Even though we were "out of towners", the bartender was super nice to us. The food was great. You know how you can tell when a place has old oil they fry in? Not this place.

It did take awhile for food and drinks to come out. I had the beef tips, which were generously portioned and very tasty. Cocktails were OK, but a bit unbalanced. Their gin martini - titled "the best martini in the US" (sic), did not live up to its namesake, but I still enjoyed it. The number of vegetarian/vegan menu items has shrunk from our prior visit a few years ago. It would be nice to have more diversity on the food menu. The price was fair, and I would definitely return.

Barley Creek Taproom in the Pocono Premium Outlets is a refreshing upgrade from standard mall food…read morecourt fare. The limited menu centers on straightforward, easy-to-eat sandwiches and highly customizable flatbread pizzas, all complemented by the signature adult beverages brewed or distilled by the Barley Creek organization. The ambiance is decidedly casual and built for hanging out, featuring plenty of TVs tuned to sports and Pennsylvania lottery games, a couple of arcade games, a foosball table, and cornhole boards that make stopping by more of an experience than just a quick meal. For food, I opted for the chicken salad varietal of the Deli Sandwich ($12), served with lettuce and tomato on rustic white toast alongside potato chips, while my dining companion went with the tuna salad varietal of the Deli Sandwich. Both of us thought our basic sandwiches were well executed. I also took advantage of the Sunday Happy Hour from 12pm til 3pm and ordered a half-price pint of the Barley Creek Navigator Gold beer, a easy-drinking American blonde/golden ale that's very similar to Budweiser's flagship brew. The food and beer hit the spot for a casual lunch, but the service kept this from being a top-notch experience. Our server was noticeably stretched thin managing multiple tables plus a full bar. Basic details fell through the cracks -- I had get up and physically chase her down to ask for silverware and ended up with just a single fork delivered by another server. Payment was another bottleneck: after another server dropped the check, I was left standing awkwardly at the register for a few minutes while the service team juggled the other dining parties. All in all, it's a solid 3-star spot for the family-friendly vibe and solid food -- just be prepared for potential lulls in service when they're busy.

Service…read morewas a little slow at first, but picked up throughout our meal, even as the tables filled up around us. The espresso martini tastes great and was well-made. The Jack Frost Martini was delicious, like a Blue Hawaiian with lots of coconut. The classic margarita was also well-made and hit the spot after a good hike. The cheesesteaks are huge and so delicious, the meat is thinly sliced and very flavorful. The Caesar salad was great, it had plenty of dressing and the addition of the steamed broccoli and fried shallots were such a great addition. The onion soup was also super flavorful and very tasty. The pimento burger is huge, well-seasoned, and my friend really enjoyed hers. I thought the fries were kind of thin and crunchy rather than soft and pillowy with a crunch, but we still ate all of them! The view overlooking Lake Harmony is gorgeous, and the inside of the tavern is really well-decorated in a beautiful blue. The bathrooms were very clean, and all the staff were very friendly. Highly recommend stopping here to relax after a day of outdoor adventure!

We recently had a really nice dinner with family and friends at Nick's Lake House Restaurant…read more One thing that we really enjoyed was the large amount of seating inside and even outdoors as well. The outside of the restaurant overlooks a really gorgeous lake so you have the opportunity to sit out on a deck, which is very, very nice. Depending on the time of year you can have just a really nice calming meal. On the inside the atmosphere is cool. There are a lot of TVs to watch sports and the menu's pretty good too. There was quite a selection, everything from burgers and sandwiches to salads and even pizza. In general everyone enjoyed and it was pretty packed when we got there on a Thursday evening. That's always nice to see that a lot of people are going there to sit down and enjoy meals together during the week so we really enjoyed it and you may as well too.

Because that's setting a precedent. Booth seats, cushions are all worn down and torn up. They were not comfortable. The sangria was good, my Tito's peach tea that I ordered. That sucked, could hardly drink that. All you tasted was vodka, there was no tea or peach flavoring at all. For the size of the pizzas they're very pricey. And jeez are they greasy...as soon as you pick it up, your fingers are drenched in oil, or grease. And they don't even give you enough napkins.
