Newsome's Restaurant

Newsome's is a family owned and family operated restaurant here in Northumberland county. Set your expectations for really great comfort food and sandwiches! They also cater for parties and do an amazing job. We have been to events they cater and the food is excellent and the displays are always appealing. This is not a fine dining venue it is for casual dining for families

What an amazing little restaurant! From the unique decor (extensive array of all things 'coca-cola'), to the vast menu and kind, efficient staff. The best part was that we had the honor and privilege of meeting and conversing with the 80 year-old original owner, who started the restaurant in 1987 with his late wife. What a memorable lunch! We arrived for an early lunch, so the place wasn't busy at all, but by the time we left, there was a steady flow of people grabbing to-go orders and the tables were filling up. The food itself was excellent! I had the grilled chicken and a "small" order of sweet potato fries. The "small" order of fries was HUGE! A full plate piled high with possibly the best SP fries I've ever had (even better than my home cooked ones!). The chicken was delicious! Not dry at all, and the tomato on the sandwich was a REAL tomato.... Ot one of those pink round slices you get at so many places! Hubs had the Reuben, a generous sized sandwich and potato salad (homemade, handed down recipe per the original owner)...he said all was delicious! The staff even made a special order cup of coffee for the hubs!This no-frills, retro-ish little fast-ish food joint quickly found its way into our hearts, and we look forward to many fun adventures that include stopping here for a nice, easy, non-pretentious meal in the future.Highly suggest going in a bit early, as you might just get lucky enough to meet the original owner and learn the lovely history of Newsome's!

My favorite fast food place and its family operated! Real good food fast!Everything they have on the menu is excellent. Eat outside in the summer, watch the Purple Martins on the side of the building, and enjoy the country life around you. Crops in the fields, and older farmhouses close by. Fun fact the owner is a huge Coke memorabilia collector. He has some of his collection inside the diner and outside is his locally famous "Coke" truck that he had made. You can't go wrong stopping by Newsomes!

Visited the first time for dinner. Food was straight from cans. I haven't had cold canned peas in years. Cafeteria style. Ordered food at the counter, picked up when number announced placed on cafeteria trays. Food served on styrofoam plates and plastic utensils. Make your own drinks, iced tea dispenser nearly empty. All condiments in packets. Food was so disappointing. We won't be back. I truly wish I could say something good about this place!

Newsome's is consistently good. I keep wanting to try other things on the menu, but their Ruben is excellent and so is their steak and cheese so I keep getting those.A sandwich place needs to get both of those right and Newsome's does.They stay open till 9, taking orders till 8:30 pm.They take justifiable pride in getting good steak for that big ole steak and cheese. It costs more but you get more. The menu says it is an 8 -inch sub, but it's gotta be 10 or more inches long.Their Ruben is just right, but would be better on different bread.The onion tanglers and sweet potato fries are only delicious.Newsome's is clean, well-organized, consistent, and professional with an efficient, personable staff.I get momentarily frustrated when I go there, because Newsome's has a challenge to "Eat the Farm" that costs $35 if you can't eat it all. The Farm consists of about 5 pounds of hairy-backed man food topped off with a 32 -ounce milk shake. I know I could have pulled it off back in my 20s, but not now, even though there are 75 pounds more of me.That's the frustrating part.Those who pull off the challenge get the meal free, a bumper sticker and their name forever memorialized on the Wall of Fame.You can count on Newsome's to do you right at a good price.

Got there at 6:45, and they were out of roast beef. Got hamburger steak, mashed potatoes and peas. ($11.50) Hamburger steak was okay, gravy & onions were good. Peas were bland. Wife got an egg salad sandwich, and sweet potato fries, and she thought is was okay. When we got there, there was an older lady waiting for her ice cream order, and the lady told the girl making the ice cream, "I wanted a cone in the ice cream cup", and the girl that was working told her, "that's not what you said!" Then another lady in front of us told the same worker, "I called earlier", and the worker responded, "sometimes I put people on hold, and I forget them".

Sandwich shop with lots of options on menu. I like their sweet potato fries too! Friendly staff.

First thing I want to say is that in full disclosure, this is my Son in Law and Daughters restaurant. That being said I do not nor will not give biased reviews, because I know people depend on these reviews to help them make decisions about their choice of food. The 5 stars is based on my lunch experience. This is not a fine dining facility nor do they claim to be. I highly recommend the steak and cheese. They can only be matched in Philly. I can usually eat a half of one, but because they are so good I sometimes attempt to eat a whole one, only to regret it. Every time I go in there between 11:30 an 1 they are super busy, but they are always quick to get the food out. Very friendly staff, great food, and quick service adds up to 5 stars.

Cute small town family restaurant in Burgess. They are not open everyday, but food and service are good. Love the interesting old time decorations. Very popular with locals. We have enjoyed our visits for the 2 years we have lived here.

I walked in waited at the counter for 15 minutes and no one ever acknowledged my presence. It was so disrespectful considering I heard great things about the food . Never went back and never will.
