    Mild wings pack a perfectly balanced sweet heat!
    Laura W.

    Classic mountain eating establishment/dive. There is a pool table in the dining room and a bar in the connecting room that showcases a trophy moose head. More of a hunters bar that serves great food next-door than a restaurant, yet in many visits to The Wilderness I've neither seen nor heard the bar crowd and it's been family-friendly to our kids, gramma & the wallet. Out of the way but worth every mile for their succlulent wings. Sandwiches & dinners are ALL tasty & worth a try, too and the prices can't be beat for -at least- a mountain mile.

    Great mountain bar!  Moose galore.

    The wings are absolutely spectacular, you won't find a better wing anywhere in Mifflin County.

    The staff at this tavern are standout good! They were warm and welcoming to us travelers who were…read moreclearly not their regular locals. The waitress had a sense of humor and helped us with suggestions for breakfast in town the next day. The owner saw us looking out the window at some large birds and he swiftly showed up at our table not only with our tasty pierogi appetizer but with a portable telescope so we could watch the baby eagles across the river learning how to fish with their parents. We had the wings (good inventive flavors!) and the special (smoked chicken, mashed potatoes and lemon zested peas with gravy) that tasted like a fresh pan sauce and was flavorful and definitely homemade tasting. What kind of tavern takes the time to add lemon zest to vegetables? A place that cares about the food they serve! And did I mention the beer was very affordable? We really enjoyed our dinner here and think the folks who live nearby are lucky to have a spot like this.

    Rock Bottom is a seriously local, family owned establishment outside Lock Haven, PA. This charming…read morelocal pub has nice views of the West Branch of the Susquehanna River and exceedingly friendly staff. I first visited Rock Bottom with friends several years ago--shortly after it changed ownership. It was a pleasant stop, but things have continued to improve. The owner has improved the river view by carefully tending a riverfront lot across the street and keeping large windows. There's also a side deck with river views. Thus family-owned establishment has great service and a friendly clientele who are welcoming to all. The tap system is currently offline but Rock Bottom has a nice selection of domestic bottled beers. Four stars only because we didn't have a chance to try the food; bar service was great If you're in the Lock Haven area definitely check out this local jewel. You'll have a good time and probably make some new friends.

It was not the traditional apple forwarding kind of cider (think Angry Orchard or 1911). It was early so the place was quiet. There were some outdoor seats (tree stumps) in the back and we opted for a high table inside since it was a somewhat muggy day. Will have to come back again to check out other offerings. Would love to sample more :)

There was only one person working there when we went and she was very friendly. The cider is apparently made by one person alone and she was literally canning the cider when we walked in. We got some 4 packs for take out. They have special varieties for COVID - Plum, Passion Fruit and Peach. All were excellent! The flavors were very genuine, not too sugary. When it came to the plum, it really tasted like you were eating a plum (mild plum I suppose). They were also very nice and accommodating given the outdoor dining everyone was doing - they allowed us to use the restroom and fill up our water bottles so we could eat outside with the takeout we got. All in all an excellent experience. The varieties on the website sound great and we hope to be back after COVID is gone to check the place out in full swing!

    So a "real time" review as I am sitting at the bar awaiting a replacement order…read more It is hard to describe the burger I was served. It was way over cooked but that was not a full description. In addition to being charred beyond well done it was also very dense.... Definitely not a coarse grind. The combination was a patty that was inedible. Ate less than 1/4. Why not a worse rating? The female barkeep was so attentive and on top of it that it was still a decent meal. Happily replaced it with a 1/2 dozen wings which were very good.

    The wings are the ONLY thing worth paying for here & mediocre at best. We've tried other menu…read moreitems several times & all were a disappointment. This one takes the cake & costs the Hilltop any repeat business from us. The pictures are SUPPOSED to be of the 8oz Haddock Dinner for $18.99 & the French onion soup for $4.99. The fork in the picture is for reference only as the food was completely inedible. Sadly, we ordered it all to-go & didn't realize it was all terrible until home (over 1/2 hr away). The haddock dinner was burnt, not 8oz OR haddock & it was missing the lemon butter/bread crumb topping as described on the menu but had an abundance of paprika. I believe they switched the haddock dinner order with another paprika haddock dish on the menu - but conveniently forgot to lower the price. The French onion soup was a cup of broth. No croutons or Swiss cheese in it or on the side, as described on the menu. Sadly, this was take-out & we never looked until we got home (over 1/2 hour away). All over-priced as all inedible. Totally feel cheated. Email with pictures sent to management - received absolutely no response.
