30 Best Bars near Towanda

“Friendly atmosphere and staff 😁“

“This is Bloomington’s best hidden gem - the menu is totally unique from anywhere else in town, the cocktails are staff-created and to die for, and you really can’t ask for better company! Pat hired the friendliest crew in town (shoutout to Stephen), so do yourself a favor and get to know them 🩷“

“Went there today for lunch had very good service and bacon double cheeseburger was delicious. Definitely will go back.“

“I love this place! The food is incredible. The Black and Blue burger was amazing. Thank you Adam!“

“We stop in anytime we are in the area. Kari (spelling) is the early morning person behind the bar-and he is amazing! Had the best sandwich ever-The Philly Sandwich covered in their homemade cheese. I would drive 2 hours right now just to have another. Overall, it is a great place to visit, but tough to leave! My apologies, I don't remember the bartender that came in at 10...but she was equally amazing! Can't wait to go back“

“Neat little place. Staff was fun, polite, and attentive to drink refills but not pushy or trying to "get that extra tip/sale." Patrons were middle-aged, not the young ones who party, get drunk and obnoxious. Music was great. It was my first time here in a long time, and even though there seemed to be a lot of "regulars," the place was welcoming. I'd absolutely stop by again.“

“Love love love this place! My wife and I were finally able to have a date night together! The owner is amazing and Conner and Olivia were phenomenal staff members! #FiveStars“

“Love this bar... Good prices on drinks and bartenders are super cool... The blonde headed one is super cool... I don't remember her name and honestly she probably doesn't remember mine... But she had a great attitude and gives great service. She hooked up with some Carmel Apple jello shots around Halloween... They were awesome! Would totally recommend this bar... You just need to like or appreciate country music... It plays in this bar“

Also got to hear Biscuits and Gravy Band that same night! It was a great night with friends, excellent Food and Music! I highly recommend if you never been give The Station Saloon a Try!“

“love Diamond's. Great place“

“The bar staff is always entertaining , love to interact. It’s a small local bar but recently sell food which is cheap and amazing . Non to mention the cheapest deals daily on all types of liquor. The crowd that comes in have fun with everyone . They have slots which whenever I’m there they make great money and there are TVs everywhere for sports or whatever you request if they have it they’ll turn it on .“

“Great service, good food.“

“Dat bar is an old school drive bar. There isnt a big menu for food, there arent 30 beers on tap. It's easy to find a table, and if you're hungry, you can get a classic bar pizza. As long as you approach this bar for what it actually is, you can have a great time here. They have darts, pool, and checkers. Peanuts in the shell are free, just toss the shells on the ground. Folks are reserved, but friendly. Dont expect the newest spiced illinois spiced new England spiced ipa. They dont have it. But if you actually want to hear your friends, this is the place. It's wonderful, but it's not a hip biergarten, it's a small town bar, and be prepared for that. So long as you accept that, and the cheap beer that comes with it, you can have a fun time. Shoot some pool, drink some Busch, and have a pizza. It's worth it.“

“Was there on a Saturday night. The staff was great and attentive. The jukebox was playing and people were dancing, but it was not so loud that you couldn't talk to folks next to you. The outside patio (no glass bottles allowed) was much quieter, but still had music (and dancing) it was a bluetooth speaker I suspect. Drinks were affordable. I didn't try the food, but heard that they grill out on the patio on Sundays. I enjoyed the atmosphere here very much“

“A great place to attend drag performances.

For the most part, the venue is nice, but certain areas, depending on where you stand, the music can be overwhelmingly loud to the point you feel it in your chest.

The vibe was good overall.“

“Today was my first time eating at Lucca Grill. We went during lunch and I ordered their grilled chicken sandwich dipped in parmesan sauce and homemade chips. It was delicious! Our waitress was fantastic! She greeted us as we walked in and gave us great service! We are definitely going back and will have to try the pizza.“

“My wife and I went here for the first time Saturday January 10th 2026. I must say from the minute we walked in the front door we were greater with professional and polite bouncers. Have to give a big shout out the bouncers. We sat at the bar and watched the bears game come to an end and met the general manager and she was very polite and good company. As the night went on we never went without being checked on to make sure everything was going good for us. The ladies here were very social and would sit and have a genuine conversation and make you feel very welcome definitely will be back to enjoy all the great people here. Great job kappa gentleman’s club for an upstanding place you run! Great job to all the staff from bar tenders dancers to the bouncers!“

“I have been 2x now and both experiences I left happy! Great food. Great prices. Great staff. Only suggestion is to have bottled water availble for purchaseuntil the water doesn't taste like mud in Bloomington.“

“best fish sandwich ever,,, good service“

“We arrived right at opening. We were immediately greeted with a friendly smile and a warm welcome by Lee. Already they were swamped with New Year's Eve orders, but Lee was super attentive, and his attitude was just phenomenal. The entire staff was actually really great, they clearly know what teamwork is! The food was absolutely amazing. We tried the pepper jack cheese curds as well as the garlic cheese curds. Delicious. The double cheeseburger (which was the special today) was on point, the chicken sandwich was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of crisp and juiciness, fresh bun, and my favorite crunchy pickles! The restaurant was really clean, and the atmosphere is cozy. Love the chill vibe. The prices are unbelievably amazing too! We will be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! If I could give more stars for service, I would!“

“We stopped in for a late lunch and it was terrific! My husband and I split the tenderloin lunch that was one of today's specials and we got an order of tots with it. Knowing we were splitting it they delivered with everything divided on 2 plates, how nice. Tenderloin was perfectly cooked and the breading was crunchy awesomeness. Tots were crispy and delicious. Serving sizes are huge, service very good and the staff are friendly. The daily specials change daily and are always very good.“

“Very Good Place to Hangout & Have Fun with Friends & Family A++“
