“We just had the most amazing pizza, beer and wine at Sabatini’s. Gina was our waitress and she went above and beyond! Truly incredible pizza pie! We order 3 smalls and each and every one was better than the next! Yea it’s cash only but there is an atm in the lobby. Totally and completely worth every bite! Tall booths, lanterns and lovely atmosphere! The Sabatinis bar next door is totally cool and we picked up quite a few different kinds of beers to take home to Ct with us! Also, the buffalo hot wings were a fabulous app! Totally and highly recommend! Wow!“

“order the menu it's delicious“

“Had our daughters Sweet 16 party here with about 70 people, a DJ and lots of younger kids. This place is the PERFECT place to host any party! We were all impressed with this venue. There is enough space to dance and have a DJ but a place on the other side to relax play pool/fooseball and just hang out if the music is too much for guests. The staff there helped carry things in and had the whole place set up ready to be decorated! Also, everyone knows the worst part of any event is the clean up. Well, Broadway Tavern told us to take what we wanted and leave the rest up to them!!!!! I will definitely be using this place in the future!! HIGHLY recommend!!!“

“Amazing food and the staff is beyond friendly. None of the staff knew me but I was treated like a long time friend. This is definitely my new "go-to"when I feel like good food and drinks.“

“First time there this evening for a birthday. Best burger I've had in this town since I've lived here.“

“First of staff was super friendly, we had Matt and Dezz, The wing are out of this world highly recommend ( in my opinion best wings around worth the drive!)“

“A PA Native now living in New Haven, CT, home of Apizza, I make the trip to this Gem of a pizza joint whenever I visit. The Zza is exceptional, the people friendly and I am Always Satisfied.“

“Absolutely delicious wings, sauce good too. 2nd time visiting for wing night! Excellent. 5*****“

“I took a group of men here for a lunch after a service at harvest Church and we were not disappointed! My crispy chicken sandwich was enormous and tasted delicious. All of our food was excellent. I only complete is the lack of Coca-Cola or Pepsi. But seriously, we had a great time!“

“Met my children their last night for dinner. What a find. Easy to get to, not same old tired menu selection, great food with detailed presentation. Strong service staff. Look forward to going back when in the area.“

“Excellent speakeasy-style environment in an unlikely yet pleasant location in the North End of Wilkes Barre. Helpful staff and quality crafted cocktails. Come here to get away from the hustle and bustle of the Wilkes Barre bars, without sacrificing good service or cleanliness.“

“Amazing family, I love this place!“

“Christine and her staff are amazing! Great food and service!“

“Had 6 hours to kill in Scranton before my flight and am so glad I came to this place. McKenzie the bartender is just as much beautiful as she is nice. The wings were crispy and actually spicy. I had a really good time watching football and everyone in there was so nice.“

“Been coming here for over 20 years.. Generations change things, but this family tavern is still the place to be for the corner/old time bar and it's always a good time. Come here for a great night of music/small talk and get together with your friends.. I love this place!“

“This restaurant is an area landmark for a unique sweet pizza. It has been in Hanover Section of Nanticoke for decades and is still very popular. The pizza pies are smaller than other places, but they've always been that size. The prices are reasonable compared to other places, and the pizza has its own taste. It is always served hot and quick. The inside has a bar in addition to a dining area. You can also order for take out. It is worth trying if you've never had it to see if you like the unique pizza style served at Ruby's. There is plenty of parking and they DON'T deliver.“

“Un Lugar acogedor para estar en familia. Las atenciones al cliente excelente, con respeto y amabilidad. Higiene, buen sabor sobre todo y una presentación en cada plato perfecta. 110% recomendado. Gracias porque a WILKESBARE le hacía falta un lugar con clase y familiar.“

“Good food and an overall great time tonight. Thank you Courtney!!“

“Food is good and our waitress Steph was fabulous.“

“My go to bar for the last 40 years, friendliest atmosphere in any bar in town.Reasonable prices.Recently read some unfavorable comments about it, but people who would knock a place like this deserve to be ignored anyway.Wouldn"t waste my time going anywhere else.“

“Love this place! It’s got that old-school neighborhood vibe where everyone feels welcome the moment you walk in. The bartenders are super friendly — they actually remember your name and your drink after a visit or two. Drinks are delicious, cheap, and always served with a smile. It’s cash only, but there’s an ATM right inside, so no big deal. Perfect spot to unwind, chat with locals, or just enjoy a laid-back night without breaking the bank. Definitely one of those rare, genuine spots that keeps the community feel alive.😁“

“It has a dive bar vibe with a huge bar area surrounded by some tables. It gets pretty busy at night. We didn't eat, but the pizza and wings looked good.

It seems like a great spot for drinks with friends or if you enjoy pulling up a few seats at the bar and people-watching.“

“This is one of my favorite bars in the entire world! Super friendly family oriented bar. They have fun things to do like bingo. If you enjoy the “Cheers” atmosphere, I highly recommend stopping by. You won’t be disappointed.

They’re celebrating their 90th anniversary in June. If you stop by, wish them a happy birthday!“

“great people cheap drinks“

“Food is absolutely delicious! Very friendly staff as well.“

“amazing burritos! great quick service“

“Small bar and restaurant with a pool table. We ordered fresh cut fries with cheese and bacon (real bacon, not real cheese) and wings. I ordered the house special sauce, a mix of wing sauce, bbq and parm cheese. It was not the best. The bites were good otherwise. Not too bad price-wise.“

“Great food and great Times there.“

“Good Atmosphere, New vibes, Great food! Pool table upstairs, Deck for fresh air This place had all the ingredients for a good time. Under new ownership. 👍💯“

“nice people. pool. darts. blue moon drafts“

“Good food and drinks. Nice dive bar.“

“The wing bites are amazing and the penne vodka was delicious (I asked for mine to be spicy and it was nicely done). The portions are incredibly generous. The employees were kind and helpful with suggestions. The environment was great especially if your a sports lover (I am not) only downfall was no jukebox or pool table and you can't smoke or vape and thats understandable. I personally will be getting my pasta from there from now-on.....“

“Drivers Drivers Drivers bring you tails out of the truck stops come here have a drink and try their food you won’t be disappointed try whatever homemade soup is on!!! Also pictured is the Clams Casino 5 star with some hot sauce and lemòn“

“hot wing pizza is definitely 👌 the sauce thicker and tastes amazing“

“Found this place a few months back when my daughter had a softball game up that way, and I was looking for a place to watch the Eagles on Sunday. This place did not disappoint for watching any Eagles game. It’s truly like a full eagle bar with the atmosphere of all the fans. Love the place went back a second time a week ago.“

“I'm a regular here, and it's the only bar in the area that I feel comfortable enough to go to by myself and have a beer. The employees are all very friendly and welcoming, the food is great, the beer is cold, and the bathrooms are clean. It's not a large bar, but it's definitely on a more intimate level where you learn to know everyone that comes in. I have introduced a lot of my friends to this bar, and they love it as well. I will recommend them to anyone that wants a good beer and hot food.“

“they have a great friendly staff great drink specials nice atmosphere just a great place to go an listen to bands.“

“great place too just go and relax and have a few drinks“

“The food was amazing and the staff there is beyond friendly, awesome place! we will definitely come back when we are in the area again. Telling all of our friends about the mill.“

“I love this place. You can buy rounds all night without feeling robbed, sing and have a good time without feeling judged and all hosted by an amazing blonde bartender who won’t hesitate to dance a little. 😘❤️ The only bar I go to when I’m visiting my hometown.“

“We ordered the Gramma Sicilian tonight.....Excellent!! The crust was perfection! The blend of sauce, cheese and pesto was the best Gramma pizza I've ever had. The gentleman who handled my order was so welcoming and friendly also! Thank you!“

“Great atmosphere with the friendliest, most non-judgmental staff and patrons, who make you feel like family. Karaoke nights are especially fun. Highly recommend.“

“great for just relaxing. with great eastenders. 😄“

“We don't get there often, but when we do, it's always a very nice time. We always feel welcomed! Very friendly atmosphere.“

“easily my FAVORITE place for dinner and drinks in NEPA. their location is easily accessible and atmosphere is chill, not too overwhelming. i’m vegetarian and it’s hard for me to find good places to eat… but HOPS is very accommodating! great selection of flatbreads and salads. i have dreams about their veggie burger, seriously delicious! their prices and portions are outstanding. lastly, the staff here is so friendly, chill, and they make you feel welcomed! if there’s a mistake on your order, or if you have any questions about the menu, they are knowledgeable and more than happy to help. i would rate 100 stars if i could. love ya HOPS!“

“What is the difference between tavern and bar? They both serve alcohol, but a tavern is more sophisticated with an “emphasis on the food.”
Town Tavern is a simple by nature, with a long bar and a rear seating area with tables and hi-tops. They keep the menu fairly simple by pub grub standards, with pizza, sandwiches and their next-level wings. As the definition says, an emphasis on food, in this case “the wings.”
Life is short. Tomorrow is never promised, so Eat the Wings! Enjoy yourself. If you consider them a guilty pleasure, you don’t deserve them. I would say “live deliberately” and try the Cajun or Sweet Thai Chili - my favorite two sauces. The wings come in orders of 10, but based on the size and quality of the wing, 10 is plenty. Would love to see a “fleet” of wings similar to beer tasting. Hard to choose from the 34 sauce flavors and six dry rubs.
The cost of the wings are listed on the menu as “market price.” Just like eating a lobster! Regardless of the current price, they are worth every penny.
I have seen a few reviews saying it takes too long. Please, if you want fast food, go to a place that serves it. If you want high quality - crispy wing on the outside and juicy on the inside, tossed in one of their beautiful signature sauces, wait for that level of preparation. Highly recommend a visit to the Town Tavern. An order of ten of their wings and a cold on-tap beer is truly one of life’s simple pleasure. Enjoy yourself, it’s later than you think.“
