baby shower locations?

Starting to think about potential baby shower locations around the Mechanicsburg area, including Camp Hill, Harrisbugr, Hershey. Anyone have any recommendations? We don't want to do a hotel ballroom but would love something unique like a bed-and-breakfast or a cute restaurant. Baby isn't due until September, so likely the shower will be in the summer, which makes outdoor a possibility. Would love your ideas!

Thanks!
Lauren

    Cafe Magnolia, JoJo's Pizza (I've never been there but people have posted pics and they have a really cute exposed brick wall in their private upstairs room)

    My bridal shower was at Events, Etc. in Hershey - it's across the street from the Hershey Pantry and is their catering side of things.  The space is really lovely and the food (obviously, if you've ever had a meal at the Hershey Pantry!) is fantastic.

    As soon as I read your post, I immediately thought of the same place as the previous poster....Events, Etc. in Hershey.  I have attended and thrown both bridal and baby showers both big and small there and have had great experiences every single time.  The space is large enough for a large group, but can be divided into a smaller space for a smaller group.  The food is fantastic and the staff was wonderful to work with.  Good luck with the planning.

    My MIL threw me a shower at The Hershey Pantry.  Events Etc was already booked that day so she had it on a Sunday around 2pm (after the Pantry closed for the day).  There was plenty of room for everyone (approx 30-35 people I believe) and the food was great!!  We are having my SIL's shower at What If in Hershey in June

    Thank you all! We're looking at What If, Hershey Pantry/Events Etc and Visaggio's as our top spots.

     Is there any etiquette for whether baby shower's are supposed to be Saturday or Sunday? We had my bridal shower on a Saturday and a few people commented that we were "supposed" to have it on a Sunday because some people have to work on Saturdays??

    No ettiquette that I'm aware of. I think it's all a matter of personal preference. I would have preferred my showers on a Saturday because that would have given me Sunday to organize our gifts. My family prefers Sunday because that gives them Saturday to cook (my shower was at my parents' house.)
