    Special - chicken teriyaki...nice flavors! This is a 1/2 portion.
    Kendra S.

    As always I enjoyed lunch at Fox Meadows. I enjoy ordering their specials and today's chicken teriyaki was tasty. I got a 1/2 portion with a pick 2 option of ice cream and I left the restaurant VERY full. We ate there on a busy Monday, but we were able to get a small table after watching to see when someone was leaving. Service was friendly and surprisingly quick considering how busy they were! The ice cream flavors were great...I love the ice cream flights!

    Fox Meadows is one of those places that just feels special! From the views at sunset to the smell of fresh waffle cones drifting through the air. Everything here, from their ice cream to their lunch menu, is consistently delicious and keeps us coming back again and again. The pumpkin roll Baked Fox with toasted oak and southern caramel ice cream is absolute perfection!! It's warm, creamy, and perfectly seasonal. Their sweet potato fries are a must-order every single time (and trust me, you have to get the honey mustard with them). The toasted cheeseburger is ooey, gooey, and ridiculously cheesy in the best way. Right now, they're even offering a free upgrade from chips to hand-cut fries, which is such a nice touch. And don't sleep on the red cream soda it's nostalgic and refreshing. It can get really packed, especially on weekends, but the line moves quickly and the staff keeps everything running smoothly. Between the playground for kids, heated porch seating, and cozy indoor area, there's a spot for everyone. Fox Meadows isn't just a creamery it's a staple in my local restaurant rotation. Great food, friendly faces, and the best kind of small-town charm.

    This place is wonderful! We first tried the one in Leola and when we saw there was one nearby where we were in Ephrata, we had to make the stop! This place was very cozy and airy. The soft pretzels were delicious as was my favorite flavor - the brown butter almond brickle! Yum! Enjoyed it so much I needed to bring some home to NY! My husband's new favorite vanilla (ever) is their Madagascar vanilla and my little guy loved them both and his soft pretzel! We also tried the salted caramel pretzel ice cream (I think) and the chocolate covered strawberry flavor which really did taste like one! The staff here were super sweet and really nice! Heading back to PA soon and planning to hit up both spots again!

    Honey lavender: strong lavender (which I personally like) Mango sticky rice: think creamy mango + subtle coconut (no chewy bits of rice) Key lime pie sorbet: refreshing, specks of graham cracker but only for aesthetic not taste Chocolate dipped strawberry (did not personally try this as I don't like mixing fruit & chocolate but according to friends): really nice combo of dark chocolate + strawberry Did not personally visit so cannot say what the service or vibe is like but the prices are good for local ice cream! But MUST get the waffle bowl if you like that kinda stuff. Perfect balance of sweet, crisp, baked flavor. FYI: closed on Sundays, ice creams feel creamy yet light/fluffy in the best way

    Insanely delicious fresh creamy tasty ice cream. Wanted to try some unique flavors I haven't tried before and they did not disappoint. The honey lavender and orchard peach were amazing!! My friend also tried the classic cookie brownie and cookies and cream which were also amazing. The prices here are also insanely affordable (at least compared to what I'm used to in NYC). They had long lines but lots of seating and good gift shop area to keep guests amused as they waited. Cute farm area nearby and pumpkin patch as well. Would totally come here again if I was in the area. Only one word: amazing.

    Large selection of ice cream flavors to pick from plus other items like soft pretzels and sandwiches. They have a decent amount of seating inside and out. A small shop with local goods. You should also expect a line because it's so popular but it moves fast. The employees are very nice and do a great job. This is worth a trip if you want some homemade ice cream!

    The food and especially their many varied ice cream flavors (like lavender) and waffle bowls with Wilbur chocolate wafers stand out above other ice cream places. The service is also very friendly. The down side is it can be crowded and their menu and lines formations are confusing. I took my daughter had a good time they also have small play area in back.

    Very popular and busy
    Saira K.

    Excellent place! Don't miss it! There's a line almost out the door, and it's easy to understand why! You'll wait in line for almost 45 minutes but it's fun because you're talking to people from all over the country. It's big so even though there are so many people it's not crowded. There's seating inside and outside, where there are fields. There's a lot of parking. The ice cream was amazing! Large scoops! There are all sorts of treats like roasted coffee in milkshakes. The lavender honey was amazing - one of the best flavors I've ever had, and I am not really a fan of lavender. Don't miss this place!!!

    Sampler plate - like a flight of beers, only better!!

    Great food. Even better ice cream!! I had a pannini sandwich and the tomato bisque soup. The soup was excellent, and I have had plenty of tomato bisque in the past. As for the ice cream, you would be hard pressed to find any better. Many unique flavors from which to choose.

    Just a few of the ice cream flavors.
    Steve R.

    This is a hugely popular place for good reason! The food, service and ambience are all top notch!! The ice cream is out of this world as would be expected from a family owned creamery, but the biggest surprise for me are the other edible treats like melt-in-your-mouth soft pretzels, pancake mix, various popcorn flavors, and a full lunch service area with soups, sandwiches and so much more!! This is located in an adorable, well kept building, has indoor and outdoor seating, and more than enough parking so that you can relax and enjoy yourself. They're open every day from 11am - 9pm, so plan your visit accordingly! We'll definitely be back.

    Lives up to the hype Cool modern building, man. Place is hoppin' on a summer day but the line moves fast, like a Chick-fil-a. Nice open space with high ceilings so it doesn't feel stuffy. I wasn't smelling anyones BO, just ice cream and coffee goodness. Large readable menu. Lots of interesting ice cream flavors. Nothing crazy but they all seem to have a bit of twist than the usual. Btw, some sort of rum raisin would be nice. Love the Affogato and also the Roasted Milkshakes option. Shakes come with a large plastic straw the way God intended. Friendly service and prices seemed very reasonable. Composite deck that wraps around outside. Plenty of seating and parking. Even had a horse and buggy parked with the horse just staring at an open field vibing. No I didn't feed him as he could be diabetic like Buttercup. But he seemed to be in his comfort zone. You kinda have to stop here if you're in the area.

    Pumpkin crème brûlée ice cream
    Kelley ..

    By far my favorite Lancaster County PA ice cream! Autumn seasonal flavors pumpkin crème brûlée, pumpkin cheesecake, campfire smores, apple cider sorbet.... Yummy!

    Baked Fox
    Madison G.

    Why did it take me so long to come here?! This place was BUSY (as I knew it would be) - but the line moved very quickly and efficiently. These employees know what they are doing to keep everything rolling - and they are so friendly and helpful! I had a Baked Fox (hot pressed outer shell with ice cream inside). I had the brownie outer shell with one of the featured ice cream flavors - dirt pudding. This. Thing. Was. Amazing. Love that they have indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor area provides a beautiful Lancaster County farm view. Very peaceful! Can't wait to return here to try their lunch menu!

    We got the waffle bowl which fit four large scoops of ice cream. We were so happy!

Came here on a Monday just after 10:30am and they honored our breakfast order. The lunch menu starts promptly at 11am so this was really nice of them. The place is so cute! It's got a country/hipster vibe. I was pleasantly surprised that they had a bar! :) My one issue with breakfast was that I asked for butter and was given butter packets. We came here thinking we were having fresh Amish butter, nope! - What a disappointment! Ugh. The reason why I'm giving this place 3 stars is because of the weird smell. Walking in I thought maybe we walked in right after a gassy person but as we walked through the restaurant to the back the smell was still consistent. We got to the table and the smell seemed to go away or at least we got used to it. At one point I had to use the bathroom and while walking around to find it, the smell hit me first. I was able to smell my way there. Once walking out I was sick. My husband also had to use the e bathroom but the smell was too strong for him so we went stopped elsewhere. The place has a smell that's a mixture of plug-ins and poop. It's the weirdest thing. I'm not sure if they were having sewer issues today or what happened. It seemed like they were definitely aware of the issue because the smell of several plug-ins or air fresheners was obvious. I'd like to give this place another try since the ambiance, food, and staff were all great but the odor is a dealbreaker for me. I guess I'd have to go back & see if this issue gets resolved, if not, I would not stay a second time.

The lunch/dinner offerings include sandwiches, burgers, subs, seafood, salads, soups, chili, quesadillas, fried foods, pasta dishes, meatloaf, turkey dinner, chicken dinners, roast beef, pork dishes, and desserts. They offer daily specials too including weekday breakfast & lunch specials I stopped by Ark House on a rainy afternoon. I arrived here and the place wasn't too busy after the lunch rush. I was seated in a booth and given a menu to look at. I requested an ice water and ordered the Shrimp Parm with Spaghetti ($14.99 plus tax) with choice of one side (chose mac & cheese) and garlic toast. The food came out in 12 minutes after I ordered. The portion of food was good which was comprised of 8 breaded jumbo shrimp topped with red sauce & melted cheese with a side of soft cooked spaghetti with a sweet meat sauce. The mac & cheese (orange) was very dense and rich. The thick slices of garlic toast were soft and buttery. After I was done, the check was brought over which was $15.89 with tax and before tip. I paid at the front register. Overall, the food I had was fantastic and I was a bit torn whether to choose a pasta dish or a traditional country homestyle meal. The shrimp parm was very tasty and hot as was the mac & cheese. The service was friendly and adequate. I was glad I stopped here instead of going to a smorgasbord restaurant, which was very packed and pricey. The meal I had at Ark House Diner was pretty reasonable.

Seemed nice enough, but the off vibe was detected immediately upon entering the empty lobby. The hostess appeared after a few minutes and told us there would be a ten minute wait. It made no sense when ten minutes later we were led to a table at the back of the nearly empty dining room. Right next to a table occupied by a large family. A 6 or 7 year old boy was flinging his jacket in the air trying to land it on one of the beams. The adults seemed to think his efforts were in vain and were ignoring him, so two more joined in the fun. The hostess had already abandoned us. Not wanting that jacket to land on my dinner, I looked at my partner and loudly said " Hell no". A waiter caught my eye and waved us to another table. It was five or ten more minutes before the other server showed up. Partner went with a cheesesteak and I ordered the turkey and Brie. After waiting 20 minutes , I start counting. Besides us and the large family, there were two tables getting their take out containers and us three waiting for food. Seemed like a light load for two servers, a hostess and busser. The wait for the table and easy food orders seemed a bit much. So more than half hour after ordering, our food arrives. Partner said his cheesesteak was surprisingly good. Neither of us like the old bay on the chips. My fries were okay. The turkey was the funky deli kind with a rind. The edges,got a little dried out. On the grill or under the hot light. Either way not a good thing.
