18 Best Cocktail Bars near Bethlehem

“We went to Social Still on the recommendation of a friend. We were coming in from out of town for a concert and to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Social Still did not disappoint. The atmosphere and staff were perfect. Everyone was so friendly and knowledgeable. We started with some cocktails, ( both of us are admittedly picky about drinks), and we loved ours so much we left with a bottle of botanical gin. The food was delicious, I had the crab and chorizo beignets. Such a great combo and excellently prepared. The hand cut fries were a nice add on and disappeared from the table as soon as we started eating them. Everything was perfect from beginning to end, and I really appreciated the menu item “by a round of drinks for the kitchen staff”. That shows me that it is run by people who care about each other. We will be making a point to come back!“

“Visited from out of town and we were very pleased with this little place. Really great food and our bartender Nicole was very friendly and provided excellent service. We will definitely visit again our next trip to Bethlehem.“

“very nice free entertainment with great bands however when a large crowd is there no tables can be reserved or even are available to sit at. it should be in a larger area of the casino.“

“Excellent service, delicious food! Had the short rain ravioli, French onion soup dumplings, crab cakes and the steak on a stone, all excellent! Cocktails are made with their house infusions, they have some really interesting drinks, fig and fennel bourbon, really top notch.“

“Great food and generous portions. Easy to over order not expecting the portions to be so large. But everything was cooked properly and delicious. Service was very good initally with several servers taking care of our needs. But by the end of the meal and waiting for a dessert menu, our server seemed to have forgotten us and after about 20-25 minutes of waiting I asked another server for help and was promptly taken care of afterward. Our main server did aplogize. It seemed that with so many servers handling each meal, it's easy to get mixed up with the result that the main server is thinking that a diner's needs are being addressed by someone else when they are not. Clearly it should be a main server with one assistant but throughout the course of our meal I had the main server, at least 2 assistants, and a floor manager I asked for help when we were forgotten.“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at ZEST on 2-22-25. It started at the bar with Travis & Justine. Very friendly, attentive, and welcoming bartenders. They explained the drink and dinner menu and answered our questions. Our server for dinner was Emily and she was amazing! Friendly and attentive not only to us, but to the tables around us! She made sure drinks were refilled and that we received fresh cutlery when our entrees arrived. We were very pleased and will be back again! Thank you ZEST!“

“Great place to beat the heat today at Music Fest today. Loved my 🌶️ spicy margarita“

“Great place to grab some delicious cocktails for a reasonable price. Went with my partner for pre-dinner drinks on a Wednesday evening, and our bartender, Milton made the whole night for us. He was very knowledgeable about the drinks and let us sample a few things. We even bought a bottle of vodka he recommended before we left for dinner. HIGHLY recommend!“

“We love the young energy and chill vibes of Emmaus’s own version of Cheers. Brian Kidd brought his own unique blend of punk, rock, and pop to a lively audience that stole the show from the performer with their far-out dance moves and unabashed merry-making. A great time was had by all, as per usual at this family-owned local business that always strives to add to the sense of belonging and jois de vivre of this vibrant community.“

“First time at Youell's Oyster House and it was absolutely delicious! I got to enjoy the lump crab with potatoes and veggies. Also, the bread they give you before your meal is probably the best bread I've ever had. It was so incredibly soft, like it melted in your mouth.
Will 100% be returning!“

“My husband and I went here four our 10th anniversary. Our waitress was Hannah and she was super friendly and interactive. Every staff member we came in contact with made us feel welcome and valued. The decor and environment is very appealing and conducive for a relaxing time away from the general hustle and bustle. The drink list is abundant and the food, everything we ate was top notch. They have a list of local farms they partner with to obtain their food. My husband and I were very impressed with the this place and absolutely would go again and will recommend others to experience this diamond in a rough.“

“We loved it! We will be back!“

“Great atmosphere and good people“

“Not once but two days I ordered take out , Churrasco w tostones. When I tell you in was 5 star quality. Meat was cooked perfect flavors where on point. Definitely can recommend. From one Chef to another you get 5 stars from me“

“I ended up at White Orchids Thai Cuisine at the Promenade Shops in Saucon Valley for an impromptu dinner with some friends who consider it one of their go-to spots. We had a 6:15 reservation and were seated right away. The staff was incredibly welcoming and stayed attentive throughout the entire meal.

To start, we shared the White Orchids Shishito Peppers, which were a great opener. For the main course, I went with the Pineapple Fried Rice, while my wife ordered the Crab Fried Rice. Both dishes were fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. Overall, a great dining experience and one I’d gladly repeat.

Dietary restrictions: They have alot of gluten-free options.“

“I have eaten here several times and always have had an amazing experience. But if you need a place to host a private event go to Tacos y Tequila in Allentown. My friends and I threw one of our best friends a surprise birthday party and Tacos y Tequila went above and beyond. Edriana was my organizer she was so helpful especially with my 100 questions ?. Brandon is the manager he was so kind and attentive. We had two amazing servers by the name of Jose and Kayla. They were so kind and I hope to get them as servers again in the future. The food of course was amazing. They set a menu for you and your guest and everyone enjoyed everything. Their mojitos are also amazing. I definitely will use their services again.“
