Trackside Cafe

We are reenactors that attend the annual Trains and Troops event, and always make it a point to eat here. Despite the unpretentious presentation, the food is home made and very good. As some of us have to watch our displays, forcing us to take turns to go eat here. The chili is what worth waiting in ANY line for, made from scratch with hearty slices of tomato. It takes the frost off of the event every November. Their french fries are crispy and tasty as well; I ate all of mine, and stole half of my friend's. We look forward to the event every year, and will continue to come to the Cafe, and tell every visitor to the event to do so as well.

The food is very good! They have basic faire, hot dogs, cheesesteaks, etc., etc., tons of boardwalk fries! There were kids running it when we were there. It's small in there but lots of tables. Somehow they make it work! Place is nice and clean too! Will definitely be back! Gotta get a whoopie pie! Really good and under $2.50!

Very impressed by the young staff here. When the Thomas crowd thinned, they were immediately out with a broom, grabbing the trash, restocking the cooler. Got a smile and a greeting from several of them. Management here is either lucky to have a good group of self-starters, or they're really serving up the motivation.

This restaurant was outstanding!!! Everyone in my family loved it. The chicken and hamburgers, the cheese, and the best fries we've ever had. Good whoopie pie. Wonderful customer service! Greatly appreciated. Prices aren't bad for the only place out here and being a tourist part. Thank you.

If you visit the Strasburg Railroad, you may want a meal. The Trackside Cafe is the only choice. The Trackside offers a limited menu in a dingy dining area. This is counter service. Satisfying appetite nay improve star rating.
