Check it out when you take the Strasburg train! Not many vegetarian options, the menu is small, but food was amazing – we got French fries and kids Mac and cheese, both were a hit and I was pleased with the crispness of the fries. They also have some drinks in the fridge behind the sitting area (kind of hard to see) and some snack there as well like chips and such. The staff was very pleasant and friendly.

They remind us about the past years what need to remember about history.They have a great food for adults and kids.They are cleaned and organized well. They have a large parking spaces available for all cars. They treat their customers with respect and appreciation for great goals and Amazing nice. They accept cash,debit card or credit card.They have sink to wash your hands and drying before buying and eating the food. All the staffs and employees are incredible intelligent and kind workers in the store and train ride with their tickets .

Very clean. Staff was very pleasant. Trip on the RR was fun, cast of the Great Diamond Heist was excellent. Rode in the dining car- roast beef sandwich was outstanding. A fun outing for couples or family

The food here is great! The smash burger is delicious and the fries are nice and crispy. It’s small, so both times we’ve eaten here we’ve sat on the front porch. It has tables that you can eat at or a high top ledge that gives you a nice few of the train coming and going. The children’s meal came with apple slices and fries, so my child was happy.

They have a limited menu, but the food is good. I got the loaded hot dog and it was very tasty. Wife got the biscuits and pimento, also good.

VERY MISLEADING! Photos and menu show fine dining and all they had was “gas station quality” burgers, fries and Tyson chicken nuggets.

Cafe 1832 is one of the shops at the Strasburg Railway. The overall experience was nice – I visited around Christmas time and some carolers came to sing in the cafe while I was there. The festive ambiance was fun! As long as you’re not expecting fine dining, you’ll probably be quite satisfied.

I watched total renovation of this restaurant and it’s much easier to say that it’s all new because it is and it is fantastic

Not a huge selection of items but a quality menu with a lot of kid friendly options and American favorites (burgers, wraps, pulled pork, crab cakes, fries, etc.). The food was great. No frozen hamburger patties here. Tasted like a unique blend of choice meats. Seasoned well and cooked perfectly.
