My son had a wrestling dual at Abington Heights... I was in the area early and needed a meal and a beer to take the edge off... Watching my son wrestle is an event that is makes me very happy but at the same time has me fending off a heart attack... Now for the review... This is a nice place, older crowd, quiet environment and a good craft beer selection. Upon entering, the bartender noticed me and seemed to read my mind. He knew I needed a beer and food menu and that I needed a beer immediately. I don't know if I looked thirsty, nervous or desparate... I ordered a 10pz stone double bastard, great beer! The bar menu is simple and typical for a bar... Everything you would need in a place like this... Mostly burgers... I ordered a Smeigel burger. The food came quickly and it was terrific! The burger was big, cooked exactly how I asked and covered with the perfect amount of onions, jalepeno's, lettuce and cheese.. The fies were hand cut and phenomenal... They came in a paper bag... Some of the best bar food I have ever had... I've been been to a lot of bars too... There were to bar tenders... They were quiet but attentive... I would recommend this place to anyone who is in the area without children... read more

Read the previous 5 reviews. They are all pretty spot on even the small critique of the O rings. They look a little well done the two times I've seen them ordered. Not a fan of them so I'm just speaking observationally there. However!! The Armettas have threaded the needle here. The place is so perfectly slotted between being pretentious like another nearby place and a diner. The burgers are great and unusual. I even had the Emma last night. A black bean burger. Totally prepared to be disappointed but honestly loved it and would have it again. Fries are awesome. Hands down!! I hate you!! Im trying to drop 10 lbs. they're not helping! Beer is diverse and very reasonably priced with real happy hour specials. They have Direct TV and this place will be a great destination for the NFL and college in the fall. Cheese steak have had twice. Excellent both times. Maybe the other reviewer caught a bad one? One critique/suggestion. Please add some chili, soups, ah and a red cabbage slaw to have with the burgers and sandwiches. I just know you've got a great version in you. Bottom line really love the place. Best thing to happen in CS gastronomically in years. read more

I though this place was excellent. The beer list is amazing and it was great to see some hard to find beers. The burger was absolutely in the top five burgers I've had. Great flavor, cooked perfectly, fantastic caramelized onions and jalapenos. The fries were as good as the burger. The wings were OK, I asked for extra crispy and they were still a bit soggy skinned. The table service was pleasant enough but a but rough around the edges and kind of slow. read more

Great new addition for Clarks Summit. The food is fantastic. I first had the burger with the mac and cheese and bacon (delicious), then I ventured out of my comfort zone when I went back. I had the Berkin Burger. Okay it was weird ordering it, it has fried bananas and peanut butter on it. It was amazing! Weird at first but amazing! Try that! Went back again, and had the Sophie burger, it has a delicious chipotle spread in it, so good. Okay, so I went back a few more times and had a lot of stuff. Both kinds of hand cut fries are amazing and their beer menu is great. So much on tap! By far a much needed addition to Clarks Summit with a great staff! Go check it out! read more

Good burgers and a nice selection of beers on tap and in bottles. Plenty of TVs to watch the game

Best burgers in town! We love the place. Great choice of beers, funky decor. It gets a bit loud when it's crowded, and parking is limited, but the burgers are worth it. read more

Great bar. Good beers that they update frequently, good vibe, really good customer service - bartenders and servers do a real nice job. A welcome addition to the Clarks Summit bar/restaurant scene. read more

Ok, you're on a diet, you are finally losing weight and you're BFF says let's go to NYX! I REALLY like the Mac n cheese with bacon burger. It has a name which I cannot remember except that it starts with the letter 'C'. It is spectacular. I was pleased with our service and the prices are not out of line. I just can't give a five star rating ever unless there is divine intervention. Regardless of a diet, you gotta try his place. read more

Excellent. Good beer choices, excellent wings, burgers and fries served by a friendly staff all in a cool space. Worth a visit. Limited menu but what is offered is very tasty. read more

Stopped in for dinner while in town for work. Great burger, excellent beer selection and friendly service.

Believe the hype. This place undoubtedly has the best burger in all of NEPA. The fries are fresh cut and delicious. You can get either white or sweet potato fries or hand breaded onion rings, all equally delicious. The roll is a fresh brioche. Burgers are cooked to perfection and the service is outstanding. The restrooms are impeccably clean and the draft beer selection is second to none. If you are in search of burger nirvana you need not look any further than Clark's Summit and The Nyx! read more

Great beer selection and the burgers were phenomenal. I will definitely be visiting this place again!

Amazing service. Great food. Great drinks. Try the burger with banana and peanut butter. A little nutty, but really good.

Easily the best burger I've ever eaten. Nice patio, extensive beer list and dog friendly. Fives all around!

Came here at 12:00 pm on a Sunday, so there wasn't much of a crowd. The menu is typical bar food with some interesting twists. Bartender was very knowledgeable about the extensive beer list. His recommendation was spot on. The food was excellent and the server friendly and attentive. I'll be coming back here for sure. I highly recommend it. I'd like to try is at an hour at which it was more crowded. read more

THIS PLACE RULES!!! People are so so nice, the ambiance is relaxing, and the food is simply delicious. If we are ever in the area again, we will be returning to the Nyx. Five stars. read more

Not too bad of a place, food was good if you're not really a big eater. Beer was nice and cold though, wish is good. Not a real big menu, and a bit pricey but not too bad. More so of a bar still than restaurant, it could be worse though.. Also no wifi, but that's besides the point. Over all The Nyx is a good place for a nice quiet hangout spot with your friends to drink. read more

See all

First, the good parts. Menu is great, burgers are fantastic, fries are good, wing bites are good. Beer list is the best you'll find in the Summit and just about everything on tap has a pitcher price, even the craft stuff. Very welcoming and laid back atmosphere, plenty of seating. Now for the weird part. This bar has an identity crisis currently. The crowd is a mix of hipsters, holdovers from the dive bar that used to occupy the space, and regular folks. No one is unfriendly or anything like that but one night you'll see guys in plaid and work boots, the next night you'll see guys and gals dressed to the nines, and other nights it is fedora city. And, despite being open for a few months, the place seems unfinished. In fact the entire second floor and second story deck are not finished yet and the lower level deck just got finished not too long ago. Also, the beer seems absurdly cheap while the food pricing is on par with what I'd expect to pay at a restaurant. I'm talking $2 for Stone Old Guardian and $4 for Ommegang Three-Eyed Raven and $9 for a burger. This isn't a bad thing, but certainly explains the odd crowd. Now, the bad. It is too bright for a bar, not the color scheme, the lights seem to be intentionally kept bright, either they don't have a dimmer switch or refuse to use. It also lacks any sort of fun vibe, in it's current state it is not someplace I'd take friends to drink and grab a bite, it's a place I'd go to talk shop with my business partner, grab a drink, and leave. The vibe wasn't helped by my most recent experience when I witnessed my bar tender get chewed out in front of me by and owner or manager and got the "what are you looking at" stare from said owner or manager afterward. This place has a lot of potential, I'm looking forward to changing this review to a 4 or a 5 as the place evolves and finds itself. read more

The food is so lack luster. We ordered a burger and wings. Both were so incredibly disappointing. The wings were covered in some absurd marinara like sauce. I found them to be inedible. My boyfriend seemed to enjoy the burger, however I found it to be very unseasoned. No flavor at all. The decor is odd and unattractive. I was told that the music could not be played louder by the bartender. It was nearly inaudible. We tried the establishment bc we were so excited to see a new bar in clarks summit! I was very dissapointed to see it was just an overpriced try at a being an urban, hip joint. I usually try a new place more than once, but I don't feel compelled whatsoever to try them again unless the menu changes dramatically. It was one of the most limited menus I've ever encountered ! The service was mediocre and we waited with empty glasses for a few minutes more than once. The bartender didn't question why we didn't eat the wings, nor wanted to take them home, which I would have thought was a strong indicator that we didn't like them! Also, we introduced ourselves to the owner, whom was very standoffish and seemed to care less about our experience. To put it bluntly, she was rather rude. All in all, we were incredibly dissapointed and will never return. read more

Great time there. Good craft selection and from what I hear I have to check out the cheeseburgers!

My brother said I "had" to try the CBR sub at the NYX. Well he wasn't kidding , food is amazing , great atmosphere. Best beer selection around ! read more

Can't say enough about this place. Good food. Great beer. Friendly service. Cool atmosphere.

Very good beer selection, and bar food is fantastic. They do those right. Tight table space, but clean. Servers could use some training, and forget about getting time at the pool table since the same 3 persons will hog it all night. read more

I normally love this bar, but i went there the other night and my food was made very very poorly with no attempt to make fix the situation. I was mostly ignored by the flirty bartender with a messy pony tail who was busy talking to every female in his view, and when i asked what their specials were instead of replying he handed me a paper and walked away. now, normally the food has always been great but when i received my burger i took a bite and the thing was hardly cooked. pink on the outside. i asked that he take it back and fix the error and he took it, and came back with a messier burger than before that looked as though it was taken apart, slapped back on the grill and pt back together with no thought, he then walked away without seeing if it was alright. I normally rave about their burgers but i will not be getting one any time soon. read more

Stopped at The NYX on a recommendation of a friend. Bar had a very nice atmosphere and staff extremely friendly. Drinks were great, but very disappointed with the food. Ordered the steak and cheese, chicken bites, and onion rings. The steak was so tough, we couldn't even eat half of it, the onion rings were so burnt, we had to send them back. We were surprised they even brought them out in the condition they were in. Hope they get the food figured out, it could really be a nice place. read more

Great burgers, delicious drinks. Wonderful new addition to our town. But on a Friday night it was impossibly loud. Had to shout to friends across the table, and gave up trying to talk after a while. Too many TV sets blaring, too many hard surfaces for sound to resound... That makes us reluctant to return too soon. read more

Give it a year. It will be gone. Food needs a lot of work. How can you ruin the wings. Outside dining - a nice view of the parking lot. See ya at the "Grill" or under the "bridge". read more

The Mac and cheese burger is my favorite. I'm always super basic when it comes to ordering things but I tried this and loved it. I get it every time. The portions are huge. They have gotten smaller since they opened but still a lot of food! read more

Went there with some friends, my burger was really good, but they ordered the hummus platter and the veggies were rotten. It is not that difficult to get fresh vegetables read more

This place is great. One of few spots locally that has an outdoor deck, and they allow smoking on said deck. The menu is somewhat limited to burgers, a few cheesesteaks, and a few apps, but everything on the menu is incredibly good. If you are a vegetarian try the Emma burger, which is a tasty black bean burger with a nice spicy kick! read more

This review is based on 2 separate visits to this restaurant. The service today was ridiculously slow. They had one guy waiting tables. The menu is really small. They have a few different burger options, french fries, and wings. The decor is nice I have to admit, but don't go there for the food. Also I ordered a soda because I wasn't drinking (had my daughter with me) and it was flat! My friends ordered wings and I didn't try them but they looked like day-old wings to me for some reason. The first time we went there was hummus on the menu and I ordered it. Thoroughly disappointing. Its not on the menu anymore.....I guess they figured out that they really don't have a good recipe for it. read more

Just spent an hour and a half waiting for a burger. Left without getting one. There are only burgers and apps on the menu; how can a burger not be ready in an hour and a half? read more
