We just enjoyed some hatchet throwing therapy at Stumpy's. The manager, Erika, was great! She gave…read moreus the safety chat and showed us throwing techniques. We had so much fun and it was therapeutic after a stressful week (and it's only Wednesday)! Tonight was Ladies Night so there were special rates. There are other specials throughout the week and month so check the website. Do make reservations. Along with axe throwing, there's corn hole, giant Jenga, arcade games, and other free or inexpensive things to do. We took a tour of the various party rooms & they look like so much fun. Great place to have birthday parties, casual business gatherings, hang with friends or a unique date. One of the things that I really like is that you can BYO food, drinks and adult beverages. They do have a cooler with beverages that include craft sodas, boba, energy drinks, and more. Light snacks are available, too. The decor is a meld of a warehouse with rustic lumberjack accessories and furniture. The cages are named after roads and places in Hershey. The place was clean and inviting (as inviting as axes can be). Sorry, I didn't take pictures because we were disconnecting from the phones for a few hours. As for the location, it is tricky to find. When you turn off of Chocolate Avenue onto N Street or Orchard Street, then tune Left on First Street (an alley) go to the end of the road & it will be on the right. The physical location is not on Chocolate Avenue, but one block behind it.

For every time we've dined here, we've had a reservation and still had to wait about an hour to receive our entrees. The one star knockoff is purely due to lack of speedy service and long wait times for food. Otherwise, the mansion is absolutely gorgeous, and has seasonal menus, so there is always something new to offer each time you visit. They have a unique seasonal cocktail menu, and numerous different types of alcohol/bottles. (I would recommend getting a prosecco glass with cranberry juice in it!) They give out two different pieces of bread, both very good, and they also give out a "bite of the night" or something similar to it, which is a unique small bite full of flavor from the kitchen.

I'd really like to give 5 stars for the taste of the food but it wasn't warm enough when it was served. I asked about the soups and was offered a taste of both which I thought was great. When the samples came they weren't hot. Barely warm. I ordered one of the soups and told the server it wasn't warm enough and asked to make sure it was warm when it came out. It wasn't. Butternut squash creamy soup with a piece of smoked salmon in top. Interesting. Very creamy but I couldn't taste the butternut squash. It was nondescript but since I'd tasted both and didn't like the other I felt I did have to order one. The smoked salmon added saltiness and actually made it nice but I think you'd have to look forward the squash. And, it was only mildly warm. Husband ordered the paella. I tasted it, of course. The fish was overcooked, the scallop I had was sweet and cooked well. The rice was decent, but, instead of the rich saffron scented taste I expected, this tasted of chicken broth a la rice a roni. And whereas it was good, it was nothing special. He said the shrimp and mussels were good. I ordered Tuscan shrimp which was billed as shrimp and ravioli in sun dried tomato cream sauce with spinach. There were 4 good size ravioli covered in a cream sauce- not Alfredo- and there were bits of sun dried tomato sprinkled on it. Tasty but not sun dried tomato cream sauce. There are 5 or 6 good size shrimp that were delicious and cooked just right. This was a delicious dish and would have been 5 stars if it were hot. It was warm, not wArm enough though. Same for the paella. And everyone at our end of the table said the same thing. Neighbors had Mac and cheese with meatballs which they said was ok, chicken cacciatore which they said was covered in red pepper sauce which they said was good but that the chicken was dry. Didn't talk to anyone else about their meals but the chief complaint was that nothing was hot. And the service was uneven- we were served a long time before the people next to us were served their meals. This place is a venue for weddings and parties. One would think they could keep large numbers of meals hot and out at the same time. I would like to give 5 stars for my shrimp dish's taste. My husband said his paella was a 3.5 But serving the meals at low temp just knocks it down a few pegs. Dinner included a very small piece of crouton with tomato topping. I guess it was bruschetta bouche amuse. Tasty but tiny. The servers were very nice and I think they were doing the best they could. Not their fault. Lovely ambiance but expensive. For the prices, I expect hot food.

This was the worst B&B I have ever experienced. We booked a…read morefive day stay for three couples a year in advance. When we arrived, we couldn't get in the building or our room. We had to make several phone calls to get the codes to access the building and room. This was just the first of many problems we encountered. The rooms were nice, but the service was terrible. We paid for a hot breakfast every morning, which was advertised when we booked. This was not the case when we arrived. No hot breakfast at all. Just cold lunch meat,hard boiled eggs, toast if you wanted to fix it yourself, instant oatmeal in a packet, over ripped bananas, and strawberries. This is not the hot breakfast that we paid for. I contacted the management company that operates the B&B and was told they stopped the hot breakfast two weeks before we arrived. I ask why we weren't informed about this. I was told they couldn't notified everyone that had reservations, over four hundred. I told them we would like to have a partial refund because they didn't give us what was advertised, and we paid for. As of today, they still list a hot breakfast on most of the travel websites. They didn't offer any refund. They said to review the cancellation policy. I then said we would have cancelled our entire stay if we had known this before we left home. Still no offer to at least a partial refund. We had to go to a restaurant and get our breakfast every day, and that was an extra expense. As of today, after several back and forth emails, still no offer of any kind of refund. As far as the service part of our stay. We had to ask every day for clean towels, wouldn't take the dirty ones, or empty the trash during our entire stay. I told the management company this is not a good way to run a business. I don't think they care at all about how they treat the people that rent at this B&B. I would never book this place again. I hope people read this review and avoid this property.

When no one in the family felt like cooking for Easter this year, the LeTort View Community…read moreCenter's public Easter Brunch felt like the perfect solution -- festive, easy, and a chance to try something new. Bonus: an appearance from the Easter Bunny? Say less. We were in! Booking tickets online was super simple, and we selected the 12pm seating. Ahead of the event, we received instructions via email directing us to obtain a Visitor's Pass to access the Carlisle Barracks, which I appreciated -- anything to streamline the day-of process. Unfortunately, their automated pass system was down, and despite multiple attempts to resolve it ahead of time, we were told to just arrive 30 minutes early with IDs and handle it on-site. That's where the adventure began. On Easter morning, we plugged the provided address into GPS and confidently set off... only to be led to a closed gate with a sign that simply read: "GATE CLOSED. USE OTHER GATE." Cool, cool, cool. Which gate? Where? I don't live or work here. No idea. Calls to the contact number went unanswered (understandable given the holiday, but still not ideal), and we found ourselves driving around Carlisle trying to solve what felt like an Easter scavenger hunt we did not sign up for. We eventually made an executive decision to head to the Visitor Center, which -- surprise! -- is exactly where we should have gone in the first place. Once there, we got through security fairly easily, but were given only verbal directions to the venue. We were told there would be "good signage." Spoiler alert: there was not. We had to stop twice to ask for directions before finally finding the building. By the time we parked, I was equal parts relieved and hangry. We arrived about 30 minutes early as instructed and checked in, only to be told to wait in the bar area because the kitchen was "catching up." Totally fair -- things happen -- but the check-in area already felt a bit chaotic. The bar experience followed suit, with some confusion around seating and tabs, but we rolled with it and grabbed drinks while we waited. As noon approached, the lobby filled quickly with guests waiting to be seated. After confirming we wouldn't lose our place in line (because we had, in fact, been waiting patiently), we were finally seated right on time. Once inside the banquet room, we quickly realized this was going to be a bit of a self-service experience beyond the buffet. We were glad we had already grabbed drinks, because our server didn't make it to our table until we were well into dessert. Around the room, other guests were also wondering about drinks, table clearing, and general service. It was clear the team was doing their best, but the coordination just wasn't quite there. Now -- let's talk about the food, because this is where things turned around. The buffet itself was really well done. A great mix of breakfast and lunch options, with everything from eggs and bacon to carved meats, mac and cheese, and roasted vegetables. There was something for everyone, and everything we tried was solid. But the absolute standout? The chocolate cake with peanut butter icing and crushed Reese's peanut butter cups. Listen...this cake was LIFE-CHANGING! Rich, decadent, perfectly peanut buttery -- I had a massive slice and absolutely could have gone back for more (and considered it). My adventure buddies were equally impressed with the candied sweet potatoes and the Italian lemon crème cake. For $35 per person, the food absolutely delivered. We made sure to grab photos with the roaming Easter Bunny before heading out, which really tied the whole experience together and gave it that festive, holiday feel we were hoping for. Overall, despite the logistical challenges getting onto the base, the lack of clear directions, and the somewhat disorganized service, we genuinely had a really nice Easter. Not having to cook, clean, or plan a full meal was a win, and the food quality made it worthwhile. Would I attend another public event here? Possibly -- especially if the price and menu felt right. Would I host an event here? I'd have some hesitation based on the coordination challenges we experienced. But as far as Easter 2026 goes...we ate well, got our bunny photos, and made it an adventure -- which, honestly, is kind of on brand.
