Locally grown produce, cozy country charm, and ice cream right off the road.
📍 Where it’s at
Sweny’s Godfrey Run Farm is located in Lake City, just a short drive west of Erie. The address for your GPS is 9000 West Lake Rd, Lake City, PA 16423. You’ll spot it along Route 5. There’s a big white sign outside, you can’t miss it!
Open hours are: Monday-Wednesday 10 a.m.-7 p.m., Thursday-Saturday 9 a.m.-7 p.m., and Sunday 9 a.m.-5 p.m., plenty of time to stop by after work or enjoy a summer morning or evening!
Sweny’s Godfrey Run is now under new ownership by the Sweny family, and they’ve brought fresh energy and exciting upgrades to this classic local spot. Inside, you’ll find a beautiful sign with a thoughtful tribute to the previous owner—a heartfelt touch that shows just how much this place means to the community. There’s easy parking, and the whole place feels like a little slice of countryside tradition.
🍓 What’s good
They also have a bar where you can currently purchase local wine, with craft beer and cider selections coming soon. They also plan to offer seasonal specialty drinks that highlight the season and fresh fruits they’re selling in store, making the menu just as local and fresh as the produce. What makes this bar extra special? You can order from a window if your sitting outside! What a cool, special touch that we’ve never seen at a place like this.
Sweny’s Godfrey Run is a special little market with big ambitions. Their grand opening was phenomenal, and we can’t wait to come back for one of their upcoming live music events. Be sure to follow them on social media!
From January through April, they also hope to make the venue available for private event rentals (timeline to be finalized). So if you stop by and love the place as much as we do, maybe you can host your next event here!
