    Absolutely a gem. You must stop by if you're biking or floating the river. You won't be disappointed. The smash burger is to die for. You can get some shaved ice to cool down. They're closed Tuesdays and Thursdays. Check them out on Facebook at "the Outpost Eatery"

    Drive back to MD via PA. Great stop at this trail side burger joint. Melt in your mouth smash burgers. We were traveling with our dogs so added bonus to be able to dine riverside, with pets and have a good meal.

    Wowowowow! After the halfway point of our 28 mile ride, we were hungry and in need of a respite. Just before the West Newton bridge was The Outpost, a food truck evidently known for their smash burgers. Next door was the brewery truck, alas not yet open. With a 14 mile trip back, beer may not have been the best idea anyway. We split a monster burger and a side order of fries. Wow! Crispy patties, melted American cheese, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, oh and bacon. Perfect for sharing. Mike always evaluates burgers on the grilled bun and this quickly rose to first place on his list. The pleasant surprise though was the amazingly friendly young men running the business. They were so polite and worked together as a team, constantly encouraging each other. Turns out that The Outpost is a project of Waypoint Youth and Community Center! A great burger for a great cause. We can't wait to return.

    Great place!

    This little place is amazing!! What a gem find for great melt in your mouth smashburgers and fresh squeezed lemon juice!! The people are so friendly and have an amazing outreach for the local kids that they mentor here! It's a beautiful location right along the river. So peaceful

    I have not actually been to the Quickies Subs location, but have had their subs twice from Helltown…read moreBrewing. Our first time, we all got Italian hoagies. They were good. Lots of meat on a fresh roll. We tried the tuna our next time around and bang! It was one of the best tuna subs I have eaten. The owners are two friendly guys that take their product to Helltown to get the word out. I would like to go to their actual place next time I am in the Woodland Hills area.

    Delicious sandwiches! I got to try the Turkey and American and the Slugger. The turkey was loaded…read morewith good stuff - they add sweet pickles which I normally don't like but on those sandwiches it makes it really pop. We ordered the sandwich without dressing, in the future I'd get mayo or oil and vinegar. Good sandwich even dry. The slugger is meatball with crumbled hot sausage and banana peppers. Great sandwich! Spicy, flavorful, hot, with a shot of flavor every time there's a banana pepper bite. The star of the meal tho was the potato salad. I think I tasted pickle juice and mustard in the wet part of the salad, and they also added bacon. I kept picking at the potato salad even though I was stuffed, it's so good! I'm glad this place opened close, I'll be back for sure, and will def try out different sandwiches next time too. Oh yeah, Mancini's buns! Yum! But be careful, the soporific effect of these buns is not to be underestimated.

    After hearing so many good things, we finally tried By George last night. It's a smaller…read morerestaurant with a separate bar area and was decorated very cute for the holidays. We started with a few beverages. The toasted marshmallow old fashioned was delish, I really enjoyed it. Our service started out great but unfortunately didn't end as great as it started. We started with the grape leaves and were very disappointed, they had good flavor but very mushy. The dinners were good. My friend had the ravioli with meatballs which I didn't get a picture of but it looked amazing. They were very generous with the sauce (which I love a saucy dish)! I had the Penne Fra Diavolo which was nice and spicy but in a good way, I added the shrimp and chicken and preferred the shrimp. Large portion/brought home leftovers. The rolls served with dinner were really good too. Now here is where the problem lied, my husband ordered the ribeye steak (medium rare). It looked amazing but was overcooked. He told the waitress and she had another one made but by time it came out the rest of us were done eating. This is always a frustrating dining experience. Thankfully the second steak was cooked perfectly but the sides were on the cold (not sure if they were the original sides or new sides). But it's never great to watch everyone else eat and then have to have the rest of the table sit and watch you eat. Overall good drinks/food but not a wow-ing first experience.
