Dating back to 1925 they've left it as close to original as possible, giving Jack's Pub a unique, vintage vibe I haven't found anyplace else! Every other Saturday and most Thursdays Taren works the bar and I've never met a better bartender anywhere! She's the BEST!

It probably hasn't changed much at all since it opened in 1925. The bartenders are friendly, the drinks are cold, and it's a fun way to spend a couple of hours. The owner, Kyle, stops in often. He's really a great guy and really cares about the place. The bar is that lovely dark, ornate wood which could never be replaced today. The jukebox is awesome. The patrons are really nice to us and we always feel welcome. Rich, the bartender, is our particular favorite.

I knew about this place when I actually lived right outside Reading but sadly I'd never been there…read moreuntil last weekend. It was kind of dead, just three or four people at the bar and people stopping in to grab beer to go. It was pretty laid back, no fuss, nice and relaxing. I particularly enjoyed the picture of Michael Constantine on the wall (the dad from My Big Fat Greek Wedding). I remember hearing he lived in the area... $2.25 Yuengling bottles, $1.50 PBR draughts (not my bag, the metal shavings make my throat bleed, but ok), and Leffe for $3 or 4. Some local brews on tap including a Slyfox IPA. Also, the bathrooms are so tiny (really tiny) that the sink is out in the main bar area. Wash your hands or everyone will know what a dirty little monkey you are!

I seen people at the bar order food from next door on their cell and have it delivered (walked right over) to the bar. This place is a "cash only" bar with an ATM machine inside. The bar maid was very friendly and made you feel welcomed. 4 TV's with sports televised and a claw machine filled with stuffed animals can be found inside as well as a golf arcade game. This place could be the sister bar of Barbons right down the street, as they are extremely alike except Mott's doesn't serve food. Recently Barbons Jacked up all their food prices to nearly double what you normally would have paid, so its much cheaper to drink here and order food from Giavanna's next door! Plus Barbons removed their dart machine. We enjoyed our time here.

The beer cooler has a nice selection of craft beers that are priced cheaper than anywhere else in the area. Smoking is still allowed in the bar but you hardly notice it. The kitchen food menu varies daily and the selections are minimal but Ive been told that the food is delicious. Had some good conversation with some friendly locals at the bar which made me feel welcomed this time around. The darts and pool table are always a good time. Every now and then there is a hotdog stand and a chili pot set out next to the darts for $1 chili dogs. The place usually gets crowded the most on late night weekends.

Yikes. I need to…read morechew some xanax just thinking about this place. Last time I was there I felt like I was trapped in a bad episode of the Twilight Zone, mashed between two hillbillies I went to high school with and sweating like a pig at Berks Packing all to the soundtrack of "Friends With Tractors." First off, there are some good things about this bar. Number one: It's one of the biggest dives you can imagine and that can be very cool, especially if you are catching up with old friends and don't need the loud, annoying bullshit. Two: Great jukebox (now if only I could get my f*cking song in before this line of slack jawed, Banker's Club-gulping boys decide they are all going to play Nickelback or "I Got Friends In Low Places" for the hundred and tenth time). Three: Shuffleboard table. Yes, yes and f*cking yes. The bartenders aren't always the friendliest. However, I will be the first to admit that I'd be pissed as hell if I had to serve the same rowdy, loud mouthed Conrad Weiser graduates night after night (the CW being my alma mater, I know how much of a pain in the ass we can be). But for f*ck's sake, have some of these people ever smiled? Oh God, in the winter this place is like a watering hole in Mother Russia. The older female bartender with the giant rack--well I seriously have never seen her crack a smile. I've been going to Falco's since a ripe young age too. She's shot looks across the bar that suggest when she finishes her beef jerky stick she's going to crack a cinder block over someone's head. This woman is NOT f*cking around and will probably choke slam you if you piss her off. Sounds fun, right? Kind of. Like I said, if you're (A) catching up with friends (B) a raging drunk that wants to sit more than ten hours and get cooked or (C) a seventeen year old kid with a fake ID gettin your ya ya's out. The biggest problems....... the ambiance sucks ass and the drink selection sucks ass. It's kind of like hanging out in your grandparent's moldy basement with the brown recluses and pop corn ceilings. And don't even ask about a f*cking cocktail because you will get shut down so fast "it'll make your head spin." My exact conversation with the bartender (FACT): "What do you have?" "Everything." "Can I have a cosmo?" "What's that?" "Eh vodka, cranberry and triple sec. In a martini glass." "We don't make no fancy drinks here." "Ok then. What do you have for beer?" "Everything." "Can I get an IPA." "What's that?" Bartender getting more pissed. "India Pale Ale." Bartender extremely pissed. "We don't have it!" "Blue Moon?" "Don't have it." "I thought you had everything." Me grinning. "Miller, Pabst, Yuengling." I take the Yuengling and shut up before I am dismembered, put in the freezer, stuffed into a jar of red beet eggs and given away as the prize on Bingo night.
