Dear Friends and Patrons,

We opened What If Hershey 20 years ago. Our restaurant is family owned and operated, making it a genuine point of pride for the establishment. We also take pride in treating our guests and staff like family. What If is our second home and we love being the spot where the locals enjoy eating. Whether you are visiting Hershey with kids, looking for a romantic dinner with your love, or just looking to have a bite at our cozy bar with a good glass of wine, we want to be your host in Hershey!

Our menu features plenty of classic Mediterranean dishes. Our fish specials change daily and we have a slew of lovely pasta dishes as well. We do not limit ourselves to one single cuisine since we believe food should be fun, ever-evolving, and delicious. But our regular guests can tell you that we are known for our crab cakes, unique salads, prime cut steaks, homemade desserts, and the best happy hour in town! We also have a beautifully updated courtyard patio for those summer nights. And our private dining room is great for your events: rehearsal dinners, baby showers, bridal showers, corporate events, funerals, pharmaceuticals, and birthdays.

We look forward to meeting you!
Joanna and Mike
