    Great new restaurant in downtown Gettysburg, just off Lincoln Square. Authentic Syrian food and a fully stocked bar. We got several appetizers and they were enough for a meal for two. Labneh is a must-try appetizer. Many vegetarian options, too. Great date night restaurant - we will definitely be back again soon!

    Straight up five stars, no doubt in my mind. We had the cheese rolls as an app and they were transcendent. Honestly one of the best things I have eaten in my entire life. It was like a creamy mozzarella with a pita crust with just enough crispness. I also had the "mixed grill" and every meat was tender and perfectly seasoned, the rice was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The waiter was very attentive and the owner or manager came to check on us and answer some of our questions about the food. It was clean and quiet inside and had a traditional American bar feel. I look forward to going back whenever I am in town. It was lovely.

    Nice Bar also

    Returned again. Same outstanding food. Same outstanding service. Quaint place. Great ambiance.

    crumbs and pieces of food all over the ledge and floor

    We have been here 3 times. The food is excellent. The reason I give it 3 stars is because the place is not clean. The last time we went, I noticed it was bad but we decided to try again and it was worse this time. We went at 3 in the afternoon before a movie at Majestic. There were only 2 other people in there. We first sat by the window but the window sill was so dirty that we moved to another table. We almost left but didn't have time to go anywhere else before our movie. I would hate to see what the kitchen looks like!

    Lovely spot, lovely dinner. My recommendations: 1) tabouli salad, lemony deliciousness, 2) falafel, so good (take note cava), suggest over hummus instead of greens, and 3) kafta (beef&lamb) kebab, melt in your mouth. Overall, loved the service and atmosphere. Don't skip the Arabic coffee. Will 100% be back with others.

    Finally made it to Gettysburg to try Jamilie and we came away very pleased. We didn't have a reservation and there would have been a wait so we grabbed two seats at the bar. The two house special cocktails were a thumbs up. We ordered the Veggie Mezze Sampler along with the Kibbee and Makenek. It was all outstanding, lots of flavor, fresh and super healthy. The best Middle Eastern food we have had in Central PA.

    Mixed grill entree

    We went here last weekend for the first time and it was excellent! The food is authentic and seasoned perfectly. The service was also fantastic and our waiter was very attentive and patient when we continued to order additional items to try. Parking is also easy with the parking garage right across the street. 10/10 i will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area.

    A lovely, friendly space with great Syrian dishes. The manager Antoine came by each table to check on our experience. The food was authentic and quite delicious!

    Delicious and wonderful food!! Highly recommended! Our server Jeremy and the general manager Antone were extremely accommodating, friendly and welcoming! We will be back again soon!!

    Knafeh dessert - amazing!

    This place was so cool inside. I went to Gettysburg for my 21st and wasnt able to go because…read moresomeone else in my group wasnt 21. So, i went back for St. Patricks Day. The drinks were good and cheap, between the 2 of us we had around 8 drinks & the tab was $25 or $30. Which is relatively good for 2 people, in my opinion. They dont serve food which is a bummer, i also didnt play pool but alot of people were. It is a tight space, so it gets crowded and loud fairly quickly.

    I have been wavering on how to write this review for some time. Mostly because I have been…read moreinfighting with whether I liked this place or not. Was I seeing this place through my own beer goggles for the night. Let's just get into it. When we showed up in the area we had asked about what nightlife was like in the area. With it being in the middle of a cold streak we were told about several places in town that would fit the bill to have a night out. We made the rounds in town and then found ourselves here for the remainder of the night. I think what drew us here was that it looked like a dive from the outside and allowed smoking. There weren't many people in here for a majority of the night, so we kind of got to observe this place with the regulars in it. That really allows to see how the locals are in an area. It was interesting to say the least. Once the drinks started flowing we started to feel a little more comfortable in here. We started talking to the bartender to find out what was good to do besides the typical tourist stuff in the area. She was wonderful with suggestions, telling us about other watering holes in the vicinity and even beyond Gettysburg. We had inquired about LGBT friendly places within a short car ride and were basically told to go to Harrisburg or a small town in Maryland. At that point, that's when things started to get a little weird. After outing ourselves, things got a little uneasy for us. We ended up meeting the owner's grandson. He was great and seconded the suggestions the bartender made. But when he introduced us to the locals at the end of the bar, we kind of wanted to not say much. It actually made us feel unwelcomed after a bit of sitting near them. Kind of like all eyes were on us. After a few more minutes of that, we paid our bill and made it out the door. So the thing is that it's a great bar, if you're a local. Or maybe even if it's crowded, so there are other people to focus on. We liked everything, the freedom to smoke, the pricing, the bartender, but the atmosphere changed at some point and flipped the script. Would we go back? Maybe if it was nicer weather wise out, that would allow more people to be in here.

She was busy so she couldn't check on us; if she had, the food may have been better. We each got sandwiches. I asked if a side salad could be substituted for a side and the answer was NO! It was weird, why couldn't I get that? I got the portobello panini. The flavor was ok, the mushroom was pretty touch but if I cut it with a knife it was okay. The BLT was specifically asked for crispy bacon and it was the floppiest, fattest bacon. My bf just pulled it off. Anyway this was not a great experience. The drinks were pretty good so I might go back for just that but not the food.

It is done in a minimalist decor and dim tones which after spending a few hours hiking around in the sun is nicely refreshing. a lunch runs $13-$17 and i had a Reuben and a beer. I'm used to Reubens being fairly tall, this was flat but filling and the flavor was fine. Just off to one side through a door is the hotel bar which looks nice but is so ornate that it stands out awkwardly from the more spartan surroundings. The rest room is a little bit of a hike through the hotel but that was really the only issue I had. The fact it was empty in the middle of the day, with tourists all around, and literally right in the middle of town made me wonder 'what do they know that i don't?' But for my part I had a nice, relaxed lunch in a pleasantly cool and dark location. Would I go there again? Sure.

It's cool to get a cheap drink or shot, see the mine cave, listen to the music, and move on with your trip. Locals and travelers alike visit this establishment. It's not fancy and smells a bit musty but the clientele and pricing are great. I've been a patron here every time I'm in town for a few years now. It's a consistent experience every time, we are repeat customers. 21+ only NO KIDS. Pro tip: bar service & paying your check can be kinda slow because the bartenders get to talking - which is a bonus if you're on the receiving end of the talking.... but they get sidetracked often. Consider backing up your drink and paying cash up front. Anyway this is the reason it's knocked down a star, can get kinda frustrating when you just want a beer, sometimes it takes a while even if they aren't busy.

The bartenders, Jasmine and Derek, were straight to the point and friendly. Derek actually offered to make a specialty cocktail right as we sat down. Decent selection of local craft beer. Inexpensive drinks with fast service. Several of the other guests were not locals, but actually travelers that had deemed this place their go-to spot when staying in Gettysburg or passing through. No food menu, but you can bring your own or have food delivered. There is additional parking and entrance in the back off of Taneytown Road if the hotel parking is too full. Just the perfect cozy dive bar spot with a sweet fireplace and fun locals. Check it out!

Of the two servers they had, we had the worst of the two. She disappeared from the floor for long periods so it was difficult to even get a drink refill. Ended up sticking with water as the one cocktail I had was clearly a mix and also seemed to have no alcohol in it. Appetizer selection was limited to seafood or onion soup. Don't like seafood? Tough luck. If you like seafood with some variation of Old Bay then you'll probably like this place. Although there are much cheaper places to eat if you just want basic northerner seasoning. The restaurant was not advertised as a seafood place otherwise I would have avoided it. I ended up ordering a steak, which came with a salad and a potato. The salad and potato was the best part. Despite ordering the steak medium rare, it was unevenly cooked and dry with a leathery exterior. I would have sent it back but I didn't want to spend another hour trying to get someone's attention to resolve it. If I ever find myself in Gettysburg again, I will be sure to eat elsewhere, this was not good value for money.

We'd spent an entire day touring the battlefield, it's a Saturday, and the town is full of tourists. No surprise we had a thirty minute wait for a table. But once inside and seated, it was clear to us that the B & G was no ordinary bar & grill. The burgers are themed for generals, both Federal and Confederate, who took part in the battle. Each burger is characterized by the general it's named for. The General Buford, for example, is served with bleu cheese crumbles and horseradish (he's a cavalry officer, get it?) and the Robert E. Lee features a slab of Virginia ham. I ordered the General George Meade. Meade was a Pennsylvanian, so naturally this burger comes with a pile of Philly cheesesteak. A carnivore's delight, to be sure. No complaints here. And if I'm ever back this way, I'm curious to try the General Longstreet: it's served with carmelized onions and peanut butter. That's gotta be good.
