It was 8:30 on a Monday, a friend of mine and I were traveling. We were hungry and didn't know where to stop to eat in Lock Haven. A lot of places aren't open on a Monday, so we knew it could be a struggle.
We stopped at one place because the Internet said it was open until 11:00. We went in they told us they "might" be able to give us something to eat, but they were closing down the kitchen so it would have to be small. We didn't want to upset the cook if they had already started cleanup for the night, so we left.
We went to Ruby Tuesday's because again the Internet said they were open. As we were walking across the lot, a staff member ran out and locked the door in front of us and then ran back in. There was a paper on the door that said Covid hours, temporarily closing at 9:00.
Okay, great. Starting to look like we are eating at Sheetz. (No offense Sheetz, just really wanted a sit down meal).
More searching and then I said, "Hey, I saw a place back towards town, let's try one more place, then if not, fast food it is."
We arrived there at 9:00 because it had taken us that long to actually find a place that would let us in the door.
Sometimes good things really do come to those who wait!
Our waitress asked us if we were eating and at this point we asked if we were allowed! She just kind of smiled and was like, "Absolutely!" And brought us two menus.
There was so much to choose from! If you couldn't find something here, you probably weren't hungry anyway! We were hungry so we decided to order and share our entree and an appetizer and got loaded fries as well.
The Krabby Patty sandwich was delicious!!! I mean you would normally have to be at the ocean to have a crab cake this good! It wasn't a bunch of bread crumbs with some imitation fish flakes in it. It was real and delicious crab with an amazing bang bang sauce on it!
The mussels were very good too, served with a bun that they had made into garlic bread! The fries were good, I would have maybe liked to try the home made chips instead, but next time! The Chardonnay was cool and crisp and quite good too. They had a large selection of mixed drinks and beers as well, so everyone could find what suits in that department too.
There was a great little outdoor patio off to the side and it looked really nice out there!
It was a fun and laid back experience, we felt totally welcome in the place. We would definitely stop back at this restaurant/bar when traveling through again.
Great food and great people! Sometimes things just work out, we kept bumping along through the night and we are so glad we ended up here! read more
