The following is review with some "ups and downs". The ups begin with the entrance. Quite a few…read moresteps on the front, but the sign says use the entrance to the side. Still two steps over there. So in fact, there is no handicap access for someone in a wheelchair. Fortunately, I am able to use a cane and was able to ascend a few stairs to the interior. Inside is a small restaurant with a counter for ordering and a handful of tables for seating if eating there. We stood at the order counter several minutes before anyone acknowledged our presence. In their defense, they were busy filling orders, placing to go orders on their warming area, and continuing to cook. Finally, the "cook" looked over & said, "I apologize for the wait, we'll will be with you in a minute." The young person who finally took our order seemed a bit inexperienced, but we weren't in much of a rush. Nevertheless, there still were several slip ups in our order. My wife ordered a BLT. When they asked if she wanted it on white or wheat, she said, "white, please, toasted and no onion." What she didn't realize (my wife) was that white or wheat meant a brioche style hamburger bun not traditional sliced bread. That was not clear until we asked after being served -- and were told they don't use "regular bread". Second hiccup in this order was that while the sandwich had a wonderful abundance of bacon... I mean a load!... Somehow they not only left off the onion but also was no tomato! It ended up being a bacon, lettuce and mayo sandwich on a bun. So back to the counter to ask them for several slices of tomato. (Apology accepted.) My order was for a Philly-style cheesesteak with Cooper cheese. It came very hot, juicy, and quite yummy. In fact, it was too big for me to finish. So once again, the general generosity with fillings and toppings was top-notch. Prices were very reasonable and I would encourage you to go and try it. If in the area, we likely will come back as well. As a side note, my wife worked as a server at this restaurant 68 years ago when she was a teenager! Different name back then for both the restaurant and for her. Fond memories.

Maybe more, I just can't remember when he worked while in Lancaster. It's been too long. Every time I had tried to come check this place out, they were closed. Do, definitely check out their hours before coming here. I just so happened to be in Lancaster during the week and swung by. The place is nondescript and kind of a hidden spot. It's quite reminiscent of an old pub when walking in. It's quiet. But it's a good spot to have lunch with a coworker. This is what I saw when I got here - a bunch of people eating lunch with their coworkers. I grabbed a salad and asked for all the veggies and the chili garlic sauce. It was delicious! I wasn't planning on eating lunch that day, but I didn't want to lose another chance of trying this place. I finished the salad. The sauce had a bit of horseradish or wasabi in it. There was a kick to it. It was a nice surprise. I had to eat quickly because it was about to downpour. I asked for a lid and they offered a bag for me, but I didn't take it. I just needed to run to my car quick. There is a parking garage two blocks north infront of the Hamilton Watch store. It's $2 to park for an hour. Would I come back again? Yes, I would. I would want to try their other options too. That sauce got me hooked.

Better luck today! I ended up calling before the dinner rush and had no issues with ordering over…read morethe phone. He took payment over the phone reducing contact. Disclaimer (because I know this is important for a lot of people) - the two gentlemen working were not properly wearing masks (both wearing below the chin). My order was not ready when I arrived, so I waited inside since the place was empty. *When* gloves were worn it was only on one hand and there were numerous times when no gloves were worn. Hand sanitizer is available and there is a plexiglass shield at the counter. The floor is well marked with 6ft social distancing stickers. I do not recall seeing any signage that states masks are required and I'm not sure if they are allowing dine-in. Not sure how they would do that because the restaurant is on the smaller side. Portion sizes are on point and everything traveled well, about a 20-25 minute drive. The shrimp were larger than expected, so that was a pleasant surprise.

It was amazing. The only thing I wasn't the biggest fan of was that the tail of the shrimp wasn't pealed. The shrimp was still really good though guess that's just my personal preference lol. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in Lancaster!

We opted for a Fried Whiting dinner and a Fried Perch dinner (son has been in his fish era). Went with Baked Mac and Cheese (x2), Beans and Rice, and Cole Slaw. The wait was reasonable and the place affords a comfortable space to sit and converse or browse Yelp. There was a steady flow of walk in traffic, placing orders and picking up. Several Dashers hurried in and were handled politely and in a timely manner. The minimal staff worked well moving orders from idea to delivery. Our meals were delivered hot from the kitchen and every bit as expected. Portion sizes were large. Food was fresh and flavorful. Hot food was hot, and cold food was served cold. This is one of my pet peeves so I took notice. We didn't enjoy any drinks with our meal but they do offer fountain drinks, Philly Ice? and maybe some lemonades. To wrap it up....Don't sleep on Pecan Tree Cafe. They have obviously been doing it for a while and have a good handle on delivering a quality food product. Service was a plus, front and back of the house staff were friendly and attentive. Be looking for them at this year's York State Fair where they will be taking their food to the fair, and soon coming to those of us on the east side of York. They will be a welcome addition to both!! Can't wait to go back and try some of the BBQ Beef Shirt Ribs!

Service: The young lady at the front was nice to us but we did have to wait around while she argued…read morewith a customer who was told the mango water ice was "normal" for her to take a bite and realize it was spicy. The customer requested for it to be exchanged for even just one scoop (she ordered a few scoops) so she could enjoy it w her child which was denied and she was made to seem like she was in the wrong. I think this was a great opportunity to just admit the mistake and exchange the customers ice cream for one she could actually enjoy and learn for future reference to clarify it's "spicy mango" ice. Additionally, the owner was called on speaker and he immediately spoke extremely rudely about the customer which made them more irate. This went on for about 10mins about 2 feet away from me while I was waiting to be attended. Early on, I offered to just pay for a new one and to please just give the lady a new water ice, the customer accepted but I was ignored by the employee and the argument continued. Very uncomfortable situation. Food: Got the shrimp cheesesteak, potato salad, and collard greens. I went in with high expectations, the food was good but not great. We heard of this place via social media so we were super excited to try something new. Between the service provided and the food not being mind blowing, I don't think I will be returning.
