Super cool atmosphere! This place is deceptively large and is literally a small museum. Every…read morecorridor is a work of art, a display of treasures honoring local history and niche interests alike. One could spend hours looking at the incredible shadowboxes, model trains, war memorabilia, movie displays, model ships, etc, not to mention the Dunder Mifflin gift shop! The food, however, is another story. The menu is large and varied and has some delicious appetizers (particularly the Bang Bang Srimp and the Crab Balls--addictive) and entrees too, but the very pricey stars of the menu leave much to be desired. The "Just Seafood" entree looks mouthwatering by description and costs forty effing dollars, but I'm being completely honest when I tell you everything on that plate was drier than a popcorn fart. The dish comes with shrimp, scallops, and lump crab meat. The best thing on the plate was the THREE scallops they provided. The crab was genuinely the worst, driest crab I've ever had. Worse than low-quality frozen snow crab at Red Lobster or the grocery store. The shrimp was overcooked and pathetically seasoned with a light sprinkle of paprika (which fell mostly on one shrimp and none of the others). I had to salt my own food at the table because everything was flavorless. All in all, if you're in Scranton because you like The Office, stop here and have some CHEAP starters and drinks, grab some cool Dunder Mifflin merchandise at the gift shop, and enjoy all the awesome art they have at Coopers. Pay no mind to their expensive seafood, it sucks. Service: the waitstaff are lovely, friendly and attentive. They're great and deserve praise!

We have been coming to this restaurant at least 1 or 2 times a month and have never had any issues…read moreuntil we ate lunch here on 9-5-2026 around 1:30pm. Our waitress named Cassy 7 on our bill. If she waits on you make sure that she does not add on extras that you do not want. She will ask if you want corn and potatoes with your meal and if you say yes she adds on extra portions of each. Corn for $4.00 more and Potatoes for $3.50 more (They are already included with your meal). When she brought out our food we asked her why we had so many pieces of corn and potatoes with each meal and she said that is what we wanted and I explained to her we only wanted that comes with the meal and you brought us way to many. She said no problem and that she would take them off of our bill and I explained that we did not order and extra food and she said that its ok and that they would take them off of our bill when we paid. Well when the bill arrived nothing was taken off and We asked her about it and she said that she would have it corrected and then came back and asked me for payment and I asked for a copy of the bill before I paid and she had taken off only part of the extras and I told her that she needed to take the rest off of the bill and she stormed away and then 2 other ladies came to the table and told us that we had eaten the extras and that we had to pay for them. WE DID NOT EAT THEM!! I explained this to them and they said the waitress had counted the food that was left and we had to pay for the missing pieces and that was that. We were lied to and tricked into ordering add ons that we did not eat. I paid the bill and explained that we would never come back here again after this mess. It's not the money that matters. It was how we were treated. YOU JUST LOST A LONG TIME CUSTOMER OVER THIS! Just beware when you order so this doesn't happen to you!

Combined review of hotel and restaurant. Highly recommend the restaurant, not so much the hotel,…read moreread on to find out why. Expensive menu here totally justified because the food tasted great and they obviously pay attention to detail, and the service was absolutely flawless. Here is the original combined review: First impression (over the phone) of the hotel is the reason we chose this one: Yvonne; she was great! The wait to check in was painfully long. There were 2 people behind the desk but only one taking care of clients. When we got to the desk, the girl (I wish I had gotten her name but I didn't) was very professional, apologized for the long wait, and took care of us quickly, so I can only assume the people ahead of us had a special request or something.. .and that is definitely forgivable. At the bar we were greeted by John, very experienced at his job and it showed. After he left we got Emily. She had a great attitude, had only nice things to say about co workers and her bosses. She also was very good at bartending. I would highly recommend the bar / restaurant. We decide to eat and instead of a table just stayed at the bar where we met several friendly locals and had great conversations, as well as with one of the cooks as he was leaving for the night (James) who was so funny I told him he should try his hand at stand up. That man has talent as a storyteller. We were feeling very happy when it was time to call it a night and go up to the room to sleep... and that was when we noticed the issue... NOISE. You could not miss every single noise coming from other rooms... I was woken at 3am to what sounded like someone trying out a new pair of lead boots above my head! It was not a good nights sleep and we had a very busy day the next day so that was very disappointing. On our way out we stopped at the front desk to mention the noise issue and was told when they renovated the hotel they didn't exactly spend a lot of time on sound proofing... and for people who are traveling through and consider a good sleep important, that is an incredibly important detail to miss. Since we do stay at a lot of hotels, I assumed they'd attempt to try to make this right with us, maybe something off the bill or some sort of benefit if we come back or whatever. But instead we just got the story of the renovation and nothing to try to make us feel better about not getting any sleep. Extremely disappointing, as other hotels we have stayed at always try to do something to make up for a legitimate concern. (We don't have a lot of complaints but when we do we are never brushed off like that.) I was wondering if management doesn't instruct their front desk staff what to do when a client has a concern. It didn't appear they were brushing us off in a rude way, more like they just didn't know what to do for us. They told us next time we come we should request the top floor. Ummm... there's a very good chance we won't stay over ever again because we feel like our concern wasn't heard or taken seriously. We would definitely go back to eat there, but not sleep (or... not sleep, actually). They did a beautiful job on the aesthetics of the renovation. You can clearly see the pride they took with this. I wish they had taken the soundproofing as seriously. Every single member of the staff we had contact with was fantastic and made us want to come back. The food was pricey but very tasty. I had the portabella with a salad and I can't wait to have it again, it was so good. The bar atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable. The room was clean, the climate control worked properly, they have blackout curtains in the rooms, the bathroom was spacious and clean. The elevator was painfully slow but the stairs were accessible and we ended up using them instead. A tweak here and there and this place could be perfect. For the price they charge for an overnight stay, they really should be looking into soundproofing, and figure out the elevator situation, not sure why any elevator would be as slow as theirs is. The food was VERY good and the service was flawless. Thank you for the wonderful job that your staff did. They are the biggest reason I would highly recommend the restaurant to friends & family and I am sharing this review online, on my social media, and on TripAdvisor. Date of stay: March 2019

As we went for looking for steak we decided to order both. The steak with butter sauce with fries was passable. The steak special (rib eye) was horrible - never had one so thin and full of grizzle, fat and was tasteless. Dessert menu was also a bust...cheesecake or pound cake. The owner of this restaurant, who also owns Settlers Inn, The Dock and Ledges needs to get over to Carbondale to check out this location and make some improvements!

It was TOTALLY worth the wait; however, if you are limited on time, order ahead. The food was delicious! I ordered the chicken/shrimp hibachi, which came with perfectly cooked Japanese fried rice, vegetables (onion, carrot, squash and some kind of bluish cabbage?) and "yummy" sauce (which IS very yummy BTW--ask for extra and thank me later). The shrimp was grilled and not overcooked. The grilled chicken chunks were tender. The food was so good I almost choked on a piece of rice from inhaling my food lol. #IcantbelieveIatethewholething They give you a nice portion of food--I was full a little more than halfway through but it was so good, I couldn't stop eating. Now I want a nap! I am so happy this place is only a hop, skip and a jump from my workplace! Yes, they take credit cards.

Steve & Irene's Hoagies (Mayfield, PA). Nov, 2024. My husband and I were visiting family in…read morenortheastern Pennsylvania over Thanksgiving, and were looking to eat something different after a few days of homemade turkey and sides. The "locals" suggested ordering take-out from this restaurant -- their favorite hoagie shop. Steve and Irene's is a mom and pop shop that has been in business for more than 40 years, and has been voted "best hoagie" in the valley for 10+ years. Nonetheless, I hesitated because they're located a few towns over, and would require someone to drive to go to pick them up. We reviewed their menu on-line, and called in an order for four 12" hoagies for four adults. The restaurant offers both 12" and 24" hoagies; they don't sell our usual smaller 6" ones. My husband ordered the Cheesesteak Special ($11.50), which includes green peppers, fried onions, mushrooms, and marinara sauce, while I chose an Eggplant Parmesan ($10.75). Others ordered a Corned Beef Reuben ($12.00), with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and thousand island dressing, and a regular cheesesteak ($10.95). In retrospect, my husband and I should've ordered only one hoagie as the quantities were large and we ending up splitting one for dinner and ate the other one the next day. Of the two, we enjoyed the Cheesesteak Special more than the Eggplant Parmesan, largely because we prefer a hoagie with A-LOT of fillings and toppings and the cheesesteak had more. That said, while the taste was good, we still would've preferred more fillings and toppings on both. Our friends enjoyed both of their hoagies. We easily called in our order, and the girl who took our order apologized that it would take 55 minutes. However, it was actually ready in only about 35 minutes. Parking was easy. Staff were friendly. We would order from this hoagie shop again.
