Went to McKinney Station after my aunt's funeral. This place has come a long way since my last…read morevisit (when it was a completely different restaurant). Loved the updated decor. Picnic table type seating by the ordering area. This area also had a condiment cow (you've got to see it to believe it) and a small area for local products to be sold. Right by the register was a board full of already purchased meals. Hungry but don't have the money for a meal? Pick one of the receipts for food that has already been paid for and enjoy. Loved this "Pay it Forward" space. The restaurant also has a huge dining room with typical seating (tables of different sizes and chairs). There was also a bar in the dining room which looks like it could be a coffee bar? It wasn't in use when we visited. A lot of funeral attendees descended on this space in a short amount of time. There were upwards of thirty people. Despite this onslaught and their probably not being staffed for such a rush, the service was great. Orders were taken quickly and food was out much faster than I would've expected. My family was very pleased with their food. Pretty typical diner food, though they raved about the ice cream. Not many vegan options. I ordered the black bean burger and a side of fries. When I mentioned fries the lady taking my order asked "Regular fries, curly or sweet potato?" Wait? We have choices? That's not something I expected. The black bean burger was fine. Fries were good. Price seemed reasonable. Wish they had more vegan options but, we aren't exactly in an area clamoring for vegan food.

The Pennsylvania Turnpike mainline runs 360 miles through Pennsylvania from I-95 at the New Jersey…read morestate line in Bucks county to the Ohio Turnpike at the Ohio state line in Lawrence county, with most of the route meandering through picturesque rural central Pennsylvania. If you get hungry or need to charge your electric vehicle somewhere about midway along the route, your options are limited.. with most folks opting to stop at one of the Service Plazas in Sideling Hill (Mile 172.3), Blue Mountain (Mile 202.5), or Cumberland Valley (219.1) for the usual fast food outlets. For those of you who prefer made-to-order, reasonably-priced food (particularly compared to the Service Plaza options) in a casual, family-friendly ambiance or a Tesla Supercharger for your non-ICE vehicles or both -- just pull off the turnpike for McKinney Station, located literally right off the ramp at Mile 201. On a recent roadtrip along the length of the mainline with my dining companion and her father, we were about halfway across the state approaching the Blue Mountain Service Plaza when pangs of hunger struck my passengers. The two of them prefer locally-owned restaurants over the corporate fast food outlets located in the Service Plazas, so I suggested getting off the highway to check out local options. I wasn't sure what to expect when we took the exit for Chambersburg / Shippensburg, but McKinney Station was an oasis -- offering freshly-made, innovative sandwiches, served quickly by the friendly, accommodating staff to get us back on our way towards Pittsburgh. The menu puts an emphasis on simple, casual, easy-to-share, and made-to-order -- such as hot dogs, beef/veggie/grilled chicken burgers, sandwiches, salads, and baskets with a variety of fried foods like chicken fingers, buffalo wings, or onion rings. The house specialty is a "Wedgie" -- a sandwich served pita-style on naan bread -- which was excellent. I had the "Best Wedgie" sandwich ($10), comprised of a fried chicken patty, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and thousand island dressing served on naan bread, which was FANTASTIC. My dining companion and her father opted for the "Rooster Wedgie" sandwich ($9), comprised of grilled chicken strips, lettuce, tomato, and BBQ sauce served on naan bread, which they both really enjoyed. The three of us shared two sides of sweet potato french fries, which were perfectly seasoned and cooked. McKinney Station and its customers also support the local community, with many diners opting "pay it forward" by providing a free meal for others in the community who may be struggling. If you're interested in buying a meal for someone else, just let the staff know and they'll ring it up and add the receipt to a bulletin board next to the cash register. If you're going through a tough time, there's no stigma in grabbing one of the receipts off the bulletin board and presenting it to the cashier for a prepaid meal. We will definitely be back next time we're in the area! PRO TIP #1: Check out the Condiment Cow for your condiments! PRO TIP #2: There's a pair of cornhole boards in the dining room to occupy you (or your kids) while you're waiting for your food.

I've probably driven by Southside Deli 1,000 times and never knew what the building was -- until a…read moreFacebook post about their Oktoberfest specials stopped me in my tracks. A quick search later and I realized it was only 20 minutes from home. I immediately grabbed a friend and requested a dinner date for the item that caught my eye: the Bratwurst mit Kraut -- bratwurst cooked with apples and sauerkraut, served on a pretzel bun and topped with even more kraut, with a side of German potato salad ($12). But I'll admit... I was also eyeing their Obatzda Burger with Oktoberfest beer cheese. Feeling bold, I asked our waitress if I could order their regular Pretzel Braid appetizer ($9) but swap the usual cheez-wiz and spicy mustard for that dreamy Oktoberfest beer cheese instead. She paused, smiled, wrote it down, and said, "that sounds really good!" Bless the chef for making my pretzel + beer cheese fantasy come true. The pretzel braid was warm, soft, and perfectly salty, and that beer cheese was the real MVP -- smooth, melty, not too hot, and with a proper beer-cheese finish. When the bratwurst plate arrived, it was a showstopper. Juicy brat, tangy kraut piled high, and tucked inside a pretzel roll that was soft but sturdy enough to hold it all together. No mustard needed! The German potato salad surprised me, though -- I'm used to the warm version, so finding it chilled caught me off guard. But honestly? It worked. Perfectly seasoned, just wet enough to be salad without drifting into soupy territory. I demolished both. Dessert was impossible to skip after hearing our waitress describe it to another table. We shared both the Apple Caramel Crumb Cake and the Lemon Blueberry Mascarpone Cake. The crumb cake was served warm with ice cream, loaded with thick, crunchy topping that didn't rely on chopped nuts (bonus points!). The mascarpone cake was light and buttery with the perfect balance of lemon and blueberry -- like saying goodbye to summer and hello to fall all in one dessert sitting. Southside Deli's Oktoberfest menu blew me away, and if their everyday offerings are anywhere close, I've been seriously missing out. Add in free parking, a convenient location, and plenty of seating, and it's an easy go-to spot for lunch or dinner. Southside is officially on my food rotation radar now!

The bread was warm and toasted stout the tunela was cold. I found it odd that the tuna wasn't on the toast when it was "melted". Tasted good though.
