We dined at The Perk tonight while in the area visiting family. Given the high reviews, we thought this would be a home run. This seems to be the place the locals go to have a beer and a nice meal. Having been in business since the 1800's we figured they're doing something right. The parking stinks, they have a small lot but a sign that says employees only. Street parking was a bit tough to come by. We were sat immediately and the place has the feeling of an old Bennigans. They have a fairly large menu of bar food and a few entrees. We started with the French onion soup. It was good but not great. The flavor was mild, lacked the bread but the cheese was good. For entrees we went with the crab cakes and stuffed flounder. My wife enjoyed her crab cakes although they were a bit dry. The broccoli she wasn't a fan of at all, she didn't like the cheese. My stuffed founder was bland and not fully warm all the way through. The crab imperial was good but the overall dish just lacked flavor. It was one note of just old bay. My roasted potatoes were good but they were very stingy with the portion. Only received 5 halves, strange amount if you ask me. The cole slaw was great. It was the perfect balance of acid and crunch. It was very fresh. Overall it was an okay meal. I wouldn't go out of my way to stop back in. The service lacked IMO, our sever wasn't the most pleasant and she rushed us. 2-3 stars all day... read more

The service is awesome by friendly, knowledgeable staff that actually listen. The food is outright delicious. The ambiance was casual and with a full house was not too noisy. read more

Great Food and drinks. The service is usually above and beyond. I can get noisy but it's always worth it.

Great selection of food from The Perk - something for everyone. The sweet potato fries with chipotle mayo were so tasty and crisp, maple salmon with broccoli and mashed potatoes was a great meal, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream all at a reasonable price. Our waitress was very attentive making sure that we were taken care of the whole time. Nice little local spot in Perkasie - would definitely come back the next time we are in town. read more

I went on a Wed. night and the place was packed. I had to wait 20 mins. for a table which was not a problem. It was totally worth the wait. The food was excellent. I had the New Orleans pasta which was great. Nice creamy sauce and not too spicy. I also had the perogies which were cooked to perfection. read more

Didn't like that they didn't take reservations. The wait for us was 45 minutes long. The bar area was super packed on a Friday evening. The appetizers were great - hot and tasty! Good portion sizes. We ordered the beer battered onion rings (yum!), Old Bay fries (with cheese sauce that we wanted more of because it was so good) and the giant Bavarian pretzel (tasty and fun to share and came with that delicious cheese sauce). The entrees were simple pub fare. Nothing stood out there except the mac and cheeses (regular and buffalo mac) were really tasty. We had enough for leftovers and was happy for it! read more

During COVID-19, this has been my mom and I's go to spot since it is close to her house. When we arrive we are always seated right away and sometimes we're allowed to pick where we'd like to sit outside, which is nice because I love tables with a little bit of more shade. The staff has always prompt with getting our orders, checking in, and clearing the table. Since, I am now pescatarian my options are pretty limited at The Perk, but I always enjoy the Caesar Salad, it's a nice portion size too. I'm usually sipping on a cider or their Sangria, which is pretty strong (yay)! In the future, I hope The Perk creates an extended menu for vegetarian/vegan options. Tip: The Nacho's could be better. The cheese is melted on and the taste was kind of bland. read more

Still trying to figure out the allure. Went on a Sunday. It wasn't busy. Ordered potato skins, soup special and flatbread pizza special. Nothing was very warm and all was bland - pizza reminded me of Ragu pizza sauce on a Thomas' English muffin with American cheese melted on top. My son ordered steak with mashed potatoes and got buttered whole potatoes. Steak was so so on flavor. Pretty much overrated bar food. read more

Food is always delicious and they are always willing to give extra sauce/less sauce. Whatever our tastes asks for it ends up PERFECT! Staff, very friendly, and although extremely busy at times.... On top of everything! I highly recommend! read more

OMG, the food is deliciousand reasonable. The wait staff exceptional. I highly recommend it.

Great service & good size portions. Lunch was delicious Grilled Chicken Sandwich French Onion Soup read more

The Perk is a staple when we visit Perkasie. It has something for everyone. We usually get the Buffalo chicken sandwich on a hoagie, pirogies, any of the burgers, or the veggie grinder. All delicious! read more

We went on a busy Saturday afternoon for a late lunch. We have kids and our server was more than patient and efficient with her service. We waited about 15 minutes for a table but no biggie at all. The atmosphere is cute and cozy! We had wings, the pretzel, French onion soup,fries, a burger, kids hot dog and pizza. Everything was delicious. Came out hot and tasted great. Especially for the price. My husband had draft beer and it was crispy cold! Will be back for sure! I love that it's family friendly too. I'd support a local place like this over a chain any day!! read more

Love the atmosphere. Best roast beef sandwich around!!

This restaurant is always good. The food is always freshly prepared and they have great specials. I've been here about three times or so. Two of the times I've gotten a seafood special either stuffed flounder or salmon. Both were incredibly tasty and probably one of the best fish dishes from a local place. As much as I love the food - did I mention the super creamy and buttery potatoes or the fresh and perfectly cooked veggies - this place is tiny and always crowded. The place has several dining areas but the waiting area is SMALL, the bathrooms are SMALL, if you are claustrophobic - wait outside, but cross your fingers that others don't have the same idea because there are only two benches amidst the well kept landscaping. I can't imagine how bad it must be in the winter when everyone is bundled up - how tight the waiting space must be. And just one long bench. They so apparently call your name over a speaker if you should choose to wait outside. They could invest in heat lamps. If you don't mind waiting an hour to be served really tasty food then stop by! The food is always a hit. read more

Only downside is how busy it gets. Go early, at 4, for dinner. Great food, reasonable prices, and lovely staff.

Everyone loves the "Perk" and I am one of them. That said, I was a little disappointed with the onion soup I had today. The cheese was not Gruyère. It seemed like they used flavorless mozzarella. Hope they make a correction. read more

We have never been disappointed by any of our choices. We have taken friends and family their many times and have completely enjoyed the food and attentive staff read more

Loud , crowded and not worth the wait. It's just a Pub. There are others in downtown Perkasie.

Have to say this was one of our favorite places while living in PA. Their specials were super especially the Philly Cheesesteak. The service was fabulous along with great cocktails. read more

A typical town eatery in the center of Main Street. Deceivingly big inside. The food was great - from pub grub to entrees. Great burger, sautéed pierogies(can't beat it), Hot Brown excellent. Super atmosphere, great server - Becca. I will definitely come back & you should try it also. read more

Always love coming here for a good bite to eat. Usually friendly staff and quick seating & eating. Although we live in CA we always love visiting family here in PA and this is the last place we visit before heading home. read more

Best place to eat/drink in the town of Perkasie. Everything there is delicious and the staff is excellent. A true staple of the community. A+++ read more

Fun place to get quality food and hometown vibes. Highly recommend almost everything on the menu.

I really don't understand what the whole hype with this restaurant is about. We waited almost an hour for a table at four something waited very long for the food which I understand. They were busy but it's nothing to talk about very bland. Very generic wasn't worth the wait. read more

I need a place like this in MY neighborhood. But then again I would probably gain 80 pounds if I did. I'd be there a couple of times a week. The Perk is a comfy, old corner-type pub, with a great lunch crowd and very good pub grub. Their menu is extensive, so if you can't find something to please your whimmy desires you might as well stay home. My friend and I split three things, and it was too much food. We started with the sauteed pierogies which had a terrific pan-sear which made the outside crispy and wonderful, and surrounded by these amazing sweet caramelized onions - 5 stars Followed up with an order of the honey sriracha glazed wings. The glaze was very tasty, the wings themselves needed to be more tender to grab a 4th star - 3.5 stars The turkey BLT was good. Bacon was cooked perfectly, the turkey was quality and the artisan wheat bread was the winner - 4 stars The regular fries side to the BLT were nice and crisp. Beer selection was good but I hate when my first choice after reading the full draft list "kicked just last night". Take a pen and cross it off the beer menu. I definitely look forward to my return visit the next time I am up that way. read more

This place is great. I love the cozy seating, the old school feel of the building, the servers are great and the menu has such a plentiful mix of options. You definitely won't be disappointed. Oh and the desserts are pretty stellar too. I recommend the Carousel Burger and the steak sandwiches. We also enjoyed the pirogues, and know that a lot of the stuff comes with homemade chips which are good but you can upgrade to fries or other stuff if you want, I personally prefer getting something else other than the chips. Try the chocolate cake for dessert if you're a chocolate on chocolate lover. read more

Always on key w food great cocktails. It's always packed. And very loud commitment place

Good was good, along with services and atmosphere!! Would definitely recommended to family, singles and couples. read more

It was a beautiful day and enjoyed the Celtic festival in Bethlehem PA. The day was over and my stomach was growling in my Kilt. Don't judge lol I have great legs. I Yelp the local area, about 5 miles away was an establishment The Perk In a small town of Perkasie. Very clean outside and decorated nicely with attached roof lights. The interior had a decent size bar and was very comforting. We ate at the bar and my GF ordered a chocolate butterscotch martini which was made perfectly. We both ordered the Flat Iron steak with mushrooms and sautéed onions. Now I have been to quite a few up scale steak joints and I'm not gonna lie here. The Flat Iron steak was a nice size, done to perfection and had a very enjoyable flavor. I personally thought it was done better then some of the more pricey places. With two steaks and 4 drinks the bill was $64. If I'm in the area again I will definitely return or maybe even drive the 50 minutes to eat there again. Great job to the chef and owner, along with the welcoming and pleasant staff read more

We go to The Perk regularly for a meal out as I dont want fast food or the prices of fancy restaurants The Perk gives you delicious food at an affordable price with a great environment I highly recommend though if you are hungry or have to eat in a specific time that you call ahead for a reservation as there is typically a wait time due to high demand read more

You honestly cannot beat the food and prices here. It's a town gem and for good reason. A dear friend and I came in for a later dinner and only waited about 25 mins to be seated on a busy night. Service was very attentive. Food? Basically, the sweet potato fries here must be what angels eat in heaven. It's only my first time here so I cannot say much, only that my coworkers won't stop raving about it and I can easily see why. It's budget friendly and very tasty. Comfort food at its finest? You bet. Will be back. I don't think that's even a question. read more

As i sit here sipping my coffee and letting my Uh.Maze.ing meal settle, I MUST write this review. Hands down, exceptional. The food was delicious and a steal for the money. I have never had so much food in a to go package. Our waitress Linda, could not ask for better service! Friendly, personable and knowledgeable...all you could hope for in a server. This was our first time here at the Perk, and we all decided, despite living nearly 30 min away, this is going to be our family go to spot! Kudos to management and ownership for having such a glorious establishment. read more

That Perk is simply the best. The atmosphere, the service, and the food are all phenomenal. Even with COVID, the wait times are usually not that bad. The sandwiches are very good as well as the appetizers. Their Panko chicken dinner is my favorite. The portions are huge and I usually end up taking some of my dinner home. I would highly recommend The Perk for anyone in the area! read more

The food was amazing. Becca the server was outstanding. thanks for a great experience.

Always a safe bet for a good dinner. The wait times can get a bit much during a dinner rush but they are rarely over 30 minutes. Cold beer and great food. Cheesesteaks are a favorite. read more

In town on business and this was highly recommended. Very cool location and building. Service was great, lots of different menu options. Went back for lunch each day in town. Will definitely come back if I travel back through here. read more

The perk was not on its game . So been here a many times both lunch and dinner . I would say sandwiches and appetizers and stuff like is good. But we had dinner last night and it was bland and not cooked right . Hubs had the shrimp tortellini. It was awful. I really mean it. Take it off the menu. The sauce was so bland and then it had like 3 shrimp. And then all I could taste was the water that the shrimp were boiled in. The waitress took it away. I mean there was no helping this dish. It was in season less bland seafood water. Ok... the grilled chicken. First 1 very tiny over cooked slapped with the sauce poured over top of it like clumps chicken. I'm going to say it was sooo rubbery I had also the roasted potatoes. 4 tiny half potatoes No seasoning again! This chef really doesn't like to season food. Oh and applesauce that had must of been next to cheddar cheese cuz I found specks of that in it. Gross. Sent that back How .. I dunno. For the price of the food it just was not good. Thank god we order the giant pretzels and we got soup or salad with the entrees. Cuz otherwise we didn't eat. Very disappointed. Service was great. Loved the waitress. She was amazing . Place was clean as always. Just will stick to lunch sandwiches from now on because the entrees need a helping hand in many ways. Like seasoning and not being cooked to a rubbery tough perfection that a sharp knife felt like it wouldn't do the job. The perk needs to step it up. This is the second dinner experience we had that sub par. Lunches with just sandwiches and apps or salads or soups are always great. Maybe the chef is different or they don't rush the food but will stick to lunch only here. The waitress did give us a discount for our disappointment. And asked if we wanted to exchange it for something else but I just wanted to go. read more
