    Original pretzel

    Grabbed a quick snack on my drive through Lebanon. Cute pull off location, conveniently on 501, nestled around woods. Ample parking and seating outside. I did not sit outside during 96 degree weather but families were using the picnic tables and visiting the petting zoo. They have a variety of different hand held foods for a quick bite and offer ice cream. I got the original pretzel with beer cheese dipping sauce. Freshly made, good flavor, super nice staff. I will definitely try this place again and enjoy lunch and ice cream. Can't wait to be back.

    Magical. That's the only word for it. I went to The Pretzel Hut on the last Friday night before Christmas at 6:30pm, and as soon as I walked up and saw the igloos, I yelled: "OMG... I want to LIVE HERE!" We lucked out with parking and only had a short wait after ordering. Once inside the igloo, I was blown away -- warmer than I expected on a 28° night, cozy, beautifully lit, and just... magical. And yes, it was lightly snowing, which somehow made it even more enchanting. The property is beautifully decorated with Christmas lights, and there are cute little trains running on tracks outside the igloos. We even stopped to say hi to the animals before leaving -- including Ozzy the camel braving the freezing weather like a champ. We went all out on the food: a Dutch Pretzel Melt (house-made pretzel roll, grilled sweet bologna, sautéed onions, cheese, mustard & horseradish sauce) for $8.99, a huge order of Garlic Parm Sprouts tossed in garlic parmesan seasoning for $4.99, a Fountain Drink for $2.49, a Pretzel Dog for $5.99, Beer Cheese pretzel dip for $0.79, a Signature Soft Pretzel for $3.99, and a Water Bottle for $1.25 total including tip ended up being $35.91 which I found super reasonable for a festive Friday Date Night dinner for two. For dessert, we enjoyed the Peanut Butter Max Ice Cream Sundae -- vanilla soft serve with Reese's pieces and peanut butter cups -- $6.89. Everything was fantastic. The Dutch Pretzel Melt was chef's kiss -- perfect flavor combo. The brussels sprouts were huge, perfectly seasoned, and still hot when I got them to my igloo (not skimped on the garlic & parm -- perfection!). The pretzel dog and soft pretzel were solid, and the beer cheese was thick, flavorful, and perfectly dippable. And eating a peanut butter max sundae in a heated igloo while it was snowing outside? Absolutely wild and absolutely amazing. This place is super cool, totally unique, and I'm officially putting it on my new annual traditions list. I will absolutely be back next year. If you haven't experienced The Pretzel Hut's igloos during Christmas, you are missing out.

    Fish tacos

    First time eating here. I had the fish tacos and hubby had the 1/2 coconut shrimp. We both enjoyed our meal and then we had dessert....of course. I had a small cone and he a milk shake. Best milkshake around and my ice cream was very silky smooth and had good flavor. We have visited the farm with the animals and always enjoy it. I am only stressing a scary fact that drivers race way over the speed limit past this place and it is very scary to me. Please support local and PLEASE PLEASE KEEP A HOLD OF YOUR CHILDREN while visiting.

    We enjoyed our ice cream & soft pretzels. Loved that there was a playground and petting zoo; loads of fun. They had a handwashing station by the animals and there was a good amount of parking. We're looking forward to our next visit!

    We go out of our way to visit here at least once a season. The food has all been excellent as well as the ice cream. The pretzels are huge & delicious beyond belief. We tried their signature pretzel and everyone that tried a bite was impressed. It was soft & buttery and it tasted fresh and not full of chemicals like at Auntie Anne's. This visit, I got the Hut Burger and really enjoyed it. The burger patties were nicely smashed with lacey edges but still juicy. The toppings were fresh and the sauce was yummy. My little guy got a kid's chicken tender meal and it was excellent. Three large, breaded chicken tenders, choice of side and a drink in a cute animal paper bag. The petting zoo has bunnies & goats and is free. You can buy feed for a little over $3/bag. I really appreciated the hand washing station outside the zoo. They recently added a large playset with 3 or 4 slides. My kids loved it and it gave me a little break! I saved the ice cream for after the playground so I could lure them away more easily. They have some great combinations for sundaes. I got the peanut butter max and switched the vanilla soft serve for the pb/choc twist soft serve--perfection! My older son got the spring peep sundae and loved all the toppings. It can get busy here, but it's worth it!

    The Hut Burger

    The Pretzel Hut has been around for many years, but more recently has changed things up and I believe that is due to new ownership. Bringing a more modern vibe to the classic establishment. Food is very good, burgers, cheesesteaks, chicken tenders and fries take up the menu. The burgers are smash burgers and above average. Fries are not bad for frozen fries. Of course we had to try the pretzels and they were pretty good, Auntie Anne's style buttery pretzel can't really go wrong. What differentiates this from other establishments is its very convenient location on 501. PLUS the petting zoo of goats and bunnies ALONG with the very nice swing-set for young ones. A great atmosphere with good ice cream and quick service allowed us to enjoy our time and give out young one something to do as we ate. We will be back at some point, mostly in the summer.

    I'm not a huge pretzel person, but when I tell you this pretzel had me craving more pretzels... It's soft, buttered, and divine... Just writing this review is making me crave it again. I love the country location, and the service was nice. There's a walking trail, playground, and animals nearby, so this is the perfect spot for a little exploration--with a pretzel in hand, obviously. My parents were saying how it used to be cheaper and the pretzels used to be larger, but it is what it is, isn't it. Looking forward to coming here again :)

    Fun place to get ice cream and lunch! Free small petting zoo in the back. Fresh soft pretzels. Turkey Hill ice cream. Fun soft serve flavors. Parking can be tough during busy hours.

    What a delicious lunch, I ordered The Hut Burger with onion rings and it was fresh and delicious. I also ordered a kids soft chocolate and went to check out the small farm.

    The soup was delicious but the soft serve was not! Besides the unique flavors, I don't understand the hype. Our order was wrong, but once it was fixed, my very messy bread bowl was delicious. There's a little zoo for kids too.

It was nice to have a slice of pie, eggs and coffee. You get to meet the people who stay at the other farmhouse too. Everyone hangs out and chit chats for a while. The morning starts with farm chores if you want to go! The kids loved it. There's a refrigerator for you to put your goodies in. It's not too far from town but you will need a car. Plenty of room to walk, kick a ball, play games. I will warn you, T-Mobile service is terrible there! Not their fault. Verizon seems to work well. This was an absolutely fantastic place to stay. I highly recommend it.

The road that ended up being open has a building with the address of 1722 Schwaben Creek Rd, Rebuck, PA 17867, and there were some small signs also posted. Be aware, that this road is a narrow farm lane, so do not bring a vehicle with low clearance. Follow the road and signs until you get to the admission hut and pay to enter. Get the larger bucket of animal feed when you pay to enter, you'll need it for at least the wagon ride. Animals in the Petting Zoo portion included goats, sheep, a baby camel, and a miniature horse. You can feed the ostrich's and peacocks roam around. There are also camel dies for an additional fee. To me the wagon ride was the MVP of the experience and why you need the larger bucket of feed. They take you into the gated areas of the park and stop several times to allow for feeding of the deer, goats, pigs, and big cows. After the ride, it's a short walk to visit the camels and donkeys, which you can also feed. There is also a small picnic area, kids' playground equipment, portable toilets, and hand washing stations available. If you do need to ask any questions, call ahead as they do respond quickly, but don't actively monitor their Facebook messages. Overall, this is a solid outing for kids, families, and people who love animals.
