Dana and I got over to the Johnstown Reptile Expo to get food for Monty the Python so we stopped to fetch some food for ourselves. We stopped for lunch at a place that was a regular fir the 6 months that I lived in Johnstown, PA. The Haven sits across the street from the old Atlantic Broadband call center in Southmont and is known for their gargantuan sandwiches, like their rueben that's as big as a takeout box. But you know what we were there for... Brrrrgrrrs! I got the Bacon bluecheese swiss burger and Dana ordered up the carolina burger (hold the carolina - meaning no bbq sauce or cheese) but with double coleslaw. The Haven gets it right! Just like I remember! The burger patties are seasoned and cooked just right, laying on the perfectly soft bun. the blue cheese "sauce" on mine mixes with the swiss cheese to make the most interestingly awesome bitter and stinky mix then picked up by the smokey crisp bacon. The only description i got from Dana was "YUM!" another winner of a burger place! read more

Just had the worst experience I have ever had at The Haven. When my wife and I arrived, Sunday, 4:30 PM, there seemed to be one young lady taking orders, bussing tables and bringing drinks. My wife and I ordered dinner and waited. Approximately 30 minutes later our food arrived. My Reuben was cold enough to be considered as ice cream. The onion rings were so over cooked that they crumbled when you bit into it. I am still waiting for the server to bring the cole slaw that she said she would bring right away. My wife's pizza was cut through, if you tried to pick up a slice you got the whole pie. When I mentioned this to the server, she couldn't have cared less. This is one of the few times that I have left a bar/restaurant without tipping. It will be a long time before my wife and I return. read more

The food was not that great. I got sick to mine stomach. When me and my family walked in all we got was stares for the first 5 minutes. I did see a few of my kind they were probably regulars! By the stares they knew we were not from there! We ask the waitress Kennedy how was the sandwich The Haven it was recommended to me. She said out of her own mouth the sandwich was So Huge that she literally makes 3 sandwiches out of one! Will need less to say I got it and it was as flat as a piece of bread. So just wondering why I got the short end off the stick! I will never go back or recommend it to people of color! Terrible!! read more

My husband and I visit Johnstown often and tis has always been a convenient place to eat. the food is passable, expect for the meal we ordered last week. this was what we got: A bacon cheeseburger with fires, NO bacon , not cooked and cold limp fries. Steak salad, wilted produce, about 6 fires thrown in and the meat was cold. When we called back to give feedback to the manager, he hun up on mu husband ! They lost us as customers. read more

Always good!!!! Wings yes!!! Beer cold yesss!!!! Best prices!!! Hit up the happy hour!!! Tellem Miami Lou said he recommends this spot. Also open late night. read more

Just bought two steak salads and two sodas from here $34.41 Both salads contained 4 French fries each, 4 slices of green pepper each, 3 cucumber slices each and 3 cherry tomatoes each. And the steak was laid on top with slices in it but not cut into strips, and if there was cheese on it I couldn't find it. read more

The owner is very rude. Had a mix up on a take out order. Called to let them know that what I got wasn't what I ordered and was told that it wasn't his problem that it was Grubhub's fault. When I tried to question why he hung up on me. Apparently they don't value their customers. I used to give them a lot of business but not anymore. read more

The Haven has AWESOME food. Everything I have eaten there has been delicious! Go and experience the food!!

For a local bar and bar food this is our go to place. From burgers to wings to wraps we love it all. The beer battered fries are our favorite always with ranch dressing. We typically always have the same waitress who is so sweet and friendly. The service is quick unless they are really busy, then you wait. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because we rarely go when it's actually "clean" there is always a lot of tables that need bused and wiped down. However, if you're in town and looking for something good I highly recommend the haven. We will continue to come back! read more

I placed an order on over the weekend. Of the three burgers, all three were incorrect. One of them was missing the top bun. Every order of fries were missing. Tried calling over a period of two days to give them a chance to fix their mistakes and they never answered the phone. Last time I'm ordering from them. read more

The food and service were excellent. We had everything from the specialty sandwiches to tacos to the salads and all had large portions and were very good. We were in town for a couple weeks for work and I wish we had found it sooner since it was only a couple miles from the job. I can't say anything about late night as we went here for lunch. read more

i have ordered pick up 7 times 5 times the order was wrong. Pizza wrong thickness and two of three toppings were wrong. different employee almost every time you go in. Want great food, great atmosphere and great service go to Jake's in the mall, it is supposed to be owned by his brother. Run like a real business Thomas M.. read more

This place is a fun meeting place for weekends or an after work cocktail. But the food here is hit ir miss. Much more on the miss side. They have a hefty menu with typical barfood and some unique sandwiches The wings are generally good if you eat in. The buffalo hot sauce tasty but the wings were baby sized today. My brother got tge reuben. It was Huge!!! Could easily feed a family. Lots of tasty corned beef. And the thick homemade rye was a big hit!!! The sandwich went south bc of way too much thousand island dressing. It was way too sweet. And turned the toasted rye into Goo!!!!! The homemade potato Chips are generally good with the right amount of ranch seasoning. The fresh cut fries were way overcooked. They were crispy like potato chips themselves. I love the fact they have murphys stout on tap. And a nice feature is they have a six pack shop in back with sone prertty tasty selections. read more

The haven use to be our go to place on a Friday night. Tonight was the last straw. My wife and I arrived at 730pm, the dining room had plenty of seats. We sat ourselves as usual, after 10 minutes a waitress asked if we have been helped. The answer was no so ordered 2 drinks when returned the drinks we ordered food. We waited 45 minutes before asking where our food was? The response was the kitchen misplaced our ordered. They are going to start it now. We said don't bother and walked out. Very very disappointed read more

As a Buffalo NY resident I had to try the wings here, and in my unbiased opinion these were top 5 wings I've ever had. I ordered the black/gold and the sauce/bbq crisp was not only perfect, but the wings themselves were the best quality you can get. 10/10 would go out of my way to come back here again. read more

Good was decent but not sure why someonewho was not on payroll was helping us. Perhaps it is all the.. friendly Johnstown people or they were just short staffed on my visit. Wings were pretty decent but not the best ever. Looks like a solid place to go for drinks. Please allow the men's room to lock or put up a divider if someone needs to chop a deuce. This is an embarrassment to this place read more

The food here is OK. The wings were a bit under cooked and the burger was a little dry. There was also way too much meat vs. topping ratio. read more

Great Reuben sandwiches and a friendly atmosphere. A hidden gem! This is better than the average bar food fare. Excellent sandwich and HUGE! read more

I have been here a few times and each time has been a success. With a group of 8+, everyone was satisfied and easily ordered drinks in a timely manner. When only two of us dine in, the service is even better. The wings are crispy and have great flavor, the fresh cut fries are one of my favorite menu items, and the baked Italian on homemade bread is the best in town. Draught beer is always ICE cold and fresh. One of our go-to's for bar food and cold beers. read more

Ok, the food was amazing and the bartender was on point!!! She was so attentive and sweet! Love this place!

Food was ok but service was terrible. 6 of us, and all got food at different times. I got my meal and after I ate it my salad arrived. The worst was our Nacho appetizer arrived as we were putting our coats on to leave. read more

The service was as excellent as the food. Will be going there more often. The Chunk of Fish on my sandwich could feed two people. LoadeD fries are a must. My wife has a very delicious steak hoagie. Friendly atmosphere here... read more

The food is decent, but service can be sketchy. They forgot to put my order in until I arrived, and then instead of apologizing or offering a discount, they just told me to sit and wait. Frustrating, at best. read more

First time here, the food was really good. I got the Rachel half size and thank goodness - the half size was enough to feed me to meals. My husband got the parmesan chicken sandwich he said it was good but a little jealous by the difference in sizes. They make their own bread and it is soooooo yummy. Nice bar section && family side! read more

We have been to the Haven no less than a dozen times. The last time we went will be our last. The service is usually subpar. The waiters and waitresses have always been nice to us, but are clearly overwhelmed. Most seem to wait the entire dining area and wait the bar. The food is hit and miss, but the last few times were really bad. When we first started going there a few years ago the food was consistently good, but over time it seems to be consistently poor quality. Pros: The beer battered fries are always awesome. Cons: Understaffed and random quality of food. I have recommend a few friends to the haven and they had poor experiences there also. read more

This is absolutely my favorite place for burgers in Johnstown. Nice bar, nice wait staff, always a pleasure.

We ate in the bar area on a weeknight. It worked for three adults and two teenagers. The prices are good and my burger was delicious. It was cooked perfectly, medium-rare - the portions were significant enough to fill me up. One of our party had the Reuben. It was exceptionally large. This is a point of pride for the Haven. I had a taste and was not disappointed. Of special note is the batter fried cauliflower - everyone at the table shared an order. Next time two orders. The beer selection was just OK - it's a classic, family-eat-in bar with better than average food - which works perfectly for me. read more

Went to The Haven based on a recommendation from my hotel front desk and the reviews on Yelp. The service was below average, as were the wings and the french dip (both despite other reviews on Yelp). I got the feeling this place might be a local favorite, or a good watering hole to grab a beer and watch a game but I would not return for the food. read more

Me and my friend have been to the Haven several times. In my opinion, this is the best bar food in Johnstown. Their portions are huge; I don't know how they make any money! The food is delicious! - I've had the reuben, it's great (I personally don't like sourkraut, so I didn't have it). - My friend had the Rachel, bought a whole one, and she said it was very good and ate the whole thing over a 3 day period. Very big. Not sure what's in it. - My favorite - French dip. 2 people can easily share; very good and makes it very hard to try any thing else. - There chips (homeade; are the best I've ever had). Not a big fan of chips otherwise - Murphy's on tap, and I always drink tequilla and cran - and there drinks are big and 1 of the best mixtures I've had. I drive about 20 min. to get there but well worth the trip and I go about once a week now. *** Side note - not a big fan of Westmont or Southmont either read more

Food is average. Some dishes are a lot better than others. Portions are pretty big. Prices are average bar fare. The service is generally super slow. Sometimes understaffed it seems. I would usually just rather go someplace else. read more

Ordered Carolina BBQ burger. Burger was cold as if they waited for the fries to get done. Waitress had bad attitude and was not offered an apology at all. Since it has been under new ownership the quality and menu selection has gone down hill. I will no longer make the trip in from Monroeville to eat here anymore. read more

With consistently good service (which is not happening now), this could easily be a four-star review. Sandwiches are huge and delicious, especially the Rachel and the hot roast beef sandwich. Unfortunately you can't count on quality. My friend ordered wings and asked if he could get all flats. No problem, we were told, and on other occasions this request was honored. The order came out with 2 flats and 10 drummies. Oh, sorry, we were told--no offer to make it right. An order of fries might be huge, hot, and delicious--or, literally, four sad lukewarm fries sitting next to a sandwich, with just a laugh from the bartender when this was pointed out, and again no offer to make it right. Wings might be crisp and delicious or flabby, soft, and unappetizing. There are always a few good beers on the menu, and the bar area is a fun place to be--but food is just not consistent enough to bring us back when we're hungry. read more

Awful. Terrible food and some of the worst service in Johnstown. This place used to be great, about 5 years ago. Will never go there again. read more

As my girlfriend and I were walking in, they were dragging out two guys for fighting. And I literally mean dragging. My girlfriend almost got hit. The service of the bartenders was eexcellent. And my wings were good. But for the whole hour and a half that we were there, this woman kept banging a tambourine. I joked with the bartender, saying "I will give you $10.00 if you take that off of them" her reply? "I would, but that'sthe owner. My next words? "Check please". Will not be back. read more

Food make be good buy the service is questionable! We have been sitting here for ten mins and no one has waited on us!

Treated like family. Excellent staff. Delicious food. Start with fried hot spicy cheese. Don't worry about calories. Good fish, wings or Reubens. Great hamburgers and fresh cut fries ...cold drinks. read more

Food was good. we sat by the bar, wrong choice. The language and content of the conversation was vulgar and completely not appropriate for public. I am not a prude, the bar tender tried to stop the drunks but they were not listening. This was 4pm. I will not go back. read more

What to say about The Haven?? I personally am a HUGE fan of their wings, for the johnstown area I'd say they are probably 3rd or 4th best around. I am a fan of Orchard, Windber Hotel, Crows Nest, Etc (in no certain order). Anywho. I do love their wings, the hot garlic are phenomenal and their ranch is super good. I do not think I have had anything bad from there quite frankly, some of my favorites would obviously be the wings, the Suboli is also phenomenal. I really can't put into words exactly how good the Suboli really truely is... Quite. Amazing. The Rachel and Ruben are phenomenal and huge. I have had the pizza once and wasnt overly excited about it. I've had their chips and fries before, both are very good. Some of the dustings you can get really make the chips pretty awesome. The beer list has expanded very much over the past few years, with their draft list actually being very on point with a wide selection of cheap to high quality beers. The service has been very meh, not great, but not bad by any means either. You certainly get differnt crowds of people at different times of the day, but there is nothing wrong with that. Long story short, dont expect the best service in the area, but there is some incredible food here if you're into the bar food type of scene. read more
