50 Best American Restaurants near Palmerton

“Joey B’s has always been one of my wife and I’s favorite go-to spots for amazing food and super delicious cocktails. It never disappoints! The Blue Bomber Burger is my usual must-have — always juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. But today I switched things up and tried their wood-fired pizza, and WOW! Crispy, smoky, and loaded with flavor — it was absolutely fantastic.

To make it even better, the bartender crafted a custom cocktail to pair perfectly with the pizza. That kind of personal touch is what sets Joey B’s apart. And of course, no trip here is complete without starting with their lobster bisque — rich, creamy, and full of flavor every single time.

If you haven’t been to Joey B’s yet, you’re seriously missing out. Great food, great drinks, and a great vibe — every single time.“

“First time visitor tonight. We will definitely be back. Food was delicious! Drinks were amazing! I loved that our bartender Cody was more than happy to recommend a drink. Sometimes bartender’s don’t like to do that. I think we have found our new date night spot. Really happy that we decided to try something new.“

“Best authentic Mexican food in NEPA! Great service as well.“

“We stopped in today for a late lunch as we have always driven by and always wanted to try this cute place. It wasn’t busy and we were seated right away, the staff were very welcoming. We ordered our food and the appetizer came out right away! We had the pierogies and they were so good! I had a salad that was on special, and my daughters each had the cesear salad and a burger. Everything was delicious! The service was excellent, Mackenzie was our server and she was very attentive. We will definitely be back!!“

“No pictures since we were starving Marvin... But these were the best wings we've had in the area, asked for them extra crispy... The hot has a very good kick to it. My SO found a bit too much, but just right for me.

Me and my SO agreed these are THE best fries we've ever had. Perfectly cooked fresh cut fries. Do yourself a favor and get them.

And service was beyond friendly, even though they were pretty busy for a Friday everything was what you would want in a meal.“

“This is a great sub shop .They have Amoroso brand rolls and high quality meats. Friendly employees..I highly recommend Joe's place“

“Anyone who's visiting from a different area is probably familiar with the concept of "Pocono Food". One Ten isn't Pocono Food, it's great food for any area. Food this quality wouldnt be out of place in any major city. Been vacationing in areas roughly around Mt Pocono for decades and this was the first restaurant I really wanted to go back to. Owner or chef has an obsession with pickles, but what they do with em is great. Also pretty great prices!“

“Arthur (team lead) in the middle of a rush, took the time to read the allergen list, double checked the label & even said he was disinfecting the scoop! It’s so hard to often find accommodations let alone someone who takes the time to be concerned. Thank you so much!!“

“What an amazing place to hang out in all 4 seasons. Mind blowing views, fun activities, live music, great food, awesome atmosphere. Highly recommend!“

“The cheese curds are legendary.“

“My favorite restaurant for date night, celebrating or special occasion. My husband and I have been going for our anniversary dinner for the last 5 years and other special occasions. The food is by far the best I’ve had in Lehigh, Bucks it Berks County. I haven’t found a restaurant to rival it, though a few have come close. It could very well by me favorite of all time. The menu is always creative and the food never disappoints. The atmosphere is warm and cozy and the staff are welcoming and professional.“

“Loved the food!!! amazing customer service. Tried the tacos and the chimichanga. The tacos were delicious and I would recommend the guacamole and the jalapeno cilantro sauce. The chimichanga is huge, full of meat and delicious! The owner gave me a chicken empanada and also would recommend it. Full of meat from corner to corner and very flavorful.The best in the area! The tres leches dessert was also amazing!! Recommended 100%. Excellent service and delicious and fresh food!! Thanks for the amazing treatment!!“

“Stopped Sunday. Just driving by visiting area. What a treat, good Olde diner food. reasonable priced, friendly staff. would become a regular if we lived in area. French onion soup was delish!“

“It’s my first time here. The place is nice, with unique decorations unlike a typical bar. The beer menu is displayed on the wall, and the cocktail menu is on paper. It’s small but cool. You’ll need to find street parking nearby. A great spot to grab a beer and try different flavors!“

“First of all i never gave a review to any place but i had to for here. I had never been here before so first timer and my waitress Krystal was the best. Not only accommodating to what i wanted but also gave me pointers of things to see and do in the area. I will be back and hopefully she will be the person serving me again“

“Fun restaurant with random nicknacks everywhere. Your eyes will wander around the whole time you are there. A cute dog is the official greater. The food was decent enough that I would come back while in town. The frozen party drinks served in over sized cups hit the spot. My daughter loved her pasta and chicken wings, the wife was happy with her salmon with baked potato, and I ordered the ribs and actually liked it better than the past few times I've ordered ribs at random establishments that offer it. Chocolate cake and berry pie were enjoyable. If busy the gentleman that was working there is definitely hustling and doing his best to keep up. So be patient. Enjoy.“

“food was delicious, everything was great.“

“We love this place! Everyone is amazing and we always have such a great meal. You can tell by the customers that they really enjoy being here and love the food.“

“Some of the greatest food you could ask for!“

“Started to become a regular at the Boatyard, avoided for along time because of a misrepresentation of the establishment from years past that just no longer should be considered. Let’s start with the staff and owners very professional, fun and caring they make you feel welcomed anytime you walk in. Honestly you can tell the staff are like family and you just feel like you’re apart of it when you’re here. The food portions and pricing is great not many places in the area can you get a portion where you feel you got your money worth the fact the pricing isn’t tremendous makes it more attractive. The quality of the food is great rotating specials lets you try new things which are always cooked right. You are missing out not trying the boatyard at least once.“

“Me and my sister took our "MOM" there yesterday for her 90TH birthday.The ambience , interior ,salads , foods served made her night! THANKS to Bill , seating hostess , cooks , Laura(our great Server) and the rest of the wait staff for a Great Evening !!!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏“

“our family has been coming for years. highly recommend! ask for Savannah; she makes it special!“

“great food & service! first time there and will definitely be back!“

“Went to Beltzville last night on a last minute decision. So happy we did! Area bars can be hit or miss especially with kids but this place was great! Kids loved the food. Yes, it is a bar, but they definitely are a family friendly bar. I can’t wait to go back in the summer when the patio is open. The food was great and very reasonably priced! Jeff, the owner, was very nice and came over to our table to chat and get to know us. Our server Jess was fantastic!“

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ soo good. The portions are huge & the food is amazing. The jalapeño cilantro sauce could make shoe leather taste good“

“Great atmosphere and good people“

“What an amazing discovery for anyone with food sensitivities and allergies! Our meals were exceptional. The drinks top notch. The staff amazing(shout out especially to Holly and her handcrafted shrubs!) The only reason I was willing to leave Jim Thorpe was because I had a loaf of wonderful to take home and toast for breakfast Monday morning. Looking forward to our next visit to town even more now!“

“I slipped on cum and fell over“

“Went for early dinner. Bar with regulars, definitely needs revamp, old but clean. Jukebox too loud not overly crowded for 4 pm on a Friday. Food was good but a bit pricey, no frills. Bartender was our server, attentive and accommodating, nice.“

“I got a medium pepperoni pizza here yesterday. It hit the spot, just quite greasy. I’m a local and have ate here many times- mostly a hoagie, fries, and pizza. They are always reliable for a solid hoagie and a great staple to our community!“

“Great venue to check out local music and more!! The staff and clientele are second to none. Come see For Freaks and Sinners bring 90s Alt Rock and more on Saturday, May 11, 2024!!! It’s gonna be a great night!!!“

“Great food!!!“

“We love Christy and Chloe! They’re the best!!“

“eat here several times a week always great. love there french onion soup and cold slaw“

“The other reviewer is right...the beer is cold! Rarely do I ever get served a Coors Light bottle as cold as it is at the American Hotel. The bartender Kat is so easy going and down to earth and exemplifies what a bartender should be like. Great service from her, good wings (I always get the butter, garlic, parm), cheap beers, and the atmosphere is so laid back--locals just having a drink and socializing. The interior is old school which I love and the vibes are really positive. This is the only bar I frequent in town. No bars in Lehighton, Jim Thorpe, Brodheadsville compare. Cool place. Good people. Good vibes.“

“A hidden gem! Great food, huge portions. Fantastic breakfast place, we’ll be back for sure.“

“Delicious! Lovely atmosphere. Did I mention the food was delicious!“

“I’ve been a J’s customer since the day i was born. This is amazing place to stop by if you’re visiting Northampton and want a quick bite to eat. To add, the french fries and pierogies are to die for. Overall, this place is so good!!“

“We were on vacation nearby during Memorial weekend and passing Weissport. This was when we stumbled upon this cute little ice cream shop. The tables inside are chalkboards, great for kids and adults. There is also a piano that people can play some impromptu tunes. We liked it.“

“Plain pizza takeout with an order of pierogi. Great seasoning on the pizza, more of a doughy crust than a crispy one. Pierogi were fried and on point.

Vegetarian options: Just avoid meat toppings or fillings

Wheelchair accessibility: Flat entrance“

“We ate dinner in the cafe and had a wonderful meal. Our appetizer was the chips with gorgonzola cheese, tomatoes, arugula and balsamic glaze. Wow! I had the chicken, artichoke, pesto, penne and my husband had the forbidden rice, shrimp and bok choy dish. Both were absolutely amazing. Compliments to the chef. Our waitress was great! We live 45 minutes away but that won't stop us from returning for another fabulous meal.“

“Food was phenomal! Friendly prompt service made our impromptu visit SPOT ON. Highly recommend the Chili on the Nachos, & the PIG LEBOWSKI was a unique menu item - surely was a treat. Vibe was right on a Saturday night!“
