Brooke Hoover and Chris Arnold were BEYOND GREAT and went out of their way to make it nice for us!! My parents and I met halfway for Easter but we made the decision to do so at the last minute. We couldn’t get a table in the restaurant and the bartenders were ignoring us so Brooke and Chris jumped into action, got us food and made sure we were taken care of and turned it all around for us! My Dad has dementia and Brooke and her husband spent time talking to him while we were waiting for food after the 6 hour drive here.Greg, the General Manager, is the bomb! I just love him! He checked us in and made us feel special from the get go, made us feel like family and also just went above and beyond. He’s GREAT! James and Joy in The Breeches Cafe are also a pure delight! My parents and I had a wonderful weekend together! Food & drinks: Spent a LOT in food and drinks and Ryan was a jerk. Brooke & Chris saved the day.

I hosted a company dinner there this past weekend in their map room and the service (Becka) food, drink and overall experience could not be better. I do these dinner on a semi-annual basis and my entire staff said this was the best one we have ever had. Ten star worthy, we will be back this summer!Food & drinks: We had the filet medalions and crab cakes as well as the tuna and brussle sprouts starts, amazing all around

We went there tonight for the first time. The food was ok but extremely over priced for the very small portion. We actually left there and stopped elsewhere for food on the way home because we were still hungry after a very expensive meal. First and last time we will go here.

A friend and I went for lunch in the Allenberry Cafe. I ordered a chicken sandwich. It arrived wrapped in aluminum foil which I thought was strange since we were eating in. As soon as I opened it, I knew why. It was a slippery mess of melted cheese and soggy bread that I couldn't pick up, and I couldn't cut through the roll with a knife to eat it in pieces. The waitress said there was a new chef. So, no lunch for me, and no apologies.

Came here for thanksgiving buffet… It was way overpriced for what it was and very crowded. We were standing outside in the cold for 25 minutes waiting to get inside. Then, we went to the buffet to get food to find out they were temporarily out of mashed potatoes. No problem, we moved down the line and got the rest of our plate. By the time we were able to get back in line for the mashed potatoes, however, it had been refilled and re-emptied by the overcrowded restaurant. After waiting to get the mashed potatoes, our food was cold. In addition, some of the food was just served cold! Very upsetting for the price of the restaurant. I hope someone reads this and decides not to book a Thanksgiving dinner here. Have a Happy Thanksgiving at home with family instead! :)

We were there for the Thanksgiving day buffet. For $80 we were very disappointed and most likely not be back. It's been awhile since we were there and I now understand that there are new owners. Previously there was a much better selection( I remember smoked salmon) on the buffet with sliced ham and turkey NOT SHREDDED. They also had cinnamon buns on the desert table that were very popular previously which you sell at the front desk for a ridiculous price for such a small bun (half the size of a Cinnabon). The coffee was good.

The room was to die for. Very Spaces. All I have to say is that whoever made my chicken ceaser salad it was awesome. Though the sides were a little blacken but other than that, it was Superb. Also, whoever made my vodka and redbull was good. Kudos to both of them.Rooms: Very nice rooms.Food & drinks: The chicken ceaser salad is awesome.

I rarely write reviews - only when I'm absolutely disgusted by a business or absolutely blown away. In this case I couldn't wait to write a review in the hopes it helps Allenberry to market itself because it is by far one of the most incredible places I've ever been, and I've been to many of the worlds nicest places. I think the only place in the world that matches Allenberry when it comes to hospitality, service, kindness is Kyoto in Japan where service is seen as sacred. There is something sacred about Allenberry not only in this sense - but in terms of the place itself is a little slice of Heaven. The environment is gorgeous, the property and all its spaces are clean and stunning, the rooms are spotless and luxurious and comfortable. The food is delicious. But it is truly the people who make this place so special. Never in my life in America have I been blessed with so much kindness and care. We had some pretty big hurdles as travelers moving from north to south with all our things and the staff treated us like family. Thank you so much Greg, Paul and everyone else for making Allenberry a place we happily bought hoodies to represent. I can't wait to run into someone who sees it and says "you've been to Allenberry!?" I feel that this place attracts special people and magical moments and I can't wait to go back. We will definitely spend a night here every year as we travel back and forth to see family. Theirs and ours :) if it's this beautiful when the leaves have totally fallen off the trees and the snow has yet to fall I can't even imagine how it looks with a blanket of snow or in full bloom or colored autumn. On my way out a woman who grew up in the area stopped in to buy 4 boxes of their sticky buns which she said have been perfect since she was a kid. She was on her way to visit a dying friend to bring them to her and other family and friends. She insisted on buying me some to eat with my fiancé. I just couldn't believe it! This place is pure magic. God Bless what's left of this kind of America.

Allenberry was a one stop shop for our dreamy October wedding. From the space we used for our reception (Carriage Room) to the food, to the accommodations, to the amazing customer service we could not be happier. Our guests were raving about our wedding and I have to thank Jenna, Ian, and Greg for paying attention to every detail.

We always stay at Allenberry when we are in town. The property is absolutely stunning and it’s great feeling like you’re in the country but you’re close to Carlisle. I will say, the food was better last year and so was the customer service. One of our cabins only had one working shower for 12 people and another rooms AC units isn’t working properly. They did fix the shower luckily but it just seems a little less nice than last year. That said, I’m sure we will be back next year! Small pet peeve - the rope lights around the property are on all night and it’s bright. There aren’t blackout curtains in the rooms (just regular curtains) so it can get bright. Bring a sleep mask if you’re a light sleeper.

A wedding at Allenberry is truly something special. The character of the grounds and buildings offers the perfect setting for your dream wedding. It is a unique find to have a venue that allows for flexibility and a different location for each part of your event, not to mention lodging and activities for your guests. Our wedding took place creekside, with the cocktail hour on the terrace, and reception in the carriage house. After working through some communication challenges early in the planning process, the staff was professional and our day went off without a hitch. The partnership with the wedding planner Jenna, helped make all of the final details come together and ensure as a the couple, we could just enjoy our special day with family and friends.

Over all great place but the reason we always go is because the honey buns but last time we went they had no honey buns and it felt like the server wasn’t there half the time and it was not packet at all like it was just us and two other
