At the meeting of I-80 and I-476 there sits an Arby's. It shares a parking lot with a Burger King…read moreand from the outside looks as though no one has loved it for a very long time. The lot is cracked and patched in the manner of old knees. The edges are tufted with weeds doing their best impression of prairie grass. The stop sign by the exit has given up on vertical life and now leans against its pole like it is waiting for a bus that will never come. But step inside and you find yourself in a different story. The place is clean and bright, and the people who work there seem to have won some secret lottery for friendliness. The young teen at the register was a trainee. We may have been her first solo customers. Her manager hovered at a respectful distance, smiling but silent, like a lighthouse keeper watching a small boat navigate the channel. She did just fine. The food was exactly what you want from Arby's if you are the kind of person who occasionally wants Arby's. I had my usual Beef n' Cheddar with curly fries. It was good. My wife and older son split a cheeseburger and potato wedges and declared themselves satisfied. My youngest had mac and cheese and loved it in a way that suggested he might dream about it later. This Arby's is perfectly positioned for an easy on-and-off stop that feels like a rest area without the inflated rest area prices. In the world of Arby's, this was about as good as it gets, short of someone coming outside with a weed trimmer and upright stop sign.

Food choices here are A-Plus Convenience Store, Burger King, Jamba Juice, Starbucks, Aunt Auntie Anne's Pretzels & Quiznos. Chose the Quiznos and got Black Angus Steakhouse. Came out pretty quickly, and was delicious. Wonderful "Rosemary" roll. Wife & I ate every bit. Definitely will get this again! Restrooms are clean and equipped! Pretty new service plaza, so it was a nice experience. Keep in mind that these locations are priced a little higher because we are a "captive audience".

Since there are several things here, Ill combine them all under the travel plaza…read more. ---------- FOOD: Theyve got a Mcdonalds and an A-Plus station. I went in both.. Mcdonalds: I stopped in for breakfast thinking Ill get an egg and cheese mcmuffin. Who puts ham on something called "egg and cheese"? Needless to say, I went without breakfast because NOT ONE thing came without meat. Jerks. A-Plus: On the way back I desperatly needed gas, mostly because I refused to pay 3.15 in NY. I paid 2.75 here. So I went in and browsed. They have the usual convienience store junk, nothing special. I got some water and a sack of crackers. mmm. DECOR: Not much to say here. Mcdonalds looks like a mash up of restaurant and travel plaza. The A-Plus looks like any other convienience store.. SERVICE: Mcdonalds: None. A girl was mopping the floor, 3 guys were milling around waiting for help and no one came. A-Plus: Good. The help was friendly. ---------- FINAL THOUGHTS: Its a rest stop. Stop and rest. McDonalds sucks, but otherwise Id stop again. It was clean and friendly.

I called 15 mins before going asking if there was a wait for a party of 9 (4 adults and 5 kids) and since there wasn't a wait, we headed over hoping there wasn't going to be a brunch rush or something, especially on new year day. We got here and were greeted by every staff and sat down right away in the back (which was perfect). Our drink orders were take right away and our waitress was so friendly and patient with us when we started ordering our food. Food came out fairly quickly and it was SO good, I didn't even take pictures! All I have to say is that my group ordered different things from the menu and no one was disappointed with what they got. I don't remember the name of my dish, but it was basically sausage on biscuits smothered in gravy and a side of home fries. This is definitely a place I would come back to if I was ever in the area again. The place was a little dated but I loved the open kitchen and the friendliness of the staff. Good food and friendly staff is always a 5 star in my books

** Good Pizza for the quick fast food dinner idea **…read more Now friends, when it comes to pizza I am a heavy critic as I have found most restaurants use canned items as toppings. I'm not a fan but it feeds the machine. I ordered the Tippy Special pizza version and it was a great tasting pizza. I will not hold a fast-food restaurant to a Michelin Star standard. That being said I enjoyed the pizza and even have gone back a second and third time and I like the food they prepare. Good food, good service and I have not eaten inside yet but one day I will.

This review is for the restaurant in the lodge, we didn't stay at the lodge:…read more Went here over 4th of July weekend with the entire family, sisters and nephews to see the fireworks. Needed a place to eat and we were sort of a captured audience - didn't see any other places within walking distance. Having grown up going to the Poconos for vacation weekends for the last 30 years, I have come to lower my expectations. You just don't get as good food or service in the area as a large city. That said, I would like to add that in the last 10+ years the area has gotten much better, more options. I cannot recommend this restaurant. First, the place smells dank. I can only assume it is because there is carpet in the dinning area - why someone would put carpet in a restaurant is beyond me. It just gets wet and grungy over time, no way to clean it out. The service we awfully slow. We sat down, and we did get water and bread pretty much right away. However after that no server for 10-15 minutes. Had to ask twice for someone to come over. This is a very long wait, especially when you have little kids. The place was not yet super crowded either, this was early like 6pm, maybe it was 1/2 full. Our server was a nice kid, very friendly. He did a great job once he was "told" people were at his table. Our drinks (beer / wine) came out slowish too. Otherwise he did an excellent job and was tipped 20+ % So the how is the food? Not great. I'd give it more like 2.5 stars. Fries were cold and seemed to be sitting out, not fresh cut. My chicken sandwich was tiny and not very flavorful. Bun was soggy too. My sisters like their chicken quesdillas, but again I thought they were tiny and not much chicken. Cesar salad was decent. My kids Mac and Cheese was actually pretty good just needed salt. The view from the dinning area is beautiful though. If you want to come in for an amazing view, some beers and some bar food then you probably will be happy, so long as you can stand the mild dank smell. One last thing, the mens bathroom was absolutely filthy. Yes, it was a holiday weekend and the outside area was packed but still no excuse. They need to have a kid in there every hour cleaning it. With the right manager and some tweaks this place could really be solid but for now we won't be back.
