I love their food! I enjoy the busy atmosphere, too. The old man could stop slamming the water glasses down and say 'hi' once in awhile, but I love him!

When I was at Dickinson in the 80s, "the Milton" was the first place I was taken to to eat outside of the chow hall. I fell in love with it.

Great Small Town Food:

If you are ever in my home town of Carlisle, PA, maybe you're here for one of many Car Shows we have, maybe you're just passing though, please do yourself a favor, stop by the Hamilton and get yourself some hochi-dogs & hochi-burgers, maybe some fires and top it off with a famous Hamilton Milk Shake! This place is great. Good food, good ...
Do yourself a favor. If you ever find yourself in Carlisle, get 2 hochi-dogs, gravy fries and a vanilla shake. Probably right around5 bucks and you'll be happy you did!!
The Hamilton is one of the best diners I have ever been to. Their burgers are excellent and they have some of the best prices and values in town. They have a large and diverse menu with reasonable prices. With it being so close to Dickinson College, it makes a great place for college kids to get good food at reasonable prices since most of them are on strict budgets for school.

You won't find a better hotchi-dog. We've purchased the sauce & taken it with us to friends' houses and everyone raves about it. It's a small place & close to the college, so it tends to be pretty busy, but it is worth the hassle while you wait.
