This was our first visit. We stopped in while in the area on a Saturday around 1:00. The food was excellent. Portions were large, we both ended up with leftovers. There was a great selection of menu items to order from, for both drinks and food. There was also plenty of seating available. We didnt have an issue finding parking.
Great beer and decent food. We went on trivia night without knowing so it was kinda loud but totally understandable. If we didn’t walk in half way through the game, we would have joined!
Loved the food! Loved the service! Chef Mike understands how to pair flavors. While it might all seem like just a place for burgers, tacos, wings, and cheesesteaks, the flavors were awesome, alot of homemade items, and just plain good. It was hard to choose from their wide selection, but our AMAZING server, Faith, put us on the right path. She was so friendly and welcoming, and treated us so well. This place is now on our rotation and we will be returning. We look forward to our next visit.
Great experience hanging out at the bar. I like the open-airiness of the place. Nachos & shrimp po boy were very good
Update: We went back again. It's still super good. We got an order of wings this time along with our pizzas. They were also really good. You just can't go wrong with this place!!! It's one of my top 3 restaurants! I can't say enough good stuff about this place! It was our second good experience. This time, We arrived right at 4:00 when they opened. We were the only people there. Armand waited on us. He informed us the order yourself kiosk was gone ( which was the only thing I didn't like the previous time). I told him im a coors light girl. He gave me a sample of 2 beers he thought I might like. The grape shandy was really, really good. Then he suggested the pickle pizza. IT WAS SLAMMIN! I had half regular and half the dirty Richard ( you will understand when you read the menu). BOTH sides were my favorite. My husband got the notorious P.I.G. also slammin. The cook Lenny really takes his time to make it delicious, and you can tell he really cares about the quality of the food he makes. He came over to ask us how it was. Super solid place. If you haven't gone yet, stop reading this and GO!!!
Pretty chill atmosphere, greenhouse section is unique. We sat at the bar. Employees were pleasant. We ordered two APP’s and both were good. Beer from Funk was good.
One of the few bars you can still smoke inside. The staff was friendly and extremely attentive. She was keeping an eye on my drink and and emptying out my ashtray when I got too full. I didn't even have to ask. I came in to have a couple beers. I guess something to eat got a steak and cheese sandwich with mushrooms, onions, pickled peppers and it was awesome. Huge portion and it came with chips and it was perfect. Couldn't have asked for anything better. I'll definitely be stopping here again next time I come through town.
Wallet friendly, great food, cooked in front of you, while you wait with colorful locals. Bartenders are busy, but not too busy to treat you as a local. Haven't checked out hotel, but if it's like the restaurant, I'm confident that it is good as well.
Easygoing standby featuring pub grub & an extensive craft beer selection in bottles & on tap.
Picked this place out randomly on a short visit. Amazing service and genuinely friendly vibes from the staff. Good grub and an even better beer selection for this IPA snob. A perfect neighborhood stop and the music was not overly loud (so many pubs get this wrong). If we ever find ourselves in Allentown again, this place will be at the top of the list.
I was passing through town on the way to the east coast and picked this place randomly off of maps. and boy am I glad that I did. their beer selection is top Notch, as is their food. The place is a bar that serves pizza and burgers with a lot of TV screens with sports playing. there's a bouncer at the door, and the environment as you can see by the video is pretty laid back. I ordered the tavern burger and a delirium tremens pint, and both were super fresh and good. The house salad in particular was phenomenally well done. My hat's off to you tavern on Liberty, you guys absolutely freaking crushed it. ps boy am I glad I didn't go to Burger King
I was going to put money in a machine to play and stoppped me bc a drunk man was playing and didn’t notice that he was about to win 500$ and when i went to go put money in the machine i was denied and said i would get kicked out for it bc the guy was drunk and didn’t notice the he was about to ein 500$ so i got denied the 500$ from the owner and he said he would kick me out bc of it
Cheats customers out of winning on the gaming machines. When a patron has been sitting there and not winning and leaves, then another patron sits down to start to put money in the machine, he comes along and says something about and says they are wrong for looking at the next window of the machine when he himself has told patrons how to win on the machines.
The bar tender was very fast and accurate. I apologize I don't remember his name but I'm sure he will remember me because of my order 😂. I became a fat butt when I left there 8 dozen clams and a order of honey BBQ chicken wings with a drink of Coca-Cola. I highly recommend this place if you're hungry very reasonable prices and delicious food you won't be disappointed!! Sorry for not getting a pic of the chicken I was way too hungry 🤣😂.
The fried taco is a MUST try! Chicken tortilla soup was soooo good and cheese fries yummy! Everyone craves on the clams here but I do not like clams so hard for me to review. They do have smoking throughout the building. Must order at bar and then they deliver back to your table. They also have gambling machines in the back and patrons were hitting big! They also have amazing cheap specials everyday of the week!
Bar & grill offering a diverse American menu in a relaxed setting with sports-centric decor.
We love the friendly atmosphere that hosts a hip yet unpretentious crowd. The servers are delightful, and you will find yourself feeling welcome when you arrive and revived when you leave. Enjoy!
Fun evening at historic Ringers Roost listening and dancing to Brake For Turtles. Great repertoire of 60s-70's hits with a few more contemporary songs mixed in. Didn't eat this time, though their food is great too. A Guinness is a Guinness. The Great Allentown Fair was raging across Liberty Street. Fun night outdoors, under the canopy.
The beers were excellent. Full bodied, just the right amount of hops and smooth finish. The food is made fresh to order. The chef was great our wings were perfectly made and there sauces are delicious. The staff is great welcoming and friendly. The brewery has a great vibe welcoming, friendly. They have outdoor seating areas with picnic style tables. Great brewery well worth the visit.
We had reservations and were seated promptly. Our waitress was very nice, but definitely stretches thin as there didn’t seem to be anyone else taking orders. Wr ordered beer, which were served to us in the can. Ok whatever, but then our other friends literally had to go up to the bar to grab their drinks which were sitting there for way too long. We got our food. Pizza was good until I bit down on something hard…it was plastic! Got the Diablo wings…not hot. Chicken cooked perfect but barely any sauce on them and the skin was not crispy. Atmosphere felt more like a college bar hang out than a restaurant. Maybe I’d go back for a drink, but based on service alone, probably not.
Spacious bar & eatery offering American pub fare, with game-day drinks & wings deals.
A group of 3 of us went on a Friday (around 4:30-5:00pm). It wasn't crowded but the crowd started to build as we were finishing up. We ordered a pretzel bite appetizer, BLT wrap, buffalo chicken sandwich, voodoo Mac balls, chicken Parm and fried funnel cake Oreos for dessert. Everything tasted fantastic. The pretzel bite appetizer was a bit on the small side (about 5 or 6 pretzel bites). The mustard dipping sauce it came with was really tasty though. We liked the voodoo Mac balls so much we ordered a second round of them. They had a lil bit of spice but nothing crazy. Mostly just delicious cheese. The buffalo chicken sandwich was a good sized filet. The chicken Parmesan dinner was also a good size. Very crisp, which I love.
This is a well reviewed local restaurant with a sports bar flare. It claims to have PA's best fried mozzarella. Although I can vouch for such glorious designation, it was never the less tasty. The waiters are very friendly, perhaps too much. One of our waiters had an animated conversation with the table next door for over ten minutes, ignoring other tasks. The amount of food is incredible and well prepared. Both my wife and I couldn't finish what was given. For the price you pay, you get a lot of food!
A menu of hearty comfort food classics served in a relaxed sports bar & restaurant.
If you want a great local dive bar experience with good food this is the place. Very friendly staff and attentive. Reasonable prices and portions. Highly recommend
Stahley's Cellarette is a family owned bar & grill on the east side of Allentown. I've been coming here for over twenty years and never had a bad experience. The menu consists of a lot of bar food, but they also have a wide variety of dinner entrees. You can find steak, seafood, Italian, and even Mexican cuisine on their menu. I come here for the steamed clams, wings, and cheesesteaks. Always good. Service is good to great depending on who takes care of you.
Linked to a regional chain, this lively sports bar plies patrons with drink deals & American grub.
Being from out of the area, PJ’s was recommended by a former local resident knowing we would be in the area for work. It did not disappoint! Service was fast and professional. Haley made sure our food was as ordered and checked on us without nagging. She did a terrific job! We sat outside. It was clean and comfortable. We were able to talk without loud noise from the road. I will certainly return when I’m back in the area.
This PJ Whelihan is not like other PJ Whelihan. It was warm and cozy. The food was great and service was wonderful. Great experience altogether. 😊 Must try Mango Habanero sauce for wings.
Great place for a night out. Excellent cocktails, great piano music with top 40 songs mostly from the 70's-90's. It can get pretty busy, so make a reservation. There was a steady flow of people all night. My wife and I had a great time, there's nothing else like the piano bar in the lehigh valley. The Pianist Tom, the owner Jill, and the manager all stopped by our table to chat and introduce themselves.
We loved our perfectly glam nite at 1812 especially the Charcuterie, Caesar Salad, Devine Cocktails and deserts. Music provided by GT3 made this a super sweet treat! Bring friends-great experience.
Cheap drinks and interesting regulars. Food was also cheap but I didn’t try any. Only $2.75 for a Miller Lite draft as of Dec 2024.
We ate a California bacon cheeseburger with mushrooms and French fries. Very good, delicious, great flavors... Good service
Laid-back alehouse & grill offering chicken wings with a variety of sauces plus other casual eats.
PJ's at the Walbert offers a fantastic atmosphere. The staff is always friendly and attentive, making every visit enjoyable for my family. Sipping orange crushes on the patio on a beautiful day is the perfect way to relax. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone!
Seemed like there was only one bartender/waitress working but she was friendly and attentive and we didn’t have to wait for service at all. The food came out quickly and really hit the spot after camping in the poconos for a couple days. Really appreciate the beyond burger option for vegan/vegetarian. Will definitely come back.
Vibrant bar with pub grub & an array of brews, plus live music, shuffleboard & other entertainment.
Usual bar scene…with chill vibes, old school video games, wide variety of music, frendily staff, great food, drinks done right at a fair price.
My wife and I love the casualness of this vast place. Very large bar and game room/ large party room. Mike was TREMENDOUS! He made sure our family was taken care of. A great place to go to be yourselves. It's a GREAT neighborhood bar!
Pub plates served in lively surrounds with a wraparound bar, beer on tap & outdoor seating.
First time visit. Nice sports bar restaurant. Lots of TV are bar area. Lots of seating plus some outside seating. Food was delicious. Server was very nice. Definitely would return again
I’m traveling through and I have such a wonderful experience here! Not only was the food tasty, made with good ingredients, but I have not gotten this much food for such a reasonable price in probably 5 to 8 years. I’m every single one of the servers was absolutely great! I would highly recommend this place to anyone
9.29.25: (EAGLES vs. TAMPA) Jamie and Kaitlyn were absolutely fantastic! My guy and I got here at about 12noon. Jaiw spoke to me and really made sure I felt welcomed and taken care of. (Both my guy and I). When Kaitlyn got there she swooped right in to help and worked hand in hand with Jamie to take care of EVERYONE! From drinks, food, customer service and humanism, they covered it all! They are both sweet women and take their jobs seriously. Wonderful example of great service and partnership. Job well done! ❤️
Jordan gave the best service! He gave good food recommendations & made the BEST cocktails. Sports and Social has such a nice patio to sit at outside especially during this warm weather! Will be back!! & they did a Love Island watch party which was so cute
Greg’s West End Saloon is like a time capsule of cool collectibles, friendly faces, and food worth crying over. The bartenders are sweet, the regulars are hilarious, and the mozzarella sticks have a cheese pull so dramatic it deserves an Oscar. The chicken tacos? So good I almost went back to shed happy tears in front of the chef. Family vibes, great drinks, and unforgettable memories. This place is a hidden gem in Allentown
Packed on the weekend .Sometimes you won't find a seat they do have some outside sitting available. Takes a while to get a drink sometimes. Some bartender are way better than others I wouldn't recommend a mixed drink. Just beer or shots or simple drinks
A really nice spot to drink & eat!
Nice and cozy spot. Great wings. Drinks nice and cold. Really nice bartender M.
I must say this spot is missed! If only I had the opportunity to manage this place, no way such a treasure of Queen City would have gone under! Is this place for sale? Does it come with a liquor license? LMK! I’d love to turn this around💯🤷🏽♀️❤️
Dj Holic was on point tonight with the music & the vibez was really chill. Great service from the bartenders. I’ll definitely be back!
Good prices and a good vibe nice place a even nicers peoples around
Nice chill spot to drink listen to music play pool with your friends have a good time. Do watch for the people coming in because there always something going on there ..but good spot to hang with friends and family .(no kids )
Family-friendly chain outpost pairs familiar pub fare with an extensive list of house brews.
The food was good some of our party got the 13.99 special that came with dessert it was a cookie with ice cream that came out warm and was really good. The portion size on these were small (lunch size) a little disappointed. We also ordered the full size entrees they were good with a better portion size. The waiter was great! Price was slightly high to average. Staff is attentive the manager was checking on tables. Overall a good experience.
While working in Allentown, PA this week, my coworkers and I returned to one of our favorite spots we always make a point to visit when we're in town. As usual, the restaurant was busy, but the hostesses were friendly and seated us right away, which was a nice start to the evening. The menu here is huge - honestly, you could probably come every day for a month and still have new dishes to try. The drink menu is just as impressive, with a great selection of options, including beers they brew in-house. The space has a lively atmosphere with a bar area, high-top seating, and regular tables, so there's something for everyone depending on the vibe you're looking for. Our server was fantastic -- friendly, attentive, and quick to help with anything we needed or had questions about. I decided on the slow-roasted wings with their newly featured honey hot sauce, along with a side of fries. The wings were top-tier - flavorful, tender, and cooked perfectly. The honey hot sauce added a great balance of sweet and heat. Unfortunately, the fries were cold by the time they reached the table. I didn't mention it to the staff since I figured it might have been due to how busy the restaurant was tonight. That's really the only reason for the 4-star rating instead of 5. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town -- there are plenty of sandwiches, tacos, and other options I can't wait to try!
Casual sports-pub chain with basics from bar snacks to steaks & a large selection of tap beers.
I really enjoyed my stay here. The food was good and the customer service was great. The only thing i want them to change is the menu. It’s so small and I wish they had more to choose from. I got a grilled chicken BLT sandwich with fries and it was 10/10 🤤
Chrissy was my bartender, and she’d in second place as my favorite. She surprised me as I asked with the kind of drink I like, IT WAS DELICIOUS!! The good was absolutely awesome, it all tastes so good, I’m so happy that I went. The service, and the manager were amazing, it was a perfect night after being on the road for 3 weeks. Thank you so much to such a really nice restaurant.
If you haven’t tried Tipsy’s Bar & Lounge, you’re missing out! Fast, friendly service and awesome food in a great atmosphere. Whether you want to enjoy great music, catch the game on one of their many TVs, or sit down for a delicious dinner , Tipsy’s is the spot! Come alone, with friends, or bring the whole family. You won’t be disappointed!
Ordered takeout so can't speak to service and atmosphere. Food was edible but disappointing. Some of the chicken fingers were pounded too flat and overcooked- good fry and breading, but kinda tough. The steak quesadilla was probably the worst I've ever had: two bites of cheese steak steak per piece, some of it gristly, and no lettuce or tomatoes to be found.
First time, Oct, 6, Sat. loved it. All of women are gorgeous, drinks are reasonable, food is great, had the wings, awesome.Open late on Saturday night.Place is also upscale and comfortable. Lots of seating. The women were very nice. Shout out to the women I interacted with, Lin, Passion, Destiny, as also the nite time bartender too,and most of all Gabriella, loved her dance routine. Plus her time of sitting with me. I would definitely recommend this place. I only hope I can go back again one day, will definitely miss this place.
stop by from being out of town and boy let me tell you very great experience. Davina gave me that at home feel, love and Extremely comfortable feeling. Aside from her phenomenal looks and beautiful hair, she herself is an amazing woman I gotta get extra cheesy. Definitely will be back. Cadre definitely knows what to do when hiring a beautiful team.
The place is actually inside of a Whole Foods market.. They did serve good craft beer and the service was excellent, I was not expecting to be looking at people doing their shopping after a long day of work.
I would say this is a great place but I went on 2 separate occasions in the same week and the bartender (Helen) is definitely not a personable bartender. It seems she has her own crowd of people she likes and if you're not in that crowd, your service is horrible along with the attitude you get from her. That really needs to be checked and addressed!
Upbeat dance spot serving drinks also features karaoke nights, drag shows & underage events.
Love. Love. Love. Super fun and everyone is so friendly. The manager is the best and always greeting people and make sure they are save and having fun. Drinks are always good and bartenders are fast and attentive. Rick and Mike are the best when it comes to security very respectful and there when you need them. Overall the best place to spend the night out!
I am SO THANKFUL this place exists!!! I love grabbing a drink, hitting the dance floor, and watching the incredible Drag Queens put on amazing performances. More than anything, I love seeing the variety of people that come here. It feels like home seeing people dance the night away smiling, laughing and being themselves. Since it has switched to new management, there have been a lot of positive changes with the promise of more to come. This place has my full support for a lot of reasons, but knowing how much history this LGBTQ+ bar/nightclub holds, it makes me love it even more. I’m ecstatic to know those wanting a safe place to “come out/be out” have that in Vogue. With a little TLC and a lot of community support, it will thrive. We are all flawed yet deserve to be loved and cared for and celebrated. The same goes for this place. Don’t let previous negative reviews deter you from checking it out and missing out on all the beautiful queerness!! Plus, there are new events every weekend so there’s something for everyone to enjoy! Let’s dance! 🏳️🌈🫶🏽
Restaurant & brewery offering beers & hearty pub grub in an airy, industrial space.
We are beyond grateful to Dominic at Fegley’s for making our wedding day absolutely magical! From the moment we started planning, Dominic was professional, organized, and incredibly kind. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, always going the extra mile to make sure every detail was just right. On the big day, everything flowed seamlessly — from the beautiful setup to the delicious food and drinks. Our guests kept raving about the service and how amazing everything was. Dominic truly brought our vision to life and made sure we could relax and enjoy every moment. If you’re planning a wedding, we highly recommend Dominic and the team at Fegley’s. Working with them was one of the best decisions we made!
I recently hosted my daughter’s graduation celebration at this venue, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The staff went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Dominic was our main point of contact and he was extremely attentive and kind, making everyone feel welcome. The food was also delicious and presented beautifully. From start to finish the team catered to our every need, allowing me to truly enjoy my daughter’s celebration without any stress. I highly recommend this venue for any special occasion! Unfortunately I don’t have pictures of the tables but they were set up beautifully and the details matched the party theme perfectly. They also had a sign upon entering the building to tell guests where to go and they even added flowers to match the theme of the party! Again I am so grateful for the amazing management and team, I will definitely be returning in the future to host future events !
Casual bar & grill serving wings, burgers & sandwiches along with a variety of beers on tap.
We were having a great time as we always have. Around 8:30 we were having a second round of drinks and talking with Individual's at the table adjacent to us when this tall overweight guy walks to our section, gives us a nasty look, throws all of his bags down and storms away. We went back to talking and enjoying ourselves when this person comes back with equipment and begins to make a loud growling noise and staring in our direction. The table next to us asked him if he was doing the Karaoke and he looked at us and said aggressively "I'm supposed to, but I guess I won't now!" We instantly felt uncomfortable and I got the attention of the bartender to order the last round. I asked her if there was an issue with the table that we were sitting at and the big guy who was here to do karaoke and she explained that this was where he usually sets up. We apologized and explained there was no reserved sign and that the guy was being very aggressive and had not said anything to us about needing the table/space. She said that he is a jerk like that and laughed it off. I was scared and angry, so we got up and ended our night. It was not handled respectfully or correctly. One of the reasons I frequent this place over the years is because of their (claimed) Intolerance for behaviors like that, but nothing was done. We had planned to have 6 more people meet us and we ended up cancelling and leaving. I will never return!
Old School pub with The greatest food. I'm an after work guy few beers and roll out.. Fascinating Bob Volpe is the quiet gentleman sitting at the side of the bar.. He is a bit of a local legend. He has more experience and knowledge of life than you can ever think possible. Bob doesn't talk to many people If you're privileged enough to get to know him. Mind-blowing what this gentleman has accomplished and what real life stories you will hear. Jamie is his daughter in-law who runs the day to day. Can't ask for a sweeter girl with a crazy sense of humor and pretty as witty. The food Is Dynamite Not an average bar. Local hangout. Yet Mr Volpe should franchise That great of an establishment.. Should you walk in cruise around this sports bar look at the pictures Legends made this legacy.
High-energy haunt attached to a bowling alley for dancing to live music, TV sports & karaoke nights.
I didn't try the food or drinks but the bar was stocked and the menu seemed good and all the food had great prices. Went for the line dancing and it was so much fun. Its all really old white people but everyone was so nice and the energy was great! We'll surely return. Oh and a bottle of Yuengling was $4.
Great staff! Great food! I have only been on Wednesdays when they host line dancing but that is fun for all. Kind of a laid-back somewhat dive bar feel.
So the staff was nice the food to me was horrible and overpriced. Yes they do have good drink specials. If you're still trying to eat healthy there are no good vegetables you must have just ordered doordash
Food is delicious! The Lamb platter was bomb! Our server Carmen was very nice! And had great suggestions on drinks and what food I should order. I will be back!
Compact, unassuming watering hole offering familiar bar fare as well as karaoke nights.
Wings are the best . This place is always open and staff creates great atmosphere.
I'm mouth wash is stronger than the $9 Red Death I was served. Sad.
Dj gee Menace keeps the tunes spinning that's my dj bro 💯 🙌🏿 my fam love the staff there they treat me like family always
I'm a cracker and felt very welcomed by the black community. Even when my girlfriend was dancing a little off beat we didn't get any looks. My gf was even wearing a floral pattern shirt looking like she just came out of a PTA meeting. Security were very nice.
I went here last weekend and the security guards are no good for this business the way they treat ppl.. saying the place is packed but still letting ppl they know in and what makes matter worst they trying to side hustle by saying anybody else wanna get in gotta pay a 100$ then gonna let the 2 females I was with in but not me cause I said something about the way they treating the ppl who supporting the business.. ever go to this place again.
Just came here last night and it was definitely something different and unique for my own experiences when it comes to lounges or bars. I'm from out of town and I must say it was a strange atmosphere where none of the employees seemed to check on their tables or ask for anything, I also remember asking someone for something and they simply proceeded to go hang out with other co workers. Over priced cover charge for something that looks like someone's basement, would not recommend if you're looking for something more exciting and memorable. It should be kept a secret like the name
This is a place you can come, have a nice cold beer, and then play Nutshell 10x in a row and not feel bad about it. 10\10 definitely recommend, the owner Nikita is locked in from the moment you walk in the door! Also uncanny doppelgänger with Aaron from Season 2 of Eastbound and Down.
Apparently bar tender Lisa had her set of opinions drastically different to mine. Fact, my IQ level is near genius. My stay was short. Nikita's definetly epitomizes s dive bar. No draft beers, some cans and bottles are over priced. Do yourself a favor, STAY AWAY. My 3 stars were generous.
Sports bar with several TVs & a menu of American fare including wings, burgers & daily specials.
Service was great! The associates are kind and attentive. The pizza looked fire, but then I found a long hair that was cooked into the pizza.
Just a complete waste. Not what it used to be. Pizza was way overcooked and tasted like frozen pizza. They should not have sold these garlic knots this charred.
