Boehringer's is one of our favorite fast food stops. Excellent value and we love sitting by the stream.

My four boys and I have been into Boehringers twice for lunch now. The price for all of us came in at under 20 dollars. So the value is Incredible. The boys also love to sit at the picnic tables outside and watch the birds and ducks. A great place for all people to enjoy some good food. I can't... More

Family owned and operated business that is only open in summertime. Amazing ice cream, very creamy, rich and smooth. Don't worry about the lines, they move fast. Do not drive by this place! Find a parking place, if you can, and get in line.

Best Milkshakes ever! Been going there since I was a kid,and they were there Before fast food came to Lancaster county. We always make the trip at least a couple of times a summer. The food is always good, and the quality hasn't changed since the 1960's! ( that's as far back as I can remember)

We love to go to Boehringer's for a great old fashion drive in meal. The food is good - simple old-time burgers and hot dogs, and the ice cream and shakes are well worth the calorie splurge. The picnic tables along the stream make for a great setting to enjoy a bite. Out dog loves coming with us as well... More

This is a country kitchen nestled aside a babbling brook with the quaint village of Adamstown as the backdrop. Ducks swim in the creek year-round that just love diving for french fries that occasionally fall on the ground around the numerous picnic tables under 100-foot-plus shade trees. This is one of the oldest family-operated roadside eateries with a family recipe... More

Open approximately from Memorial Day to Labor Day and all of us fans try to get here as often as we can during the season to eat as... More

This place is only open seasonally. Their ice cream is homemade and is delicious. They also serve hot sandwiches, burgers and fries. There are outdoor picnic tables for seating, but no indoor seating. There is a small creek behind and it is fun to watch the ducks while eating. It's a great place to take children.

Boehringer's is an awesome place that is open seasonally. The food and service are always great. They only accept cash, and you better read the signs because if you don't step up to order, you'll never get to eat.

My husband & I love their BBQ'S & French fries. My son loves their hot dogs. They also have the famous PA red Birch Beer. And you gotta leave room for their homemade ice cream. Love their chocolate butter fudge & chocolate almond ameretto. Seating outside by the creek which always has the local ducks hanging out for the leftovers.... More
