Eckert's restaurant was a fun experience. The waitress was a lot of fun and service was great. The food was fresh and delicious. I felt like I was at Sunday dinner at my grandma's!
Whenever my son and family come home,we have to go to Eckert's for Breakfast and picking whatever is available at that time. His kids ( 2 and 6 years old) love it and the 6 year old remember Eckert's and that is a memory.
Great place to visit anytime of year. We chose the Apple Fest weekend and enjoyed every minute. We picked apples in the orchard. FUN! Ate at the restaurant and the food was superb and reasonably priced. The vegetables tasted farm fresh and their apple butter the best I've ever tasted.Shopped in the grocery store, bought beautiful mums and enjoyed being back on the farm.
This bigger more spacious store does not have the charm of the original cozy store. Much more expensive!.
My sister lived in Illinois when her husband was stationed at Scott Air Force Base. When I visited her she would take me to Eckert's....soooooo DELICIOUS...from eating inside to getting some delicious ice cream dessert outside (we still try making their Strawberry Fields dessert). When my sister had her fourth child and complications happened and they were going through a stressful time, I called Eckert's from NJ and asked them if they would deliver a meal to her house on base and they did!!!! They didn't have to. Great people! Hopefully one day I can go back and eat there again!
Great time with family! Great place and close to everything. Spring, summer, fall winter... Anytime is a great time to via it
Haven't been here since I was a kid but it was just like I remember. We rode the wagon up to the orchards and picked lots of apples. I was glad they had multiple kinds to pick, but wish they would drop people off further apart from each other. Nevertheless, it's always fun to sample what you're picking and leave with a bag full of fresh apples!
tThe restaurat at Eckert's is wonderful. Great homemade food and the all-you-can-eat fried chicken is close to best I have ever eaten! If you come seasonally, there are apple fruit picking tours and outside entertainment in the summer. I live close by and their meat selection at their country store is fantastic. Can't recommend this place highly enough...
This place is so fun and I love the fruit that you produce. The apples and the peaches are one of my favorite fruits I pick from you and the black Barryies are not good but the rest is ok
Eckert's has been around since I was a child and the fresh picked fruits and vegetables are still top notch! I has become a little commercial with the restaurant and store/smokehouse but in no way decreased the quality, just the price. For a fall afternoon with family, excellent place for one stop fall experience.
