Paul McCartney has never been here but the lyrics to the song are relevant to the dining experience. I had the Surf and Turf but it was a major let down; almost tasted like they cooked in the same broiler pan together. I think the bar business is what keeps the place going; many PA establishments serve food mainly to allow them to sell alcohol 7 days a week. Also, too many drunk and obno Penn State fans yelling at me since I was wearing a University of Alabama T-shirt.

My husband and I decided to make the drive down from Renovo to try out the Rockbottom Riverfront Tavern near Lock Haven. It is actually about five miles outside of the city on a little road along the Susquehanna River. New ownership since early summer.... was never at the former place. We decided to try it based on its many positive Facebook reviews. We went for a very late lunch and arrived around 2:40. The kitchen didn't open until 3:00 and the bartender was very kind and apologetic. We chose to enjoy a beer and a wine will the kitchen prepped for the day. We were the only ones in the place....which we were quite happy about. This is a bar.... pool table, some dining tables and a very tiny deck with only a few small tables. We sat by the window with a pretty view of the river. They had just cleared the wooded area across the street and opened up the view. Our waiter took our orders and was very knowledgeable about the menu. They employ a trained chef and it showed. Our food was awesome. We ordered fried pickles with mustard to start. These were fresh dill pickle slices, lightly breaded and fried...... nothing from the freezer! I would drive the 30+ miles from Renovo just to have these again! My husband also started with some of their crab bisque which the chef recently added to the menu. It was some of the best we have ever had.... not too thick, full of lump crab and a good cream based stock seasoned with onions and celery (I think).... I don't typically care for crab bisque but it was excellent. Our entrees: I ordered the Elk burger done medium. It was topped with bacon jam, fresh arugula and blue cheese on a very nice toasted bun (brioche?). It was done perfectly...nice and pink in the middle but not raw at all. Not gamey. My husband ordered the shaved prime rib sandwich and we both had fresh cut fries. He enjoyed his sandwich very much! The fries were great.Friendly staff and clean place. We will definitely go back for more! From what the waiter said, the place gets very busy and so if you want to be sure to get a seat you may want to go in the off hours. They do have live music on certain nights from 10-1am.

Went there as an after wedding luncheon. The service was excellent and everyone seemed to enjoy their meal. As the luncheon was pre-planned, there was no vegetarian option. When our waiter, Mark, asked for my order I simply said I am a vegetarian and will just have the salad and veggies whereupon he said, I'll see what the cook can do. When he served the meals he brought me a nice plate of veggie pasta. I would definitely go back.

The drive is beautiful, just watch out for deer. If you hit it at the right time of year, the Mountain Laurel, is gorgeous. The restaurant is really cool. The décor is interesting and has the most evenly spaced dollar bills stapled all over that I have ever seen in a bar. Beautiful fireplace with comfy leather furniture to relax with a drink and some casual conversation. Huge menu with bar food, which I prefer. I had the biggest, best buffalo chicken salad I have ever had and my friend said that his BLT was the best ever! The service was fine, the staff was friendly and it was reasonably priced. There is no doubt that we will be going back!

I had to get off of I-80 because of a freezing rain advisory, and Seri sent me to Lock Haven. I had a great bed at the Best Western and they steered me to this local bar.At 5:30 PM on Friday night it was packed with locals. I sat at the bar between a carpenter and an electrician. They were good company and helped me make a dinner choice of Chicken Fajitas. Loved it and had enough to share and take home. According to the locals it is a best buy. Liked my beer, too...I think it was some sort of amber wheat thingy. Tab came to $15.00. Nice visit to a nice town that BTW is full of Federal architecture.

The Main Street Grill

Reviewed By Nprus

We gathered here for drinks, and then ordered dinner. The flounder and rice were both perfectly cooked, and the waitress great for letting me substitute the broccolini seasonal vegetable for the sauteed greens. Others ate the pizza (huge for the price), the tacos, the soup of the day which was an Irish stew, the salmon, the mango/curry chicken, and the vegetarian pasta. Everyone thought the food was great. No this is not an elegant restaurant. No this is not the place to get a romantic dinner. It is good food in a fun atmosphere. Plus the mac and cheese sounded pretty interesting, as did the wing special. (The desserts going by looked great too!)Oh - and thank you Main Street Grill for showing other than sports on the many televisions around the bar area ! Two televisions for sports, one for Family Feud, and one for the news was a welcome sight !

Delighted we found this great little busy pub and even though it was almost 9.30 pm, we could still order food. The kitchen is small but the food was fresh and tasty and perfectly complimented the local beers.

We were staying about half way between State College and Lock Haven this past weekend, and did not want to try any State College locations due to graduation festivities. So we headed to Lock Haven instead. Three of us shared the family feast, and we enjoyed it - although the menu states it is for 3-4 people, many of the items served were in multiples of 3 so not sure how it would have worked for 4 people. We did sit at the outdoor patio.

Stopped here after visiting the Piper Aviation museum. Quiet town today. The bartender took our order promptly and got us our drinks. Food came out quickly. I got the Ham BBQ sandwich, it was good, my chips were a tad on the stale side, I thought it came with fries. My husband for the Corner sandwich and seemed to like it and his fries were good.
