Still can't resist stopping here on my way back from upstate NY. This time I had my grandmother with me, but the love for the Turkey Club must run in the family because that is also her go-to order. I always upgrade to onion rings (because they are fantastic), but she stuck with the fries, which were also great. read more

I'm a foodie and this place supplies everything that you could be craving and all while hitting the spot on everything from coffee refills to the coleslaw! Everything is GREAT! The service was very nice thanks to the kind old lady for serving me and my father! If you love the fall time, animals and small town vibe, then you will love the way you feel in there! I recommend if you are concerned of stopping on a roadtrip and wasting time for food, that you absolutely waste that read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - Food - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

As stated in my previous review --- there aren't too many options when you get this far north on route 15 in Pennsylvania. We really enjoyed our past visit and when passing by recently, around lunch time, we stopped in again. Our waitress was excellent -- as usual. This time I opted for the hot turkey sandwich and my wife got their famous turkey BLT. I also got coffee, which they provide in your own pot, which I liked. The turkey BLT is one of their staples, and it was really delicious with a smoky flavor. The hot turkey came with a side salad and mashed potatoes. You do not leave hungry and it's like Thanksgiving dinner all over. I upgraded my previous rating to 5 stars-if you like homestyle cooking, a diner like vibe and great service you'll love this place. All for around $15 per person plus tip. read more

We stop here about once every other year (minus pandemic times) and always love the very basic and traditional turkey dinners. They have been doing this for decades - the history is fascinating- and they have it down. Service is country friendly and accommodating. So if you want turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes maybe a veg, (they have other options too!) in a quiet, wood paneled roadside restaurant (big parking lot, gas station conveniently next door) stop in and enjoy the photos, food and friendly people! read more

The ambience was very relaxed. Diner style furnishings. Food was very tasty but not overdone with flavour. All very home made ingredients. Good thing to note is that most dinners have the ability to be made smaller sized too. Flash flooding had hit the surrounding communities just before we arrived and they opened up extra areas to take care of the locals and others displaced. Definitely would stop again! read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - Turkey & biscuits with a side of "filling" aka stuffing. Across is a small sized turkey and waffles. - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

Thanksgiving every day! Plus, they have birch beer on tap. I had their "turkey ranch" sub. First time I've ever had a turkey sub with carved turkey instead of lunch meat. Excellent!!! read more

Nicely decorated interior, bright and clean. We stopped here for lunch on our way from Tioga to Maryland. Good food, good service, nice ambiance, value for money. We had Maryland Style CrabCakes and Steak with Mushrooms. Both were good, nicely prepared. A good place for a stopover to refresh. It also has a gas station next to it. read more

Did take out and it was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! A must take stop.

Service was fast and friendly. We ordered the World famous turkey dinner. The meal consisted of turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, corn, and a side of rainbow sherbet. They usually serve it with cranberry sauce but they were out. Overall, the meal was pretty good. Not the same as homemade, but close enough. It also came with a side salad or coleslaw. Both were delicious and fresh. read more

Great food; great service; very clean; super nice staff; and has gas station next door. Planty of parking and has a wide open parking area lots of room for an RV or rig to park. Highly recommended mend it to those passing Thur the area. read more

What a great place enjoyed it every time I stopped been going there for 50 years. Nice little country restaurant not too little though. As a little store people are friendly service is great and the food melt. Let me tell you if you're hungry for Thanksgiving they got your six. read more

The home page of their website states that they use the "finest and freshest ingredients." Yet, the turkey slices in the "Famous Turkey Dinner" are dry and bland, the stuffing is made with sliced white sandwich bread, the cranberry relish comes in a neatly shaped cube (seemingly carved right out of a can), and the corn tastes like microwaved canned corn. I had an interest in ordering the Turkey and Waffles, but looking over other reviewers' pictures, I noticed that the waffles looked a bit Eggo-esque and instantly decided to skip this dish. The food ended up being a huge turn off, starting with the straight-out-of-the-bag bread rolls, syrupy iced tea, and watered down coffee, which was a shame because the staff was so kind and friendly. Even though this restaurant specializes in turkey dishes, I would actually recommend the "Turkey Ranch Chicken Special". It was way tastier than the "Famous Turkey Dinner," and actually might have been made from fresh ingredients. It consisted of a chicken breast topped with mushrooms, BBQ sauce, melted provolone, along with a side of nicely crisp fries. I think this experience would have been more like 3 stars if I had not tasted the turkey dinner plate. For the price, I expected better quality. However, the restaurant is conveniently located right off the highway, and would be a good option for hungry drivers after a long trip. read more

We stopped here on our drive home and couldn't have picked a better place. The food was great and the portions were large, which I appreciate. I ordered the Turkey and biscuits and added a side of filling (stuffing) with gravy. We are not from around here but would be regulars if we were. read more

Still great!! Just how my husband remembered it from his childhood!!! Thank you for the great service!

Good place to stop when traveling to take a quick break. Smoked Turkey wrap was good. Service was fast.

Abby did a fantastic job. The turkey is amazing and the prime rib was very good. The bathrooms were clean and stocked. The decor is old and that is the point of the place. Definitely a great place to sit down and relax at a table or booth. read more

Found this place by accident on the way to the PA Grand Canyon, so of course we had to stop for dinner on the way home. Went the #1 The Famous Turkey dinner and the Prime Rib Special!! Both had amazing taste and great portions of food. No room for dessert but the Reese Peanut Butter Pie sounded out of this world!! read more

We always stop here on our way home from a visit to my hometown of Wellsboro, PA. Husband always gets #1. I always get #26. What are they you ask? #1 is the fresh turkey dinner. Includes turkey, stuffing, gravy, cranberry sauce. He always gets the mashed potatoes, coleslaw, and corn. Also comes with a refreshing small paper cup of rainbow sherbet. Rolls and butter are also served. #26. Drooling just thinking about this magnificent creation. Scoop of turkey barbecue served on a grilled bun. Served open face. With bread n butter pickle chips on the side and your choice of chips or fries. Usually get the chips, but this time got fries. To go? 2 slices of strawberry rhubarb pie (seasonal) read more

I ordered the turkey sandwich. The white meat was dry and it was SO salty. The portions are small. I will not crave this restaurant.

Great little spot for breakfast. Staff is friendly and quick . The breakfast menus is small and tasty . This will be a regular stop do me on our way to Blackwell. read more

Water was tasty And wet. Turkey have the toes the fork hut when you bite them and I have no no way no I don't want them in my mouth and I'm just like a guy who knows how much they are like me to be a guy friends I know they don't have to be there but they are so cute he read more

This roadside attraction goes back for ever. It is individualistic American road food, tasty, cheap, authentic. Opened in 1939! In the day, the Fry family operated a turkey ranch (turkey ranch????) on the border of New York and Pennsylvania; and conveniently on US Route 15 that goes between upstate New York, Corning, glass city, and South Carolina. In olden days, it was a 24x7 truck stop. Truckers are like truffle hunters in searching tasty road food and a spot to exchange speed trap intelligence. I came across it traveling from Upstate to Durham. Veni, vidi, vici: saw, came, ate! They were required by law to separate the ranch from the eatery. But the eatery retains a folksy feel and insane prices! How about a full scale Thanksgiving-style turkey dinner with desert for $5.89 (baby) or $11.59 (big)? Turkey and waffles? Turkey, biscuits and gravy? On a highway in mid-nowhere? Epic American classic! read more

On the way to see my husband's family in Rochester, we always stop by at the Fry Bros Turkey Ranch restaurant, and stopping there is my favorite part of the trip (except for seeing my wonderful in-laws). Their dishes are not five star culinary dishes, but they are representative of American cuisine. I think it's a local spot, and it could get really busy during the holiday season. I love the turkey veggie soup - so delicious and comforting. Of course the Turkey DInner always rocks! Their gravy is interesting, and I can't quite tell what it's made out of ... (but I prefer not knowing..). People are always friendly, and you get a good service despite that it's kind of transient spot. I am going back up to Rochester for this Christmas, and I can't wait to get some of this good stuff! (Oh. Of course, they have good stuffing, too!) Gobble gobble! Kelly read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

Stopped for fuel, before 9 pm. Fueling took a little while, the the pump shut me off at 9pm, and wasn't even half way through fueling. Went to walk in the door to speak with the clerk, and she shut the lights off and locked the door as I walked up to the door. She then stood there and ignored me when I asked her to turn the pump back on. She wouldn't even give me my receipt from what I had pumped - therefore throwing off my trip deductions and taxes for my CPA. Extremely discourteous, as there were others wanting to pump gas and diesel. 9PM and you close down on a major N/S tricking highway - I get closing for food, but for fuel, drinks, and even a restroom - it's disgustingly unprofessional. I hope they put up a loves or a limit right next to you and put you out of business. I will be sure to never purchase fuel here ever again. AVOID unless you need to poop before 9pm. read more

Looking to stop to eat off Rte 15, Fry Brothers is great tasting diner food. My husband had fried chicken dinner and liked it. I ordered turkey with biscuits in the smaller portion, which is $2 less, and it too was good tasting. I can't imagine eating the regular portion size because I couldn't finish my dinner. So you can count on portions being hearty and good value. Clean pleasant dining room with friendly staff and fast service. Great stop for travelers. Extra treat for me is their gift shop has funny kitchen towels in quality linen/cottons. Liked them so much I had to buy three. We will stop here again when passing through and hungry. read more

This place has the best coconut cream pie in the world!! Cute little restaurant with great service, food, and prices. I got the cheddar mushroom burger (minus the cheddar) with fries which was delish and has fresh and not canned mushrooms on it. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is very homey. We keep returning and I can't wait to come back again next time we are driving through PA. Love this place! read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - Coconut cream pie - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

Awesome food! Always stop to eat from visiting New York. Can't go wrong Every one is very friendly.

Well a lot has happened since the Fry Brothers opened their first restaurant on this site on Mother's Day, 1939.....but they are still serving a decent Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings for $12.95 Now don't get me wrong, it's not great--but it "ain't bad neither." Figure diner dinner not Grandma homemade. The coffee is good, and they leave a pot at the table. The table is Formica left over from the 70's, but clean enough. The staff is friendly and are more than happy to warm up your dinner when it doesn't arrive hot enough the first time. I would skip dessert as they are definitely purchased elsewhere, try a thick milkshake instead. More than any other reason though, come for the story of the Fry Brothers and the Turkey Ranch they owned before Rte. 15 needed more land. Stay and enjoy the atmosphere...where else can you see a stuffed coyote and turkey while you dine? You will not leave hungry or poor. Rather full and happy you bothered to stop and have an old fashioned road meal. I read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - Great fun for kids of all ages - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

Excellent breakfast. Good prices and service. This place has been next to route 15 since about 1940. It has a reputation with everyone who has ever stopped in. So we were watching for it and it totally satisfied us and exceeded our expectations. The menu was breakfast - it was too early for lunch. So we enjoyed good coffee, crisp bacon (as we requested), eggs cooked to order, and whole wheat toast. If you're ever going south on Rt. 15 on the way to Williamsport PA, be sure to stop here and get a bite to eat. If you have a piece of their pie, let me know how it was. read more

My family used to stop here on our way to and from our vacation home in NY. I always drive passed thinking I should stop again..a few weeks ago traveling with my boyfriend I told him we were going to try an old tradition. The parking lot was packed and there was a short wait for a table. We were seated pretty quickly and greeted by 1 server who took our drink order. Immediately after another server came over to take our drink order too. I assume they work on "turns" and it got a little mixed up. My boyfriend got the traditional turkey dinner and I went with the turkey salad. He was a little frustrated his salad didn't come out before the meal like we noticed other patron's side salads. When we requested the salad she came back with our entire meals. Mine was good, I was surprised by the pickled eggs on the side, I thought it was a nice touch..pretty basic salad, iceburg, tomato, cucumber, cheese, turkey and croutons. Paul said his was good as well but he wasn't impressed by the price.. Now that I think about it...it is over priced for instant mashed potatoes and a generic canned gravy. I get that they do A LOT of business but if your claim to fame is a turkey dinner it should at least be the real deal. I guess it was just more magical when I was a kid! read more

We are only rating this restaurant a 1 because of the friendly service & wait staff. Otherwise the Turkey was dry and tasteless, we've had better turkey out of a TV dinner. The Hot Turkey Sandwich had no flavor and the Turkey tasted like it had been recently frozen and reheated. The Turkey and Biscuits was even worse because the biscuits were more like hockey pucks. We cannot speak to any of the other food that they serve but for a $30.00 dinner we expected more than a bad reheated soggy TV dinner like meal. read more

I had my mother's birthday party at Fry's today and i cant thank the management and staff enough for going above and beyond to make the day memorable. The service was spectacular for a crowd of 70 on top of their normal Sunday lunch customers. Food was great as ALWAYS...have never had anything that was less than great. Will be using them again for our next celebration but will back long before that. read more

We needed lunch and randomly stopped here (versus a fast food chain option). It was your standard sit-down family restaurant, but with a turkey theme. It wasn't bad, but it was nothing exciting. Since standard American fare isn't our favorite, you should add a star if you tend to like your food on the ...well... boring/bland side. We each had a burger, one Angus beef, one turkey. The meat was properly cooked (also not too greasy, and not too tough). The fries weren't soggy or undercooked -- they were decent beer-battered fries. The bun was neither rock-like nor did it disintegrate on contact with ketchup. But we agreed the three slices of pickle on the side were the best part of the meal. The behavior of some nearby diners detracted from our experience, but I don't think they were regulars -- the place can easily get loud, though, if it got that loud while that empty. We were both disturbed by the taxidermy. The problem wasn't that it was there, but that it was noticeably dusty. This oversight didn't seem to extend to the rest of the establishment. The rest of the place seemed fairly clean (even the ketchup container!), if a bit worn in spots. According to my wife the women's restroom needed a quick sweeping and to have the paper-towel trash emptied but this could have *easily* been due to the large party of diners alluded to above. Our server seemed scared of us, perhaps because I had pulled out by netbook to very optimistically look for some WiFi. If you're near Mansfield and heading south on US-15 (future I-99!), too hungry to make it to Williamsport (or vice-versa!), and would rather support someplace local over a chain, this isn't a bad option -- but it's not something that seemed worth going out of your way to visit. Oh, and it looks like their turkey dinners get served with a scoop of rainbow sherbert. Just so you're forewarned. Vegetarian Note: We didn't really look at the time, but neither of us remembers specifically vegetarian items. You probably can get by, but it's not catering to you. read more

In one word: Yummy! We just stopped here based upon the positive Yelp reviews. While the decor is definitely 'truck stop' and there's NO turkey ranch to speak of, the food was very tasty. Of course, if you go to the Turkey Ranch restaurant, you should have turkey! And we did. I had the homemade Turkey Vegetable soup. Wow. This was homemade deliciousness to the max. The broth was so flavorful but light. There was an abundance of turkey meat, plus corn, lima beans, potatoes, tomatoes, onions and other goodies. I couldn't finish my bowl of soup...I wish I could have! My husband had the turkey club sandwich. Nice thick slices of roasted turkey, thick and chewy bacon, not too much mayo...nice! It was served with bread and butter pickles and chips, but hubby got a side of fries as well. Nice chunky fries tossed in a bit of batter and fried up crisp. All this, a side salad, a couple of sodas for a little over $20. Good food, good deal...worth the stop! And don't let the taxidermy scare you off! read more

BEWARE! DO NOT STOP HERE!!! We stopped because we like quirky little places and WE REGRET IT!!! I only gave it 1 star because I had no other option, don't waste your time or money. Awful, awful, awful! My husband's order was turkey and waffles... they served him Eggo waffles with some turkey and gravy on top. Blech! The toxic looking day glow yellow "gravy" was brighter yellow than my daughters weird corn. Even the salad was bad. The mashed potatoes were instant, the stuffing tasted like a cheap version of Stove Top yadda yadda. I have NO idea why this place has higher ratings than it deserves. Blech! It reminds me of a restaurant that would be on the show Kitchen Nightmares. I would recommend keep on truckin' down the road and find somewhere else to eat, or maybe grab something at the gas station nearby. read more

Fry Brothers Turkey Ranch - American Near Me - Trout Run, Pennsylvania

So, off I go, intrepid traveller on yet another adventure, blah, blah, blah, you get the idea. So my companion and I have been driving about 4 hours and need somewhere to eat and pee, order irrelevant. We're driving up 15 and haven't seen anything in a bit when, lo and behold, the turkey ranch looms before us. We pull in to investigate. So walking in we see what appears to be a hunting lodge, complete with mounted stuffed animals. The staff is friendly enough, and we're soon seated with a nice view of a mountain lion. So as this place is called 'Turkey Ranch', I order the turkey sandwich, with my usual Mountain Dew. Not much for sides or beginners, so I get applesauce with a dash of cinammon. The turkey is out before I can eat a small dish of sauce, smokung hot, while my fellow diner is halfway through his salad and looking at his steaming roast beef sandwich. We soon get to our food. Despite drowning in gravy, my turkey is a little dry. The mashed potatoes, however, are quite good. The food quality and service are pretty good. A bit pricey for the plate, though, a turkey sandwich with mash and a Dew shouldn't come in at just shy of 15. I'd have gone with 3 stars, but they have a fireplace and a moose, and you just can't beat that ambience! read more

Great food. Had the soup and turkey sandwich... homemade soup and mounted high turkey sandwich. So good

Well, this place sounds better than it is. On the good side I did like the turkey. It was moist and flavorful. "Filling" appears to be chopped up turkey meat. The only green veg is the tossed salad, I mean bagOlettuce with dressing. And the cole slaw. BTW the FF are like those old Burger King seasoned fries. They should tell you about about that when you order. I guess we were too close to the front door cause we were constantly fighting the flies. Staff is friendly and attentive. read more
