“ I’ve traveled all over the untied states and I must have dined in over 100 diners, searching for that perfect breakfast. After years of travel and reviewing breakfast spots, I found my heart restaurant. A place I know I’ll think about quite often through my lifetime until I’m able to come back once again. The crooked hen is a quiet little establishment right in the heart of the hills of Pennsylvania. I love them so much my first try, I came back a second day in a row. My firet try, I ordered the lox on the NY bagel. You get a GIANT portion of smoked salmon, kapers, cream cheese and fresh tomatoes. Absolutely decadent. The salmon was perfectly smoked and still fresh, which is hard to achieve considering the cost of this ingredient. The crooked hen nailed it. The lox and bagel were better than anything I’ve ever had in New York and honestly, New York could learn a lesson on portion from this place! My second try, I got the crab cake eggs Benedict with hash browns covered in cheese, peppers and onions. WOWZA! The immense burst of flavor out of that first bite of crab cake blew my mind. Incredibly fresh, not too fishy and light! The HOUSE MADE hollandaise sauce was thick yet creamy and perfectly balanced. Most places serve “gritty” hollandaise sauce because it’s been over cooked, set in a heat tray for too long or over heated during the cooking process. The poached eggs were actually poached too! Which is quite impressive because most restaurants choose to fry eggs for eggs Benedict because poaching an egg is hard to perfect. The crooked hen nailed that too!!! Considering eggs Benedict is what I always obsess with over during my travels! I’ll be DREAMING of those decedent crab cakes for the rest of my life! The hash browns were also perfectly crisped and the peppers they layed on top were perfectly cooked and perfectly sweet to off set the savory. Again, I’ll be dreaming about this dish for the rest of my life!! In to the staff and establishment: PERFECT. The facility is incredibly clean and the staff is so clearly well taken care of by management as the waitress I got two days in a row was a soft spoken and polite young lady. The crooked hen is so incredibly lucky to have this young lady!!! She was quick to serve, she was quick to make sure I was taken care of during my entire dining experience. (both days). I plan to come back over the summer on a personal trip. That’s how good this place is. No wonder they’ve been voted best lunch. (Even though I got breakfast items during lunch, there’s a good reason for that too! - DELICIOUS!) Bravo, crooked hen. Bravo. ”

“ Went there for lunch, and it was delicious. Cute little place with great service. I had the Farmhouse Omelet with assorted meats, eggs, and cheese. It was really good and the hashbrowns and toast were a great compliment to the dish. The waffle was phenomenal!! Limited menu but great choices. It was average priced for the quality of what you got. There were a few things I really wanted to try, so I will definitely be back. ”

“ I’m not from the area, and a friend recommended this spot. I’ll admit, I was hesitant at first since I’m very picky about my food and dining experiences. But let me tell you, this place blew me away from the moment I walked in until the moment I left. The staff was incredibly welcoming and sweet throughout the entire visit. Our waitress, in particular, was amazing. She recommended some dishes, and wow, she knew what she was talking about. Every bite was perfection. The chicken and waffles were absolutely amazing. Perfectly crispy and flavorful and the breakfast burrito was just as great, packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot for brunch. Honestly, they need to put one of these near Philly because I’d probably be there every weekend. If you’re in the area, don’t hesitate, this place is a must visit! ”

“ My husband and I visited Crooked Hen for the first time since they opened. We very much enjoyed the food. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles and I had the Homestead Benedict which is eggs Benedict but with sausage and cream chipped beef. It was all my favorite breakfast items in one. Loved it. They were pretty steady with business which was expected for being a Sunday brunch time. Prices were fair in our opinion. This is not a diner so def does not compare to diner prices. Oh my husband also had a vanilla milkshake which he all but finished before the food came out so you could say he liked it. ”

“ We just went in for the first time because we heard about their gluten free waffles, pancakes, and French toast. The place was very nice and decorated well, we were welcomed immediately with warm welcomes. We sat down and ordered pancake tacos and I got a gluten free banana chocolate chip pancake. We also got bacon and potatoes with cheese on them. The food was fantastic, best coffee and pancakes I’ve ever had since going gluten free. Our waitress was also amazing. Her name was Stacey, and she was funny and liked to talk with us. She gave us good recommendations to make the whole experience amazing. We will defiantly come back and hopefully when my boyfriend and I aren’t crippling college students in debt, we will become regulars because that was the best breakfast I’ve ever had anywhere ”

“ Delicious food and a great staff. What else could ask for. The red pepper hollandaise sauce on the eggs Benedict was fantastic. Like to try the Chipotle hollandaise sauce next time. ”

“ Such a great atmosphere and friendly vibes. Really great food, I definitely recommend. There was another reviewer on here recommending the breakfast burrito and I can attest to that, it was hands down the best thing on the menu. ”

“ 2nd updated review* if you don't get the breakfast burrito you are missing out. I crave this thing weekly. Updated review * On the second visit, it was still just as delicious, and I got pictures this time! 1st review*My sister and I just visited for a late breakfast. It was our first time visiting but will not be our last! The staff were friendly. Our server never gave me the opportunity to ask for anything, she was always one step ahead and very attentive. I had the breakfast burrito, which was very delicious and my sister had a breakfast sandwich on one of their fresh croissants. I usually take pictures for my reviews but once the food came, I forgot all about pictures. Everything looked so good and it was! ”
