  Stay away from the food. We got moldy bread. Our server's first response was "that's not mold." So I shined a flashlight on it to prove that it was. The manager came out and apologized, explaining that they get a delivery of bread "almost every day" from Philadelphia. I don't care if your mother makes it every morning--moldy bread is moldy bread. We left in disgust without eating. I wouldn't trust them with cooked food if they can't get bread right!

  Horrible attitude! Stay away. First, I'll start by saying I''m huge fan of the Lancaster location. When in Lancaster, I never miss it. On this day however, I was with my kids and visited the Harrisburg location.
  
  Avoid this place and go to Appalachian Brew Co instead.
  
  We were "greeted" by a very curt bartender who could not have been busy as we were only one of two occupied tables in her section.
  
  She threw down the menus, and asked "Can I get you some drinks?"
  
  I ordered a beer, then asked my kids what they wanted...and evidently 5 seconds to think about their choice was too long because the bartender exhaled a big angry huff, and walked away...literally.
  
  After waiting several minutes for her to return, I asked to complete our order. By this time she was behind the bar waiting on only 2 or three people and says, "Yeah...you'll have to wait a minute."
  
  That was strike 2.
  
  After ordering our food and drinks, my kids (8 and 10) noticed an arcade game nearby. When I say nearby, I mean like 15' away. I then gave them a few dollars and told them to have fun.
  
  Fun evidently is not allowed in LBP's Harrisburg location as the kids were stopped from playing the game just as they were about to drop their first quarter in the machine.
  
  They returned to the table and said the bartender told them they were not allowed to play the game unless I was physically standing there with them.
  
  Again - I was 15' away. I was looking right at them.
  
  I said, "Oh...it's OK...I'll watch them from here. They're good kids. They'll be cool."
  
  Keeping her "Start With No," attitude she said, "You have to stand next to them if they're going to play the game."
  
  Strike 3.
  
  With that, I got up - paid for the drinks, and told her that she was the worst bartender I'd ever encountered and that her "Start With No. Customer is Always Wrong," attitude was not suited for public service.
  
  To make matters worse, I got a 1/2-hearted apology from the Manager.
  
  Good beer. Horrible help and management. We left there and went to Appalachian Brew Co for an AWESOME EXPERIENCE.

  I sat at the bar. Menu is limited but my garden salad with chicken was very good. Barkeep was nice. Bar was busy but most folks seem to come, drink and eat, and go.
  I got a light lager recommended by the barkeep that was very good. I tried the added blueberries in a shot glass. It is delicious if you like added sweetness in your beer. The blueberries left a streak on the glass that tells me they were frozen.
