read more

I was debating between a 3 and 4 for awhile because I was utterly SO happy eating here. The service was super friendly and very attentive, and they are SO generous here (giving us pitchers of apple cider, lots of fresh rolls, and separating our checks for us, etc). The food was good (but not amazingly good) but I love the feel of this restaurant! It's a place to get good, home style meals at a cheap price. Their rolls are TO DIE FOR- AMAZING!!! Especially if they're served hot out of the oven, they literally melt in your mouth, with a slab of salted butter- crazy good. So soft and delicious!!! Their fried chicken was good- fried to order- crispy skin and juicy meat. I got their 4 piece entree served with 2 sides- their corn fritters were DELISH, kernels of corn in a cream sauce, fried crispy in a thin batter. Their mac and cheese was just OK- kind of lumped together in a thick, Velveeta-like sauce. One of my friends thought the friend chicken was a bit bland, but I thought it was good. Apple crumble for dessert a la mode- delish!!! Baked-down apples topped with a sugary crunchy crust. Their other pies (apple, pumpkin) were good, but their pecan pie wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Check this place out if you're in the area, especially if you want a cheap, home-style meal, after picking fruit at Baugher's Orchards!!! read more

Very good home cooked meals, but the best part of every visit is their outstanding pies. Have never had a meal that I didn't like

Baugher's is a local Westminster favorite. If you like the throwback country style atmosphere, you'll be pretty happy here. They have a lot of good home style country food. The pies are a great example. I came here for the breakfast menu for the first time. They have everything you would want for breakfast at decent prices. I ordered the four layer, a small omelet topped with shredded American cheese, home fries and country sausage gravy. It was decent. The cheese was ok. The home fries were small circular potato slices that were overly fried. I like the concept of the dish overall mainly because everything was covered in sausage gravy. The Gravy was king. read more
