    Cheesesteak, Utz dill pickle, coca cola classic.
    Yonas E.

    Get the premium cheesesteak! It's at the top of the list in the Lehigh Valley! The service is decent and the ambiance is laid back.

    Sm Homemade Pierogies

    Ordered pickup from here and it was ready in 15 minutes! Casual takeout spot with a few tables. Typical eastern PA sandwich shop... Except the steak hoagies in the Lehigh Valley hit different. Ordered a pizza steak and side of pierogis. The pierogis are I N C R E D I B L E!!! Order some if you're thinking about it! The steak with the sauce and hot peppers is everything. So good! Great flavor and the bread stays firm and doesn't fall apart. I wish this was closer to where I live, but it will be special when I come back next time to visit!

    Half of a large cheesesteak.

    Looking at the reviews I thought this would be a good place. When I got there everything was overpriced (3.50 for a 20oz bottle of soda), the place was empty and looked dirty. But I figured I would give it a try as the photos and reviews were good. When I got the food I was sad to say the steaks were not filled, falling apart and bland. If I could name my price I wouldnt have paid half. Same yourself the cost and get better steaks elsewhere.

    First time trying Eli's and was highly impressed! Fresh bread, loaded cheesesteak and amazing pierogis.

    I stopped by on Black Friday to grab cheesesteaks with the family. We were promptly taken out separate orders and food came out fast and hot. I did the homemade pierogies (an absolute must have!) and large cheesesteak on a seeded roll. I asked for sauce on the side (I didn't like the sauce, and you didn't need sauce) the cheesesteak was excellent. Next time I would try the ribeye $2 upgrade. Definitely will be back!

    Small steak sandwich with onion & mushroom

    This is a neighborhood hoagie shop. Small steak sandwich with onion, mushroom and marinara sauce was very good. The buns are so good they add to deliciousness of the sandwich. Owner was very nice.

    I have been trying to get here for about a year and finally got the chance. Eli's is considered a top 5 steak in the LV by a lot of people I respect so I had to find out for myself. I have at least a very strong top 3 so there is room in that top 5, but it'll have to knock at least one more decent steak out. The meat was seasoned well, the onions were cooked well and had the proper dice to them, and the roll was solid. The ability to get cooper sharp on a steak always makes the place an instant point higher or so in my opinion. Steak was a bit pricey but what isn't these days? I would definitely say this slides into the top 5 in the LV for me. I've heard their other sandwiches are just as good so i'll need to go back soon, but Eli's - Didn't Suck! Check out my TikTok video from Eli's and many others in the LV area!

    My wife went this past weekend (3/21/26). She was meeting people from her job to celebrate a…read moremomentous occasion for a coworker. I didn't go, but my wife asked if I wanted anything off the menu. I cut meat out of my diet so finding alternatives when eating out sometimes can be a challenge. I can say I haven't eaten meat on a daily or weekly basis for going on 3 years now. Have l slipped and eaten meat?Let that craving for meat consume me. Hell yeah I have, I'm not perfect and I can admit that. So as I'm looking at the menu here at Fegley's B.B.W. I came across their "CHUNK VEGAN STEAK" and asked my wife to order that for me. Now I've had some imitation steaks before, but when my wife came in with this Chunk Vegan Steak. I opened up the container and from just looking at the appearance of this Chunk Steak I was totally taken back and honestly thought this piece of meat was real. I then cut me a piece and proceeded to eat. WOW! Talk about a great tasting vegan piece of steak! I actually told my wife "babe I think they made a mistake and put a real piece of steak in my meal. I was so taken back by the taste of this steak. I offered my daughter a piece and when she ate it she burst my bubble and said she could tell it wasn't real. As a meat eater she has keen taste of real meat. I on the other hand would eat this chunk vegan steak in place of a real steak anytime. If you're ever hungry and want to eat out and aren't a meat eater. I would recommend this Vegan Chunk Steak at Fegley's Bethlehem Brew Works to anyone who isn't a red meat eater. Now as I rant about this vegan chunk steak the whole meal the asparagus the potatoes were delicious. The people in the group said their food was delicious also. I called the next day and had to express myself and compliment them on this fantastic fake steak. I'll definitely be going back for some more! This place does food the right way!

However, the overall experience was disappointing due to slow service, lack of communication, and issues with the food. We visited after the Lehigh Graduate Commencement Ceremony and were seated from 1:30-3:00 PM. Our server, Younise, only checked on us roughly every 15 minutes. It then took 45 minutes for pretzels and another 30 minutes for our 2 entrees. While we overheard that the kitchen was behind, this was never communicated to us directly, which made the long wait more frustrating. There was also an issue with my order. I ordered the Caesar salad wrap (Julius' Chicken Dance $14), but I was brought a Caesar salad with chicken ($3 up-charge) instead. The server did not offer to have the kitchen correct it or provide an alternative. After discussing it, I eventually asked if she could bring me a tortilla so I could make the wrap myself. A 15% discount was applied, which I appreciated, but the bill still listed the incorrect meal and reflected the higher-priced salad instead of the wrap I originally ordered. The burger was also underwhelming, as the cheese was not melted. For a meal that came to over $60 for pretzels, a burger, a salad item, and one drink, I expected better communication, food quality, and customer service. The ambiance was great, but the entrees and service unfortunately did not match the setting
