Staff is friendly & food is great!! They also have a frig in the back with soups & baked goods for sale to take home.

Super awesome table service as well as the cooks and management. The food and bakery products are out of this world. Definitely % recommend. read more

we are never disappointed when we visit Central Manor. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Food Is great!!

I love the mart! It is a tradition to go there in lots of people's families, including mine. The service is incredible, they make your food so fast! The BLT's are Amazing! I love this place! read more

The Groffs Chocolate shop recommended this place to purchase baked goods. But when I was there I decided to have lunch. It looked very friendly and all other customers looked happy. Sooo glad I stayed there. The food was delicious and the service was great. Plan on stopping by soon again. read more

I've been here for breakfast and lunch a few times and found the food delicious and service wonderful. Breakfast is my favorite and it's good portions and priced right. Their bakery items are worth the visit too. Small hometown type restaurant !! read more

Love the soups and other items to go.. It's great food ar a great price! i wish the hours were longer, I'd go much more!

Sat at a table over 15 minutes & never got waited on...never acknowledged. Servers need training. We left & went elsewhere.

This delightfully down-to-earth and truly special place is called by a less formal name by locals (or those who grew up eating there every Summer) as "The Manor Mart". Just 168 miles from Manhattan, if you ever find yourself in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and are exhausted of chirpy tour guides or vow never to look at another quilt so long as you live, decide you retroactively and proactively HATE that movie Witness and want to sample real, unpretentious and sincere vittles, this is where you want to be. For years, while attending a nearby Family Reunion, my cousins, siblings and friends would dash past the cornfields and across the road, the hum of the airconditioner unit promising cool respite from the August humidity. Watch yourself now - the parking lot is small and unevenly paved; you'll find the porch paint peeling and the porch itself may lean to the side a little... but sometimes the most satisfying gustatory experiences are packaged in the most unassuming wrappers. The Manor Mart is a combination Bakery, Grill, Convenience Store and Sit-Down Diner. Forget counting carbs and calories and just GO FOR IT! This is, afterall, the land of scrapple and sticky buns. The griddle is hot and your choice of breakfast will be generous enough to keep you going 'til the end of the barn raising you may have foolishly signed up for as part of your "Dutch Pennsylvania Experience Premium Tour Package". For a treat, order the Fried Sticky Buns - which are essentially grilled sweet rolls - hot, dripping caramelized sugar glaze and absolutely divine. Hot and cold sammiches are made to order, though I can't resist the Creamed Chipped Beef over Toast. Finish the whole thing right before you leave for the airport, and you won't need a sedative to snooze peacefully all the way home. Food coma! Whoopie Pies are another regional sweet: cream sandwiched between soft rounds of cake that look like giant cookies. Chug some Turkey Hill Iced Tea (regular or lemon) and get some for the road. It is a bit of an acquired taste: more like Southern Sweet Tea - but nothing quenches your thirst better in the Summer, this I promise. As long as we're talking Turkey...Hill, check the display case for the ever-rotating flavors of this local dairy's ice cream, and for those of you unfamiliar with the local terminology, order "A double DIP" - don't say scoop, or you'll give yourself away. That, and your Nikon D80, oversized sunnies, and LV luggage! Pie is a must, and can be eaten at ANY time of the day; with any meal, or just because. My favorites are: * Montgomery - deep with dark molasses * Pee-can - crispy+crusty and redolent with eye-rolling nuttinesss * Sour Cherry that is fantastically acerbic and tastes of wine * Black Bottom Pie so dense and chocolaty * Shoo-Fly Pie: another revelation - smooth, dense molasses topped with the most incredible crumble on top * Rhubarb - fantastic in the summer, a la mode * Huckleberry - ibid * Walnut - dense and the flavor profile comes through beautifully * Peach - grown locally and nothing short of delightful and summery The food is unpretentious, prepared with pride and in the traditional manner. It's a little out of the way from the more urban cities in Pennsylvania, but the authenticity of the experience speaks for itself. 717 - in the hizzouse! read more

I love the Chocolate/Peanut butter cake; I've been ordering it for years! Unfortunately, this order wasn't as predicted. We ordered a chocolate/PB cake with happy anniversary on it. I wasn't informed that the decorations on the cake wouldn't be Made with the same Icing. Simple error on both ends. They didn't explain and I didn't ask! I am giving 2.5 stars because this could easily be fixed the woman I spoke seemed more into expressing that the decorations are always made in white icing rather than saying something along the line of "how can we fix this." To us, white icing really took over the PB taste. Customer service goes a long way for me! 2.5 stars read more

Very good home cooked food and baked goods, love going there to eat and then browse the delicious baked goods. Atmosphere is very homelike, prices are great, people working there very nice and personable. I have ordered cakes and was never disappointed, so good. The restaurant is not fancy in anyway, so if your looking for ambience don't go. It a hometown restaurant with great food! No coat and tie, wear what you want as long as it fits their rules. read more

A hidden gem in the most beautiful part of Lancaster County. Breakfast's are packed with locals and if you're really lucky you will get there for lunch on a Thursday and the special will be chicken and waffles or chicken pie (it rotates weekly). The rest of the menu is great and the staff is friendly and hard working. But the best part is the pies and other baked goods so save room. Red velvet cake and Montgomery pie are amazing. A big secret is that their wedding cakes are really nice and much less expensive than other local bakeries. After you've eaten take a drive west to the river and enjoy the scenery. read more

Let me start off by saying, I live right down the road so I go there often. The food is always good. For breakfast, french toast is a must! For lunch, the chicken ranch wrap is the best. Their cakes and baked goods are the BOMB! My family always gets birthday cakes from here. The chilli and cheesy bacon potato soups are awesome( I only mentioned these two because i loved these two so much that I don't even want to try any others). When we dine here, the waitresses remember what we drink and how we like our food. I think that says how good the service is here. Favorite place to eat by a longshot. read more

I called & ordered a cake on September 15th from Central Manor Bakery & Grill. They would not give me a price at that time, I ask that they call me with a price before making the cake. They called me September 28th, I returned their call promptly & cancelled the cake because it was way more then I wanted to pay. The gal I spoke to called me back & said it was too late to cancel the order,I again stated that I specifically ask for a phone call for the price....which they did....but, why call 2 days before I need the cake if I don't have the option of cancelling the order??? They then told me that if I cancel this order the 2nd cake I ordered will also be cancelled. I cancelled both orders. Just fyi....I'm all for buying local. Unbelievable way of doing business. I don't recommend ordering any cakes unless you have an unlimited budget. P.S. I was able to confirm when I ordered the cake just by looking at my call log..... read more

Nice little stop in the middle of no where between Millersville and West Lancaster. Compared to earlier reviews the place was spotless, floors had a glossy shine, tables and chairs were clean, bathroom was spotless. Had a really hard time staying away from the fresh baked goods, good prices and a lot to choose from. Maybe next trip I stock up on the woopie pies and the cookies. Order three blueberry pancakes and a side of bacon. They still have the syrup packs but the pancakes were thick and cake like with a lot of blueberries. Couldn't breathe on the way to the car. Definitely a local stop as there is not another eatery within miles. read more

The staff there is wonderful and very helpful and informative. However, the food leaves something to be desired. I stopped by and bought a milk shake and 2 frozen chicken pies. The milkshake's ingredients were fine, but there was quite a lot of ice crystals in it. It was almost as if the ice cream thawed and was then re-frozen instead of being discarded. The chicken pies had LOTS of vegetables (esp.potatoes), but almost NO CHICKEN. There were some shredded bits of chicken and one solid piece, aprox 1/4" x 1/4" x 3/4". This in a pie that should have served two people. Yes, it was quite tasty and only $5, but it would be better listed as a vegetable pie with chicken flavoring. read more

This is a great place!! I've past this place on the way to Millersville University, to visit my daughter. I love Turkey Dinners. I ordered them just about anywhere they are offered in Pennsylvania Dutch co. When I got a to go dinner, I thought well it's probably like what I usually get. It was a bit more expensive, so I was little leary. Anyway, when I got home, I couldn't believe my eyes! It was all home made!!! The portions were extremely large!! Thursday are their meal days!! So if your hungry for pa Dutch food, check this out!! You will be greatly satisfied!! read more

Quick service. Good food. Not very many seats. Most things about this place are great accept for the waitresses. They are sort of grumpy and that didn't make me very happy. On the other hand, the food is fantastic. If you come here ask for a slice of chocolate cake with peanut butter icing. I only have one word that describes it... HEAVENLY read more

I've lived in Lancaster County for many years and I've always wanted to try the Central Manor Mart, so we meandered over for breakfast on a recent Saturday. Since we hadn't been there before, we asked the girl at the register if it was hostess or self-seating. She looked confused and told us "self"... I guess because most guests are regulars. After we waited for 10 minutes, she came to our table and asked what we wanted to order. We asked for menus which also seemed to confuse her. The food was inexpensive and delicious, so no complaints there! However, she never returned to our table and asked how our meals were or if we wanted drink refills or anything else. After we finished eating, we made eye contact with her a few times but she never came to the table. We finally asked another server if she could bring us our check. So... delicious food, great prices. I'm willing to give it another try to see if service is better. read more

I have a hard time writing reviews of places in Lancaster, since I grew up there and attach sentimental value to all of them. That being said, the Mart has the best burgers in Lancaster County - I've had all of them - and they give roadside whoopie pies a run for their money. Their selection of Turkey Hill tea is unmatched, and there's nowhere else I'd rather go anywhere for breakfast. I'm only in town once or twice a year now, and the Mart is still always at the top of my list of places I have to check in on. read more

Ok I have to be honest..I don't know why this place has such high ratings and I probably won't ever. Apparently yelp does this thing where they show you " recommended reviews" and hide others. Go look at the others, they're mostly negative. This place is cute on the outside but it is filthy! The carpets are littered with dining refuse and dirt, and tables and chairs don't look like they've been wiped down...I got a good milkshake but this place needs a serious overhaul/better front of house management. read more

Really wish I had a similar experience to the other raters. I took my family there for breakfast and was really disappointed. The blueberry pancakes had very little flavor and seemed like they just served us flour. They only served individual packets of Log Cabin maple syrup (i.e. cheap). The omelettes were also disappointing. Seems like a quaint local place which I try to seek out but we will likely not be back. read more

Amazing! An excellent tasting, beautiful looking, and affordable cake was purchased here for my wedding. The staff could not of been more friendly or helpful. Cake was delivered promptly and every guest was complimentary. Quant atmosphere and tasty breakfast dinning, too. Defiantly stop in for a great breakfast or a delicious cake! read more

disgusting food, everything is frozen or rancid, is like an episode of kitchen nightmares before ramsey shows up. the new exterior wont hide the bad food inside read more
