Starters, nestled beneath the massive Riverport complex, is as polished a sports bar as you’ll find in the Lehigh Valley. There are 25,000 square feet worth of TVs (there are more than 60 total), tables, a patio, a second-floor lounge, a coffee shop and a game room. Be aware that the nights and weekends skew toward college-age crowds if that's not your scene.

"Great place to watch games, but that is all."
By eatingthevalley from bethlehem, January 8, 2009
Sub-par food and service, reasonable, if only the food was any good. Try elsewhere.

Best Places For Pub Grub and Glug
My playlist includes some of the Valley's most stellar bars. In considering what places to choose, I thought of the atmosphere (fun and possibly dance-friendly), the food (cheap pizza and wings), and the booze (more than just Natty Lite.)
