We both built our own beef burgers, but the choices made it difficult to decide what to order....lol So delicious!!! I might even go as far to say the best burger I have ever eaten. We both were very impressed with the choices, flavor, juiciness and price!We were not impressed at all with the casino, but if we were back in the area, I would go back to this restaurant!!!!

My husband and I had a nice romantic dinner. The place is very dim with just enough lighting with candles, very pretty. The evening started off with a very friendly waitress who helped us choose our cocktails. She made a suggestion for me so my drink would not be too sweet. Very helpful. The drinks were perfect. She then helped us order our 4 small plates that we chose and she had them come out at different times so we didn't get the food all at once, it worked out so perfectly. And of course everything was delicious. We will definitely be back!

Why aren't there restaurants like this one near my house. The food was AMAZING. I am not kidding. It was absolutely delicious. I must eat gluten free. They offer a gluten free fried chicken with cheesy corn bread. So delicious. I wish I was eating that dish again right now. The kids had shrimp mac & cheese, a burger and a steak taco. All three left happy with their meals. I'm not sure that has ever been achieved in the history of teenagers. The service was incredible. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. Eat at TheMint. You won't be sorry.

Ample parking for Taps in strip mall setting on Route 378. Friendly service. Generous size bar featuring wide selection of beers. TV's available. Good sports bar setting. The steak sandwiches are really very good here. Our new favorites are the cheese steak egg rolls served with a spicy sweet dipping sauce. Another fav is the onion soup which has a punch with stout added. Stop in-think you will be glad you did.

Arrived for a 4:30pm Saturday dinner reservation and was immediately seated for at table for 9. Restaurant gradually became busier over the next hour or so. Tables out front are a nice option for warmer weather. Extensive menu from bar dishes (pizza, appetizers, burgers) to full entrees (pasta, steak, seafood). There are options for everyone. Good drink, wine, beer list as well. We were happy to find a happy hour special while we were there which gave you $2 off drinks and some food. Water was kept filled for everyone, no need to ask and other drinks were never left to go empty, you were always asked if you wanted more before you finished. Food all came out looking great and was delicious! Very enjoyable evening with friends at a reasonably priced restaurant with a cool vibe.

Went here for lunch with a large group of colleagues (reservations were made ahead of time so we had the large private dining area). We shared a variety of appetizers: pierogies, loaded nachos, cheese curds, wings, and pretzels. For my lunch entrée I had their Beer Battered Fish and Chips. Everything was delicious! As my drink I had some sort of seasonal Blueberry Ale which was also good. I am looking forward to coming back to this location in the future. I would highly recommend it!

We were driving around the Allentown area looking for a few businesses and I remembered researching a hotel in Bethlehem months ago that seemed to have a good restaurant. So we stopped in for lunch and were pleasantly surprised. We each had a cup of the ham and lentil soup which was delicious, if not a little too salty for our tastes (but nothing like the obligatory over-salting of many PA restaurants.) We also had a Nicoise salad with grilled salmon and a crab cake sandwich. The dressing on the salad was perfect, just right - not over-powering so you could actually taste the salad rather than just crunchy salad dressing - as is also common in PA. The sandwich was also tasty. At the end we decided to try the Penn State creamery ice cream . It was just as we like it - with less butterfat than "premium" ice cream like B&Js. The flavors chocolate chip cookie dough, mint chocolate chip and putter pecan were excellent. Finally, I had a Provence Rose that was outstanding. There is a parking garage two blocks away, and the atmosphere of the old hotel was somewhat formal, yet casual too.

I moved to Bethlehem 9 months ago and this is my go-to place. The food is great, Try the Cottage Pie and they have best wings in town. The staff behind the bar will give you a nice explanation of the wall of whiskey and suggest a drink that will go with your food. Even the soups are great. Staff is friendly and helpful. Bethlehem has a lot of great food from around the world. Start your world tour at the Red Stag Pub, you will be happy that you did!

We had asked for recommendations from their neighbor on good places to eat in town. This was the first one mentioned and it was right across the road from where we were.I have to laugh, because this place appears to be for the younger crowd and these seniors walk in and we sort of get a look, but that's OK. We can be sociable with anyone. We started out with their specialty drinks; a Jalapeno Heist for my wife, yup! and I had the Banana Boy. Great drinks. We followed that with some duck wings for starters and my wife went just for a salad and I ordered the pastrami Salmon Cured BLT. I swear it was the best sandwich I have ever had. I still talk about it. We capped our visit with Barista Creme Brulee and Strawberry Shortcake. What a great experience we had. This place was previously a bank and the owner has really done a nice job in making it work for their purpose. It is a younger crowd but my gosh! don't let that stop you. Had a nice waitress as well with her recommendations. For those who might be visiting the Steel Stakes or the Museum, it's right across the street. Leave your car and walk across the street. As for any handicap, I would say you might want to get there early because seating is somewhat limited and it would be difficult getting upstairs. Thanks to the Social Still for a great experience and keep that sandwich on the menu.
