Midnights is a fantastic addition to the dining experience in Huntingdon, Pennsylvania, but seems…read moreintent on hiding its light inside a bushel basket - or in its case behind the steel doors of the cement block facade of the former, notorious Johnny's Bar. As a result, few of the people I raved about this place to had any idea it existed...and they should! Behind the ominous and seemingly windowless exterior, and on the other side of its prison-like metal door is a bright, warm, welcoming dining room with booths, tables, and a well-appointed bar. The staff are young, well-trained, friendly, and professional - taking pride in their menu, presentation, and service. The menu is relatively small but has a range of interesting and extremely flavorful dishes - appetizers, small plates, main dishes, salads, and desserts - that are nicely presented and priced right for the amount provided and the care taken to provide something beyond "standard central Pennsylvania fare" at prices that won't bankrupt anyone on a date or looking for a nice night out. Although kids are welcome, and likely to find something they'll enjoy, this isn't a "family style all-you-can-eat" sort of place. With that understood , Midnights adds nicely to Huntingdon's options for a night out or a place to meet friends after work. There are only two other comparable restaurants in a 30-minute driving range - 312 in downtown Huntingdon and Bluegills in Alexandria. Midnights is neither as formal nor as pricey as 312, and is far more contemporary in its offerings and attitudes. Its offerings compare to the contemporary tastes offered at Bluegills but were presented with more care. It must be said that the menu is relatively small but they offer weekly specials, so there's always something new to consider or try. And try it you should! Here's wishing Midnights a lot of success, a devoted clientele, and some opportunities to make their location as inviting on the outside as it is inside!

Super stoked to have ordered from here, the bartender was kind and clearly sober, which I appreciate in an establishment.

Don't leave without ordering the Prime Rib Sandwich!…read more At first I wasn't sure. We were here on a college visit for my daughter and there aren't a ton of food options around, Huntingdon is a small town. We got the recommendation from someone at the school. So we looked it up, no reviews on yelp??? So what the heck we gave it a try. It's a small "pub" but it's a comfortable kind of place. The people are super nice, in fact we got here and there were no tables, but unprompted a group of three people hopped up, gave us their table, and moved to the bar. Our waitress was crazy busy but after she finally got to us the service was fantastic and both the manager and the owner stopped by and checked in. Funny, but later I found out the owner was the dad and the manager and our server were his kids. They do a great job of hospitality in this family. But on the most important part... The food.... Okay the apps and whatnot are pretty standard fare, and good enough. But... I'm here to tell you that you are making a huge mistake if you leave Huntingdon without ordering the Prime Rib Sandwich! It's basically a French dip, but it's easily one of the best I've ever had. Is is "the best"? It's certainly in the conversation. I'm mad I'm full, because right now I want to order another one. I am not sure about most of the other food, I hope it's good, but who cares, I'll never order anything else if I go back.

Pumpernickel bread with a dijon spread topped with broccoli, shredded carrots and purple cabbage topped with provolone cheese and boy cured dressing drizzled on top with red onions. So many flavors you don't miss meat. Support this local business you won't be disappointed.

Huntingdon is a small town to which new trends come slowly and often imperfectly - the town, after…read moreall, still hasn't really accepted Juniata College, one of its largest employers, but - to be fair - it hasn't been quite 150 since the college was founded in 1876. So, it's almost a miracle that Huntingdon got its own microbrewery while the craft beer renaissance was still on, rather than decades later. Juniata Brewing Company is a welcome addition to the Sleepy Borough (by the way, there is no relationship with the college of the same name - the town has zoned all areas near the students "non-commercial" in order to deprive itself of the disposable cash these students bring to Huntingdon every year). JBC is located in a repurposed building in a fairly isolated part of town, adjacent to the railroad tracks but not on the "wrong side" of the tracks. The owners have created a welcoming if small tasting room, where a friendly staff serves flights, pints, pours, and take-away growlers of ~8 house-made seasonally rotating beers in a variety of styles, along (usually) with one or two kombuchas and a limited roster of mixed drinks. I have only tried the beers, but have visited nearly a dozen times, so have a sense of their variety and would say that JBC's brewing team is at its best to meet my interest when it steps beyond the "normal" styles. My favorites have been "Bierecat" - a delightful farmhouse ale that I've only seen offered once, "Cozy Cabin Porter", a Belgian-styled "Golden Strong Ale", and "Standing Stone Stout". These all were exciting and unexpectedly good. Other IPAs, lagers, and kölsches, however, have tended to be less interesting and are frequently similar enough in taste, color, mouthfeel, and effects that they are fairly hard to tell apart. The good news there, I guess, is that if you like one of them you'll probably enjoy the others. None were bad but few warranted a refill for me. One consistent problem at JBC, however, is under-carbonation. Their beers typically pour with little or no head and quickly begin to go quite flat. So customers may want to drink quickly, but it would be better to see JBC address this since it's an issue I've noticed consistently in visits over the past 1-2 years and have seen other reviewers note on Yelp and Untappd. Prices are quite reasonable for craft beer ($4.50-$7.00 for a pint), but reviews from the town seem incensed that their beer isn't as cheap or as tasteless as Miller Lite As I said, Juniata College is only now being grudgingly accepted after 148 years as a potential benefit to the town and its economy, so it may be too much to expect all The Sleepy Borough's residents to reawaken to the non-corporate brewing history that flourished in this part of Pennsylvania back when Juniata was founded and into the early 20th century or to accept that beer should have flavor and variety. But hard work and capital investment in the business (and the borough) has a price...which JBC keeps down enough to meet local budgets and still stay in business. There will always be cheap corporate beer and lifeless places to swill it down. JBC is better than those, and so is its beer. It's important to mention that at some craft breweries food is optional. However, there is rarely an option for food at JBC, perhaps due to Pennsylvania's arcane and antiquated laws regulating food and drink consumption and licensing. Posts on Facebook and Instagram, however, alert the clientele to food trucks, live music, and special events like "bacon bingo", where winners take home the bacon. So as long as you come to enjoy a drink, rather than expecting a meal, want to try a few styles to find the one that meets your tastes, and aren't expecting extremely low prices for low-quality corporate lager, it's definitely worth stepping in to Juniata Brewing Company for a flight, a full pour, a growler to take home, or cans of the varieties they keep in stock. People like this place, its laid-back atmosphere, and outdoor seating and its scheduled events. You probably will, too. It's also Huntingdon's only craft brewery, so drop in and help them grow...and encourage them to carbonate.
