Even though I am highly lactose intolerant, my handy lactaid kept me safe and comfortable to ensure I got a chance to enjoy my experience at the WHEEL in Tamaqua.I remember getting keto bread just to try it and see if I would like it, and it was ok. Not sure the amount of heavy toppings I got could handle the thin keto bread I got on my cheese melt though.The atmosphere was as expected cause the food was semi fast so it’s a lot of families coming in, so sometimes you may come to loud environment in the dinning, plus a TV.I plan to come back to try some more because it’s a specialty spot and hard to find especially where I’m coming from.

Brussel sprouts were incredible. Crab fries were wonderful. I asked for onion straws there were only two on my sandwich couldn't tell they were even there. Server was awkward but very nice and attentive. Love the vibe of the restaurant over all. I will go there as long as they are open.

We had a great experience at the wheel. Hubby ordered the chicken sandwich with house-made chips as listed on the menu. I 'created' my own grilled cheese with smoked gouda, ham, tomato, pickle and bacon jam on Italian bread with a side of Mac and cheese. We both truly enjoyed every bite of our meals and our server was very kind and friendly. The atmosphere inside is just OK, but, the food is well worth the visit.

Overall meh. Not bad tasting but the food wouldn't fill a gully goat. Not enough portions

It's a shame to give a negative review as I've been here once before and the food was good. I went with one other person and the restaurant was not very busy. There was one other table and a small party in the other room.Once seated, we got our drinks quickly, sent our orders in, and waited an hour before the waitress came back with our food. We were not checked on before then and had to ask for drink refills. Each of the sandwiches we got were burnt on one side, and one sandwich was cold. The sauces we ordered were also mixed up between the orders. The sides of tots that we got were cold as well.When the waitress came back, we told her they were burnt and she asked us "What do you want to do about it?" I don't think the impetus of fixing their somehow both burnt and cold dish should be on the customer. We weren't offered replacements or money off of the order. She did come back several times to ask us how it was, but after mentioning that it wasn't good, it felt almost comical to be asked as if we'd change our minds.We ate what wasn't burnt, paid, and left. Really disappointed with the service and the quality of food. For $35 dollars we shouldn't have to wait an hour to get burnt and stale grilled cheese sandwiches.

"Wheel" as in cheese wheel. If you love cheese you would be hard pressed to find a better place. Build your own grilled cheese sandwich with lots of different cheese to choose from. Want more than just cheese add a protein. Bacon, and a quarter pound burger on a grilled cheese with pickles and french fries stuck in there. That is one of the regular things on the menu. Like macaroni and cheese, have it with crab meat. I only review the best. If this place was anything but great I would not be saying a word about it.It's comfort food with a little extra on top.

Always love the wheel. I remember my first visit in Pottsville. The Tamaqua place is even better. The food is amazing. Huge portions. What a great idea. Crystal was our server and she was on top of everything and wasn't overbearing. I made a fantastic puppy coloring fort daughter hahaha!!! GOD BLESS grilled cheeses.

Kid-friendliness: It was all for the babies!!

This place is a hidden gem that any tourist or local should try at least once. The specialty sandwiches are really good on top of the list to make your own grilled cheese. Not to mention that the workers there are very personable and nice people.

We love wheels for a different take on lunch. this was our first visit to the tamaqua location and it is just as unique as the Pottsville one , which unfortunately is no longer . It has plenty of seating, lots of drink options and of course the delicious grilled sandwiches with homemade chips. Our hostess and waitress for the afternoon “ crystal “ was friendly and just a sweet person. We started with the wheel fries that are simply amazing , then I tried the skooben what a great take on a classic Rubin sandwich and you can’t go wrong with the crabby Mac and cheese it’s always a favorite. Anyway For the price to get a great tasting meal in a cool atmosphere, I don’t know why this place isn’t packed . People just don’t know what they’re missing. Whenever we travel through tamaqua or even hometown we will be driving a little further down the road for a good meal at a reasonable price. We love you wheels!
