Founders Grille Restaurant

Founders Grille, you're catering only to the very wealthy with your insanely hiked up prices. Very unwise. Golfers want good burgers, nachos, pizza, etc., at fair prices. Oh, and French fries! You don't even serve those anymore?! And normal chicken wings! The wings used to be great, and now you've not only raised the price, but the wings are a connected wing and drum on a fancy rectangular plate. It's so silly and frustrating. Every single thing on the menu is priced like a five-star New York restaurant now. Please, remember where you are and whom you are actually catering to: Largely, groups of regular dudes, not wealthy couples on fancy dates! GET SMART, and gain back loyal customers who have been very put off by your changes. Otherwise, golfers and nearby residents of Penn National ali

We are regulars at this restaurant. First, it was disappointing that some of our favorite servers are gone in 2023. Secondly, there is rarely a light beer on tap. The prices are really high, especially for chicken wings plus they only offer one portion size. I compared the price of wings to other high scale golf courses and the wings here are 33% higher even though the price of wings has dropped to pre-pandemic levels. They do offer a 10% food discount to residents but most people on our street rarely eat many meals at the clubhouse because of the now very limited menu and high prices. I realize the golfers make up the vast majority of your revenues but you have a nearby market of 1500 homes where I venture to guess maybe 10% actually visit the establishment. You need to get some more

The Thanksgiving buffet was okay, the hot food was barely warm and there wasn't much of a variety. Our server was very friendly and helpful. I would not pay $39 per person again.

Update (11/5/2024)... I just wanted to update that now, unless you are physically able to have a golf membership, residents of Penn National Golf Community, as of this year, no longer receive the discount on food. Just another way to tell our community that screw you... greed lives on! Nothing really has changed since my original posting. Has there been a marketing/survey within the Penn National Community to determine if residents would support Founders Grill during the winter months? NO! Will the restaurant/bar close for the winter? YES What a difference a few years make... a 5 Star rating by Bunny and I, and now a 2 Star, but hoping for positive changes in the near future. As residents of Penn National, in a community that now has more then 1500 homes, we are typically a second thoug

We had the best end of October weather this past week for golf and dining outside. The Center Square Brewery that is connected to the Grille has a good IPA. Most of our meals were delicious but I would not order the Calimari. It was expensive at $11 and not good. Frozen out of a box and fried. The short rib was so tender, no bone, would get it again. Definitely great service and followed all the necessary guidelines to create a relaxed environment.
