    My friend & I have made this one of our go-to spots to hang out when I'm visiting home in the…read moresummer. The first time we went in July of 2025, the hours were posted wrong online & so we showed up a few hrs early before their actually open time . A bartender arrived to set up the bar & was so friendly & accommodating to us. She offered to get us a canned drink while she was setting up so at least we had something to drink while waiting. Once she opened, she made us great mint mojitos! My friend & I returned this past July of 2026 & our amazing bartender Kelly was still there & remembered us! She even hooked me up with a complimentary jelly shot for my birthday. There was also a very nice male bartender there but I did not get his name. They had added a lot more seating like Adirondack chairs, couches and fire pits outside. They had a food truck there also which was a nice addition so when our other friend arrived the 3 of us nibbled on chicken potstickers, fries, a hotdog with chili and jalapeño poppers. Despite it being a hot day, they had a huge fan at the bar that makes it more comfortable, a mister in the bar area and you get a great natural breeze off the river anywhere else you're sitting besides the bar so this helped immensely. They had live music on the little stage by the couches so this was the icing on the cake! Luke Miller was great and unfortunately we had to leave before the 2nd guy performed. See you next summer Harrisburg Beach Club!

    Stopped by Harrisburg Beach Club this afternoon to take full advantage of the 80-degree weather and…read moresunshine, and it did not disappoint. The view is awesome and the seating setup really lets you relax and soak it all in, definitely a great warm-weather hangout spot. The bartender was smooth, quick, and knew exactly what he was doing, which always elevates the experience. Big bonus: they had seltzers on draft, which was a nice surprise and perfect for a day like today.

    I've passed Watershed Pub a million times and never stopped, so when I met a friend for lunch, it…read morefinally felt like the right time to check it out. Naturally, I had already done my due diligence (read: stalked the menu for a full week) and had a game plan. At the top of my list? The deviled eggs and the Kale Caesar salad with salmon. The only problem...I absolutely did not need $40 worth of food for lunch. So I quietly spent the week putting "deviled egg energy" out into the Universe, hoping my lunch partner would suggest splitting them. Manifestation is real, people. I arrived around 12pm and found plenty of parking out back in Watershed's designated lot, which is clearly labeled--a good thing, because parking in that area looks like it could get competitive if you're not paying attention. We had made a 12:15pm reservation (Monday lunch felt safe, but why risk it?), and our table on the enclosed patio was ready when we arrived. It was the perfect setup--sunny and bright, but still warm enough to be comfortable on a chilly day. The vibe was great, and our server was even better--friendly, attentive, and consistently checking in without being overbearing. Then it was time to order. I let my lunch partner go first and waited... "Do you want to try the deviled eggs as an appetizer?" Are you kidding me?!. YES. Yes, I did! We ordered the deviled eggs ($11) to share, and I followed through with my Kale Caesar salad ($15) topped with seared salmon (+$13), officially completing my week-long menu-stalking mission. The deviled eggs came out FAST, and in my excitement, I completely forgot to take a picture--which tells you everything you need to know. Each egg was topped with a cube of candied bacon that absolutely stole the show. Sweet, savory, and just the right texture to complement the creamy filling. We made quick work of all four--excellent start to the meal! Not long after, our lunches arrived, and my salad? Gorgeous. Like, actually exciting to look at. I dug in immediately and it delivered. The mix of shaved brussels sprouts, kale, and romaine gave it great texture, the dressing was well-balanced, and the red onion didn't overpower the rest of the flavors. But my favorite part? The garlic parmesan crouton crumble. No chasing rogue croutons around the plate--just perfectly distributed crunch in every bite. Genius! The portion size was generous, too--I made it through about half before calling it and boxing the rest for dinner later. By the time we were wrapping up, the enclosed patio had filled up significantly, which tells me this is a popular lunch spot--and for good reason. The food is solid, the atmosphere is great, and the service was spot on. That said...$40 for deviled eggs, a salad and water is a bit steep for an everyday lunch. For me, this feels more like a "treat yourself," client meeting, or special occasion kind of place rather than a regular rotation spot. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I be casually popping in every week? Probably not. But those deviled eggs? Totally worth manifesting!

    Atmosphere and seating around the exterior is on point. Really nailed the interior and fixing. They…read moredid a great job with heaters outside and retracting canopy blinds to make the outdoor space work in large swaths of the year. The main challenge: the food on two orders was a real miss. The review for the Greek salad was that it was one of the worst tasting Greek salads my brother has ever had, despite the attempt at some flare with phyllo on top. My second salad was equally uninspired. We didn't bother with anything else admittedly so perhaps their salad game is just very very weak, or a bad day in the kitchen. Hard to say; but wouldn't be bothering with their food again compared to hunting around.
