What a spectacular meal. Every time we eat here, it’s fabulous! Don’t come looking for fancy fine china, that’s not what they specialize in. But what you do get is nothing short of excellent. As an added benefit, the service is fast, attentive and extremely friendly. Angela was our waitress. Her suggestions & service were the icing on the cake. If you’re driving by, or even if you have to make a small pilgrimage- it’s well worth it!

Went to get lunch after a nice day of work. Food came out quick and fresh. Christine was very polite and made sure we we token care. Ready to go back already.

Awesome.. friendly staff and patrons. Uncle Johns smoked sausage highly recommended! Found this place by accident very happy we did!

Would definitely come here again the BBQ sampler was delicious and worth the price for the amount of food you get. Chrissy & Angela are amazing

We came for lunch with the family and the food and staff was awesome! Krissy and Angela were our waitresses and they were fantastic! They were so friendly and made you feel like family. We got the samplers, pulled pork sandwiches, and shot gun Phillies and it was all awesome!! We will be back for sure! Thank you!!

I just got home from a great meal at Red Top Pit Stop. I took a group of 18 for lunch on a Sunday at noon. I called ahead to “warn” the restaurant of the large party and they were very welcoming of the group. When we arrived our tables were clean, set up and ready for us. Although Red Top is known as a BBQ place, the group was impressed with the depth and breadth of the menu. The service was fantastic! Adrianna and Christina were very friendly and teamed up to do a great job in getting everyone’s drink and meal order placed and filled very quickly. Red Top is a blip on the side of the road and can easily be passed by, but do yourself a favor and make a point to stop in for a great meal.

What a fantastic lady. Always happy and smiling. Will continue to stop in for good food and fantastic service

The food was great. We had hash browns, crispy bacon and a pulled pork omelet. Staff was very friendly. Glad we stopped. Looking forward to our next visit.

Magnificent hideaway Barbecue joint.. staff is local and friendly, hometown diner with excellent selections..Trump the Boss sandwich, is the best of the Beef world second to ribs.The pulled pork has my wife's loyalty and flavor, she don't order anything but..The place is small and Very popular during rush lunch and dinner times..

A real down home place to eat. Nothing fancy on the outside, but great cooking inside. I never order a hot dog in a restaurant, but right on the menu was Hebrew National Beef Hot Dogs & home made potato salad. Dennis got the brisket, chili, French fries and Cole slaw ( he didn’t need a knife for the brisket and great homemade coleslaw.,
