Highline Restaurant and Railway Lounge

This placed is reopened!
New menu and staff.
Come revisit if u have been away. I tried the pork belly and it was one of the best. Right up there with moromito!

Well, I will start with the positive. The food was very good. The portions were a little small and a little expensive, but it’s that kind of restaurant, so it’s not really a negative just a point. The service is where it kind of takes a turn for the worse. First they lost or reservation, it was my birthday dinner, but that was fixed because the restaurant wasn’t busy. We were sat in the back dinning room with a bar, it was nice. The only problem was, is that the room was also set up for a party of 17. I wish we were sat somewhere else. It took a while for the waitress to come over, when she did, it took a very long time to get the drinks and then again a very long time getting the drinks refilled.
So something that struck me as odd. My wife and I ordered meals and received salads. There was a couple that sat at the table behind us and I believe they were friends of the manager. They had much better service and were offered bread and seemed like there was always someone at the table taking care of them. I did notice that our waitress had tables all throughout the restaurant, so I think that made it even harder for her.
The meal was fine, the service was sub-​standard. I don’t think we will go back. Sorry but it was only ok.

First timer. Party of 9, food took a long time to come out. When is came out it was warm and some was right down cold. I sent my crab cakes back. Second time still warm. Getting late and had to move on. Wife had shrimp and ravioli. Over priced. 3 or 4 ravioli with 3 jumbo shrimp. Cost on this plate about 6 – 7 dollar but the price was near $ 25.00 and it too was not hot. Really tight on giving more bread.
For the positives. The presentations of the plates were wonderful. The restaurant was decorated warmly. The waitress was very apologetic.
I was also shocked that the owners who were sitting at the bar eating, did not come over and thank us for coming or ask if everything was ok. For the price $$$$$ and my first experience, I would not be willing to return.

It’s 10:00pm and we’re leaving the restaurant with our 3 yr old. We arrived at 7pm with a reservation. We were seated promptly, but we didn’t see a server for 30 minutes! The whole night was so unbelievably slow, if we weren’t visiting good friends, we would have left within that first hour. With 3 children at the table, we ordered for them first— 90 mins later, their food arrived. The owner and her husband were behind the bar sweating the service while our server was practically non existent all night. This is a prime example of why we prefer to stay at home as opposed to dining out in this area.

Been to the Highline Restaurant on several occasions. The food is consistently delicious and the service is always friendly.
My family and I have never had a bad meal here. Kudos to the chef. A very inventive menu always has a diverse selection to choose from.
The décor is well thought out and tasteful. Ambiance is obviously important to the staff. It seems that lighting and music is well regulated throughout the day.
The service is rather slow and is sometimes at a glacial pace. We had a reservation on the hour and despite walking by empty tables to our seats I didn’t get my first drink until half-​passed. From the hostess to the wait staff there seems to be a lack of urgency. It would be nice to see some support from other waiters. I noticed empty handed employees walking by our table full of empty plates on several occasions.
I love this place and will continue to support it. It could very well become a destination restaurant considering the choices in the area.

Nice place and good food but I can’t get enjoy my meal will the owner is constantly scolding her wait staff in front of me. It just makes a bad atmosphere. Maybe they should do take out and I could enjoy it with out the nasty owner.

The food was great especially the Crab Cake service was prompt and the deserts were outstanding. It was a little chilly so take a sweater.

It’s hard to review anywhere (especially finer dining) when the service is bad. Time after time I said it couldn’t get worse but it proved me wrond. They really need a service manager and some manner standards.
On to the food; here we had one great shrimp ravioli dish and one petite fillet that tasted like it came from Hosses… an over cooked steak soaked in crème and the potatoes were fried to a crisp. The baked potatoe they brought as a replacement was awkwardly sweet. Then when it was all done we sat and waited more as servers just passed us by.

A bit pricey but the Grilled Chicken & Avocado on Herb Focaccia was very tasty. Started off with a zucchini and Parmesan soup which was excellent.
Service was also good /​unobtrusive.
Will go back to try additional menu items.

Highline is Greencastle’s fancy restaurant. That’s pretty much all you need to know.
There’s nothing wrong with this place; it’s a perfectly fine, ordinary fancy restaurant. You know: pricey, but nice.
I’ve been there three times and the food was very good; the lamb special I had last time was outstanding. If you’re super into food, don’t expect much in the way of surprises or revelations, but this is a great choice for people in the area who want to mark a special occasion with an elegant meal.

Excellent… but at this price point, cloth napkins are expected. That’s really my only complaint, it’s a bit tacky and not expected from an establishment which is trying to
convey a higher standard. Food is excellent, service is getting better. Definitely worth the trip. I’d recommend the pork chop, crab cake and/​or the Reuben. The French onion soup is good also. Frederick feel in tiny Greencastle. BUT please class it up and spend some money on real napkins; you should know better!

Crabcakes were delicious with very little filler! Wait staff was attentive and funny!
On the covered patio, expect to get rattled a bit by the frequent trains! Not a bad thing, just different…
We’ll be back!

Love it. Great fresh food, awesome beer selection, friendly servers, and the occasional train… a treasure near home!

I’m originally from Chambersburg, but now live between DC and Baltimore. I was in town for a family function. I would have expected this level of restaurant to be in the DC/​Baltimore area. I was so pleasantly surprised by the décor, food, drinks, and service. I had the fish tacos and they were phenomenal. The sauce was spot on. Others in our group had the crab cake, turkey breast panini, hummus dip, and sweet potosi fries. Everything got fave reviews. The wine list was extensive and the sever knowledgeable. We had a large group, and our sever attended the group well, but allowed us to have our space to chit chat. He struck a great balance. The décor was modern, with a touch of rustic chic. I can’t believe that this is in downtown Greencastle. What a great find!

Excellent — great food, great service.
Funky little converted house right on the railroad tracks (active tracks, too — we had a train go past during our meal).
This is a «don’t miss» place in Greencastle/​Hagerstown —

Visiting the area and our friend recommended this as her favorite place.
She was right. I had the best pork chop I have ever had in a Restuarant. My wife had the best stuffed chicken breast and our friend had the crab cakes. This was after the mushroom bisque and the brie crab artichoke dip.
But wait, there’s more!
We had coffee with chocolate cake with peanut butter icing. The food was amazing, professionally prepared and the presentation was perfect. Great flavors and excellent service. We might move here from Arizona to be closer…

Make reservations ! A must go ! I took my wife on valentines day and wow was she pleased with my choice for dinner. We both got the chicken cordonbleu which was perfectly amazing. Heather our server was engaging and fun to have at our table. The owner checked on us and was very mindful of our comfort by adjusting the shades to block the early evening sun. The best choc/​peanut butter layer cake I have ever eaten. Clean and well appointed a real find for the small town of Greencastle.

This is hands down my favorite restaurant in Greencastle, and we have some good ones.
Very high quality ingredients, including tuna salad made from a fresh albacore filet, grass-​fed steaks, and house made dressings and sauces.
The soups are a highlight, especially for lunch, and the sandwiches are huge and delicious. The dinner entrees are also high quality and plentiful. And catch this — British ex-​pats come here for the fish and chips!
I do wish they would work on developing some larger meal size salads instead of side salads you can top with protein. This, and the hit or miss waitstaff are the only reasons I rate them one star instead of two.
This is a unique, beautiful, fun place to be. The food is fresh and the servings are generous. The trains going by add a very nice, distinct ambiance.
Great for indoor and outdoor dining, and super for happy hour drinks, a business lunch, or an evening out.

Beautiful space in all aspects. The owner greeted me at the door and took me on a tour before searing in the beautiful bar. The craft beer selection is awesome and just big enough for this small town. The mushroom soup makes me wanna curl up to a fire and nap… it’s amazing. The lunch menu, however, is a bit plain. Not many options. Only sandwiches and salads… needs expansion. But otherwise, I’m impressed. Lets see what dinner has to offer. I’ll be back…

Have made three visits to the Highline Coffeehouse and Café since it opened and we are sure to return. Their signature turkey sandwich at lunch is just plain awesome. Nice atmosphere, good service (although not that fast), good food. Note drinks are limited — no liquor license so you may want to BYOB. They have a small bottle service charge — I think it was $ 3.75.
Definitely worth a visit when you are in Greencastle.
