Best Places to Eat/Drink in Wilkes-Barre
A few readers e-mailed us and asked us to compile a list of establishments in Wilkes-Barre that they could go to after/before a Baby Pens game.
Here is what our loyal Wilkes-Barre residents and Wilkes-Blog faithful contributed:
#1. Arena Bar & Grille
-Highest recommended
-50+ beers on tap and like 200 bottles, great food, and it's fairly close to the Mohegan Sun Arena too.
-TV's everywhere, music playing
-A lot of the WB/S players like to dine here after games, so it creates a cool post-game atmosphere.
TripAdvisor: "If you are in Wilkes-Barre attending a Baby Penguins game and don't feel like the night's over, head on over to the AB&G.
Pretty good food and a huge selection of beer and other drinks. The waiters don't care if you are under age, they will serve you.
Great hockey atmosphere inside, with TV's around the whole place showing hockey games and/or ESPN highlights.
Some of the Penguins players are regulars there after games as well, and most of them are very nice and will get a picture with you/ sign autographs/ talk with you for a bit.
If you're a Pens fan, you must go here!"
#2. Lucky's Sporthouse
-Second highest recommended
TA: "This place is by far the best bar/restaurant to grace NEPA in years. Why would anyone pay the same price for a cookie cutter dime a dozen chain?
My group and I make Lucky's our game watching location! They have tons of TVs and draft beers, the food is great, and the service can not be beat in this area.
They have the most fun friendly staff I have encountered, and trust me they aren't bad to look at either!"
#3. Kruegels
-Fantastic beer selection, limited menu
#4. TGI Fridays
#5. Applebees
#6. Downtown Senunas'
-Fun bar, pretty chill.
#7. Hardware Bar and Rodano's
-If you're just trying to get drunk, go here
#8. The Cafe.
-"My #1 place", one die-hard WBS fan said.
#9. Leggio's Pizzeria
-Family owned restaurant, awesome pasta and pizza
-A lot of the players eat their pre-game meals here
#10. Katana
-A go-to for Japanese, although there are 2 places closer to the arena that aren't bad either.
#11. The Casino
-Contains Bar Louie, Ruth's Chris, Rustic Kitchen, Wolfgang Puck, and Johnny Rockets
#12. Mirikuya
-Hands down, the best sushi in Northeast PA.
#13. La Tolteca
-Awesome Mexican food and really cheap
#14. Cafe Toscana
