    The only restaurant where I get Delicious Smoked Chicken Wings. I don't know any other place that has this. It's a unique flavor and taste, it has a HUGE selection of beers as well, is like 4 pages on the beer menu..lolol a lifetime to taste them all..jaja! There is a backyard section for drinking eating, my favorite. Customer service is excellent. All the food items I tasted were great, too many to list one by one. Best eating experience. Oh yeah, and a wide variety of sauces and dips. Try them all, like I did. Jaja! This restaurant is located in front of the main parks, the center of Scranton. It is an absolute must do.

    Went during the games on Sunday and there was still plenty of seating both inside and outside. We sat at the bar as there were no low tops available and brought our dog with us, Marshmallow with us as its dog friendly outside. We had a really great time. Crowd was lively, bartenders were called by name so it goes to show tons of regulars. Service was great and food was amazing as well. We ordered the Tito's chicken parm sandwich, Buffalo chicken dip and brisket sammi. All were flavorful and filling.

    We came back again because we gave the food a 4.5 last year. We sat at the bar last night and had very good service. Our bartender was friendly, attentive and checked in on us frequently. My husband ordered the Banjo pig, their version of a Cuban sandwich. He absolutely loved it and said it was the best he has ever had. I ordered the vegetarian tacos which were a letdown. The tacos came out room temperature and there didn't seem to be much to the taco besides the beyond crumbles. I ordered a side salad which was very good but it was served in a banana split bowl. It was hard to eat so we decided to spread it out on our empty plate and it was tasty. My husband is still dreaming of his sandwich therefore a negotiation will most likely be occurring for our next visit here.

    Came here on the Friday of Cardboard Classic and really enjoyed the entire evening. It was a great atmosphere: we sat in the front room with the bar but you could tell it was busy in the back. The alcohol list is extensive. We were served relatively fast: very clear the wait staff just grabs whatever table and helps where they can. My husband got the smoked wings, I got the steak tacos. Tacos were absolutely delicious and the shell being crispy was a really unique touch. The wings were good but the clear winner here is the sauce: it's like a cross between a spicy ketchup and a barbecue sauce, but lighter? Very delicious!

    I enjoy going to the BYA when I'm in Scranton. Nice selection of micros on tap. I prefer eating in the backyard, but a little tough to do in the winter. The bar area is a classic pub with dark wood, plenty of room at the bar with lots of table seating. Parking is on street. Service was good. I had 2 awesome IPAs and the BBQ sampler with a side of mac n cheese. I love their Mac. One of my favorites. My BBQ Sampler choice was pork, ribs and brisket. It was a huge portion. I wasn't overly excited with either the brisket or the ribs. In my opinion there was way too much much dry rub. Pork was awesome and so was the cornbread.

    Great place. Served in less than 10 min. The wings were awesome. My son and his fiancé ate here in January and had remarked how great the wings were. We happened to stop by today. Then sent them a photo and said " is the place?" Yup it was this place and they were right!
