Maybe we caught them on a bad day but it was not in any way a special experience. We were meeting friends in Stoystown and were early and so wanted to chill and have a bite. We walked in to the Lincoln Cafe and immediately felt like we were causing a problem. We wanted a table for two but were told all they had was one big table and they would have to seat others with us if necessary. No smiles, no “I am sorry seating is limited right now” just eye rolls and huffing and puffing. We said that would be fine and were seated by a server wearing an expression like she’d rather be anywhere else. We picked the place because it was described as good for small bites. So we got two drinks and an appetizer. “Is that it?” in a surly sort of way and off she stomped. The appetizer, cheese fries, was described on the menu as plenty for sharing. Not hardly. More like a glorified side. It was very good with great ingredients. That’s why they get three stars instead of two. They seated another gentleman with us and were no more polite and welcoming to him. As a matter of fact we just kind of watched and there was more irritation than courtesy out of the manager and waitstaff toward all the customers in there.

Read moreI was at this restaurant over half a dozen times last summer and every time I said this will be the last time. Because of its close proximity to the Flight 93 Memorial it is convenient to go there with people I am taking to the memorial. This year I was hoping for better quality service and food. It was worse than last year the service is poor the food is pricey. This time lunch for two was over $25 we were the third couple in the restaurant after 35 minute wait and watching the two other couples get their food in bags individually and at least 5 minutes apart so they could not eat together we got up and left. I told them I was leaving and would never be back they could keep my $25. If you want pricey food that tastes Bland and you don't mind the wait then go...
