Check your bills! I left a cash tip, then later noticed gratuity was also added to the receipt without being clearly disclosed. That feels like predatory double charging. Customers should review their bill carefully before paying here. read more

Went back to this place so other family members could try it out. The service took a while but the food tasted good. Saturday was a steamer special for $12 so some in our party ordered that. In addition we ordered French Sip sandwich with kettle chips (really good), Fried Catfish sandwich with sweet potato fries (heard it was a hit), half pound burger with yummy fries, chicken wings with a dry rub and fried pickle chips (least favorite item). Overall, a good meal was had by all. They have outdoor seating but we sat inside. Good thing since it began to rain later on and people came running in. read more

Came here for a dinner and some brews. They have regular live music as well and we were lucky enough to be there while it was going on. Good selection of tap beer and I had the wing special which was tasty and a good deal. Had a very friendly waitress. Would definitely recommend, especially on Wednesday for wings and live music. read more

We ordered for pickup which was quick but did include an automatic gratuity. We got garlic parmesan wings which were really good and came with some celery. They weren't too saucy. The baby back ribs were extremely saucy which is generally fine, but they were piled on top of the fries, making them a soggy mess. Ketchup was available on request, but that was before I knew what a mush pile the fries would be. It seems for the extra gratuity fee, a separate box would not have been unreasonable. The food was overall decent and perhaps dine in would make the experience better. read more

Gem and Keystone's patio was perfect for our large group social. Nice server (she took our group photo) took all our drink orders fairly promptly. Beers are all made at Shawnee brewery on premise and are very good. Nice cocktail options. Food orders included cat fish (that fried cat fish with whipped sweets looked best to me) vegetarian chili, wings, tavern burgers, salads. All decent tavern fare. Server so attentive to all in our big group. Lovely spring evening and gorgeous setting to celebrate each other. Cheers to Gem and Keystone for ensuring our pleasant evening of fun and laughter. read more

The food and service were excellent! Clean, tidy, and a very friendly staff! Reasonable prices too!

The seasonal drinks were amazing. The French Onion Soup, definitely a favorite, was very flavorful ~ done to perfection. The catfish sandwich with apple jicama and Thai chili sauce on a brioche bun was delicious. It would be hard to try something new when it was already the perfect meal. SECOND VISIT: since the first was a success! I craved that French onion soup again, but challenged myself to try the soup special, beef lentil. It did not disappoint. It was very flavorful. My friend and I shared the Monday night empanada special. Forewarning, the salsa was hot, but Omgosh the flavors were amazing. I had a wing craving and decided the spicy maple garlic was going to be the perfect adventure. They were tasty too! My friend tried the beef pot pie and it did not disappoint. This restaurant is definitely a plus for our trip. read more

I had wings that were on special and my friend had the chicken pot pie with a crust on it. The wings were good but the pot pie was really good. Service was great, attentive and very pleasant and personable. They had live music and he was excellent. All in all a really good night. I should have taken a picture of the pot pie read more

we went here while visiting the Poconos with a group of friends. it was a cute little restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. We sat inside.Drinks were good, staff were friendly. We each ordered an entree. I had the fish and chips which had good Cole slaw, fries, and the tartar sauce was good.The fish was underseasoned but still good. My husband had the buffalo mac and cheese, which was a large portion and he liked it. The Mac and cheese was underseasoned as well. read more

The food here was absolutely phenomenal, possibly the best I've ever been served and eaten. The baby back ribs simply fell off the bone and the Wings with buffalo ranch sauce were indescribable. And the fries were so amazing I didn't even need sauce to enjoy them fully, truly, some of the most life changing food I've ever had. I have never enjoyed my food so much ever before. 5 stars for the food alone, wonderful read more

Another visit to one of my favorite eateries in the Poconos. My groups french onion soup was tasty however I'm used to the soup reaching the rim of the crock and the cheese melts over the rim. My cheesesteak was delicious however I needed some extra cheese sauce for my cheesesteak. Now for the disappointment,my wife catfish sandwich was terrible according to my wife. The sandwich was soggy, the fish was not crispy and it fell apart when my wife cut it in half.Her sweet potato fries and my grandson's sweet potato fries were cold and my onion rings which I love here were undercooked. I hated our meals weren't up to our usual standards here. I hope it was just a fluke tonight. our server Justin was excellent and the young lady who kept returning to see if she could clear away any unused plates. Eat outside on the last day of summer was so surreal , good bye summer hello PSL(pumpkin spice latte). read more

Between the 4 of us over 2 dinners (Especially today, valentines when they were packed) on. Monday and tonight we all ha a polenta special, a side salad, the chicken cheesesteak, fish and chips, gnocchi, Beef Shoulder filet x2) and Monday's soup of the day (which was a beef and ancient grains soup). oh and spicy pork empanada and the fried catfish. The only nitpicks we had were the empanada wasn't spicy, the catfish didn't have its sauce (and the accompanying brussels needed balsamic). But the last 2 are moot because the kitchen was slammed tonight 2/14/24. All of the food was lovely, just an FYI to my fellow out of towners that any labeled spicy, isn't. And, they'll probably define ancient grains for you (I didn't know we looked that white! Is this area that white?). The latter was more funny than anything. they were slammed tonight for valentines, which is understandable, but the service was super friendly and attentive and the ambiance, which had a very lodge-like feel (a nice accent after each day of skiing). The service point also is true for Monday. The food is incredible and very flavorful. Definitely come here if you're staying anywhere nearby. read more

Their ad at Shawnee Ski Area for a free beer persuaded me to swing by with my kids after a day on the slopes, and we were all glad we did. While we hadn't made reservations, we were quickly seated in the downstairs dining room, which had a cozy, lodge-like feel to it. We started with steamed clams, which were served in a delicious, hearty broth I wanted to drink out of the bowl. We ordered baby back ribs, which were so tender the meat fell off the bones, two cheeseburgers, which were big and tasty, and chicken fingers, and were large and flavorful enough to appease our picky eater. While it wasn't the most economical food option in the area, everyone left happy! read more

Great, convenient spot to visit after a day on the slopes. Chili was good. Wings were too, though I probably wouldn't get the parmesan garlic flavor again, I'd prefer more kick. Soft pretzels hit the spot. Service was good and we had no complaints. read more

Solid spot neat the NJ/Penn border. The staff is incredibly friendly and outside views are truly ideal for a serene chill vibe with a burger and beer. We got a salad and burger and they were both decent. Though good, the burger was a bit of a letdown. Their staple burger with blue cheese which was layered with too many toppings the bun got soggy and fell apart in minutes. I also understand that blue cheese is a strong flavor but it shouldn't overpower the actual taste of what you're paying for (the meat!). Overall, super casual nice spot, but nothing to go crazy for. read more

My family and friends of mine just ate at this restaurant. We arrived around 740 and it took over 1 hour and 10 mins to get our meal. We had 5 children in our party and they gave us no warning of the time nor did they offer anything for the kids to snack on. All we got was we are doing the best we can. When our meal did come one of the meals did not arrive while another arrived very undercooked. As you can see from the attached picture the medium steak was way undercooked. And to make matters worse this was for an 8 year old who just wanted a steak as a celebration meal. read more

Food was good , beer was good! Local family spot that was nice to just talk with my family and eat and not feel all rushed!!

Nice dinner and drinks on the deck! Logan was a fabulous wait staff! The outdoor music was pleasant, but really too loud. We came for an early dinner to talk, but it was difficult. Maybe the management could tune it down until evening, and maybe crank it later for the party crowd. Please. We tried the French Onion soup, chili, pulled pork sandwich, and cheese steak. Food was yummy. The bowl of chili did not come with any bread (???) - bread was $3 extra (seriously, that's dumb). All three of had the very tasty Rhubarb berry crumble with vanilla ice cream for dessert. Would return. read more

3 stars for a good location outside the Shawnee golf course with a lovely deck & plenty of parking. Service was very good & they were on top of keeping everything clean. The Pinot Noir wine was very good & a great pour. Food was average - my wings had siracha sauce in the glaze that I could hardly taste it plus they weren't crispy. The size of the wings were good. Coleslaw was very bland & needed seasonings & goodies in it. Cheesesteak sandwich was pretty good but needed a lot more cheese & seasoning. My husband loved the mashed potatoes. This place needs to amp up their food in order to get another star. They should work on adding more flavor to their items - they are off to a good start but needs improvement. I would not rush back. read more

Nice spot. I went for lunch feeling extremely underdressed in my workout clothes. Needless to say I stayed anyway. My friend and I shared a platter of nachos which was more than enough for the two of us and it was absolutely delicious the nachos were lightly seasoned not salted but flavorful the salsa was delicious the jalapeños spicy. Everything was fresh. The unsweetened iced tea was magnificent. Thank you!! read more

I stopped in after a round of golf for an early dinner. Nothing bad to say about the dinner. I ended up getting the burger with the blue cheese smothered on it. I would have preferred that it wasn't a sauce but it was decent. They have a nice selection of local beers. The place is pretty solid and they have different levels for seating which is cool. My bartender was good and made well on an error. I would like to try more things in the future read more

I'm giving Sports Arena a low rating due to the inappropriate behavior of the owner. I was there for my son's friend's birthday party. Since the room was crowded, I stepped outside to take care of some business. While I was busy, the owner interrupted me and abruptly asked, "Do you think it's hot in here?" I replied that I was in the middle of something, but he continued to push for an answer. The exchange felt unnecessary and uncomfortable. I was surprised to find out he was the owner. As someone running the place, he should respect guests' boundaries and not insert himself into private moments. People should be able to enjoy events without being disturbed if they're clearly minding their own business. read more

Awesome beverages and burgers! We went for lunch in June and service was slow because there was only one server but we didn't mind because the views were scenic sitting out on the porch. We had the hummus and a salad and a impossible burger. He loved the burger so much, we came again the next day! What a "gem" in the area!!! read more

I came here on a Saturday afternoon for a date with my boyfriend. While outside the weather changed and it started raining a bit. The umbrellas helped shield us and all was well. I ordered a mojito and it was pretty good. For food, I got their Buffalo chicken mac n cheese and it was sooo good! I definitely recommend it. My boyfriend got a chicken grilled cheese sandwich. He inhaled it so I'll assume he liked it. Nice restaurant and nice view when seated on patio. read more

I visited here twice over the last week - the first time was to check out the beers on tap (most of them from the local ShawneeCraft Brewing Company) and the beers were good and the staff was great. The offered tastings of the local beer and the glass sizes were generous for the $2-$3 brews. I wound up trying them all and not a bad beer in the lot! Stop in any time for a drink, 5 stars there. I came back later in the week for dinner and brought my extended family. We had the open faced roast beef sandwich, BBQ ribs, wings, and the barbecue quesidillas. The food was a mixed lot tending toward meh. The roast beef sandwich was OK, but was just plopped on two big peices of white bread. Could have been toasted or changed up a bit. Mashed potatoes OK. Both me and the wife tried the ribs and got a very heavy alcohol-like aftertast, similar to when you add in some red wine and don't reduce it enough. It was bad enough for me not to want to steal any ribs off her plate which is always a bad sign. The wings were the high point of the meal for me, a mix of BBQ and spicy that was extremely good - everyone liked them. You might not if you have trouble with spice, but they were great. The quesedilla - mistakes were made. Both me and the family member that tried it thought it was pretty horrible. The BBQ taste was cloying and it was not good, most of it got left on the plate. Kid's spaghetti and french fries were good, per my 5 year old. The ambiance and decor were nice, staff was pleasant, no problems with the service but for the price you paid for the food ($90 with 3 beers) and the taste of the food, a solid 3 stars. Maybe if you know what is good you could do 4 stars, but I wouldn't roll the dice and pay the price. Stick with the bar and the wings! read more
