Been by here many times and wondered before finally stopping in. A top notch atmosphere but reasonably priced meals. I had the Turkey Bacon Chipotle sandwich which comes with a side of chips and a pickle, a cookie and an Americano. Some great choices on the menu and decent coffee. They also had other baked items and a Gelato Bar. Tons of fireplaces and great seating areas for group study, gatherings, celebrations or just hanging out. The chicken they do Thursday – Saturday smelled awesome from the street but I already had my mind set. I really enjoyed this place. Even has a fire pit with a big chair so you can watch the line at the Smorgasbord across the street.

I saw a friend’s review for this place and wanted to check it out.
We stopped in on a rainy September day for lunch. Due to it being hot yet rainy, we decided to sit outside in a covered area. The menu is very limited for food but we were happy with our order.
The building itself is gorgeous and has a lovely outside area to eat.

Great coffee! But even better atmosphere and sitting area! So fun and relaxed, loved all the outdoor seating options and it made us want to stay instead of rushing off. They have a fun little play area for small kids as well so if you want to grab a cup of coffee and let your kids play, they have something to do!

Fireside Cafe is wonderful. Looking for a chill night to chat with some friends this is a great gem. With indoor and outdoor seating, coffee, food, ice cream, live music nights, different events, mini playground, plants, Jesus, and a chance to experience the Keystone Custom Builders displays. Truly has a little bit of everything and if your looking for a custom Patios, etc. Check this place out. CAFE DRINKS are amazing!

My 2nd visit and it was a great experience. Had a very good light roast pourover the ” Paper Route” from Nostalgica Coffee roasters and was happy they had a single origin from Burundi also available. The girl who waited on me was extremely cheerful and nice as I took her advice on the pourover. My son had a great hot latte . The place is beautiful inside and out. One of the top Specialty coffee shops in Lancaster but definitely the nicest.
Prices were very good also

An excellent cafe with a beautiful indoor and outdoor seating area. I enjoyed the nice cushioned couch outside and the atmosphere inside while ordering. Their earthy tones and plant-life was a nice touch. The dirty chai was ok and their cold brew mojito was tasty. Their prices are average for a cafe and they have quick service

This is one of the neatest places in the area. I’m so glad they reopened, but I do miss the original sausage, egg, and cheddar crossiant with garlic aioli that I used to get. The sandwich was bigger, the sausage was a patty and not links, and the price was about $3 cheaper if I remember correctly. I can’t afford most of the new prices there anymore to go as often as I used to go, and you have to be strategic in how you order a drink, as well, or else it adds up quick (ex. mixing flavors/alternative milk). I also wish that they had more gluten-free options. Apart from that, it’s a pretty environment, and I appreciate that the coffee flavors are homemade and the beans they use are high-quality.
A lot of times, I get the sense that it’s a stressful environment for the workers, and it makes me wonder if it’s the people in charge are not setting a good example or being good teachers. It’s great that they have a reward system, but I’m not sure everyone knows how to use it, and they don’t tend to ask you for your number if placing an order in person. Hopefully, the kinks continue to get worked out, and this place becomes a true blessing for the area. I’d love for them to bring back their special events, and I appreciate that they stay open later than most coffee shops. Definitely go check them out if you’re from out of town. The decor inside and out, as well as patio design, is simply the best you’ll find in a coffee shop. It serves as a great place for a date or to do work or study.

Quaint establishment with cozy outdoor seating with a fireplace, but we ate inside this first visit. Really fast and friendly service and prices are very reasonable as we only spent $28 for two sandwiches, a coffee, and a soda. The BLT on sourdough was delicious, and everything was so fresh and filling. The other sandwich with ham and cheese and pesto was delightful, as well, but I preferred the BLT. Overall, a great first visit after driving by dozens of times over the past couple years, and I’ll be sure to come back again.

The Fireside Cafe is such an amazing place. Such cute comfy spaces to hang out and have breakfast and lunch. The panini sandwich I got was great and the couch outside to enjoy it made it even better.
