In NJ they are as common as stoplights in a city. If you can find one who still brews fresh coffee they are the best coffee around. Their fresh made sandwiches are the best and to get them and a soup at any time of day is a delight when you work late or ultra early. Their personal brands of tea and fruit drinks may just be a generic but they never seemed to taste better than when coming from the WaWa. In NJ you get your Pork Roll n Bagel sammiches hot and wrapped, a half-0decent cheese steak, and... and... YUM!!! But WaWa is scarce because they have pride in their quality and community. They partner with nearby farms to ensure much of their dairy product is a fresh as can be. They are not here in Ohio and this makes me sad... we have the low-class WaWa called Sh33tz who try to put tots on everything and that's just "No!" in fact, that is my ONLY bad thing to say about WaWa... they Are not in Ohio and this makes me sad.

The gentleman who took our order over the phone was incredibly kind and helpful. We got a large pepperoni, sausage, and meatball pie, and a large spinach and ricotta. The slices? Absolutely massive. Four of us--starving--couldn't even finish both pies. Crust was cooked to the perfect crunch, toppings were fresh, and the flavors were spot-on. You can tell this place takes pride in what they do. Not at all surprised they've been around for 35 years. Great job, team--keep it up!

Apparently, they're now serving beer at Burger King. I mean, who would've thought, right? I was driving back to Philadelphia and decided to stop and charge my phone, but little did I know, I was in for a surprise. I placed my order for some chicken fries and turned around to find myself face-to-face with a whole case of beers. Talk about a plot twist! I kept walking, trying to process what I just saw, and guess what? There was even more beer! I don't know what's going on in Scranton, but they sure know how to have a good time. And let me give a shoutout to the genius owner of this Burger King because they've mastered the art of impulse buying with their product placement. I mean, who can resist the temptation of grabbing a cold one while waiting for their chicken fries? It's like they read our minds! So, if you're ever in Scranton and craving some fast food with a side of unexpected beer options, head on over to this Burger King. It's like a party in a fast-food joint! Just remember to enjoy responsibly and maybe grab some extra napkins because things might get a little wild. Cheers! In other news, the place was clean, bright and so was the cashier.

We started with the French onion soup, which was rich, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying. They also brought out fresh warm bread with raspberry butter, a standout touch that was absolutely delicious. For entrées, the pulled pork sandwich was fantastic, and their burgers were equally impressive -- juicy, well‑seasoned, and cooked just right. The braised beef risotto is truly to die for, packed with deep flavor and perfectly creamy. The 1/2 rack BBQ ribs were excellent as well, tender and smoky, served with fresh French fries that rounded out the plate perfectly. Service was top‑notch. Our waitress checked on us multiple times, making sure we had everything we needed and creating a genuinely welcoming experience. Overall, Powerhouse Eatery is a great spot with consistently delicious food and outstanding service. I'll definitely be back.

The restaurant was staged beautifully and decorated for a between-the-holidays meal, and even though it was packed there was only a low undertone of voices from the surrounding tables. Our waiter was fantastic and gave honest, informed suggestions that showed great menu knowledge. The cocktails were creative, well-balanced and refreshing; we tried the pomegranate cosmo, winter maple old fashioned, mistletoe mule, holiday margarita, and butterscotch espresso martini. The whipped ricotta and poached pear crostini really stood out and was an incredible way to begin the meal, but don't sleep on the bacon wrapped scallops. I could have eaten a bowl of that sweet corn puree and even though it's a party favorite, the smokey/sweet bacon/scallop combo was even more crisp/tender than most their kind. For entrees, we rattled off some Chilean sea bass (w/ citrus beurre Blanc), linguine and clams, and spicy chicken pappardelle, finishing with a few lunges at their Classic House Made, original 1989 recipe, Peanut Butter Pie. Normally my fiance and I split our entrees; unfortunately, I couldn't come up from the Sea Bass long enough to even offer her a bite. It was really a wonderful sauce, and a perfect amount to swirl around in the risotto. I was able to score the remainder of the clam linguine as leftovers, and even heated up in the microwave two days later it still qualified as a top three clam linguine dish I've ever had; buttery, lemony, garlicky goodness.

There are a handful of utility spools that serve as counters -- so, be prepared to eat while standing or take your meals 'to go' and eat in your car or elsewhere. As others have suggested, there are limited dining options in the area near Pocono Raceway, so it's terrific to see new small businesses like the Country Road Chef try to establish themselves. While the service was friendly and welcoming and the food was made-to-order - I was disappointed with the food. At the chef's suggestion, I ordered the Slow Smoked Brisket sandwich, served on Texas Toast, with a side of french fries and the special homemade ketchup ($18). The bread was dry and the meat was overcooked and chewy; the french fries were cold and the homemade ketchup never made it into my bag. I'm sincerely hoping the Country Road Chef was having an off day and I'll give it another try next time I'm in the area.
