    Nestled across the street from the Huntington prison sits Jackson's. The bartenders are very nice as was the group of locals in the bar.

    I only got pictures of the menu, because out of the 4 of us, the bartender got 1 order right. I'm…read moregonna be honest... Walking in, it looked like a pretty cool restaurant/ bar! I was told it's a great place to eat if your in the area. Its located in one of the busiest parts of Elk Country, near Benezette PA. During leaf peeping time-this place was crazy busy but we took our chances. Being very loud... I pointed to the item on the menu, simple chicken tenders and a side salad. She asked what dressing I would like ect. I got 4 chicken nuggets and no salad. She said it would take a while for a side salad, and charged for the side of ranch dressing? My sister, another simple order, chicken tender dinner that came w fries. she asked to upgrade the fries to add chili, waitress say ok. She got her chili on a separate side of fries which she was charged for Next, a bowl of chili- he got a bowl of cream of Broccoli- The only thing that came out right was a cheeseburger! I swear no one is trained right And I'm not sorry for saying this, but if you know that it's the busiest weekend at the end of summer, GET SOME REAL HELP! PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT PEOPLE ARE ORDERING! Besides the gripe, they said the food was good but the service was terrible, at the bar at least.

    Food was absolutely amazing, service could be better but not bad, only complaint is the service we…read morewere getting the service we needed we waited over 30 minutes to get drinks and it wasn't busy at all, and when we finished our drinks we still waited almost 30 minutes and we had to ask another waitress if she could get our bill and another round of drinks

    This place has one bathroom stall, lots of cussing, and cheap drinks…read more The abandoned mine shaft bar is an absolute dive but you can't beat it. It's cool to get a cheap drink or shot, see the mine cave, listen to the music, and move on with your trip. Locals and travelers alike visit this establishment. It's not fancy and smells a bit musty but the clientele and pricing are great. I've been a patron here every time I'm in town for a few years now. It's a consistent experience every time, we are repeat customers. 21+ only NO KIDS. Pro tip: bar service & paying your check can be kinda slow because the bartenders get to talking - which is a bonus if you're on the receiving end of the talking.... but they get sidetracked often. Consider backing up your drink and paying cash up front. Anyway this is the reason it's knocked down a star, can get kinda frustrating when you just want a beer, sometimes it takes a while even if they aren't busy.

    Reliance Mine was recommended to us by a family member and long time local. If you're looking for…read moreultimate dive bar vibes with a mine theme, this is the place to go. The bartenders, Jasmine and Derek, were straight to the point and friendly. Derek actually offered to make a specialty cocktail right as we sat down. Decent selection of local craft beer. Inexpensive drinks with fast service. Several of the other guests were not locals, but actually travelers that had deemed this place their go-to spot when staying in Gettysburg or passing through. No food menu, but you can bring your own or have food delivered. There is additional parking and entrance in the back off of Taneytown Road if the hotel parking is too full. Just the perfect cozy dive bar spot with a sweet fireplace and fun locals. Check it out!

    Great staff and atmosphere…read more The most delicious house made pickles...PLEASE START SELLING THEM

    After couple hours of walking around Altoona,I wasn't very excited to try this place,it's looked…read moreshabby,it was construction work everywhere around,dusty and dirty. But we decided to not spend more time for finding something else and stepped in. It was very charming,surprisingly well kept,of course old,but in a good way. Menu was intriguing,modern and seasonal,which I value the most. Waiter was engaging in our menu exploration and was knowledgeable. Now to the food.. cauliflower appetizer made as General Tso was one other best cauliflower in my entire life. Lightly fried,not mushy,but with exact chicken like texture in divine sauce,kicking spicy with sweet undertones. In the same way not overpowering to forget about cauliflower itself. A+ for that dish!!! Pirogi was a little doughy on my opinion,but taste was good. Asian bowl with salmon had great flavor profile: cabbage salad was beautiful and freshly crisp,carrots were marinated perfectly with slight vinegary flavors,bok choy was unbelievably delicious. I asked for medium salmon,mine was almost well done,but taste was good and rice in the middle wasn't sticky and flavorful,but had watery texture and was bland. Overall,this is an amazing festival of flavors and technically challenging menu. Bravo!!!
