Restaurant Sidney

Restaurant Sidney Sidney by Chef Neil Annis is located in the heart of East Berlin, between York and Gettysburg, on Route 234 in historic Adams County.
(400)

The casual yet sophisticated comfort of Sidney has been carefully cultivated from Chef/Owner Neil Annis’ decades of culinary expertise. After attending the Culinary Institute of America and being deemed “most likely to succeed” by his peers, Annis worked in numerous critically acclaimed restaurants throughout the United States and Europe. His restaurant experience includes positions at Aux Beaux C

hamps in Washington, D.C., and Les Célébrités and the four-star Bouley in New York City. Annis took a respite from the restaurant industry after being recruited as the corporate chef of research and development for Unilever. In this position, he helped to create and develop hundreds of branded products, including Ragu, Wishbone and Lawry’s. He re-entered the industry two years later as Chef de Cuisine at the opulent Lespinasse in New York City, earning the coveted four-star rating two months after opening. More critical acclaim followed when Annis, serving as Executive Chef, opened Compass on New York’s Upper West Side, described by the Zagat Guide in 2003 as the “Best New Restaurant in New York City.” The restaurant was also featured on the Today show and in Gourmet, Architectural Digest, and Food and Wine magazines. Annis left Compass in early 2004 and spent six months traveling and reassessing his life goals. Although he was offered high profile positions across the country, Annis decided to come home to his roots and open his own restaurant. Enchanted with Adams County, Pennsylvania’s country charm, in October 2004 he opened Sidney in East Berlin

We are closed today for our Grapes of Spain Wine Dinner. Since June 2014, our wine dinners have given Chef Neil and his culinary team the chance to step outside their norm and create inspired plates not found on our regular menu.

If you’ve ever wondered what these evenings are like, here’s a glimpse. We begin with fun craft cocktails and elegant hors d’oeuvres delivered to your table. Then Sarah offers a brief look at the featured region, sharing charming, cork‑worthy details about the grapes, the winemakers, the landscape, and the notable figures who once walked those vineyards. Each of the five pairings comes with a touch of history and a few delightful details that bring the wines to life.

We finish with a sweet course inspired by the season and the region, and a final toast among friends, family, and fellow wine lovers.

Today, we pause to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to protecting our freedoms will never be forgotten.
As we gather with family and friends, we hold deep gratitude for those who made the ultimate sacrifice so that we may live, work, and celebrate in peace. May we carry their memory with us—not just today, but every day.
With respect, remembrance, and heartfelt appreciation,
