They have daily breakfast and lunch specials along with homemade soup, so to see those you need to follow their Facebook page. And the crew is always friendly and greets you with a smile.“

My husband and I chose it for our anniversary dinner, and from the moment we stepped inside, the wait staff provided top-notch service, making us feel genuinely welcome. The food was delicious, and those legendary Stirna's brownies are always a must for a sweet treat. Much thanks to Cathy and her team.“

Staff is always super nice, speedy, and conversational, which makes the experience as a whole welcoming and pleasant. I love taking people here when I can!“

“do not let the location fool you, great place to stop“

“My wife and I are new to the area and wanted to try a new restaurant. I went online and saw that there was a country style diner complete with homemade desserts and huge portions. I had the Barell Burger and my wife had the Blue Burger. First off, you are really taken in by all the great decor in the restaurant. This place reminds me of Country Junction in Lehighton how they have it decorated. The coffee mugs are huge! We had dana and Carly as our servers and when I tell you these two are hands down the happiest waitresses I've ever had wait on us. You really can tell that they love thier customers. We will be back on Sunday for breakfast. Great place.“

“A ton of great options for both breakfast and lunch! Such a friendly and helpful staff. The Reuben was perfect and the peanut butter pie was delicious!“

“Absolutely amazing food. Terrific staff quick service. I drove for an hour and 20 minutes away. I’m going back often.!“

“I've lived around the corner for a year, but never tried their place 'til last night. Got a pizza for my upstairs neighbor and myself to split. It's unique, and for 5$, you can't beat it. She and I (mostly me) almost ate the whole 12 cuts too!“

“Absolutely amazing service and such great food. I couldn’t recommend enough. Every single person we interacted with was extremely nice. The food was literally AMAZING. I love it here so much.“

“Food was 5 star.Service was acceptable and bar service was a disappointment. I had a simple drink order and they couldn't get it right in 2 tries. Not sure if the waiter played a role in this. I still give Bucatini a high rating because of the food quality.“

“Stopped in for lunch with a friend. We both had the Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich. That is a very tasty sandwich and we both enjoyed it very much. The steak fries were perfect. Our server was friendly, helpful, and very attentive. It was a nice time made very enjoyable.
Great food, good service and nice atmosphere.“

“Very authentic Greek food delicious“

“Had a Brunch at the Highlands today after a funeral and the meal was great. A hidden gem. Try it“

“Rich's Restaurant is an absolute gem. The waitstaff here are incredibly attentive and helpful. You will rarely see your coffee cup drop more than a quarter of the way down before a smiling server is there with a refill. Even if you're a heavy coffee guzzler, they'll practically be standing by, pot in hand, waiting for eye contact the second the mug leaves your face. They are that good! They make a genuine effort to get to know you and make you feel right at home the moment you walk through the door. If you’re looking for that warm, small-town feel—and that extra welcoming touch you can't quite put into words—Rich’s is the place.

The food completely speaks for itself. I haven't had a bad meal here yet. They offer a ton of great specials on the weekends, and you absolutely must try their gumbo. It’s a legendary staple within those four walls.

As for the prices, they are exactly what you'd expect nowadays. They aren't overly expensive, but they aren't cheap either—they sit right in that perfect sweet spot that allows a family to enjoy a Saturday morning breakfast ritual without breaking the bank.

Give it a try! I think you’ll really enjoy the food, the service, and the atmosphere. Our family absolutely loves it, and hopefully, we’ll see you there soon. I'll be the guy in the corner stuffing my face with the Birdie Special! 😉“

“The best lemon greek chicken orzo soup ever. Drove up from New Jersey to buy two quarts for my boyfriend who was sick 🤧 with the flu 😷..“

“We follow some NEPA eatery pages and hot wing groups to find good places for my husband and I to get wings! We had Haggerty's wings for the first time yesterday and they were hands down the best wings I've ever had. They were perfectly cooked crispy wings and delicious sauce, perfect blue cheese and crunchy (not wilted) celery! They won us over and we will definitely be back for some hot wings! (Also their other apps were excellent!) They staff was pleasant the atmosphere is so inviting! Can't wait to come again for a beer and wings!“

“Came here for the Halloween party, it was so much fun and the service was so friendly. A miller light draft was only 3.60!! I don’t know if that’s everyday but we went on a Friday, very rarely do you see a miller for that cheap. My friend got wings too and loved them. Bartenders were busy but they were super friendly.“

“We were introduced to a tasting of The Cashew Lounge on a wine train event we attended in Carbondale this past Fall. We have been wanting to get to the actual restaurant since then and decided it was a nice sunny Sunday why not take a ride today as we live about 40 minutes away. So glad we did, it was so worth the trip. The food was top notch, the service was fabulous! Everyone was attentive and knowledgeable and some of the friendliest staff we have ever encountered in a restaurant. The atmosphere was cozy and comfortable and clean! The food from appetizer to dessert was A+. We had the Buffalo Chicken Empanadas as an appetizer, homemade and sooo good!. I had the Gnocchi in Vodka Sauce as my entree and it came with choice of soup , I chose the Tomato Basil. Wow, no words , both were wonderful. My husband also chose the Tomato Basil soup and as his Entree chose the Chicken Parmesan over pasta which had a nice twist, it was served with Vodka Sauce instead of the usual red sause. He thought it was delicious! If you leave here hungry that's definitely on you, the portions are huge and we both brought home leftovers. We couldn't resist the Creme Brulee Donut dessert special OMG!! As a side note I never know what kind of cocktail I want order, so I simply said, surprise me with something sweet and fun! They sure did deliver , a chocolate covered strawberry martini , it was so yummy. Thanks for being so playful with my request, most places just kind of give me a look , lol. We even got to chat with the owner, such a nice guy! Thanks for a wonderful first experience, we will definitely be putting The Cashew Lounge on our restaurant rotation!!! Give it a try, you will be glad you did! Thanks again! Greg & Anne“

“Kayla is very personable and friendly to her customers. Kayla is very conversational to her customers. She checks on all her tables to see if they need anything multiple times while eating at the restaurant. Before I need anything, she is gets my request before I ask what I need. Kim, the manager is very polite and checks to see if the customer enjoyed their time while dinning at the restaurant. Kim makes sure to ask how the food came out to the customers in the restaurant.“

“Stopped in tonight for dinner and it was amazing! The service was great. Marie is very friendly and attentive. I recommend you stop in. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. Well worth it anytime you go!“

“Incredibly friendly and attentive staff, large portions of fantastic food at very affordable prices. We ordered a cheesesteak, bacon cheese fries, and the chicken croquette dinner, which came with soup or salad, and a chunk of crusty bread, and everything was delicious. Best croquettes I've ever had. Will definitely be back!“

“Everything is absolutely delicious at Hooked. There are so many dishes to choose from. I highly recommend this restaurant“

“I had a hamburger and was very pleased with it. Sat at the bar and chatted with the owner who was friendly. He informed me of some of the bands that play there. The whole place has a nice vibe to it. The bathrooms need remodeling. Noticed an outside patio. There was plenty of parking.“

“One of the best restaurants in NEPA! Do not miss this place. The ambiance and service are lovely. The staff is always willing to make accommodations. But, this place is such a gem because of their wide range of gluten free options!! It is so hard to find GF items in NEPA, let alone this big of a selection. The GF chicken parm in the pictures is INCREDIBLE. I will always come back here!“
