Dollar General

I love dollar general, but this one has an unusual staff. The store manager Amber is not very friendly and I don't feel welcome as a new customer to this location. I'm not saying Dollar general is not the place to go it is, but it may be worth your while to drive an extra 5 or 10 minutes to a different one where you can find a better staff and management I recommend Dollar general to anyone other than the emmitsburg location. Faithful, Dollar general customer ~Nathan

Kirby's Cafe

If you pull up to this little cafe at noon, you're going to find a packed parking lot. DO NOT, DO NOT let this deter you from stopping for a great lunch. This quaint cafe is bigger than you will think on the inside. Even with a full parking lot, we walked in and were seated immediately, NO waiting at all. We were met by our waitress, who quickly took care of us. She let us know the spicy fried cheese was back, and was one of the best appetizers they had, hence we had to try them. Having also read that Kirby's may "have the best burger within 100 miles," I was up to see what all of the rage was about. The spicy cheese curds were definitely home made, varying in sizes, perfectly seasoned, and when combined with Ranch, were delicious. Highly recommend them! As for the burgers...cooked nearly perfect. Extremely flavorful, and can tell the meat is locally produced, not store bought. Would highly recommend stopping in for a great meal at Kirby's! ~Josh
