    Black streak was pretty dry but the Delmonico streak was pretty good. Service was good and place filled up quickly. I'd come back again

    The spicy clam chowder was too spicy and they made an unpleasant fuss when asked to return it.

    The food here is really good and the staff is friendly. They are open all the time. I sort of has like a dive bar/ restaurant feel to it.

    Food was inexpensive and delicious. Service was good. It's simply a sandwich and appetizer joint just very well done.

    JP recently built a sweet looking outdoor area and renovated the interior/exterior so it looks…read moreextremely respectable. He painted over all that asinine graffiti that was all over the walls and it's . . . clean looking. Like I can respect the place now that there aren't 700 comments about who has homosexual tendencies. I hope it stays this way. And there's windows. A bar owner finally gets that windows make a bar less depressing and feel airier. Fuck sake. You can smoke in here and the smoke eaters work. This is a plus for me. The food: There are some real gems on this menu. Anything signature in the wing department (preceded with JP's or J-Bone) get a dozen of and shove in your face with reckless abandon. Just inhale the fat, grizzle, & bones (they're good for you). If I could bathe in J-Bone sauce, I would. No lying. I would use that shit as gravy at Thanksgiving. Needless to say, I think the sauce and the dry rubs are fuckstickity-awesome-bo-bossum that bear the bars name - I can't stress this enough. Don't' order sweet and sour and expect instant wing orgasm. They're good, but in the way getting the old rub-n-tug is just, ya know, good. There are generational conflicts in Williamsport about who has the best burgers, hoagies, wraps, salads, nachos, - Meh. I have other favorites. No fresh or local food here, just deep-fried deliciousness. Good prices. They have a very respectable beer selection for South Williamsport. JP is not afraid to rotate the tap system so you're not stuck with the tired old standards all the time (Bud, Miller, Lager, etc.). You can get plenty of that crap, but there is always something craft/near craft available. Not much for wine drinkers. Not much in the way of signature drinks per se. Ok drink specials if you are looking to get drunk fast and cheap. They do make a pickle shot with dill pickles (not the original recipe from the Loyalsock Hotel, no sir). The Bloody Mary is interesting. Lots of Tobasco and two dill pickles. Worth a try. If you like football, this is where you want to be on Sunday. If you are an Eagles fan, you have a home here. If you are not an Eagles fan, you are still welcome, but if Philly has a game at the same time, don't expect to hear your team's commentary - you won't. You will most likely get to see it though since there is a plethora of TVs and the NFL ticket. JP's is mad respectful when it comes to Sunday football. No jukebox! Awesome! Almost every other bar in the area gets this wrong. Service. Depends on who you get. All of the bartenders are female and nice to look at (one is a Goddess- I don't know how else to describe her). Overall, the regular bartenders do a really good job. The cooks push food out quickly. Most of the staff is friendly, but some of them are just a little too focused on the regulars. Regulars: Lottsa locals and there's a lot of meat in those heads. The pretty bartenders and sports theme attracts younger men with more testosterone than they know what to do with, lots of flexing. It's a good place for a girl to go if she is looking to get pregnant. Today. Cops: The parking lot in the back of the building is a cop magnet. South Williamsport's finest love to bust patrons coming out of the bar and trying to make a left turn on the Maynard St. Bridge toward Williamsport. They watch you from the Fastenal lot. They also do roving patrols near the bar down Maynard St. and east on Southern. Be careful who's behind you! Also, 9 out of 10 times, if they do a drunk stop, they do it right there at the intersection.

    Came in to this local watering hole for the yuengling special. Great atmosphere and an engaging…read morebartender rounded out the perfect end to a long business trip. It was wing night also but I was stuffed from dinner. But those wings looked awesome. The local next to me raved about them and ordered another dozen take home.
