The Dobbins house in Gettysburg pa great food, or the farnsworth house in gettysburg

If you are coming down 15 from the Harrisburg area, Wolf's is on the right just before the right turn on 74. A squinch further on 15 is Bakers which is a good reasonable diner.

The Warehouse. Near the Fairgrounds.

Try the curly fried sweet potatoes.

It's been a few years, but when at the Carlisle swap meets, I always went to a place called "The Log Cabin". It was a hugh log structure that was probably built in the teens/twenties and apparently has been a restaurant forever. They served the best steaks that I have ever had. Sorry, that I can't provide better location information. Surely, some local will have knowledge of the place.

There's a really good diner just off of Rt 81 - in Elon or something like that - going south along the tracks ....

+ on Flathead 53's recommendations, Dobbins House and Farnsworth House in Gettysburg. Great town, nice atmosphere.
Another is the Fairfield Inn in Fairfield, PA about 6 miles SW of Gettysburg.
