We came for breakfast with Santa and we had the most accommodating server and even talk with the  chef about our complaints. The chef Heard I request and met our needs however, the price point was very high considering that the photos with Santa did not come with $150 breakfast

A Birthday to Remember at Belvedere Inn For my birthday dinner, my wife and I decided to celebrate at Belvedere Inn, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable dining experiences we've ever had. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable hospitality. The ambiance was simply enchanting—elegant yet inviting, with soft lighting and a touch of sophistication that set the perfect tone for the evening. The attention to detail in the decor was remarkable, creating an atmosphere that felt both luxurious and intimate. The menu was a culinary masterpiece, offering a variety of dishes that appealed to every palate. Every plate that arrived at our table was not just beautifully presented but also an explosion of flavor. We Started out with steamed mussels white wine, garlic, shallots and house made bread. I opted for the chicken piccata, cooked to perfection, while my wife savored the pan-seared scallops w/ veggies and chopped lobster, which was rich and creamy without being overwhelming. The dessert—a chocolate hazelnut richer with caramel and cocoa crumbs—was the cherry on top of an already extraordinary meal. What truly set Belvedere Inn apart, though, was the service. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made thoughtful recommendations that elevated our experience even further. To our surprise, the staff also brought out a complimentary dessert to mark my birthday, complete with a personalized message. In every aspect—food, ambiance, and service—Belvedere Inn exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply indulge in an unforgettable meal, I wholeheartedly recommend it. We can’t wait to return!

We had a lovely evening. I have always liked the food.

Our favorite pub/restaurant in central PA! We love going there and taking friends! Many great lunches and dinners and family celebrations over the years.

First time to Josephine’s for a Special dinner out before the holidays. Food and our server Nate were wonderful and we will return. One word of caution-happy hour at the bar is 4:30-6:30 and it was crowded and extremely noisy. The Hostess seated us next to the bar and we couldn’t hear ourselves talking. After returning to the hostess she moved us to a quieter table away from the bar area. Very accommodating and she totally agreed. Looking forward to returning
