I've lived in the area my whole life and tonight was my first night in this beautiful, rustic, old Irish bar. Mariha made us feel very welcome. Great service and very pleasant conversation. The wings were beyond my expectations. Cooked just right. I got extra crispy mild and fries. My wife had a salad with grilled chicken. Cold beers. What a great night in a new(to me) local pub with great food, service and ambiance. Very, very clean. read more

Last time 5 stars, this time 2-3. What happened? Probably should avoid wing night (Tuesday) due to it being busy and pre-cooked wings. Unfortunately, our order tasted old, like maybe from the weekend. We ate 12 of the 15 wings. Sauce was light but the crisp was excellent. Last time the wings were perfect. A little bigger than I prefer (Kelly's are the perfect size for me), but not jumbo size. Sauce and crispiness on point. Still love this place, but we'll sample another of my old wing haunts the next few times we are in town before returning here. Too many good places to pass or just go to our favorite spot. Bartender is great and service always quick. Great little local bar with a good menu. read more

See all

Always great bar food. Recommend any of the buffalo items- especially the grilled buffalo chicken sandwich or boneless wings.

Best wings in NEPA. Burgers are great, too! Casual atmosphere, occasional acoustic performances.

Scranton Parade Day 2025: against my better judgment, I went down to visit family friends who were there earlier in the day for a family friendly fun and lunch. The bar opened at 11 AM, and their biggest seating area had reserved signs on it. Reserved seats on the biggest foot traffic day of the year! To make matters even better, nobody even came to sit at the table until an hour and a half later at 12:30. I can fully admit that my position has shifted a little bit as the food was very good and the service was very prompt (1 star is now 3 stars) But, having to squeeze seven people into a four person high top table when there was 16+ seats available for over 90 minutes is just another item of ridiculous decision-making I don't understand. read more

Mickey Gannon's - A yearly occurrence. How hard is it to get paperwork in on time? Closed for well over 2 months... because of paperwork. SHAME! - Pubs Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Best wings I have ever had! The wings have a perfect taste and are perfectly crisp! The wings are also pretty big which is great . The service is amazing with the nicest waiters.would 100%recomend. read more

Mickey Gannon's is a perfect example of a pub. It's everything you could want from a small neighborhood watering hole. The beer is cold, the food is good, and the atmosphere is warm and friendly. Tuesday is wing night and usually gets very crowded very quickly, but most any other night you wander in, find a seat at a table or a bar and settle in for a night of conversation and great bar fare. The best wings in Scranton, bar-none. They are always crispy and the hot sauce has a sweetness to it; just a basket of greatness every time you order. That being said; they don't come quickly. You need to plan ahead and order your wings almost as soon as you sit down, but they are well worth the wait. (They also have one of the best burgers in town, also) The prices are just about what you expect at a bar, and the parking can sometimes be a situation, but the bar itself and the food they serve are top flight and just cannot be beat. Try them! (They don't accept credit cards, so make sure you bring cash) read more

Mickey Gannon's - Nondescript, the way a great bar should be. - Pubs Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Driving through Scranton and wanted some wings and a beer. Couldn't have found a better spot. Bartender is super friendly and the wings were big saucy and crunchy. Best wings I've had in a while read more

Glad they reopened after being shut for a while. Wings have gotten much more consistent and are easily some of the best in Scranton. No longer "cash only" but does a surcharge for credit cards AND a pretty hefty $3 bleu cheese/celery charge for wing orders. read more

I love Gannon's!! Whenever I come home to Scranton one the first things I must do is go to Gannon's for beer and wings. I live in Cali now but I often day dream about those wings; nobody does them like Gannon's- spicy with a bit of sweetness and plenty of blue cheese and veggies. The service is always efficient and friendly. Aww! I gotta go home to have some wings! read more

I have been coming here for nearly 20 years now. I started as a tike coming for burgers and wings with my parents. Now as an adult I still return on a regular basis for a pint and an order of wings and fries. The set up is... lets just say a little off. As you enter the front of the bar you will see an average size bar area with a 3-4 tables of to your left and another tucked in the right corner by the bar. The odd part will be right in front of you. There is kind of a small "island." it is more or less a 12 x 2 lacquered over and a few bar stool to sit on. You can see one or two groups of people hanging out here. It is kind of a communal rest while you are waiting for a seat at the bar or a table to open up. If you take a turn to your left you will open into another room. There are several booths spitting the two rooms and as you enter the far room, more tables for your dining pleasure. Again you will see something out of the ordinary. And old bar agains the far wall. Not so strange you may say. Well this bar has long sense ben abandoned my it's tender, and now serves as a seating area for patrons. You make take up a chair at either side of the bar. Now on to the food. The wing here is King. The best in the city by my reckoning. Cook to the perfect about of crispy without frying it to a crisp. For company I personally order some french fries with a side of blue cheese for the dipping of these starch delights. To wash it all down I'll order a Lager pint. To be specific, for any out of towners reading this. "Lager" here in The NEPA refers to a Yeingling Lager. On to the staff! They have ben at this a long time, and know how to treat a customer. The proper way. If they seem to not be getting your next drink right away, it's because this place gets busy. And if it isn't, I have been know to look to my left and have a full frosty beverage sitting there without me even knowing it was once emptied. For the decor. It is a nice Irish pub! Down to the hard wood bar and tables. There are dozens of figurines on high shelfs. These figurines are caricatures of celebrities throughout time. And depending on the holiday at hand, they can be found dressed in a festive manor. To wrap this all up. Mickey Gannon's is on the top of my list, and it should be on yours too! read more

This is it. The best bar restaurant in Scranton. There is nothing unique/unusual on the menu just really tasty bar food. For my money these are the BEST hot wings in towns. Cold beer, good food, pleasant staff. My only complaint is that sometimes the place gets swamped because so many people know and love this place. read more

Mickey Gannon's is nice! Very good food. Nice inside. Nice neighborhood. Very good service. Jen was wonderful and even comped the SO's beers due to a 40 minute wait for our food! Cash only. I will return, hopefully sooner rather than later. :) read more

Excellent wings and BEST burger in the area! read more

Mickey Gannon's - a plate of chicken wings and celery - Pubs Near Me - Scranton, Pennsylvania

Cool bar/restaurant. Food is usually good. But not consistent. Good beer selection. Lots of space to sit. Was disappointed last time I was there. It was like 11 pm and there were little kids running around the bar because there was a party going on in the dining room. And no one said anything to anybody about it. When I'm out at a bar I Don't expect little children to be there. And I mean from 6 to 13 yrs old. Not one of my usual spots but I like the wings. When I order I usually take out. read more

Food is solid. But over $20 for 15 wings and an order of fries is CRAZY for Scranton PA. This is a top 5 wing place in NEPA, but it's gonna be a while before I return due to price gouging. I know chicken has increased across the board- but this is insanity. read more

I have been coming here for over 10 years. The wings are simply the best. Always cooked to the perfect crispiness. The sauce is always good. They put just the right amount on the wings. Never to much so they are drowning, and not to little so you are wondering where the sauce is. My wife and I also get the home made nachos. Never disappointing. All in all we just love the place. Has a nice cozy small town feel. That is something you cant get a big chain bar or restaurant. read more

Try the wings and you'll be back. Every time I come to visit my brother in Scranton, we plan to come here as a part of our ritual. It's a small town pub with the same decor as they have had for 20 years. Their wings are the best baked wings you could ever ask for and we also recommend the pierogies, and Caesar garlic fries are a staple. It's a greasy spoon but the best I've ever had. Every other wing place pales in comparison. Seriously- try the wings!! And Mary the waitress is perhaps the sweetest and attentive staff we have met, and she remains there after 20 years! read more

Always a fun time. Good beer. Great wings- unfortunately the whole place smells like them. After leaving, you will too.

Have going for years and tonight was the WORST. Busy but no one waiting for tables. Over an hour and no food. Two tables who came in after us got their food. Sorry but just didn't cut it tonight. read more

Great Place for wings, burgers, drinks and more! I've been going here since the mid 80's and the food and friendly atmosphere is as consistent as me! We love this Gem of a bar/restaurant -you will not be disappointed. read more

This is my favorite go to spot for wings. They are crispy and not overly saucy. If you get a mixed drink they use cans of soda instead of from a gun and I think that's awesome. Its a local place and gets busy on wing nights. They are cash only, which is the only downfall. read more

GREAT WINGS! Nice pub type spot in a nice area of Scranton.

Great little corner bar with an authentic Irish pub feel! priced right, try the wings!! You won't be let down!

Mickey G's is a loud obnoxious awesome pub. Everything I'm in PA i visit Mickey gannon's. It's a typical old school Establishment I love. One things for sure, this place gets darn packed so they must be doing something well. read more

Absolutely the best wings in the Country. On their worst day they are better than the others best.

Wings are very good and crispy but you need to order extra sauce with them. The decor is very old but nice for a bar. Wait staff great and ok atmosphere it is kind of an awkward set up. read more
