Gronsky’s Milk House

I have lived in Washington for years and had never been to Gronsky’s…a hidden gem! The ice-​cream was delicious, the service very friendly and a nice running stream to eat your ice-​cream by. Will definitely be going back! :)

Root beer floats, ice cream, awesome burgers, cheese steak, breakfast (anything you can imagine for breakfast)…this place never disappoints! It is packed as soon as they turn the grills on in the morning until they serve the last soft-​serve of the night. A must stop when you are in the area. Grill closes early… so make sure you hit it at the right time.

This is my favorite breakfast place; the pancakes are to die for, and the service is amazing. I come at least once a month, I highly recommend it!

We love Gronsky’s. Their breakfast beats any diner around here hands down. Their fresh home fries are delicious and probably my favorite part of the entire breakfast. Their dining room is usually pretty packed for breakfast on the weekends so we usually do take out. Once or twice when we’ve called in to order breakfast they informed us that they were only doing breakfast sandwiches to go which was a little upsetting because we were looking forward to pancakes, eggs and home fries. We know how busy they get so we understand that it might not always be easy for them to offer their full menu for takeout. It certainly hasn’t stopped us from ordering takeout from them. Their lunches are great too and we love that they use Boar’s Head products so you know that the taste and quality of the food is exceptional. I guess my only complaint is that the restaurant is not open for dinner. it’s so close to home and the food is always good so it would be convenient to go there for dinner on busy days when I don’t feel like cooking but hey, we can’t win them all! They have a nice selection of ice cream too and the teenagers that work the ice cream counter are always very nice. Overall we love Gronsky’s!

Best corn beef hash I’ve ever had. The whole staff is always very good but Jen is exceptional and always in a good mood.

Great chocolate dip cones and wonderful milkshakes! We enjoyed our ice cream treats while enjoying the river in the back. Plenty of tables and space to enjoy a nice afternoon. Prices are fair, too.

Great food, great price, my only issue is the size of the place can have you waiting… so come early.

We continually go to Gronskys even though it’s a 25 minute drive from our house. Their pancakes are seriously the best and biggest pancakes i have ever had. The pumpkin pancake and pecan pancake were amazing. Every month I look forward to tasting their special pancakes. During the week though they only serve the special pancake until 11am, I guess because they are so big it takes up too much room on the grill. I also wish they would offer ½ & ½ with their coffee. If its a weekend be prepared to wait in line for a table. Love love love Gronskys!

Best ice cream in the whole area, without peer. No question. Their soft serve tastes like cream, unlike the more synthetic tasting stuff at other places. Try one of their milk shakes, ask for it to be made from hard ice cream. WOW, it’s a meal. Very good hard ice cream too. It’s all kids behind the counter, but I’ve never encountered a snotty or nasty one there — EVER. Nice kids. Great prices too.
I’ve never had breakfast there.

This place rocks. It is well worth the wait on weekends. I try to make it here at least once per month for the special pancake of the month. Breakfast here holds me over until dinner.

I never had food here but I can attest it is the best ice cream in the area and reasonable priced. Nice place outside to eat your nice cream by the river, scenic spot and relaxing.
A personal favorite I keep coming back to.

When I have a great meal and great service I give a 5 star rating. My husband and I had heard great things about this restaurant and wanted to try it out this morning. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised how clean and homey this little family run restaurant was. Then our waitress brought out our food! Wow! I got the eggs with traditional corn beef hash. The eggs were beautifully cooked and the house made hash was filled with delicious corn beef, baked potatoes, green peppers and onions. I love that this was made in house and not some canned hash reheated! My husband ordered eggs, link sausage (huge links), hash browns and a cinnamon apple pancake. When his order was delivered we gasped at the size of the pancake! He whispered to me «there is no way I can eat all this»! 20 minutes later as we sat back and looked at our empty plates we both started laughing!!!
The coffee was very good and the prices were even better. The service was very prompt and friendly. This is our new go to breakfast place!

Love it here! Just moved to the area and we have already been to Gronsky’s quite a few times. Try the pancakes (larger than the plate) or pork roll breakfast sandwiches. Definitely need to get some home fries too! The portions are large, food is amazing and service is pretty quick.

Blueberry pancakes looked great
Finally seated at 12:05pm
Told breakfast stops at noon!
Better to say so while I’m waiting

I grew up going to this place. Live sitting by the river and eating their ice cream. Food is really good too!

Delicious food but don’t be in a hurry. Be prepared to wait for a seat because it’s a small dining area including countertop seating at the grill.
Be prepared to wait for your food as well. Seems like cook only prepares one table’s order at the time. Only 3 people were working at 9am on a Saturday morning, cook, cook’s assistant and waitress.
Blueberry pancake was delightful and was the entire size of the plate! Definitely can be shared between 2 people as part of a meal.
Pork roll, bacon, home fries and eggs were all prepared very well making a tasty meal after a very long wait.

The food is delicious! I ordered Hash and Eggs any way you like. Most people look confused when I ask for basted eggs. She not only knew what basted eggs were but she cooked it perfectly!
My husband ordered the breakfast platter #2 and lets just say he cleaned the plate.
If we lived here we would probably come here often like the locals who walk in through the back door and the waitress knows their «usual».
If you have the time hang out and watch the stream roll or go to the state park and enjoy the scenery.

Stopped by here over the summer to grab some ice cream and the place did not disappoint. It’s so cute, and has picnic tables set up outside so you can enjoy your ice cream with some peaceful scenery and listen to the water.
I haven’t tried their food but will definitely go back to do so!
I’ve been here a few times with my daughter because she loves sitting outside watching the water. Cute hole in the wall place. I would never know it was there if it wasn’t for Unilocal.Thanks Unilocal

Went to Gronsky’s on a Unilocal recommendation as I drove East on 78. It was about 5 minutes off of 78 but I never would’ve found it were it not for its other reviews.
Small place, half ice cream shop, half convenience store, half hole in the wall diner. Sat at the counter because the place was packed. Previous reviewers weren’t joking about being the only people there not wearing camouflage.
Had the corn beef hash, it was awesome. Watching the grill 80% of the people (even to go orders) were having the pancakes, which were enormous.
Will go back the next time I’m driving on 78 at breakfast time.

This place is a staple in the community when it comes to breakfast. They serve up some huge pancakes, baked French toast (creamy and delicious), great eggs and omlets, and hot coffee.
If you want to eat here on weekends either get there early or be prepared to wait. If you’re cool with sitting at the counter, you’ll get seated way faster than waiting for a table… But regardless, it’s worth the wait.
