I recently visited Café 1832, and while the food itself was just okay—not bad, but nothing particularly memorable—the overall experience was made much better by the service. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, which created a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Sometimes great service can make up for a meal that doesn’t quite hit the mark, and that was definitely the case here. Everyone I interacted with had a positive attitude and seemed happy to be there, which really added to the experience.
If you’re looking for a spot with kind people and good vibes, Café 1832 is worth a visit. I’d come back more for the people than the plate, but sometimes that’s just what you need.

Pleasant place to eat at. Good for a quick bite. Definitely causal spot. Great view of the trains.
Got the chicken sandwich, strawberry salad and smash burger.
Filling food, $5 to make things a meal (fries & drink). Clean and friendly staff.

Absolutely terrible experience in a place of excellence. My family has been coming to the amazing Strasburg railroad for years and we love it here. Today was the first time we ever tried the cafe. We ordered 5 items to go. We waited over a half hour WITH NO LINE AHEAD OF US and everything in our order was wrong. We also said it was to-go and they handed us a tray for eat-in. We reminded them it was to-go and they told us to box everything up ourselves. Wrong cheeses on sandwiches and missing sauces. I just wasted my time and $50. Don’t go here.

We visited this place after the train ride for a coffee. Ambience was so warmth and welcoming, and the staff were super friendly. I got seated right away. The waitress took care of me, and I ordered a chicken nuggets, sandwich, French fries and Coffee. I would totally recommend this place, and the quality of the food and service here was beyond expectation.
Also it’s pocket friendly and has outside patio seating to enjoy the serene atmosphere.

The food was good the first time I went in May. However, I went back there today after the 1pm train. Only to discover the kitchen was closed early. No where it said it would be closed before today. Unless I missed something.

Very clean. Staff was very pleasant. Trip on the RR was fun, cast of the Great Diamond Heist was excellent. Rode in the dining car- roast beef sandwich was outstanding. A fun outing for couples or family

First the good: convenient for those visiting the train station, the burger was good and the buns were excellent, the fries were better than I expected. Indoor and outdoor seating to watch the trains. The bad: it’s a tourist trap so prices are high. I paid $15 for a burger and fries. And they were good but not $15 good. The ugly; I asked for a cup of water because I didn’t like soda and the cashier charged me the full soda price. I again explained I just wanted water, she said the cup costs $2.50. I just wanted tap water. I’m a water guy, I order water all the time and always get free tap water except for Cafe 1832. I could even understand a quarter. Perhaps it was a new employee or maybe that is the policy but it shouldn’t cost $2.50 for a 12 oz cup of water. The food itself was better than expected, next time I’ll just bring my own water.

The food here is great! The smash burger is delicious and the fries are nice and crispy. It’s small, so both times we’ve eaten here we’ve sat on the front porch. It has tables that you can eat at or a high top ledge that gives you a nice few of the train coming and going. The children’s meal came with apple slices and fries, so my child was happy.

Came here for the train rides and the food was okay. Staffs and dine in area are pretty decent. A/C in summer for those hot days.
