Summary:
Visited 4 locations and spent about an hour at each with the last stop at an ice cream spot (shortest stop since we ate on the trolley). The tour owner/operator is the guide and shares interesting history sprinkled in with why she chooses each business. This trip definitely highlights some great food in Hershey in some unexpected locations. We had a lot of fun and left with full bellies!! At some stops you can purchase a drink 🍹 or their products, but bring a credit card as one location didn’t take cash. I highly recommend this food tour as a fun activity for adults!!!

Summary:
Eileen saw a need in Hershey and filled it! We are food tour junkies and this was one of the best...especially for only being in business for 6 months!
We took the Mid-day Magic Tour, and started at the Fresh Market, a locals farmers' market. Here we sampled food and beverages from Owl Hill Provisions, Midstate Distillery, MKT Tacos, S Clive Weaver, and Seasons. My favorite was the delectable meatball sample from Owl Hill Provisions, and the chef even shared his secret ingredient!
I'm not a bourbon drinker, but the taste of bourbon at Midstate Distillery went down smooooooth and warmed my throat! The smoked bologna and cheeses from S Clive Weaver were just the savory bites we needed to balance the sweet empanadas from MKT Tacos. Finally, I wouldn't have expected to sample olive oil, but sample it we did...at Seasons...and it was excellent! Who knew there were so many different flavors of olive oil?
Next, the trolley took us to nearby Hummelstown, where we continued our sugar high with Chocolates by Tina Marie and Cubby's Ice Cream. We expected nothing less in Hershey, PA!
Through it all, Eileen was attentive to our needs and offered delightful commentary and history about the areas we visited and passed through on our ride. That's what makes food tours so much fun...learning about an area while sampling food from local vendors. It's a great way to support and publicize the local economy. We highly recommend this food tour!
