Appalachian Brewing Company

Perfect stop, so happy we stopped off for dinner. We were seated immediately, ever aspect of the place was clean and inviting. Lindsey, who served us, was cute, bubbly and informed even adding some suggestions that we were happy to take. Meal came quickly was flavorful and perfectly cooked. I had the Fire Jumper (spicy and delicious), son had the Smokey Beef Quesadillas (no complaints from that end of the table but I didn’t taste any of his) Wife enjoyed the RockFish Tacos (tasted great, and cooked well. You would know if they were using old grease but not here, they were light and crispy without that Deep Fat taste.)
Can’t wait to go back to try some more on the Menu.
Oh, and Thanks Lindsey!

This place is great. Has great burgers and quesadillas. The beverages there are wonderful. It seems to always be packed, which makes it a long wait for food. Staff is very friendly. Would recommend for friends.

Go for the beer. It would be much better if the food was cheaper. Food isn’t good enough to cost as much as it does. It is a great atmosphere and their beer is really good.

Cheers to something better opening up where Kokomos once sold the best wings outside of Buffalo.
I’ll only miss their weekly marquee. It was pretty funny.
If you miss anything ABC served, drive 15 minutes west.

Ok, we’ve been back.
Place was chosen for a wheelchair bound handicapped friend of ours due to the ease of entry for the wheelchair. THEIR choice. Everything was great there and we really appreciated that. We were able to easily help them get arranged @ a table and after hugs and kisses ordered a round …
We got sat in the dining room and saw several easels set up with blank canvases. When I inquired I was told that they were doing the new painting in public thing which although I think is totally cool, wasn’t when you don’t know about it in advance.
I’m hard of hearing.
I spent the entire meal trying to be polite to our dinner guest but couldn’t hear past the teacher. I sat directly across from our guest.
Please don’t get me wrong … I really DO like this idea and have had several friends tell me it’s a lot of fun. It’s just that I wanted to enjoy dinner with my dinner guests and not try to read lips while the teacher presented a lesson on a sound system that drowned out our dinner conversation.
I really don’t think that was very fair to your dinner guests that hadn’t paid the (I believe) approximately 40 dollars for this event.
We came to a Resturant for dinner and conversation, not training.
I refused to make an issue out of it @ the time because seeing our friend was a rare pleasure and more important to us than what occurred but this is my 2^nd experience with ABC that has left a bad taste in my mouth. (1^st was the Cameron St location that wouldn’t take a birthday dinner reservation for 12 people when the birthday guest SPECIFICALLY chose ABC)
If you want to do these events, it would be advisable to either hold them in a separate environment from the dining room or don’t serve full service dinner.
You got 2 stars for treating our guest so well.
— 2 for not being able to hear the guest at my own table though. :-(

Great food, excellent server. Didn’t need to use anything on our burgers, perfectly spiced. Excellent selection of great beers. Will most definitely return for more!

The food is good. I’ve never been here while it was busy. This particular ABC smells very weird, in my opinion. Turned me off a bit. I’d prefer the Harrisburg or Mechanicsburg location.

So today I got the turkey dinner special. When the food arrived, it arrived with turkey gravy. It was good but I requested more gravy. When it came out, I got beef gravy? WTF. So I tried to make it work but lord the beef gravy was so disgusting. Needless to say, my food was terrible because of the incorrect gravy. It pissed me off more when I saw I was charged for the additional side of gravy!!! BS

Went today for late lunch while out visiting family. The fish & chips I had were excellent. Other family members, who got burgers, quesadillas, and various sandwiches, were also happy with their choices. The service was pretty decent, too. What I was most happy about war that the place was really well-​designed in terms of handicap accessibility since my grandmother uses a walker and often has difficulty getting around when she makes it out of the house. Nice, handicap accessible bathroom, conveniently located, tables not too close together etc. Only thing I would change is that the handicapped parking spot, while it IS the closest spot to the door, is actually a few spots over from the bottom of the ramp to come in.
But like I said, great food, great beer, friendly waitstaff. They even have great root beer for the non-​drinkers.

Classic bartender service that aims to make you feel like a friend. On a late Monday night they seemed to have secured the charm of a local dive bar despite clearly being a large trendy successful craft operation. I was joined by classic regulars regaling their glory days. No one beer will blow your mind here, but they are all well made (high 70s at worst, mostly about 80 on a 100 pt scale)
I do appreciate the variety compared to Troegs (another good option nearby). They had probably 3 trendy style IPAs but ran a good gammut of scotch ales, stouts, barleys, lagers, maltier options etc. All in all there had to be at least 12 homemade craft brews. Will try food next time!

Went for paint nite. We got a meal before time. My friend got sausage gumbo and rice dish (sausage chicken, okra and rice). There is a little spicy kick to it what makes it so good. I got the pork belly tacos. There are 3 tacos total. They cooked it Korean style with cabbage n some creamy sauce on top. Serve with cilantro rice and also taste good. The service was Ok. The painting was fun and relaxing.

Nice ABC location. Bar service is great and the Bartender was very informative of the new Octoberfest menu. All is as one would expect from ABC and I had no complaints.

Love the Kipona Fest back on tap — definitely a fall beer. Rich slightly darker beer with sweet and bitter coffee undertones. The food today was okay. Service was a bit off — but they weren’t that busy early Saturday evening…

Libke the one in collegeville a little better but was nice place. Food always good though.
Did mean to go for Lancaster but was closed so this was a good alternative.

Delicious beer. Wife’s rockfish tacos were overly breaded, to the point where she could not taste the fish. My meatloaf plate was tasty with delicious beer-​flavored gravy, very good mashed potatoes and veggies. The flight of 8 beers were terrific.

My wife ordered a burger no more than medium. First one came out very well done. We have been sitting here waiting for replacement for over 15 minutes. I’m sorry, but the free desert doesn’t make up for our inconvenience.

Came here while in Harrisburg for business with friends. We ate outside on their deck (so nice!) and were seated right away upon coming in. Our waiter was friendly and attentive.
We got the mini beer sampler, sweet potato fries, fish tacos and a veg head quesadilla. My friend who is a vegetarian was very happy with their good selection of vegetarian options, she found something right away and was happy with her meal. The fish tacos I had were delicious and I got them with a honey chipotle sauce/​glaze where was EXTREMELY hot, but tasty at the same time. I should have opted for the other option of sauce as it was a bit too hot for my taste to the point where I could barely finish the tacos I had put the sauce on. Overall, very tasty and worth visiting in the Harrisburg area for dinner!

I’ve been to ABC a few times, this was my first visit to the Mechanicsburg location. My wife and I shared a flight of 8 beer samples and the hot fire burger or something like that. It was delicious and we’ll definitely be back.

Came in for an early dinner haven’t been here in a few months had the Sausage and pierogi plate real nice portion great flavor with the pierogies fried up crispy and the Sheyogan Brats were excellent with the mustard sauce

Went here with some colleagues while in town for business. I tend to be very picky about food and it is very rare for me to go somewhere and not have something to complain about. I absolutely loved my dish.
I would also like to mention that I have visited many (micro) breweries across the world and I have yet been to one ordering a flight of everything hey have and actually LIKE everything they have… until I went here. Great quality beer.
Service was great, it was a little busy however my colleagues and I never went more than a minute or two without service.
I will return every time I come back to the Harrisburg area for work!
