You have glimpses of the wooded outdoors and paintings of wildlife. There's also a set of bronze climber that's rather quirky. Our party of seven was there to quietly celebrate a 31st wedding anniversary and the restaurant was very kind about our disorganized group. The guests of honor had ordered a Blue Moon Belgian White (served with an orange slice) and waters while waiting for the rest of us. The food was very well prepared. The St. Patrick's Day menu was an early feature & some of us took advantage with a notable option being the Reuben Quesadilla. My mother-in-law was concerned that the sauerkraut would make it soggy. We were pleased that her quesadilla was crispy & she said it was a generous amount of corned beef. Father-in-law ordered the Roast Beef #3, which is described as "Served hot on thick sliced sourdough, and smothered with fries & gravy". It was, indeed, smother in gravy and looked like a very generous portion to me. A couple other dishes were the Cajun Style Chicken Alfredo and Shepherd's Pie. I was informed that they were great dishes and sister-in-law-to-be claimed it was a better shepherd's pie than she could make at home. High praise! We had the Fish & chips. The haddock was a large filet, the batter was a good ratio to the flesh and the fry was a great temperature. There was no excess of greasiness. The chips and fish were very crunchy without being dried out inside. The tartar sauce was unremarkable, but the coleslaw was perfect; tangy with vegetables that had a crisp crunch. Our waitress was very patient with our little one; the pickiest of us declined anything except a beverage until it was time for dessert, which was a kids vanilla ice cream, with sprinkles. I ordered a Lemon Berry Cream Mascarpone - a white cake with a delicate crumb, delicious cream filling, tart cranberries and sweet blueberries. Absolutely the best dessert I've had in Pennsylvania. The rest of the party ordered Cheesecakes and Irish Bread pudding. There were no complaints to be heard.

Service was great! We had a waitress handle our party of 11 and she was awesome! Not one complaint…read morefrom any of us. Mt Gretna Hideaway is a cool place to check out. Mt Gretna is general is a great time. It is fun , outdoorsy, great bar scene and great food. Definitely better in the summer compared to the winter, but such a cool atmosphere! The food was awesome. Roast Beef, simply great! The Guinness Burger was very good, great taste. A lot of places are going smash burgers route, but this style of burger is definitely better. The fries were average, definitely had better. Biggest knock that brings it down to a 4 star is the price for the the food is a little on the higher side. Overall good place!

Service was friendly and I think overall the prices here are reasonable. Was not big on their whites - they were a bit to austere for our taste. The grunier vetliner holds promise but it's missing some of that wonderful pepper spicy note that you typically get. On the red side, they're entry-level wine, which is Redbone was actually our favorite kind of a pizza style light red. I also thought the title, which is there biggest red was pretty decent and they had a new release which I didn't catch the name of but tasted, and it was a Good one as well. Knocked on some cheese and bread with a music in the background and a beautiful deck. A worthwhile destination on a beautiful Saturday

She made the entire end-to-end experience seamless, flexible, and most importantly, a complete and total JOY! Katie and the rest of her CCO crew truly delivered the most hype, energetic, and all-time performance throughout the entirety of the Ceremony/Cocktail Hour/Reception trio. The "worst" (and only "bad") part of our day was when they announced "last call" at 9:55pm! One of my husband's coworkers put CCO on our radar, and we now feel as though we must "pay it forward" to family, friends, and other hopeful couples! Don't walk - RUN. CCO truly made our special day customized, romantic, yet ELECTRIC, and we could not be more grateful to them for absolutely EVERYTHING!

The entire process from first contact to last dance was as smooth as we could have hoped. Katie and her crew were amazingly friendly, adaptable to the numerous last minute changes we made, down-to-earth, and were passionate about customizing the evening event! CCO is clearly different than other bands and offered an incredible value! They played every song as if it were the only one which mattered! Everyone, and I mean everyone, raved about how good CCO was during our daughter's wedding. I strongly recommend Central City Orchestra!
