We just spent 3 nights at Fulling Mill Bed and Breakfast. Every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations! Paula and Duane were so welcoming and accommodated our every request, often anticipating what we needed before we did! The property is gorgeous, the beds super comfortable and the breakfasts a delight. This is definitely our go-to place when visiting the Harrisburg area.

Midtown Pizza

Reviewed By MariaM731

I have visited multiple times as my parents live near this restaurant. It has a small, quiet bar, booth and table seating, and never seems crowded. I would not necessarily recommend paying for the more expensive entrees but the burgers, subs, salads and french fries are all very reasonably priced and yummy. Has a few options for vegetarians as well. Drafts are cheap - $1 for domestic during happy hour. Very friendly service and takeout as well.

River House Bar & Grill

Reviewed By Eirejim

The wife and I stopped off at this restaurant after doing a quick search online. Wow, sometimes you just luck out. Had a wonderful dinner from a large menu and great beer selection. Very nice interior and they have a relaxing deck area when the weather co-operates. We'll be suggesting this place to our family who live in the area.

Jd's Junction

Reviewed By MrsG262

Atmosphere is very friendly. The owner sat down and talked to us. I had one of the best cheesesteak sandwiches I ever had here. Very clean, would be a nice place for a special occasion, great menu, tables in room adjacent to bar area but bar is not in view, outdoor deck seating as well. Full bar selection, great service. Planning to go again.

The Hop Yard

Reviewed By Rob H

Had a great time there.... multiple TVs with all the games, good beer selection, great service!Bar and table service and the service was friendly and fast. We sat at the bar and ordered some food as well....soup was good and the flatbread was ok (though my wife liked thinner crust).About 20 beers on tap with a nice variety, wine and full bar. They had a tap takeover coming up so they seem to do some beer related events. Full parking lot out front and they have indoor/outdoor seating with some large garage doors to open when weather permits. Definitely a place we would go back!

Alfred's Victorian Restaurant

Reviewed By Donna S

If you are looking for an exceptionally romantic setting for dinner, Alfred's Victorian will surpass your greatest expectations! We absolutely loved it!! My husband reserved one of their cozy romantic corner booths, perfect for a special evening with your love! We were entertained tableside as they prepared our Steak Diane dinner and Cherry Jubilee dessert! Both were wonderful!! Our service was fabulous and our experience was blissful! It was the perfect way to just relax and enjoy each other the weekend before Christmas! I would highly recommend Alfred's Victorian and look forward to returning soon!!

Reviewed By BrendaTR

It's a cool looking place with street parking that shouldn't have you walk more than 2 blocks. There are stairs plus an elevator to get upstairs to the dining room.Downstairs/street level is The Nuclear Bean, a coffee shop. If I were a coffee drinker, I'd probably be there daily. They have some cafe type quick foods, tables, wifi.In the dining area, there are plenty of windows and games like corn hole and card trivia. It's noisy.My friend liked the Blue Raider Kolsch. The white rum, not so much flavor. The Fried Pickle Chips were a hit. Our friends get those everywhere they go and they liked how they were thin chips and not a big long pickle, they weren't totally batter-covered, and the chipotle ranch sauce was good.The menu has changed since the last time I was there and I was glad because I remember getting the same two salads the other times I've been there because nothing else appealed to me. This time, two of us got the BBQ Brisket Burnt Ends Tacos (soft) and they were delicious. The meat was tender, cheese was really tasty. The menu advertised "salsa roja" (red salsa) but they came with salsa verde (green salsa) instead. It was still good.We did get fair warning from our waiter that he wasn't that familiar with the new menu, but getting one of us the War Bonds Burger instead of the War Bonds Pulled Pork Sandwich was quite an error. Instead of getting the BBQ with coleslaw sandwich, this person got BBQ on top of a burger with cheese. Not what he ordered, but he's not too picky of an eater so he ate it. The burger was undercooked and partly pink.Four of us were having dinner, but the waiter wouldn't bring any drinks without holding one of our credit cards "to start the tab." Even though we were there for dinner! Then he ended up putting the person's whole bill on the card when they had cash they would have preferred to use. If you're going to offer a dining room, don't treat those patrons who are getting one drink with dinner like the guys at the bar drinking four different beers. I can quickly think of three other restaurants within walking distance of TF that don't have that ridiculous procedure.Like the person who got the wrong sandwich said, "It'll be a while before I come back."

I have heard great reviews from many friends over the years and I finally had the pleasure of going recently. These friends were absolutely correct in their description of this restaurant. The food is fabulous and plentiful. The staff is so very friendly, fun and helpful!! They really make you feel at home. Great atmosphere! The coolest reuse of an old bank!! I will definitely go back!!
