This is one of the most popular restaurants in Lancaster. They don't accept reservations so if you're here on a weekend expect a long wait. If you're able to get a table, try any of the award-winning cocktails and get a side of the horse fries. Staff is incredibly friendly and personable too.

Historic Churches
There are a number of historic churches that architecture fans might want to walk by. St. James, St. Mary's, St. John's, First Presbyterian, and First Reformed are a few examples.
My suggestion would be to start with the street murals and just keep a keen eye out for steeples as you're walking/driving around the city.
