Mike our server, was very friendly, attentive and efficient. He has a great personality and is a single dad and a hard worker. My husband and I have a particular affinity for hard-working servers as we used to be them. We used to be the ones giving up all of our holidays to wait on others, but now we're finally benefitting from the fruits of our efforts and enjoying restaurants on holidays as customers & not servers. We both opted to get the Filet Oscar! First though was The Ststion salad with mandarins, strawberries, slivered almonds on spring mix with mango dressing. We enjoyed it so much. The chunks of sweet highest quality crab meat over perfectly cooked 8 ounce filet, Medium, was as good as it gets. The hollandaise sauce was the best I've ever had- rich, tasty and I could taste the lemon in it too- I loved it! We also got dessert! The towering chocolate cake and cream puff! I cannot wait to enjoy my leftovers! The Station has always done wonderful holidays. Valentines is no exception with tables bedecked with lovely flowers and glittery heart in a mini vase. The restaurant also provided a beautiful long stemmed rose. John and Mel run a great business and we are very happy to support them and this wonderful business. Awesome all around!

We arrived a little ahead of time but were greeted and seated. We had a group of 4 and we ordered our drinks first they have a full bar and do run speciality drinks like my wife's choice of a Blue Christmas Martini the others at the table ordered wines and beer. Our server Steve is one of the most professional waitpersons we have ever had the privilege of having serve our table of 4. My wife & BIL ordered the OSCAR* with the Charbroiled Salmon topped with Lump Crab & Asparagus and topped finished with a Hollandaise Sauce. My SIL ordered the Crab Cakes these Chef made speciality are loaded with lump crab. I o decided on the Faroe Island Salmon grilled Faroe Island Salmon finished with a Strawberry Glaze and topped with toasted almonds. I found this combination uniquely flavored and I paired it with a Pino Grigio.

We camp near Tamaqua and came across this gem this year. We've traveled to the cat cafe in…read moreWilkes-Barre so we had an idea of what this is like. The owner was very welcoming. The coffee selection was decent for a cat cafe with a big selection of flavor syrups to add to your drink. The little gift shop was fairly priced and had a lot of unique things. I loved the little black cat mascot, as we have a few furry voids at home. There was about 16 cats in the room when we went on a Saturday afternoon. You can tell they are well taken care of and that the staff cleans very frequently in there. With the 3 of us and the other family we had enough room that we didn't feel jammed in. There was one orange cutie that kept trying to knock my Niece's drink off the windowsill, and a precious long haired grey cat that claimed my husband's lap for the last half of the hour. We were given wet treat tubes to feed them which all the cats went nuts for and there were plenty of feather wands and toys for us to interact with the ones who wanted to play. The coal theme plays in perfectly to the area and the wagon appears to be the hang out area for the cats. It was a fun experience we plan to do again soon. It's a great cause (socializing and getting cats adopted) and the owner is obviously passionate about the mission.

1/29/23 I had no idea this business was even here! I found a promotional write up when I was…read moreenjoying brunch at The Station. Kim and Ron are the owners of this very friendly business. Their goal is to find homes for these adorable felines and so far have placed 24 cats into forever homes in just three months. As Ron mentioned, you don't do this kind of business to get rich. I think it's more of a vocation. There is coffee and packaged treats available for sale. Not only that but a selection of T shirts, and fun toys for your favorite feline. The real stars here are the wonderful cats. I personally love how the owners tied in the Coal Region history into this modern forward thinking (in all the right ways) business. You will sign a waiver to enter (customary) the cat area. It is themed with all things Coal, like a mine decoration, pick axe and even a "coal wagon" delivery wagon (the cats seem to love it). We stopped by in passing but you may reserve time online. The number of people permitted is six maximum. The only other such cafe I knew of was in Philadelphia. I believe thanks to Covid and lockdowns that went under. The owners are enthusiastic about helping animals and customers visiting. Please support this incredible business and bring your little ones and friends to enjoy these sweet creatures. I did not get pictures of the entrance room but it is organized and colorful.

I am a HUGE breakfast/brunch guy and so whenever I get the chance I hit a new grubbery. Well, this morning we hit WPD - a little diner on Penn Drive. It was my mom, my nephew and myself. There's plenty of parking. The place is clean. The prices are very reasonable. The service was very good!! The server was quick and polite and funny and didn't seem like she hated her job as you often see in many restaurant. The menu is simple - which ain't a bad thing. I will give a positive critique - the omelette's should be cooked a little softer. Mine was well done which isn't the best way to serve an omelette unless asked by the customer. I ordered the... All Meat Omelette and added provolone cheese. I The Pumpkin Pancakes - WOW!!! Yummy. The coffee is without a doubt THE BEST COFFEE I've had in any restaurant in a long time. And I want to add I am a huge coffee drinker as are my mother and my nephew. The ambience is very apropos. Everyone was nice and friendly. I think the cooks came out of the kitchen a few times. It would've been nice had they introduced themselves. We ordered hot links, bacon, hash browns, toast, and of course eggs - scrambled and over easy. All in all it was a very enjoyable experience. This is a no frills kinda place so if you're looking for that in your "wow" - this ain't the place. But, if you're looking for a decent meal at a decent price with friendly service and a clean environment...THIS IS THE PLACE! Happy grubbing!

We both actually enjoyed our food. I've never had the chicken bowl before... Anywhere! It was simply delicious, . KINSLEY was so kind and helpful! She recommended the angel food cake with black cherries. The way she described it didn't really sounded wonderful. She said it was made in the house and she also mention that the rice pudding was made in the house. So we ordered both and tried each other's and liked it. We got to sit in a nice big booth and there is a lot of seating! Everything's nice and tidy! Lots of hard-working staff!! so friendly! Of course, we had the gift shop on our way out the door!! I look forward to coming back again!!

There are certain places that I've been to down the road in Tamaqua we are the service was so nasty. I'll never go back there again. I don't care how good their pizza is anyway, but back to how wonderful this place is. We were skeptical at first, but it really grew on us. Also, the Caesar salads are killer.
