Ava was an outstanding server! She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. She checked in often without being overbearing, kept our drinks full, and had a great attitude the entire time. Her excellent customer service made our visit even more enjoyable. If you're dining at PJ Whelihan's, I definitely recommend asking for Ava. She truly went above and beyond to make our experience a great one. Five stars! read more

My go-to Wing Night spot. Such a good deal but get there early. Almost always a wait but I've never waited longer than 30 minutes. Where there was a wait was at the bar. The bartenders, no matter what time of day or if there's a shift change, are so lax. EACH TIME, I've had to flag them down. And you would think that service at the bar would be expedited, it has never been. In any case, I enjoy the sports bar feel esp when there is a good game playing. The food is yummy. My 2nd favorite wings in the Valley. Try the Spicy Peach BBQ. It's the best! read more

OK. Let's start with the positive. The place has tons of TVs and it really has a good vibe. 4 stars. The food: I got the buffalo chicken wrap with the special peach chutney and their world famous fries (for takeout) The wrap was good with a decent amount of chicken. The fries were definitely underwhelming. 3 stars Now let's talk about the service. I arrived on a Thursday afternoon around 4 PM, not too busy and I sat at the bar. I was attended to shortly after sitting down, asked for the drink menu and a glass of water, both which I got quickly. I then sat there for another 13 minutes, waiting for her to come back for my drink order. I counted 10 instances where other servers walked past me. When she finally came back, she apologized stating she had been stuck at the serving bar(?). (And I did see that she stopped and chatted with a colleague before coming my way). I found it odd that other servers were able to attend to my check, but not my drink? Now let's talk about the takeout. The bag was dropped off and put it over to the side to finish my drink before leaving. Shortly afterwards, another server came over and grabbed my bag and said my order was mixed up with another lady (who opened the bag and saw she had my food). The server promised me that she didn't touch it and switched out our bags. Deciding to live on the edge, I left. When I got back to the hotel, I had my food, but no utensils nor ketchup for the fries. 0 Stars I see this place has 3.5 stars, but I cannot in good conscience give anything more than a 2. I am really disappointed as it's across the parking lot from where I am staying and I would've gone back there at least two more times. Hopefully others will have better luck read more

i love pjs but they have definitely down sized the menu. There used to be way more. The wings are always promising. The downsize in menu is a tad disappointing though. However, It's a great sports bar with great drinks and it's always fun to go on game days. The staff is always great too. read more

P.J. Whelihan's Pub + Restaurant - Bethlehem - Loaded House Nachos and wings - Sports Bars Near Me - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania

P.J. Whelihan's Pub + Restaurant is a sports bar chain that is known for their jumbo wings. This location can be found on High Point Blvd. in Bethlehem. This establishment has been inconsistent over the years, so I never know what to expect. Fortunately, my last visit was a good one. I ordered my usual; PJs famous wings and fries. The wings were huge, crispy, and delicious. I ordered sweet chili this time around, but also love hot-n-honey and mango habanero. The fries are seasoned with old bay and served with a cup of American cheese sauce. So good! My only complaint is the fries could of been hotter. PJs has indoor and outdoor seating. Pickup and delivery are both available. Happy hour - Mon - Fri from 4 to 6PM. Wing night - Tue from 3 to 10PM (50% off). Sweet Chili Famous Wings - 8.8 PJs Famous Fries - 8.2 Food - 8.5 Service - 8.1 Value - 8.1 Restaurant score - 82 read more

Big birthday celebration that would have been better at home. This place seemed a little busy this night but we were seated quickly. I order wings and a vodka lemonade, looking for something different. Well, I got it seemed like the vodka evaporated before it got to the table. Well got my wings which were real good and a decent size. The blue cheese was definitely sub par and tasted metallic to me. I got a whooping 2 pcs of celery for 10 wings, guess they didn't get their order. After I finished the weak lemonade I ordered a gin and tonic, made it a double. Well, it had tonic and lime but couldn't taste the gin. I should just had a seltzer. Great attentive service but the bar needs help spilling a little more liquor in the glass. read more

The atmosphere is great and bartenders are attentive and friendly. Maicy, Jordan and Rachel are the best.

DONT GO ON TUESDAY HALF WINGS.......party of 5 waiting almost about an hour and a half just for our food....our server was super nice but food suckedd!! read more

Bartenders are great..especially Macy! They really need to buy the MLB package. Pretty sad they dont have it...smh

Went to P. J. Whelihan's and n a Wednesday evening to have some of their world famous wings. The place was packed and very loud. I asked about a table and was told about 20 minutes or so. I figured because it was so busy, that service might be slow also. Not wanting to wait too long, I asked about placing a takeout order. The hostess said it would take about 15 minutes. I ordered 10 wings and pretzel bites to go. After waiting around half an hour, my order came out. I got home in about 15 minutes so the food was still warm. I tried a pretzel bite and it was over-cooked and hard with almost no salt. I ate 3 or 4 before giving up. Then I tried the wings. The chicken was cooked well but the breading was so thick and covered in too much sauce. Overall not good. I spent the next 10 minutes peeling off the breading so I could eat the chicken. I'm pretty disappointed in their famous wings read more

Food is usually good. Today I left without getting food because the bartenders were busy socializing then coming back to me. Literally 15 min of me sitting there and no one asked if I would like to order. It's not the first time this happened here. read more

So I'm working out of town did some searching on the web for local places to eat this place is amazing. The service was great. The food was great. The atmosphere was great. I could find nothing to complain about. My waitress was fantastic very friendly and prompt food came out hot and in a short period of time. This place reminds me of a sports bar back at home and I felt at home. read more

this is one of my favorite places to watch sports. the bartenders are fantastic, in particular, Macey. always so attentive. I am disappointed they did not get the mlb package this year. I enjoyed my lunches there and being able to watch several games at a time. Not sure where else I can find that in the valley. read more

It is standard PJs. Maybe I've just become too familiar with the place or, maybe the food isn't quite as good as it used to be. The ambience is always the same, lots of TVs tuned to decent sports shows. I'm sure my experience at this particular location is an outlier, but we had a horrible waitress. We saw her infrequently, everything was slow, and just the whole experience was sucky. It's not common for a PJs so maybe it was just one bad experience. read more

I'm beyond disgusted ! This was in my harvest salad! Not only did they mess up my order, but then they served me this! PJ Whelihan, you did me dirty! 11/29/2024 read more

This was an unexpected find and a phenomenal experience. The food is great. The beer menu is large and has some offerings I really appreciated such as the Delirium Tremens. The fifth star comes from the staff. We had such a wonderful and genuine server. It was one of those too long intervals since the last meal that leaves me indecisive but I am so happy I trusted the discretion of Kelsey. Not just what to get but how to have it. She was awesome to my son. Just awesome. Thank you. I am hoping to get back down again relatively soon. This was a great place to see the game. The background music level was great. Everyone else who we dealt with in the restaurant was spectacular too. This is a sport bar you can comfortably bring your kids to. It is tasteful. read more

Wings are tasty and beer selection is quality. Many local selections. The service was satisfactory but friendly. The other food is as expected for a restaurant of this type. A bit expensive for the level of taste and plastic basement style service. Great set of TVs to watch live sports and fun atmosphere. Beer and sports good. Food not great. read more

Got the wicked chicken cheesesteak earlier this afternoon for takeout. It was good, but 5 hrs later I'm sick. Dry heaving, got the chills, the Hershey squirts, and been throwing up for close to an hour. I can't even keep water down. I hope I don't have salmonella poisoning. I feel freakin awful. I'm curled up in a ball on my bathroom floor. read more

The single star is for the St Patrick's Day piper piping his Hibernian heart out. He knew his stuff, which is more than I can say for the waitress, whichever bartender made my "cosmo" and whoever overcooked my salmon to the point of menopausal dryness. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. I ordered the salmon entree (which ostensibly came with broccoli and jasmine rice) AND an additional basket of fries (I was starving). The salmon came with fries *in lieu of* the rice and veggie side. No cutlery, no napkins. Just a serrated knife. We asked a nearby waitress for cutlery and she unceremoniously dumped two forks on our table. No napkins. Nice. I'll just wipe my mouth with my sleeves. We good. The elderflower cosmo cocktail was yuck. Just imagine if I HAD taken up the waitress' offer to have it dyed green (who knows? It might have improved the taste). It was supposed to include fresh lime juice and a lime garnish - I can assure you, there was not a single fresh lime anywhere near my drink. Maybe a bar-spoon of Roses lime cordial. Maybe. It's an American sports bar, so please don't call it a pub. It's also never going to improve, or change it's ways. No-one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence - or taste - of the average punter. But if you are even half way discerning, stay away from this toilet read more

All around great! Good service and good food. Left alone to enjoy our meal. Always good food and a realized atmosphere.

The food is always fresh and full of flavor!! Sandwiches that have turkey in them is roasted not lunch meat. They also have lower food calorie items which is nice. Service is top notch!!! Ambiance is good. Many options for seating which is good. read more

Stopped in with a small group and was able to meet everyone's tastes. We had someone looking for a gluten-free/gluten-light menu, a few looking for some good craft brews, and someone looking for a great steak and a Miller High Life. We had a table with appetizers, salads, burgers, steaks and chicken and nothing left on the plates when we were done. We liked dessert but no one had room. All were happy and full when we left and would gladly come back. Our service was prompt and we will all be back next time we are in town! read more

First off it's not a pub. It's an American traditional bar. I didn't have too high hopes for an old fashioned but the bar tender said she makes a good one. Not sure where they have had an old fashioned before but that was not an old fashioned. I asked for a makers mark old fashioned. And it came with a whole slice of orange lots of crushed ice and a maraschino cherry. Not how a true old fashions should be served. I didn't think much of it because of where we were so I was expecting to pay around $6 or $7 which I would have been ok with. We got the bill and it was $16 a drink! $16! If you go to some of the best restaurants in the world it's only $15-25. Not sure why it was so much just being a very basic mediocre drink. I would pay $25 a drink all day long if it was amazing but this was far from it. And after we expressed our disappointment with the price being we didn't know how much it was going to cost they didn't do anything to try and make it right. For food I got the Cheese Burger which was again pretty basic. Good but basic. Sweet potato fried were really good however. Overall disappointed for the price gouging. I travel around the world for a living and eat at the best restaurants in the world. Once you have had good quality food and drinks you know when it's a good deal and when it is not. read more

Staying at a hotel next to this restaurant and needed a place to get dinner. We were pretty surprised at how big it was and how busy. We waited about 29 minutes for a table. the staff was really friendly. We had Shocktop beers that were on special all day for $4. We had boneless and traditional wings that were great and a crispy Brussel sprout appetizer. That was amazing. I wanted the whole dish for Myself ! We all had great burgers! Definitely would go back for More. Oh and how could I forget the brownie sundae. Mmmm good read more

We just left wing night after an awesome meal with a fantastic server, Danielle. She was so personable and helpful. Really impressed with her as we've had countless meals here and the service isn't always stellar. Wings are still delicious and bigger than the average wing at other wing nights. Our toddler loved the chicken tenders and ate nearly all of them! Definitely hoping wing nights come back for good!! read more

Recently when there with my family and friends for lunch right before the new year. I hadn't dined in at PJ's in a while. The experience is just like a remember. Friendly staff and good food. We brought my 1 year old daughter and she enjoyed the stairs that she could walk up and down while waiting for our food. The kids meal was great price for what you get. A choice of main course, side and dessert. My friends had never been there before but they enjoyed the food and the beer list. read more

It was very loud. Hard to hear the person across the table. My granddaughters Mac and cheese was half burnt. Unable to get a fork through. I ordered a southwest pano with avocado. I got a sweet chili panini.skimpy on the sauces. Very disappointed read more

Slightly above Average overall. Our server was well above average all throughout the night. She even comped the fries for a kitchen mishap. I got 10 wings - 5 inferno and 5 hot. They were pretty good. The infernos were not that hot but tasty. I was surprised at how few TV's had the World Series on. It's not like the Philly teams were playing. read more

Want a salad ? Great salads. However the crab cakes were tasteless & grossly undercooked. Get an unsweetened ice tea & want to sweeten it yourself. Hopefully you packed it. None on the table & it's like pulling teeth to get any. Guinness on tap was good. Fish & chips , ok. Overcooked. French fries good with Ketchup. Overall lackluster & disappointing. read more

The food was not the greatest because the bun didn't toast, the chicken didn't cook and no condiments such as ketchup to eat the fries.
