“This is a classic, great spot. It is not a regular place for us but it's worth the drive. It has been around for years but they always keep it fresh! It never disappoints! The food menu has something for everyone and has unique offerings. The whiskey, beer and drink menu will have you coming back to try something new every time! We happened to stop in during their Octoberfest and I enjoyed the wurst platter with rotkohl and spätzle. 👌“

Back years ago, I feel like the recipe was different. Mom and Dad ran the shop then? Or maybe new owners . . Not sure, But it was still banginn!. Go get youu summm!“

“We just can’t get our timing right!! Always stealing away to the Waymart, off-season. We’ve HEARD, that they have an incredible outdoor grill setup…We’ve HEARD, that the Wrangler BBQ pit was custom made in Indiana…We’ve HEARD, that the cherry and applewood smoked meats are on display under their pavilion….But We’ve only been able to TASTE their winter options; an award-winning tray of Old Fashion square (sweeter sauce, two cheese blend), a toasted Cuban with seasoned gravy fries and a crock of French onion soup to boot. It really hit the spot as we split town for the Catskills, and began our journey with some NEPA non-negotiables. Guess we'll have to find our way back once the winter weather breaks.“

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

“I’ve been by this place since 1986 and never stopped. I stopped today for the first time to meet a very professional and friendly bartender Emma. She not only was friendly but kept the three customers and myself entertained while I waited for my food. Getting back to the lake house, the food was not only delicious but great portions! I recommend this establishment to all who pass by. Stop in and enjoy good service and good food! Signed Bill from outside Philly.“

“Went this evening for the first time. Great food, awesome service and excellent espresso martinis. Will definitely return.“

“Phenomenal food, atmosphere & people! This place is a gem & worth the drive no matter where you're from! I took my husband for his birthday.

He had veal parmigiana w linguine & salad. I had pappardelle bolognese w italian wedding soup. The bread was warm w oil for dipping & the entrees served hot as they should be. (it was obvious that nothing was sitting waiting to come out of the kitchen)

The waitstaff are super friendly & attentive and the cocktails- a bloody mary & tiramisu martini were excellent!

Dessert was brownie ala mode w a candle & song for hubs, and tiramisu for me.

Perfection from start to finish! Get familiar w Joseph's Family Restaurant in Peckville! Phil and his team are waiting for you! ❤️❤️❤️“

“A nice little family restaurant in the heart of Carbondale!

Prices are certainly fair. Food tasted good. Portions are average for the price point. Service was friendly and fast. Really can’t say anything negative at all.

I had the country omelette. It’s not huge but it’s enough to satisfy. Corned beef hash side was you’re standard CBH from a can. Nothing special. My wife got the casserole scrambler, and she liked it. Good homemade sausage.

I’m not going to travel a half hour special to come here but it’s certainly good if you’re in town .“

“Such a great spot! The food is incredibly delicious—definitely a must-stop if you’re in the area!“

“Pizza has been phenomenal recently“

“Love coming here. Great breakfasts and the coffee is always amazing. Went this past Saturday and got the special with the apple blossoms they were phenomenal. I hope you guys have them again❤️“

I have one question who's idea was it to End all this who's idea was it to make Carbondale a dead town cisco had many owners always had good food some better then others you go down main street and it looks like some one punched main street in the mouth half the building gone knocked down for what Carbondale was a place the stars came to Jacky Gleason daughter got married here the best pool playes in the world played here and some on the best music came out of this little town we had it all but some one thought it wasn't a great idea so your kids suffer it's a Dam shame under main street covered over with black top is brick roads now we half to put black top down every other years back then a brick brakes you replace the brick our leaders are ti blame your kids are left to the trouble you left them not there fault“

“Quick turnaround on your order. I would definitely stick with steamed dumplings vs. Fried. Crab Rab appetizer are medium size not very large. LO mein was delicious Snrimp Egg foo young ..delicious ask for flat not chucky. General chicken good. I wish they offered the General shrimp on delivery menu . We pick up bi weekly or monthly from here yet I hv not asked if they can do the generals shrimp in a brown garlic sauce as that is fabulous and my go to. If I don't stick with veggies. Try and Enjoy! Send feedback if you have a favorite!! Stay warm and as always have a positive day!! Let your thoughts be moving forward. No looking in the rear view mirror.. leave the dust behind. ❤ Spreading love and critiques of local places!!“

“First time coming here & drove an hour away. We have been craving sweet sauce pizza and it was delicious . They have a tv inside as well to watch as you’re eating . Highly recommended!“

“My husband and I decided to try Leo's, and all I can say is WOW. Everything was so fresh and delicious. We had the French onion soup and Chicken noodle soup. Definitely not canned. We got the Reuben sandwich to split and we thought we were in New York. We even ordered a New York pizza to go. Will definitely be back.“

“So much to say about this amazing establishment. Food is excellent. Drinks are amazing and there list of available drinks if one of the largest I've ever seen. The wait staff has always been on point. they are friendly and quick to get your drink refilled. there is so much to do between there live music venues, multiple pool tables, slots, or just hang out on there outdoor patio. all around this place is a must go“

“In my top 5 Restaurants in the Mid-Valley. Asset to the community!“

“An open thank you to the people who make a difference.
This glowing review-turned-thank-you isn’t without its bias.
Lynnie and Caroline have been part of my life since high school, and The Crossroads is where I learned so many of my early life lessons. But now, at 40, with a family of my own, it’s something even more important.
The Crossroads is one of my safe places.
It’s where I can be myself. No mask. No pretending. No editing who I am.
It’s always felt like home — like time somehow hasn’t changed us.
But last night, while celebrating my dad’s 75th birthday there, something hit me in a way it never had before. I looked around the room and had to hold back tears.
Because David was safe there too.
Most of you know Davey has autism. Restaurants are usually not safe spaces for us. There are often judgmental looks, impatient staff, and that familiar “autism mom” feeling of being watched and judged — even when he’s just quietly stimming under the table.
But last night was different.
David played freely.
He laughed.
He smiled.
He ate pool cue chalk… and no one charged me.
No one told me to contain him.
No one asked what was wrong with him.
No one stared.
No one made me feel like we didn’t belong.
Instead, our normal simply existed there.
Zurg and Buzz battled on the pool table.
Jumba wandered through the restaurant and bar keeping a watchful eye.
David stimmed loudly with two devices and ran joyful circles around the room.
And we laughed.
And now I’m crying the happiest tears.
Because my safe place…
is his safe place too.
Thank you, Crossroads, for being the kind of place that makes families like mine feel like we belong.
It means more than you could ever know.“

“You Need To Know? Came here based on a recommendation from a friend. Bellied up to the bar & had cold drinks & bar fare. On this occasion we had the jalapeños cheeseburger, chicken tenders & fries & cheesesteak. The food was your normal bar food, good flavors. Would like to return for some different sauces. Environment was very cool & the girls behind the bar worked very well together. Good stop for those in the Dickson City area.“

“Pizza is runny, but let it sit and lt is good. I got a personal pan and a 8in chicken parmigiana hoagie and soda for just under 10 dollars. Very inexpensive, not the best I've ever had, but for the price I was satisfied and staff were nice and sociable. Will stop again.“

“the wings and sauces were very good! will be back :)“
