While driving home from the ski slopes and trying to avoid a fast food establishment we stumbled upon the Covered Bridge Inn. On this night, temperatures on Blue MTN was near zero. We hoped to get a warm meal in a warm restaurant but were disappointed. CBI did offer great service and the meatloaf special that was an enormous offering of 2, 1" slices of ground beef wrapped in bacon with potatoes and gravy that was accompanied by a vegetable medley of string beans, broccoli and carrots. The meal was warm but wasn't great and it wasn't bad although it filled our void. Sadly, the meal didn't warm us up and I'm glad we split the dish as there's no way in hell anyone could eat such a portion. I saw someone with a burger that looked good, maybe next time. read more

Tonight we both ordered off the outside grill menu & were very pleased with both the ribs and the salad. Service was spot on, there was a band playing when we first got there. It was a bit too loud to hear each other, but the music was enjoyable. read more

A Truly Exceptional Experience at Covered Bridge Inn If you're looking for a place where service isn't just a policy but a genuine passion, look no further than the Covered Bridge Inn. Our recent visit was defined by an level of attentiveness and care that far exceeded our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff was phenomenal. What truly set them apart, however, was their incredible willingness to adapt and ensure our comfort. We had originally settled inside, but found the live music wasn't to my mother's taste. Instead of a simple apology, the team sprang into action. They not only found us a perfect spot outdoors but also arranged seating around a warm, crackling fire pit. It transformed our evening from good to magical. This single act spoke volumes. The staff didn't just solve a problem; they went out of their way to create a better, more personalized experience. They checked on us regularly, ensuring we were warm and had everything we needed, all with a smile that felt authentic. In short, the service was nothing short of impeccable. The entire team at Covered Bridge Inn operates with a rare blend of professionalism and heartfelt hospitality. They turned a potential hiccup into our favorite memory of the night. We left feeling not just satisfied, but truly valued as guests. We cannot recommend this charming inn highly enough. It's a testament to how thoughtful service can elevate everything. We will absolutely be back. Their Winter Cocktail list was also pretty amazing... gingerbread martinis, toasted marshmallow, espresso, martinis, blueberry & vanilla mule, cranberry, brown sugar, and cranberry bourbon, jingle juice, coconut margarita read more

Covered Bridge Inn - Winter Cocktail Menu - American Near Me - Palmerton, Pennsylvania

Made reservations for party of 6 last minute. Able to get a table to our surprise. New menu and waitress was willing to answer all questions. Food arrived surprisingly fast and was cooked to everyone's wishes. Waitress kept checking on beverages and how meal was tasting. Bar was packed but not loud. We had enough space and didn't feel cramped. Reasonable prices and huge portions of food. Great experience all around. read more

Ambiance (4/5): We visited during February after skiing nearby at the Blue Mt Resort. Sadly we were not able to experience their outdoor backyard. There's a small parking lot to the side of the inn. The inside feels like a cozy cabin with one side being a full service bar and the other side for seated dining. The tables were nested close to each other. By Saturday around 1pm, guests started piling in. We sat right next to the warmth of the fireplace. There's TVs all around the establishment. They have multiple events featured throughout the month, such as trivia on Thursdays at 6:30pm. Service (5/5): The wait staff were extremely friendly and smiley. She was hustling on the floor and did a great job at it! While it took some time to get our orders placed, The food came out fair Drinks: $11 mule flight! The full list of mules all sounded too tasty and each one that I ordered was indeed delicious. I would have definitely ordered another one if I didn't have to return to the slopes! Food: Buddha Bowl ($20) (3/5) - My dish was more like a platter, of the deconstructed salad. I requested a side of steak ($7) to my meal. The steak was tough to bite into and not worth the extra cost. The bowl was absolutely filling but there wasn't much taste to it with the exception of the tahini (?) dressing. I enjoyed the fried cauliflower but everything else was a letdown. My friends dining thought their dishes were extremely bland including the CBI Burger and chicken parm sub. read more

Went on a Saturday night in January (so, ski season). Luckily we were able to be seated immediately. Service was wonderful and food came out fast. Servings were plentiful. We got drunken clams ($14) shrimp bisque ($8), shrimp & scallop Alfredo and shrimp ($38) & lobster stir fry (but asked for linguine instead of rice), Everything was good- but the sauce on my stir fry overpowered everything and the scallops were overdone. My husband also thought his shrimp bisque was thin although there was shrimp in it. But, overall still good. We didn't realize that we also got a salad, which was very good. Drinks were also good and reasonably priced (wine $7- double cocktail $12). I was so full so I asked for my dessert of pound cake with berries "to go". The pound cake was great, berries and vanilla sauce delicious but it was odd to have a huge piece of kiwi on top (but I tried it, but it wasn't peeled so I gave up!). But only $6 which was great! The place had a nice bar which was full of patrons and the cozy dining room was also full. I saw people who got burgers and they looked really good. It was nice to have some live music playing in the corner. Seems they have plenty of special events and we think we'll come back on a Thurs for their trivia night. We'll be back! read more

An enjoyable experience! The food was good, waitresses efficient and friendly. The live entertainment was an added bonus! read more

We loved everything about this place! The ambience, the service, the food, and the value were all excellent. There was even live music that was fun to listen to while we ate. Drinks were also very good. We will definitely be back! read more

I wanted to take this time to Thank John, Carly, and the rest of the staff (and even the delightful older fella with his own bar stool) for being so awesome and accommodating with our large Biker crew! We came from over 2 hrs away and were able to set up our table outside and enjoy a gorgeous day with the band and great food! It was a little tricky with 26 customers, but John and his staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed! The food was delicious and everyone was happy with their meals and service! Thank you again John and Carly! We appreciated everyone pitching in and helping us have a wonderful lunch! read more

Covered Bridge Inn - Next stop.. The Covered Bridge Inn - American Near Me - Palmerton, Pennsylvania

Good food, not always consistent, service is good. It's a fun place to hang out, nice varied crowd.

The food has always been good when I've stopped at CBI.This time, not so much . The Big Bang burger I ordered was smothered with a chipotle mayo that ran off the sandwich when I picked it up. After my first bite I could see it was not cooked to medium as ordered. In fact for being ground beef I wouldn't even call it medium rare This Burger was barely cooked. The waitress was friendly and apologetic for the burger. We sat at the outdoor seating which was spacious and set up well for various weather conditions. read more

Covered Bridge Inn - American Near Me - Palmerton, Pennsylvania

Burgers are top tier! homeade chips, and a amazing atmosphere as well as the patio!! The only downside is parking!

If you're super hungry then stop here...the food was only eatable if you are starving. We stopped here because we had just finished a race and it was the first visible restaurant in site. Where do I begin. they have a variety of martinis but are made with cheap liquor and tasted awful. The burger was mediocre and falling apart as I ate it. I had to ask for coleslaw and pickles which should come with a sandwich. It was odd cause I was watching the table next to us and all of their patrons had the coleslaw and pickle. They also give you a tiny cup of ketchup.. I was too afraid to ask cause our waitress was trying to rush us out of an empty restaurant. Food took forever and we were the first patrons they had. Wouldn't venture here again and need to do better planning where there is poor data service. read more

Love this place I'm excited for the back patio! The food is great, can become stuffed but that shouldn't be an issue for long with the outdoor patio! Is highly recommend! read more

Really good food and the service is always good. Great atmosphere with a nice bar. It is a really fun time when they bring in live entertainment. Smash'd burgers the best thing here and I totally recommend it. BTW this is coming from the part time dishwasher of CBI. read more

We have been there many times and the staff is always friendly, they decorate for the holidays with different themes, the food is well portioned, and at a great cost read more

I came in with 3 friends and they ordered wings and I ordered a turkey sandwich and pierogies. The wings came out 40 minutes after we ordered and I sat for over an hour and a half waiting for food. When I asked about where the food was my server said that it wasn't even put in the system. I ended up just paying for the wings my friend got and left telling the server not to bother putting it in then cause at that point it was almost 2 hours that I had been sitting there with no food. 100% would not recommend going here, I wasted time and money to not even eat. read more

It's always a great time coming here! The food is soo good. Definitely recommend the stuffed mushrooms, homemade chips with blue cheese, shrimp Caesar salad & pizza. Staff is great & love when they have live music. read more

***THIS ESTABLISHMENT IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP*** Came here last Wednesday for some drinks and food. The bar staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The place was packed however, we still received our drinks within 3-4 minutes of arriving. We decided to order food and ill be honest, it was some of the best food that I have had in a while. The chicken Caesar salad was BOMB! My partner ordered the chicken tenders which were amazing. I was absolutely jealous! The tenders melted in your mouth and tasted amazing. Will come again. read more

Had a great lunch there. We had a variety of items in our party of 4 and everything was great. Only minor critique would be to mix up the Cesar salad with the dressing. Clams where great and fish & chips massive and delicious. They do need to step up their craft beer presence. They have about 80% macros and should be the opposite especially since there are so many great craft breweries nearby. Hint: skiers want good craft beer. read more

So, this is how our experience went tonight: Sat at the bar, friendly bartender. Ordered a drink each. Ordered the Buffalo Chicken Dip, something to munch on with our drinks.... food came out relatively quick, but as the waitress put it down on the bar, about 25% chips slid off the plate. No big deal, right? You never need as many chips as they give you, not the end of the world.... we're not people who care much over the little things.... Nope.... Wrong. It's like it happened in slow motion... the waitress swept the chips to the edge of the bar, as if to toss them in the trash (the extraordinarily acceptable thing to do), but instead!!!!! Picked them up, chip by chip, and put them BACK. ON. OUR. PLATE. With her bare hands. We sat, mouths gaping. We were literally too dumbfounded to say anything, ate from the "other" side of the plateau quickly as possible, drank our drinks, paid our tab and left. We won't be back. Health Inspectors, we advise that you take a visit. read more

This place used to be the place to go in the area. We would go to wing night every other week. Apparently new owners took over in the last few months and it's gone downhill. I get inflation, but if you're going to charge $15 for 10 wings with a single dollar off on wing night to make them $14 for 10... probably should make the wing meaty and worth while. Also wouldn't call that a wing night. Ordered loaded fries for my sister and there was a sprinkle of shredded cheese with a piece of crumbled bacon.... it's disappointing. There are not many places to eat around here to begin with. Just another place looking to get a bang for their buck. read more

Great place to eat. I love the pizza and chicken fingers! The Covered Bridge inn is an exceptional restaurant. I love coming here for dinner. read more

The wings and the choices of wing sauce were amazing. Definitely the best wings in the area. The service is great, everyone was incredibly friendly and attentive! read more

Absolutely delicious homemade food. The perogies were exceptional (we got sausage and onion). Clearly freshly made. Our waitress, Michelle, was friends, efficient and attentive. I had the fish and chips and the food was very fresh. My companion had the burger and was very happy. The fries are cut and made in house and it shows. Definitely recommend read more

Wow, talk about continuing to be pleasantly suprised by the dining options in this area! Quite honestly, when my friend moved from Philadelphia to Boyertown, I thought, "Oh crap, there goes any further nights of fun dining and plentiful drink among cool people...Now we're going to have to shoot our food!" Well, what a snob, an amazingly incorrect snob, I was being. A few weeks back we discovered Giannotti's Country Manor (the name IS a tad misleading) in Fleetwood and this past weekend we discovered the Covered Bridge Inn. The address given here is wrong, BTW, and it is actually on Covered Bridge Road at the junction of Rte 73 but hopefully Yelp will be updating that shortly. In any case, this place was great. It doesn't look like much from the outside but the inside is both fun and...eclectic...in style. The food and service, however, was excellent. First off we had escargot (escargot!!!) for an appetizer and I would say it rivaled some of the top preparations I have had in far more swank locations. Friend had a bacon, mushroom cheeseburger which was cooked perfectly and wonderfully seasoned. I had one of their flatbread pizzas (Buffalo chicken) and it was HUGE. I mean HUGE as in three meals worth. And it was very tasty as well. Their menu is huge and there is definitely something for everyone. From bar food to more upscale items (like lobster and the escargot). Service was a mix of old-school formal and hip informal and they both worked together perfectly. Prices are very reasonable considering the amount of food you get. Very happy with this find and we will definitely be back again and again. read more

Great beer and thirsty Tuesday they have drink specials. Staff is super friendly and their food is great. They have an awesome cheese steak. I was a little Leary since it had marinara sauce, but it was superb! read more

My bartender, Amanda was the BEST bartender I've ever had in my life. Kept my drinks filled, placed my food order exactly how I wanted it. Plus, she was Sassy. Immediately fell in Love with her. Amanda is the BEST! read more

Covered Bridge Inn - Awesome place! - American Near Me - Palmerton, Pennsylvania

I was here a couple of years ago and vowed never to go back. That was until I heard it was under new ownership! The restaurant is clean & the food was delicious and tasted fresh. Aside from a couple of minor issues with service, it was a great experience. read more

Was disappointed this time. Got an Italian that was on a stale roll with not much meat. Used to be our favorite take out for Italians...but not anymore! read more

Under new ownership. Outfrigginstanding. No more shit dumps in the creek. New owners know their shit. Recommended.

Good food, Poor Service. We went on a Friday night. The place was packed. Thankfully had a reservation. Not greeted (or even recognized) in the vestibule waiting area. Finally had to interrupt a waitress to be seated at our table which was clearly reserved for us. Waitress took our drink orders, came back quickly with beverages, and took our food orders. Wait. wait. Wait. Server brought plates to our table- not our orders, but belonged to neighboring table. Brought second set of plates, again belonged to another table. Thankfully, we were enjoying each others' company, but had to ask for our salads and appetizers. The waitress seemed surprised that we didn't have them yet. 2 salads and apps were served (with no plates) followed very quickly by our food orders. The food was tasty, no complaints there. Maybe it was just an "off" night in the kitchen. Doubtful to return. read more

Great place! Friendly staff and customers. Food is fresh and tasty. Homemade pizza is delicious- also try homemade chips with warm blue cheese dip! Love that place! read more

Great food, great atmosphere, friendly staff, reasonable prices. Definitely recommend giving this place a try, you won't be disappointed.

Great service and food. A true hidden gem. Had French onion soup, honey bbq garlic wings and killer shrimp. All delicious. Owners are caring and go the extra mile for ya. A definite recommendation when you're in the area. read more

The restaurant was in a rural area and the place was run down a bit, but the food was excellent and service was fast and very kind. There is a lot of room for bug parties as well! read more

Not sure how this place gets ant reviews below 5 stars - hands down one of the best places around. The owners and the staff are super friendly and Vera and Veronica at the bar make the best peach martinis I've ever had. Also, we are very picky wing eaters and this place doesn't ever let us down! They are known for their chicken tenders but also try the fish 'n chips - you won't be disappointed. Skip the negs on here and give them a try. read more

One of our favorite places to go. Thank god they got new owners!!!! Amazing food. We had a huge takeout order placed yesterday of mozzarella sticks, pizza and wings- all of our friends and family loved it. We came back the next day for lunch and the never disappoint. Veronica is the best! So happy we moved literally down the street and looking forward to becoming locals! read more

Great local business. ..food is awesome. ..fast friendly service. Pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommend trying this place. read more
