The cool chrome/glass/LED lighting caught our attention as we drove past on an evening. We were…read morestaying in the Lancaster area. We were looking for a place and found it! Classic music for a diner of that era look was being played. The food portions were large and delicious. I had a Cuban hotdog. It was enormous and unique. My wife said the Belgian waffle would've been excellent by itself. Add to it the toppings and it was fantastic. You'll have to go check it out. Our server was new and yet still incredibly helpful, professional, friendly, and honest. We liked it so much we brought our family back the next day after an archery tournament at Spooky Nook. My biggest problem with it was that there is not one where I live four hours away! Whenever in Lancaster we will go back! Oh yeah, and it's open 24/7.

Overall the food was ok Could have been hotter…read more portions are pretty big. 2 stars because the service was beyond horrible!!! My number one pet peeve being sat and not being recognized watching another table get sat after me and be greeted by their server... I had a salad with the open face pot roast and mashed potatoes My wife had a cheesesteak with onion rings. While eating my salad my one paper napkin got a bit soiled- I asked for more napkins. Hot food came out- No napkin Fries instead of onion rings Empty salad plate left on table- I was just about done and finally my wife flagged the server down and asked for more napkins- Still no onion rings... By the time the cold onion rings arrived we were done!!! I might go back food was good enough but I will make sure I do not have the same server...

There is a lot to like about an old fashioned diner that has been here since 1941 without much…read morechanged. My 91 year old mother came here as a child with her dad in the '40s when they came to the city for doctor appts and she said it looks just the same. This place looks antiquated, and on the negative side I did not see a ramp or any handicap access. My mom was able to lift her walker up and down the 2 stone steps. The doors are heavy and the entrance narrow. The bathrooms could accommodate a wheelchair if the doors weren't so narrow. I imagine they have some kind of historical variance allowing them to be so inaccessible. Service was slow but with a smile. Servers were friendly and fellow diners chatty as well. Most food offerings are $10 or less. I ordered a blueberry pancake, plate sized and full of blueberries. I wanted to put butter on it but those hard little butter pats were not going to work. My mom also got pancakes. They were filling, not particularly yummy but considering our total bill was under $20 including iced teas I didn't complain. Some of the desserts looked yummy. Apparently there is an attached space for possibly a larger party but it was closed for construction. Otherwise it is pretty much booth space for 4 or the counter. I was glad we chose to stop in here if only for the nostalgia of it. Can't really see why we would go back. But inexpensive breakfast fare keeps a steady stream of regulars!

Park City Diner, Lancaster PA…read more Location: 884 Plaza Blvd, Lancaster, PA 17601, in Parkview Plaza. Hours : 24 hrs Restrooms : inside the diner, strollers and wheelchairs accessible just tighter space Accessibility : dining area are strollers and wheelchairs accessible, just in tighter space Parking : parking lot free around the building ℹ : parkcitydiner.us Adored that they open 24 hrs and always offered delicious and freshly cooked meals. The friendly staffs and clean restaurants and the warmth of the interior decorations. Favorites meals: #1. Lobster bisque in a bowl is another must order soup for each visit, if they have it. Each bites of soup always got the lobster chunks. #2. Dinners roll are the best rolls, very soft and fresh, always served warm complete with a plate full of butter. #3. House salad as a side dish but the portions looks like an entree size, always served fresh all the times #4. meatballs casserole was delicious, the generous portions of meatballs, sauce and cheese filled the whole plate, and the garlic bread was super crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside. We couldn't even finish everything and went home with so many leftovers. #5. Seafood jambalaya is another must try to order entree, the shrimps sizes are huge and all over the plates, also served in generous size. #6. Fish and chips is another must order entree, the fish was fresh and full of flavor on the inside and crispy and crunchy on the outside, complete with their famous french fries as the sides. It's perfect! #6. The last MUST order was the fried chicken, it's just the best fried chicken we ever had and never leave this diner without having these as our meal. No words to describe unless you tried it yourself. We will be back for more delicious food here. #parkcitydiner #dinerlancasterpa #preservefootprints

Unfortunately we came when they were doing some renovations and we had to order from the food stand parked on the sidewalk. So atmosphere was ehhh. The servers didn't really have a lot of customer service, they didn't smile at all or greet which that could always be polished a bit, but the food was decent. Fries could be a bit more crispier for me but other than that great place to come eat!

Introduction:…read more Representing 2018 in alphabet series, O is for On Orange. The letter O only has 5 of the 8 possible years represented in the alphabet series. Interestingly, 2 of them are in Lancaster County, PA. This was prior to my parents moving to Lancaster in 2021. In March 2018, my girlfriend of that time & I took a day trip to Lancaster. I lived in Montgomery County, Maryland (near DC) at the time, and we were meeting up with a friend who was living in New Jersey kind of in the middle. We agreed to meet at On Orange at 12 PM on that Sunday, March 25 since we were driving from far away, and I think they were doing a day trip too, but possible they stayed a night in town, not sure. Also, On Orange closes at 1 PM too, so even more reason to be punctual. My g/f of then was notoriously late & took a long time to get ready. She was taking too long to get ready, and I knew we needed to leave if we even had a chance of making it on time. After a while I said I don't want to do this, but I will leave without you & meet my friend (& his girlfriend). I started the car and texted you have 1 minute to come out, and if you aren't out, I'm leaving without you. My timer reached 0, and I slowly was driving off, but I saw her shuffling with her coat and what have you leaving, so I waited. We got in the car, and I rushed off. If that weren't bad enough, my g/f said we needed to stop at her bank to get cash. Of course, there was none right within route, but saw a location right off I-83 in northern MD, Hunt Valley, but we wasted more time to get off the freeway, for her to go to her ATM, & get back on the freeway when we were running significantly late. I said we are running significantly late as it is, so why are we wasting more time. She claimed in case there was something she wanted to buy in Lancaster, but that was not the primary purpose, but I'll get to that at the end. I was panicking on the significant late, and that the restaurant closes at 1, and I drove above 100 mph at times on I-70, which I think was the only time I've ever gone that fast on 70, and maybe only 4 times ever in my life reaching that speed. Experience with the Restaurant: This is street parking around here, which was free meters on Sunday. We got a decent parking spot a block away. We walked in at 12:50 PM, which was 50 minutes LATE and 10 minutes before On Orange's closing time of 1 PM. My friend & his girlfriend were already done eating. He said that they had their stomach set for eating at 12, and there was pressure to order since it's not a huge place and pretty busy. I was annoyed with my friend for not waiting for us, but I get it because let's be honest, my g/f fault on that one. Server was cordial, and my g/f & I quickly ordered. Food came out quickly. We ate quickly, and my friend & his g/f watching us eat. Food was delicious, and they were quick, but to be fair, they were closing in 10 minutes, so they were motivated to get out of there. I got a pancake & egg dish as I recall. This was a top notch brunch. In spite of the negative experience of being so late because of my g/f, the experience at the restaurant was excellent. Conclusion: After brunch, we looked around downtown, Amish Farm (see my 5-star review of them written in April 2018), etc. and was overall a nice day with the 3 of them albeit very cold. After we left, I took the back road from I-83 all the way back to Germantown, MD where she lived to see something different and to save a little gas too since it's pretty direct going that way. My g/f was complaining about it taking so long getting back. I knew she was meeting up with a friend that night. But what I later realized, she wanted to stop at an ATM that morning really because she needed cash to pay that friend for cannabis that night. So, she disrespected everyone's time for this. I guess on a positive at least she wasn't cheating on me with that guy and really was just for pot. In conclusion, I thought On Orange was top notch, and they were accommodating to our time schedules.

Outside, in below freezing weather with 6 kids including a 2 year old and my 5 month old baby. Complete and utter lack of common sense or customer service! We immediately googled different options (luckily found Bespoke Brewing nearby who were amazing!!) We thought the decor was so fun and we were looking forward to experiencing Taste of the 50s, but the staff made sure we would not. 0/10 do NOT recommend!! Have not experienced terrible customer service like this in a while. Maybe it was like that in the 50s, in that case I guess we DID get a taste of the 50s after all.

The highlight was definitely the Knuckle Burger -- the bacon was cooked perfectly, the burger was juicy, and it came out piping hot. The service was friendly and quick, and our food arrived fresh and hot, which we really appreciated. Overall, a fun diner experience with great vibes, good food, and excellent service.
