Cooksburg Cafe

Cooksburg Cafe is a conveniently located place to grab a quick lunch while enjoying the river and the great PA outdoors. They have hamburgers, wraps , sandwiches and other lunchtime favorites. They also serve a large selection of Hershey Ice-cream. There is ample seating - covered and under the trees - to enjoy your food. The staff is friendly and service is fast. I highly recommend Cooksburg Cafe.

A true gem in the forest. A beautiful view of the river, really good food ( I recommend the steak wrap), great ice cream and a huge variety to choose from as well as sundaes and shakes. The service is incredible, the sweetest people are at the window to take your order and they always hustle. The place is always busy but you get ice cream in a minute or less and food super fast. Nice seating options and it’s right next to the canoe place and a love gift shop. It’s a destination for sure.

Talk about a perfect spot, right by the river.
Tons of food on the menu including a huge list of Hersheys ice cream. Service was great and prompt and seating was nice whether you wanted to sit on the bench and watch the river or sit under the roof provided. Would happily return if im in the area.

Absolutely have to stop here when you're at Cook Forest. Amazing ice cream! We've been going to Cook Forest every summer for the past 15 years, and we go every night for ice cream when we're there. I highly recommend the Cappucino Crunch and Deep Dish Apple! The fries are also amazing! Plenty of seating outside either under the roof or under the stars. One of my favorite places!

It is a out door window pick-up in Cook forest, but burger and fries and ice cream shake were great ,even listed the gluten-free ice creams, yeah !

Best fish sandwich 🥪 ice cream is awesome so are the fries. When you spend a day on the river in the water and you are hungry so are the kids this place has all you will want.

Always a great stop on the river for a quick bite and some icecream!

This is always a favorite stop after spending time at the river. The ice cream selection is tremendous. Be warned a double scoop is HUGE!

We have been camping in Cook Forest for years. Our entire family loves the cafe.(22this year) We have ice cream once or twice a day. Service is out of this world. The staff are always patient with customers while they decide on their food/flavor of ice cream. They are always polite and thankful for their customers. Thank you for your dedication and hard work!

Love this place. My Mom always loved the moosetracks ice cream. this is right near the Clarion River, good ice cream with nice proportions (never had the hot food), the location would make you feel like you're in the movie "The Great Outdoors" with John Candy.

Great food and ice cream. Great staff. Busy place but the line moves fast.

incredibly friendly staff. the young girl with the piercing nlue eyes was incredibly personable and a great upseller :)
the milkshake and fried green beans were delish- and you can walk across the street to the water's edge

Didn't get anything in food . Fantastic gift shop on sight . Can rent cabins within 5 mile radius .
Looks like ice cream a hit at the cafe . Small menu . Burgers fries , hot dogs and wraps .

I got the banana foster ice cream and the Cinnabon flavor and it was some of the best ice cream I have ever had. You get your money's worth too! If the line is long, don't worry its well worth the wait.

Great place to stop for a snack or a full lunch. Nice out door experience with the nearby beautiful winding river.

Good food. Perfect lunch for after our kayak trip. Nice servings for ice cream.

Great ice cream! The food is basic but it is served nice and hot! Fries are fresh cut, try them with vinegar. Chicken tenders are crispy and filling. Ice cream is soooo good. Chocolate raspberry truffle is the bomb! And if you cross the street you can eat with a lovely view of the river!

This place is alot of fun for locals and tourists! I love eating along the River. Prices are not bad at all! Kids will love it.

Ice cream was great (Hershey's always is), and the service was quick given the continuous line of people.

Great friendlly staff. Lot's of great choices for lunch or just to get ice cream. Definitely get your money's worth.
