31 Best American Restaurants near Bowmanstown

“My new best cheesesteak when I visit the area! Lots of juicy meat and fresh grilled onions at a great price, but I would prefer an Amoroso type bun instead of the Wonder Bread type they use. Didn't like the "homemade" strawberry rhubarb pie because the filling tasted like it was scooped out of a jelly jar.“

“My family visited your restaurant tonight and everything was EXCELLENT! Our waitress Brooke was great, she was very friendly and attentive, she also gave great suggestions when we had trouble deciding what to order! (Everything in the menu looked sounded SO good!!) We will definitely be back.“

“The best food prepared with the utmost care and wonderful presentation. We had a wonderful waitress that was very professional. Great drive up the mountain road, beautiful scenery. The exterior denies what wonders lay inside! Really chic decor.“

“Breakfast is great here. Portions are more than adequate and the homefries are cooked to buttery perfection. The Big Breakfast Country View Special is a ridiculous amount of food for a super reasonable price.It can get a little loud when it's busy but the food makes it worthwhile. The waitresses are always friendly and attentive too.Parking: More parking available to the left and behind the building.“

“Garlic parm fries and burgers! Excellent! Servers and bartenders were all fun and attentive even though the place was full. Felt less touristy and more local and it was perfect. We will definitely be back.Parking: Plenty of free, street parking. It is in a residential area—be respectful of the neighbors.“

“My wife and I stopped in for late lunch. The menu is very interesting- great variety. My wife ordered the kim chi fried rice and I ordered the pork pastrami sandwich. For an appetizer, we ordered the 1-lb chicken wings (garlic parmesan). The kim chi had a nice kick but still very tasty. My pork pastrami was even better than a regular pastrami- pork was lean, tender and very flavorful. The wings were huge and very juicy and tasty. We had enough for leftovers! Service was excellent. Our server was attentive and regularly checked on us. I'm so glad we were able to stop in. We walked to try it 2 years ago when we were here but it was packed. Well worth the stop!“

“Every time we are in the area we make an effort to stop here for a meal or drink. Peaceful, calming, thought-invoking, delicious. The food is excellent from flavor to presentation. The service is 5 star every time. Strolling the gallery with a glass of wine and peeking into the secret jazz room is always an adventure, time after time. The "indoor" stream is a must see. Unique outdoor back patio is lovely. Never crowded, and nice to have a large parking lot!“

“Good food, slightly above the "good pub food" experience. Coconut shrimp and pretzel sticks were good, as was the open face roast beef dinner. Family liked the drink specials they had too! Good night out, good food, reasonable price. Recommend a try!“

“We had our wedding & reception at West End Saloon on Oct 7, 2023. It was the most beautiful & intimate spot we had found for our ceremony. It was an absolute pleasure working with Sheri Grimm. Food was amazing, as well as atmosphere. I recommend anybody looking for a venue, to check out West End saloon’s beautiful hidden gem in the back.!“

“This place is totally awesome, The food is always served hot and fresh, The staff is very friendly I highly encourage you to try some great food here you won't be disappointed, Make sure you check out the weekly specials can't too,“

“It was great when we finally got it.We went for lunch and ordered items right off of the menu.Our friends at the table received their food, and my wife and I were left to watch the others eat their meal.And the issues weren't the fault of our waitress. She was great. Somewhere in the preparation area, I think they weren't good at catching our food.They made it up by discounting our bill, which was very nice of them to do.“

“We absolutely loved it here. 7 outta-towners were welcomed with a smile from not just the staff, but others there for breakfast too. Our server who seemed to run the whole place was nothing short of amazing. Super friendly and helped tend to our three kids who sat at the counter while the four adults sat at a booth. All the foods were delicious, but in particular the pancakes were our favorite. Fluffy throughout with the slightest bit of crunch around the edges. We all agreed these were a contender for best pancake anywhere.My only regret is we did not tip enough for our wonderful server. We were in a bit of a rush to get out of there and we did the math wrong. Please forgive us! We will be back and we'll get ya then. “

“Thanks to our waitress, Lindsey, who ROCKED in every way; she was pleasant, speedy, efficient and worth every tip.The heart of a restaurant bar business is the magician in the kitchen. This particular place has one woman in the back of the house named JO, who preps, prepares, presents really fresh, cooked to order specialty foods done her way.Special shout out to her great food!The menu is extensive but we knew right away the bowl of Philly cheeseburger soup would be full of ingredients and tasty. The cheese base, peppers, burger crumbles, etc were substantial and satisfying. $5Followed by a 8 ounce loaded OPI (old post inn) cheeseburger topped with fresh romaine, mushrooms, sliced onion, tomato, 2 pieces of slab bacon, all presented on a long piece of fresh French bread sliced roll. $11Added an order of fried Zucchini fries (10), $5.49.A few specialty Summer cocktails: Blueberry lemonade, $8.50 and a Watermelon cooler, $8.50 plus a few Yuenglings refreshed us while watching the THE GROOVE band on the new covered outdoor patio.Great place with a long history of customer satisfaction.“

“Great food and friendly service! Our family is Vegan, so eating at restaurants can be challenging. This restaurant goes above and beyond to make sure there is something delicious for everyone. Food is clearly their passion, and everything is yummy right down to the dessert. The atmosphere is cozy and clean. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable. We have only great things to say about this gem of a dining spot.“

“Wow talk about a chimichanga! I added a jalapeño for some perspective. Never seen one this big. This place was delicious. And service was very friendly.My SO had the taco/empanada with rice and beans combo and complimented everything as well!Just make sure you know everything is served 'plain'. You need to add each thing you want. Can be good for picky eaters.But the salsa were delicious (and had a decent kick to them), my favorite was the cilantro jalapeño. Next time I want to try the Mexi Rico chipotle if they have it (sadly out this time).Reasonably priced and portions and very respectable.First time here and definitely won't be our last.“

“This is HANDS DOWN our favorite restaurant. We often drive up from Delaware just to eat here and we have never had a bad experience. Heri, Stephanie and Maxine always go above and beyond to make our experience spectacular. We've never had a bad or "so so" dish here and we will keep coming back. This family and their staff give you their all and you will not be disappointed. A culinary GEM. -Tricia and Philip“

“Great little drive in. I've enjoyed everything I've had so far. I've had a couple different hot dogs. Even one topped with Mac and cheese! That's was pretty good. Cheese fries were good too. They have turkey hill ice cream and a myriad of flavors. They also have multiple soft serve flavors. My favorite is vanilla soft serve with wet walnut topping. They are always generous with the topping. My dad likes the crab cake sandwich and my niece loves the bacon hamburger. It's a great summer treat.“

“I was finally able to get here for my birthday! The flights were one of a kind!. The food was amazing. The service was nice. It was all worth it. We got there just in time before it got crowded. The wine glasses need to be alil bigger, lol.“

“We are locals and love tommy subs! The food is always made well and the service is always respectful and kind.Kid-friendliness: The staff is kind and the food is perfect for kids too! Everything is filling so we typically share with the toddler.“

“As a wedding photographer, I've had the pleasure of working at The Olde Homestead in Allentown back in October, and what absolute delight! From the perspective of someone who is constantly on the lookout for stunning backdrops and unique photo opportunities, this venue is a dream come true.The rustic charm of The Olde Homestead is unmatched, providing the perfect setting for capturing timeless and romantic moments. The staff is always incredibly helpful and attentive, ensuring that every couple's vision is brought to life seamlessly.Overall, The Olde Homestead is an absolute gem of a venue, and I highly recommend it to any couple looking for a picturesque setting for their special day.“

“We were in Jim Thorpe and for some reason all the ice cream places close at 7 pm which unless you're eating super early and super fast means they are closed by the time you are out of dinner. So I jumped online and found this place. A little drive and here we were at this cute place. Loved my shake and loved my chocolate milk I brought home to drink a few days later, inside was just adorable. The place to come if you want dessert in the area! Service was good.“

“We have been eating here since opening! We can’t pass by the place without stopping to eat! Smoked to perfection Beef and Pork! You have to try the 50/50 Loaded potato or any of their food for that matter. Price is awesome for the amount of food you get. Love this Roadside Food ❤️“

“Awesome down to earth local watering hole! Nice big bar, Ryan the bartender makes AWESOME Long Islands! All the regular patrons are super nice and talkative. Food is great. Homemade pizza which is one of my favorite, wings are awesome, wing night is Thursday btw. Has an ice cream shop in the front of the building open seasonally. Just all around fun and down to earth place to to hang out drink a few beers and eat some bomb food. Definitely worth checking out! Also they have awesome servers there too. Awesome service!Parking: Huge parking lot. Never have a hard time to find a spot.“

“Now this place is pure local gold! If you are camping down the street at the lot lizard your gonna wanna stop In here. They look like they have good wings. Have I had the wings? No. But just by the look of the inside you know they have that 3 week old fryer oil that just adds something to all there fried food. The people there are just an awesome crew... You feel like you just walked into the show cheers. They say there not much to do in that area except meth and drinking cold beer ... This place has at least one of them. 10/10 would do again“

“The meal I had here was amazing, best chicken dish I've had in a long while. Also had some amazing wings as an appetizer. Apple Butter BBQ wings! Never been to a place with these before but totally worth it. Everything's fairly priced and the drinks won't break the bank.“

“My wife and I just left from having dinner here. Very nice atmosphere, service was very nice. French onion soup was great and the same with stuffed mushrooms and crab cakes. The ribs were not good at all. Not trimmed well, did not pull apart like a quality rib. Meat was not tasty at all. Sauce was just ok. Needs a good smoke on sauce and meat.“

“This is a great place with a snippet view of the ski slopes at night. During the day sweeping views from the mountain top. Sunset is incredible. Plan your visit for sunset for the best ambiance. We were seated by the prepping computers. No view at all. My salmon was rare and the waiter was absolutely pleasant taking it back. Second order perfect. Staff is friendly. Funny and fabulous. We made our res on open table for 815pm. Thankfully we were an hour early. They roll up and close the place down at 845pm“

“I've been to this establishment multiple times and I'm never disappointed. Food is good and staff are helpful and accommodating. Staffing is short recently, so orders take longer than usual. But that's understandable. Overall, great place for lunch and ice cream!“
