Tapas on Main is a tapas bar and restaurant that opened in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in May 2011. It…read morewas founded by restaurateurs and business partners Juan Carlos Paredes and chef Rafael Palomina. Both hailing from Bogota, Colombia, the two partners own a number of restaurants both separately and together. With Tapas on Main, they brought authentic Spanish-inspired dishes to downtown Bethlehem. In February 2015, when the unit next door became available, the partners opened a French-style bistro dubbed Cachette Bistro + Creperie. With both eateries adjacent to each other, they can share the same kitchen and liquor license; it makes for easy management. Palomina serves as the executive chef for both establishments, while Luis Abundez serves as the chef de cuisine. My family and I visited Tapas on Main and Cachette Bistro + Creperie this past summer while we were visiting relatives in the area. We stopped by while exploring Main Street and it looked like a cool place to get brunch. Although we were all seated in Cachette's dining room, the staff said that we were allowed to order anything from either establishment's menu. For drinks, I ordered a "Limoncello Spritz" while my wife had a "French 75". For food, I had the "Smoked Salmon Benedict" (two poached eggs, smoked salmon, sautéed spinach, bacon crumbles and hollandaise over English muffins), my wife had the "Huevos Rancheros Crepe" (two fried eggs, chorizo, pico de Gallo, cilantro rice, black beans, jack cheese), and our sons shared the "French Toast" (fresh bananas & strawberries, maple syrup). We all really enjoyed our meal! Our extended family also enjoyed their dishes, which included the "Croque Madame" (gruyere, ham & egg sandwich, served w/ frisee & apple salad). Whether you fancy a culinary trip to Spain or France, you'll find plenty of delicious dishes at these two establishments!

We had to stop by for some Moravian cake slices…read more It's very unique to this area and I thought it would be a very special treat for when we come back home. It's kind of like a coffee cake, but it has a very special ingredient. I think if you had some tiny pieces with a cup of tea, it's a very wonderful treat. And it was a big hit and we bought three pieces today. I look forward to coming back here!!

This ice cream parlor is managed by Hotel Bethlehem, and the ice cream is made by students from…read morePenn State University. Who knew students make ice cream? Such a cool concept. The décor is cute, the staff was friendly, and the flavors were excellent. I tried the Moravian sugar cake for the first time, unique and absolutely delicious, and I loved it so much I ended up buying a whole Moravian sugar cake for Christmas dinner. The peppermint stick seasonal flavor was also surprisingly yummy and perfect for the holidays. One helpful note: the restroom is located across the street in Hotel Bethlehem on the second floor, and they even provide fresh hand towels. Overall, definitely worth stopping by for creative, well-made ice cream.

I recently visited this vegan bakery and tried two of their tarts. First, I want to talk about the…read moretaste. They were fine - good, but nothing crazy or out of this world. I've definitely had better vegan treats before, especially for the price point. One thing that really stood out to me was that there were no prices listed near the tarts or baked goods. Normally that might not be a huge issue, but in this case, I think it's important. When the cashier told us our total was $34, I honestly thought he was joking or had accidentally charged us for a small cake or something. We didn't question it at the time and just paid. Once we got to the car, we started second-guessing whether there had been a mistake. I even went online and checked their ordering page to confirm the prices. To my surprise, there was no error - the tarts are actually $17 each. I can usually justify higher prices if the food is truly exceptional, made with rare or unique ingredients, or if part of the proceeds go toward a meaningful cause. In this case, though, I didn't feel the quality matched the cost. There are several vegan bakeries in NJ that offer better-tasting treats at more reasonable prices. At that price point, I truly hope the workers behind the counter are earning well above minimum wage and that their hourly pay reflects what this place charges for a single tart. If customers are paying premium prices, it would be reassuring to know that the staff is benefiting from that as well. Overall, I think listing prices clearly in-store would help customers avoid sticker shock at checkout. Transparency goes a long way.

After dinner last nite, we looked on Yelp for a gluten free dessert place and this place popped up…read morewhich closes at 9pm. While we tried calling them but no one picked up, we did manage to stop by their place last nite. My wife picked up a GF carrot cake (for $17) and she said it was very delicious and moist. Also, she bought a cowboy cookie for the road today. While it may be a tad pricey, honestly for a GF joint, it is worth coming in and try. They have other ample selections and the staffs are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely would recommend.

Honestly, the overall rating came down ultimately to the chicken. The service was great, ambience…read morewas chill, and the tablet menu was refreshing and fun to use. Oh, and there's no shortage of free parking at this restaurant. First off, the picture on the menu showed a little bowl for the onion stew, whereas what I got was onion stew spread over the chicken. The stew itself was tasty, but for both the stew and grilled chicken, a bit more tenderness and less chewiness would certainly have elevated both dishes. The red beans and plantains were fine, but the yellow rice lacked any discernible flavour which was disappointing. I believe this place has what it takes to be even better and that both dishes should have been better. I hope they continue to improve and serve the locals (and non-locals) for many more years.

The restaurant made a serious mistake and refuse to admit it or make any compensation…read more I made a pickup order from Uber Eats, but the order vanished before I get to the restaurant. Then I thought the order was cancelled but I didn't receive any refund. I called the restaurant and they said the order was complete. But I never got the food. This means that the restaurant probably gave it to other people by mistake. However, they didn't admit this mistake and claimed they are not responsible for this. They did not show any sincerity nor gave me any compensation for this problem.

I'm still mad I didn't get one coming home!. The staff was very welcoming , accommodating and gave us insight on the flavors!!. We ordered the Brown Sugar Boba then I asked about the swirly stuff I saw in some of the drinks! Come to find it's Crème Brûlée (I usually don't do CB) but he suggested to go for it! And Maaaaaan lemme tell you!!! Even more delicious I scrapped mines down on the sides of the cup just to get the last of it to mix in my few sips!!! Definitely Glad we stopped when I go back on Vacation this THEEEE ONEEEE !! . I should've got a larger one ! But this was our first time & I hate wasting money on something! Now we know for our return in a few months!!! You won't be disappointed at all at all !! You can truly taste the flavors!!!

You could get your bubble waffle flavored with red bean or matcha. Or you could get them plain if you wanted. I love being able to choose! Variety is the spice of life!

The service was nice. The young guy who helped me was so patient and that goes a long way!

The menu was easy to understand with lots of dipping options. Unfortunately, though, the ice cream was such a disappointment. I got a kids size vanilla soft serve with cherry shell. I got it in a cup to be neat. As soon as she handed it to me, the cherry shell smelled like medicine. Like a flavored cough syrup. And when I tried it, there was no flavor to it. Just tasted like sugar. Not even like melted white chocolate. I was disappointed.

I'm sorry but this is just not good ice cream. I wanted to liike it. Back in the 80s we had a place…read moreon Center street that had the best dipped ice cream, this is nothing like that.
