Went today for a late lunch plus had a gift card. Was here seven years ago and was not impressed. I had a mushroom Swiss burger, French onion soup, and a small cup of fries that had cheese and bacon bits on top. The burger was perfectly cooked medium and the mushrooms were very good (fresh?). Very tasty. The French onion soup was good, not great but it was still way above average and the chips (homemade I believe) were very tasty. My wife had Parmesan crusted chicken with a sweet potato. She says it was good. The bread they serve before dinner is always good. We will definitely come back. They are every bit as good as Texas Roadhouse. And I LOVE Texas Roadhouse.

7. Big Mike's Crabhouse and Grill

I had prior good experience at Big Mike's with ordering steamed crabs, so though we'd try their crab cakes. The crab cakes were at or above market price compared to other local restaurants and were mediocre at best. No back fin lump meat could be found, more of a blend of other small shreds of crab, lots of filler, and lacked the distinctive sweet lusciousness of authentic Chesapeake Bay lump back fin. I've been reading that many restaurants are using crab meat from overseas, or Louisiana, definitely not Chesapeake Bay Blue crabs. Flavor was ok, not great. The platter does come with 2 sides which is good. The coleslaw was very nice.

This diner was clean and comfortable. They offer a very broad selection of meals whether it be for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The prices are very reasonable and they have a nice selection of daily specials that represent additional values. We tried wraps that tasted very good and came with a side of chips. Utz's, of course.

We were in town for the weekend, staying in Hanover for one evening and based on reviews and research (I'm vegetarian, and mostly vegan), opted to eat at Staub's. We had an exceptional experience. We generally love to sit on the bar/cocktail side of restaurants, but decided to sit at one of the tall booths on the restaurant side for additional space, as my husband was recovering from a knee injury, which was quieter overall. Service was friendly, inviting, and attentive, but not intrusive. Our server was authentically interested in ensuring our food was served as expected and that we were enjoying what we ordered, as she checked back with us multiple times throughout our meal, which was great. Our food was really flavorful, both menu items we'd return for. I ordered the Asparagus & Artichoke Whole Wheat Pasta (my husband had the grilled chicken that is served with it), and he ordered the Portobellp Grilled Sandwich on Marbled Rye. The only recommendation I have is to offer the Pasta Entree without Meat for a set price with the option to add meat for an additional price. It's a bit pricey otherwise at $16. I love that this dish is served tossed in olive oil, and not a heavy cream-based sauce, to allow the flavors of the vegetables to be more present. Delicious. My husband ordered the bread pudding to go (they topped with cinnamon and included a side of whipped cream since it was to-go, otherwise this dessert is generally served with ice cream). The bread pudding is decadent (and sizable, definitely a portion size to share). We visited on an early Friday evening, but was fairly busy, and steady, so would advise arriving on the early side to ensure seating.Highly recommend.

Have been coming to this place since I was a kid. If you like chili dogs with onions, this is your restaurant. The chocolate milkshakes are done the old fashioned way and are thick, chocolatey goodness. The hotdogs come slathered in finely minced chili and onions - it is worth it to ask for extra chili. This is a family owned concern and has been that way since the 1900s. It is not canned chili but a recipe that is kept closely held by the family owners. Yes, you will smell like onions after your dining experience but this place is disgustingly, amazingly good. This is not veggie healthy, not carb conscious, not calorie friendly but omg it is worth every sinful and chili laden bite. For just a few minutes embrace your inner need for a hot dog with everything and go with it. You wonât regret it.

This place has an extensive menu in addition to lots of daily specials. Itâs always hard to decide what to get here because the have many regional specialties that arenât available where I live. Came twice in one week on this trip. The first time we went for late breakfast & our table ordered omelets, smothered homefries & Kunzler brand bacon & ham. I miss Kunzler brand meats. I had to have a piece of peanut butter pie & it was delicious. Later in the week- a group of us visited for lunch again & ordered the following: crab cakes, turkey, gravy & filling, roast beef, gravy & filling, and broasted chicken. Crab cakes were true MD style, large, no filler, full of lump crab & broiled perfectly. Roast beef was tender & lean and the filling was fluffy & moist. Turkey moist & tasty served with same filling. The turkey gravy was a bit thick & gelatinous in texture, though still tasted pretty good. Broasted chicken had a thin crispy coating on outside & juicy inside. Sides of corn nuggets & green beans were particularly good. Service was very friendly & accommodating. Looking forward to another visit.

I should preface my remarks by saying that we opted to eat upstairs in the Brew Pub. In hindsight, this may have been a mistake. The seating and atmosphere were warm & friendly, but the service was dreadfully slow. In addition, everyone was just about done, and I had not received my soup and my daughter hadn't received her crab dip appetizer. Anyway, the good presentation was excellent. My daughter had the Chicken Tenders Wrap (fried chicken tenders, honey mustard & tomato). My son had the Grilled Ham & Gouda Sandwich special, and I had the Soup & Half Sandwich special (Veggie Pistou Soup that was just okay) and a 1/2 grilled corned Beef, Gruyere, & Camelized Onion (the taste was good, but the corned beef was hard to find!). With just 3 draft beers, the bill was $54.06 before tip. That is most likely the mole and only time I will visit the Warehouse Gourmet in Hanover, PA.
