My favorite restaurants

Nice, upscale French bakery and restaurant. Tip: Go between 5-7pm for a great happy hour -- half off many wines and cocktails, and inexpensive appetizer options.

Great brewery with a variety of beers for everyone. Main brewery is 20 minutes away in Columbia, but now a much closer taproom is open in downtown Lancaster!

Little off the beaten path, but if your looking for a scenic 20 minute drive outside of Lancaster, this is a great spot to mingle with the locals. Fantastic beers! Make sure to check their hours before going: open on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday.

Favorite kid-friendly activities

Really fun experience for kids and kids of all ages, right downtown! May want to double check how long it takes for your pottery to cure, if you are only in town for a few days :) Fun tip: for a nice adult date night, come with a bottle of wine and paint the night away!
