The smell clings to your clothes, your hair, your soul -- I had to shower twice just to feel human again. The entire bar feels grimy and neglected, like no one's cleaned anything since the early 2000s. Floors are sticky, the air is heavy, and the vibe is just straight-up disgusting. If you enjoy wheezing your way through a drink while questioning your life choices, this might be your spot. Otherwise, do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else. I've been to dive bars. This isn't a dive bar -- it's a health hazard.

You can't ever go wrong with the "Best" wings in the Poconos, the MOST friendly staff, and a great outdoor deck to boot!! In a year of crazy rules and unpredictability, the Old Mill Pub has maintained the fun laid back atmosphere it always had. Definitely a must when in Sciota or even if you're just passing through.

The bartender didn't need to tell all the men in the bar about heed personal life, she wasted so much draft beer because she was not holding the glass right. The customers walked out because of too much head in the glass from the draft beer. Two customers had to change their drinks because of the draft kegs needed to be changed and the bartender didn't know how to change them. I felt bad for the Owner and was gonna leave my name and number Incase she needed a bartender. Another thing bartenders shouldn't be drinking behind the bar when they are working. I have been bartending for many years in NJ and PA.

I love them. The wings are a bit on the smaller side but sauce and cooking is great. The chowder flavor was great it was a bit thinner that I prefer and more potatoes would have been perfect. Lastly the special drunk grandpa pizza was great. Quiet in here tonight but it's a Sunday in a local pub so as expected.

I will leave it to you to decide whether Shakey Jakes Cafe is a dive bar, but they seem to take pride in it. As you will see upon arrival the door mentions that Shakey Jakes is recognized by Yelp & NJ.com as one of the top Dive Bars in Jersey. Bartenders are super friendly, helpful & professional. I sampled Bombay Sapphire, which is offered in a small glass or beer goblet...humm okay I'll bit let's go Big! I ordered the Steamed Clams, which come with croastini. On the menu it is offered with a Cajun Garlic Butter, I replaced that with just the regular drawn butter. Wow--wonderful nice size clams with the toasted bread, delicious. I loved it so much I had a second order. If you are are a steamed clam fan don't forget to sample the clam broth. This place is a keeper. I sent a picture of the front door of Shakey Jakes to my wife and son. I mentioned that "If I go missing this is the place to start." I showed the text to the Bartender, she got a huge kick out of it and said you are not from around here are you?
