Kauffman’s Bar‑B‑Que Restaurant – Bethel, PA

Small Bites Radio has been named Top Hospitality Shows on the Planet from 2020–2025, #Bluejeanfood.com named Top Philadelphia Best Philadelphia Lifestyle Blogs and Websites from 2021-2025, Best Philly Food Blogs and Websites 2023-25, Top Philly Food RSS Feeds 2024-2025, nominated by Metro Philly Newspaper 2022-25 Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment, and WINNER of Metro Philly Newspaper Best of Philadelphia Arts & Entertainment in 2023 and 2024.

Had a seriously crave-worthy meal at Kauffman’s Bar‑B‑Que Restaurant in Bethel, PA. I went all out with their juicy rotisserie-style chicken, crispy fried oysters, crab cake, and an order of fries, and it was a total flavor explosion. What sealed the deal was the all-you-can-eat salad bar with so many fresh veggies, breads, and house-made dressings to round out the meal, all at a very affordable price.

This place is a beloved Berks County tradition, family-run since 1979, with roots stretching back even further, and still serving that famous, slightly sweet-and-salty chicken that’s just perfect. The dining room got a modern facelift recently with a vintage farmhouse vibe with blue and stone accents, updated seating and yet it still feels like home. Plus, they’ve turned their setting into an event-worthy destination with mini‑golf, an ice cream stand, and even space for large gatherings.

Every meal comes cafeteria-style, so you load up your tray, grab your salad bar bowl, and choose from all those comforting dishes and is great for families. The friendly service, laid-back atmosphere, and that unbeatable value make this place a must-visit. If you’re looking for down-home comfort food with plenty of variety and charm, this is it. Your taste buds (and wallet) will definitely be thanking you.
