The Core Kitchen at Atomic Dog Cidery

A very cool place to enjoy really good food & refreshing hard cider. Celebrated my Besty's birthday here. The atmosphere was nice also. We were there in between the lunch & dinner crowd & had the whole place to ourselves. The service was good, too.

Lots of unique choices. Wonderful hard cider. Family friendly dining. Only one little issue. I ordered their house wings and there are pretty much just your standard Buffalo hot wings. That aside everything else was great. Restaurant is very clean and service was great!

What a culinary Gem!! From Wood Fired Artisan Pizza’s to Gourmet Sandwiches and much more in between, Mela’s will delight any Taste bud! THEN there’s the handcrafted brewed Hard Ciders! Let’s just say…I loved all of them (definitely get a flight) I purchased A 15 variety pack! Service was nothing but courteous & Professional! Our server, Natalie, was outstanding! She was very knowledgeable of the menu & just a joy to converse with!! We had a lunch business meeting and it worked out perfectly! Quiet enough to carry on a conversation! Mela’s Kitchen /Jack’s Cider House is a

Great experience here for lunch. The staff were very professional and friendly and the food came out hot and quick! The pizza was good with a nice char on the bottom but the star was the lightly fried whole artichokes. A nice selection of ciders with plenty of dry options which we appreciated.

UPDATE#2: WOW. Visited for a sit down lunch today and it was phenomenal. 2 people shared half portion mela salad, artichoke app and a margherita pizza. We order at the end of the bar, receive a number and take any table we like. This restaurant is spacious with lots of natural light. It felt a bit chilly, if you tend to get cold, dress warmer. Self service water bar includes seltzer/still/cold options - super appreciated. The iced tea is fresh brewed with a clean, crisp flavor. Let's get to it. There were no burned layers of dough on the bottom of our pizza and it was honestly fantastic. The dough is a bit chewy and the sauce, cheese, crisp basil and olive oil are delightful toppings. I cannot wait to try all the pizzas at Mela. But let me say, the salad and appetizer were both executed with excellence. The salad and dressing are 100% perfect. The ratio of ingredients was perfect. Delicious and huge croutons, thin sliced apple, shaved parm, pickled onion and simple but wonderful dressing made the salad stand out - super fresh lettuce mix too. It feels like Mela doesn't cut on quality in any area and this is a significant plus for them. The fried artichoke hearts, oh the glory. Never have I ever... EXCELLENT EXECUTION! WONDERFUL FLAVOUR! This meal brought us to heaven and we cannot wait to return. Thank you for the prompted second chance.OC:We grabbed a margarita pizza to go and it smelled so delicious when we picked it up, we had to stop and eat it. Neopolitan is our fav pizza type. The dough was lovely, the sauce fresh and the basil topping a thoughtful touch. We wish it had more cheese, but that would not stop us from re-ordering. However the cook brought such a charcoal flavor that it overwhelmed the pizza. I am okay with some char, but it was ott. These pizzas cook so fast, not sure why they are blackening the bottoms, perhaps some people like it. Sent them a message to ask if it was intentional or not, but no response as of yet.UPDATE#1: Heard backfrom the GM who offered us to try again with a giftcard. They mentioned that the pizza should have some char. But not an overwhelming flavor. Will update after we are able to visit again.

Mel's Kitchen at Jack's Hard Cider is phenomenal! The staff were extremely courteous and helpful. The food was extraordinary! I had the Wagyu Burger - it was perfection. The baby potatoes were the best I have ever had. The chef was amazing. For a truly remarkable eating experience, go to Mela's Kitchen.My compliments to the owners and staff!

One of our top places to go for drinks and eats in Gettysburg. We also head here after a long work week to unwind. It is a great hang out place for friends and family.Mela is part of Jacks Hard Cider. You can actually see the brew tanks when you walk in. Besides cider and wine that is made by Jacks, they also have craft beers and mixed drinks. They change up their specialty mixed drink menus seasonally and call them some interesting names.For the food menu, they have the standby bar eats, but they also have great modern plates. Their brick oven pizzas (in photos) are artisan style with unique ingredients and just enough for 2. They also keep the menu seasonal with locally sourced foods which is great for the local economy. This is a foodie place for sure as we are never disappointed.Their staff is awesome and welcoming just like your family. Pricing is , but well with it. With food cost as they are now, it is well within the expected range. We usually run 100 for the two of us each trip. This include 2 drinks, an appetizer and dinner for each of us. I usually don't leave until my growler is filled with cider.

It is wonderful. Place to go to great atmosphere, delicious food, excellent customer service. And not only that, we were also there for the pink dog animal rescue fundraiser and bakesale. So not only did we eat delicious meals, we also had a tasty treat on the way out to help support such a worthy cause. Thanks again, will be back!
