Wayside Inn

Blown away by this quaint charming restaurant inside an old historic house. Great food. Great service. We all ordered steaks and they were cooked to perfection. May I suggest the au poivre! It’s fantastic. A must try if you’re in that neck of the woods!

The Wayside is such a lovely hidden gem that is absolutely fantastic! I have never had a bad meal here. My absolute favorite meal is the lobster ravioli! The sauce is to die for!

Everything about this place is amazing. The owners, waitresses, the food amazing. I have not had a bad meal yet from soup to nuts always been consistent and delicious, enjoyable, relaxing. 10 stars all the way. what a gem!

What a pleasant surprise; A gem hidden in the middle of no where. This old house is cozy and clean inside. The tables are placed inside what used to be the living room and dinning room of the home. The food is excellent! I went with a party of 4 and we ordered the Brie bites and bacon wrapped jalapeño shrimp as apps; the Chilean sea bass, shrimp scampi, lobster ravioli, and chicken Parmesan as the main course; followed by the Crēme brûlée, cheesecake, and creamy peach pie for desert. All of the food was presented and done well, nothing frozen here. They have a large wine list as well as draft beer and liquor. I had a Jim beam rye old fashion, it was done well. I highly recommend the Wayside Inn and can’t wait to go back!

Found this place online and thought we’d give it a try while in the area. We even made a reservation as suggested. When our GPS told us we had arrived, I thought it was wrong, but it wasn’t. The place isn’t much to look at from the outside and the Cola sign out front makes it seem more like a sandwich place. We walked in and the place is decorated with an antique charm. Staff was friendly. The early bird special had several choices. The food was absolutely delicious right down to the included dessert, ice cream sundae. The food was not just home cooking but gourmet chef home cooking. We would definitely recommend.

I grew up in this small town and went to this restaurant for years. The building has been around since 1872. Built by Joseph Schettler and operated as a tavern and hotel during the stagecoach era. When I was young it was owned by Helen Schill or Mrs. Hitler. She was a squirrelly woman who would get up early every morning and do her baking and cooking, which included homemade pies and canned goods for her restaurant. Not knowing as a child, it was probably one of the best restaurants in the state. Now she has long since past and there have been multiple owners since. I’m not sure who the new owners are but I recently visited. The food was… Excellent! Unfortunately there weren’t any homemade canned pickles for appetizers but it really still was quite good. They have kept the «grandmas house» feeling to it. I would say it is almost as good as when Mrs Hitler had it and the place would have made her proud.

Not sure what the previous post is all about, but this place is very good. It is very unique and fits in with the rural setting. The building is an old farmhouse of sorts and the interior is not cosmo, that’s for sure, but the food is the best around. Take time to make the drive. The Caesar salad is well worth the up-​charge and I have had two outstanding meals both times I have been there (which is twice in the last two months). I plan on making the hour drive again very soon.

My in laws have been coming here for years and it’s not as good as it used to be but it’s the best restaurant for miles. Veal, steak or steak are all very good. Hungarian stuffed pepper appetizer is excellent. Get the Veal steak when they have it.
Early bird specials are a good deal if you are ok eating before 5:30.

This place is in the middle of nowhere, but totally awesome. The food is ok, but you go more for the atmosphere than anything. Each dining room is decorated differently. I have been going to this restaurant since I was a little kid, and I still think it rates well. If you ever in the middle of nowhere PA try this place.
