Being from Central Jersey, I've gotten accustomed to the hustle and bustle of daily life. But when I head into the woods or the hills the piney in me comes out. I love small town America and down to earth people. Welcome to Shades of Green.
We were out in the hills of Pennsylvania and the family was hungry. We're sick of the standard chain restaurants and just wanted a local place to get lunch. We just stumbled upon this little gem.
Ok, so the parking is a little sketchy. But then again, this place is a local joint so I'm sure the locals are accustomed to it. Once you get inside it's like walking back in time. The clock literally slows down. This is the way America used to be, the way it was meant to be.
The food took a little longer then we expected, but we soon found out why. It appeared to be all freshly made. That's right, no frozen Bubba Burgers here. Real burgers on real buns. And no skimping on the fries here, we got a full old school serving. My son opted for pickle fries which were odd but actually pretty good! I got an S.O.G burger, which was fantastic. My only gripe was that it didn't come with lettuce and tomato, though, in hindsight, if I asked I'm sure it wouldnt have been a problem. The service was personal and friendly. We were made to feel right at home. And it was considerably less expensive then the mediocre fare found in Central NJ.
If you're even remotely close by here you need to stop in. Old school service with homemade quality leading to an amazing experience. Put the hustle and bustle behind you, find that inner piney, and get yourself a taste of what America was always meant to be. Get yourself a taste of Shades of Green.
