You can't ever go wrong with the "Best" wings in the Poconos, the MOST friendly staff, and a great outdoor deck to boot!! In a year of crazy rules and unpredictability, the Old Mill Pub has maintained the fun laid back atmosphere it always had. Definitely a must when in Sciota or even if you're just passing through.

We did a few apps to share: tempura shrimp with a pickled slaw, spring rolls and a cup of chili and French onion soup. The younger kids thought their menu had some great options and the rest of us were all over the map: grilled chicken salad, chilled soba noodles and a pub burger with sweet potato waffle fries. Their menu changes often to reflect the seasonality of ingredients, and I didn't snap a pic of their most recent menu, so food descriptions are generalized. We had a very relaxing time by the fire, and it was a perfect low-key evening to break up a busy holiday weekend.

The nachos were so bad we didn't touch them. We told our waitress and she barely responded and didn't do anything about any of it. We do not ever complain but our experience was horrendous. The scenery is beautiful and the bar is cool, if you visit skip the food and get yourself an over priced drink and enjoy the view. Hopefully they figure it out bc it could be a great spot.

We were seated right away in an open format atmosphere with the best balance of light and dark. The bar across from us looked fantastic. What we noticed right from the start is how well the staff works with and for each other to bring guests the best dining experience possible. Maddie was our server. She was kind, professional, patient, and knowledgable about both food and drink on a grand scale. Her recommendations were stellar. I had a refreshing gin and basil martini as well as their beef carpaccio, which was absolutely fantastic. My girlfriend started with their beef stew, which was thick and satisfying. It was so delicious, she almost canceled her entree to have more. She went with the home cooking route and indulged in their meatloaf with green beans and mashed potatoes. Although she loved that as well, half had to come home with her, which made for an excellent lunch the next day. I went with the raw of it all and got their spectacular tuna tartare with asparagus, radish, and rice. Usually, the tuna is cut into strips but this tremendous block of gorgeous fish knocked me out. Absolutely fantastic from presentation to flavor. For dessert, we got their brownie with ice cream and this was all upper level in taste and texture. I would be shocked if their ice cream hadn't been made in-house. We loved our first experience with Apollo and we look forward to our next visit, which is hopefully sooner than later.

Thank goodness we planned some flexibility after the meal before our show started. But the real downer of the meal was Alison. Our server had such an attitude... while the food was pretty good, she was not. The place was also too loud and had no vibe. The bar crowd spilled into the seat area and looked messy. Wouldn't go back.

One of the more notable elements of Nick's is the view of the lake upon which it is situated. Our family enjoyed the appetizers, burgers and sandwiches we ordered and the kids thought the pizza was very good. Standout menu items are the brown sugar cured bacon burger with burger sauce as well as the boneless buffalo wings which were crispy and tender and moist inside.

We walked into this wonderful rustic bar to a smiling hostess who brought us right to the table that part of our party was at. We just sat for a while and caught up prior to ordering. The is a very comfortable place to sit and talk. It's a lovely rustic vibe. The food is very good. There were eight of us and I think we all had different items ranging from a BLT to broiled salmon. I ordered my regular... Cheeseburger with Grilled onions with chedder provolone cheese. I read the other reviews and totally agree with R.M. that the fries were great... burger too. Overall, this is nice comfortable spot to sit, hang out and speak with your friends. When you look around yu see the place is packed with the regulars. KUDOs to the team at Murphy's Loft.

This is a review of Tavern on the trail update. I've recently found out that the establishment has…read morebeen sold to a new owner. I have met him just this past week and think he's a stand-up guy. This is all my opinion and I'm just somebody that frequents this place as much as I can however I am not 100% local. So a lot of what's in Place is going to stay like it is for now which is nice. You're going to see a more enhanced menu but for the most part, many of the faces you've come to know at this place I'm going to be here. Everything sounds really positive in the changeover. One saying that I'm not crazy about is a possibility of the changing the name. This is my opinion here. Since 2020 the previous new owners took over ....and the name of Capone's went into the history of this location. It had residence here for many many years. Back then it was really no more than the towns great dive bar. A local establishment in a small town filled with locals. And rightly so. It was everything anyone could ask for in a local bar. From 2020 till early this year those owners with the new name of Tavern on the Trail went through highs and lows of rebranding the establishment. They took it from the dark dive bar entity to a brightly lit place where patrons can enjoy a smoke free bar. As well, families can come to eat and not have to worry about smoking and some of the other things that come with a dive bar categorically.. Since then as well, and this is important, the Tavern has become a great stop for recreational visitors. Those using the trail as well as River recreation. Being an Outdoors person myself kayaking and hiking and backpacking, biking.... If I am out and about on one of my excursions and there just happens to be a place called Tavern on the trail, which associated with the trail that I'm on, I think that's cool. I am definitely trying it. I've met so many people that only come around once a year. They make Tavern on the Trail a scheduled stop. So not just for these types of visitors, but all kinds of visitors to the community of Whitehaven this name Tavern on the Trail. I think it's attractive and well thought of as the base reality of it all is the Tavern actually sits on the trail.. I for one I'm going to be disappointed when the name changes. However, that won't stop me from coming. This place is far and away. so much better than years ago..
