Let me begin with the fact that 3.5 stars would probably be a better choice if Yelp offered that…read more But as a local, I know there's not many options around Kempton, so my four star rating is more a reflection of my surprise at the quality I found when I dropped in on a whim recently. I have been to the Kempton Hotel in its previous incarnation and it was nothing to write home about. This time, I went there to catch a quick lunch with my daughter. Upon walking inside, we were met with the smell of stale smoke. We asked to sit on the porch where there was ample seating. Here are the real reasons for such a generous rating: the waitress was very pleasant and surprised us with a litany of lunch specials. We each ordered one of them; I went with the Chicken Bacon Ranch Cheesesteak with onion rings (which were an upgrade from the side vegetable -- fresh brussels sprouts -- which were very tempting, but I didn't want to order an additional side of onion rings). My daughter went with the Black Diamond Steak Quesadilla. Both the entrees were delicious, fresh, and the wonderful onion rings were a highlight, with horseradish sauce on the side. Yum! We were tempted to go for either of the described dessert specials, which were made with local berries and apples. I thought it was extra special that at an establishment such as the Kempton Hotel does some 'farm-to-table' stuff! I will plan a trip there just for dessert some time. Here are my criticisms: I can't speak to the decor inside as I did not look around much. The smell was a turn off, though, so I suspect there is overlooked smoking happening at the bar, unless it is holdover odor from the many years when smoking was permitted inside. Second: I thought the prices were a little high for locals such as myself. They seemed more geared to tourist clientele, though in general, Kempton is not such a destination. But definitely not out of range, compared to the Stony Run Inn down the road. (I did notice that draft beers are $1.50 every day except Thursday when they're $1. But I wasn't there to drink.) I guess I was just pleasantly surprised at the product, based on previous experiences, and I'm thrilled to have a decent place to eat a half a mile from my house, since there's not a whole lot close by! Hopefully, the reopening of the Kempton Hotel will bring other quality establishments into town and change our almost ghost town status. With a little extra attention to aesthetics -- maybe some tasteful music piped out to the porch, flower boxes, and fresh air inside -- a 4 star rating would truly fit.

The line for Vinces was like 20 people deep and there was only 3 people at Blendlife?? Not sure if people were thrown off by the mostly smoothie menu. But like I said I was hungry and not willing to wait 30 mins in line so I tried the grilled sandwiches. Italiano with Turkey on multigrain bread. It was a big sandwich! It should be for $9 +2 for turkey. Anyways it was freaking delicious! I am so glad I tried them. The pesto they used with the fresh motz was on point, very good combo. Very fresh and I'm not a small guy and this Sami filled me up. Thanks Blendlife!

We hadn't been back since the refurbishment of the outside and the expanded kitchen. We learned tonight we should have jumped back on ship sooner! Atmosphere is great, food was great (chicken bacon ranch wrap w/ tots, German pizza flatbread), beer was cold, waitresses were perky, music was good, and the local football game was on the TV... and it was packed! Time to become regulars again! Loss of a star is only because of a slightly slow kitchen. Not a huge deal given the social nature of the place. Note... I think the cluster of one star reviews from out of state posters on here are bogus. This is a LOCAL place, you don't just stumble upon this place while traveling.

While driving through the back routes in PA, came across this very cute little bakery ad decided to…read moregive it a try as I needed some sugar for another four hours of driving. The place is in a small strip mall, next to a gas station and a pizza place and had a board outside advertising their lunch. Walking in I was drawn to the setting of the place as it is very welcoming, minimal display and a decent sitting area. The lady at the counter recommended everything on the menu, but when I told her I was looking for something very sweet, she guided me to "The Persian", which is a donut filled with creme and other goodies and to the "Salted Caramel Bar", which was the largest brownie I had seen. For extra measures I went ahead and bought a White Cupcake as well and started my adventure by finishing that one first. The White was very well made, light to the eating and wasn't too sweet either. The real treat however was the Salted Caramel Bar as just after one bite, I was a full convert to becoming their fan right there and then. Not only is it huge, but there is plenty of very sweet and amazing caramel inside which oozes out as you eat through it. After discovering my new love interest in the brownie, I stood up to go meet the owner of the bakery. She shared that she and her sister had started this place and it was still relatively new. I complimented them for their artistry and asked them to be on Yelp, as that is the only place I get my recommendations. I drove home after buying another bar and kept it in the trunk so I do not have easy access to it. This place is far from me, but I will find any excuse to drive to that area to pick some of those brownies and The Persian. Well done ladies, you have a fan in Connecticut!

The first time we visited, we had been painting our new house all day and just needed to grab some food.

They were incredibly accommodating, even checking with the chef to ensure my meal would be safe. Every time we visit, they take such great care. They remember my allergy and have even alerted other waitstaff about it. Their genuine concern and attentiveness make every visit to Knepper's a pleasure. We truly enjoy dining here!
