Default Great food and service...

Not many places left out there fellas. I like to tell people I'm not moving freight I'm just looking for a good place to eat. Fast food is gross, the chain truck stops just buy a little better line of pre-cooked garbage. So what does that leave us? Where are all the best places to eat? Well here's a start Le-Hi truck stop on 64 and 81 at the 195 Can't go wrong there. Also the Gas Grill at the 115 in Indianapolis on I-70 To much food, great prices and great service at both those places. Where do you all eat?

Here you go, a good list of places to eat in PA all recomended by me(I been to each) and all have truck parking. I hate Fast food and "CHAIN" truckstops are all the same:

83 Dinner-York,PA Exit 28 off I83

Jenni's dinner- Ronks,PA(right outside Lancaster) Route 30

The "NEW SMITHVILLE DINER"-New Smithville,PA Exit 45 I78(next to the Bandit truck stop)

Midway Diner-Bethel,PA Exit 16 off I78 and if you are in that area before 5pm, the little AMISH diner behind the Midway is out of this world. They close at 5:45PM though

Frystown All American-Frystown,PA exit 10 off I78. Yes it is a truck stop but not a "CHAIN". The resturant is excellent

Chuck stop-Gap,PA RT41 on top of the hill. Also known as the "CHUCK STOP TRUCK STOP"

Damn it, Driver ! You covered all my favorites,but I can't believe you missed "Esters Diner" Exit 6 off I78e or Exit 8 off I78w Next to Redners food Mart on Rte 22 in Fredericksburg,PA... I figured you would have been there since you mentioned Frystown & Midway! I've ate at 5 of your 6 on the list...

Heard of it. Just never ventured off 78 to that part of 22. Most of those places I listed I sometimes spend my break at. Might have to try it next week on my way back.

There is usually plenty of truck parking and pretty good food .... it's a good no hassle in and out for wiggle-wagons cause all parking is pull in and pull out. Of course,I didn't know any good spots when I was pulling doubles. Now I run a walking floor trailer to alot of farms in south central PA,and see places ,but have no need to stop!
