Double burger with 100 lbs of bacon.
Gustavo C.

This is the kind of place you wish existed around the corner of where you lived. Great food, fresh ingredients, quick and extremely friendly service. The prices are ridiculously cheap. If you're in Hazleton you can't miss this place. Besides, this place has been around for at least 5 decades. I got the cold cut hoagie one day and a double cheeseburger with bacon (greasy and abundant) the next day. I came back two other times in the following months and made it a point to get the chicken, peppers, cheese, ham and egg, sandwich.

Great chow for lunch. Good prices. A nice local joint for quick good food. Remember this, they only serve sandwiches. Try the bacon cheeseburger w/ everything or the chicken chip steak and cheese hoagie with everything, except peppers.

The neighborhood eatery, candy store or just a hang out, Third Base was all of these for me growing up. Living d block away I was her everyday growing up for a hoagie, penny candy, playing the juke box or playing the video games that once had a place here. A family owned place in its entire existence, the Base always made you feel like you were family as well. The food here is made today as it has been since I was a kid. No changes you ask? When you put out quality food for so many years why would you need to. The cold cut which is my go to tastes the same ever time you get one for as long as you can remember. Nothing fancy about it just quality meats on a great tasting roll. The inside hasn't changed much over the years and that is perfect. A lot of places remodel many times to keep up to current times but keeping that old school look makes Third Base exactly what locals know it to be or remember it as.

I ordered a steak and cheese with peppers. What I got what a hamburger on a roll with hoagie spread. Disgusting!

Very friendly owners. Hours are not the best and the hoagies could be bigger. Still a town favorite.

Interesting Mom and Pop diner. Cute place, however, vegetarians might want to search elsewhere. It's a struggle in Hazleton.

So I ordered a chip steak and cheese through DoorDash. 1099 for the hoagie. Almost half was bread…read morethat was frankly too crisp but no one needs that much bread. Low on the chips steak and way too over cooked and very hard to find the cheese although I selected both provolone and mozzarella. All in all a dry hoagie and almost half was bread. I will never order from here again

We found this little gem in Hazelton when our vehicle broke down on I 81 and we limped in and had…read moreto spend the night waiting for the Ford dealership to open. It was a Sunday evening so we went in search of a place that had the NFL football games, beer and good food and we found it right here! Danielle was working behind the bar and you couldn't find a better bartender and great personality ... She turned an unexpected break down into a pleasant enjoyable evening. We started with their bruschetta which was a little different than the others we've had before in that it had black olives in it, but was very good. It was a large portion and came with plenty of toast points to enjoy it on. For dinner we split the fireside special which was a 6 ounce New York strip on Italian bread with fried onions & peppers. We opted for a mixture of hot and sweet peppers and oh my were the hot peppers HOT! But the sandwich was very good and all the ingredients were fresh. We met Ron, who I believe is the owner ... He was extremely nice about our predicament and even extended a recommendation on who to contact at the dealership that I believe helped us out the following day with our mechanical issue. It was definitely the service and friendliness of the staff at the bar that pushed this review up to a four star. The people of Hazelton are lucky to have such a nice establishment and great people in their area.
