Susquehanna Brewing Company

Reviewed By NKPBerkshire

I visited for a charity event and was BLOWN AWAY. I have been to many breweries and tasting rooms. From the outside, SBC looks a bit industrial. Inside, the tasting room is as warm and friendly as a neighborhood pub.

The beers are exceptional. Pick a favorite? That's hard. The lager was a workingman's everyday dream. The imperial stout was divine. I am not big on shandy's so I skipped those.

All in all, I can't wait to go back.

Frances Slocum State Park

Reviewed By tandhgoraj - Swedesboro, New Jersey

Beautifully kept park. We seek about places we haven't been to for hiking. I was looking at another park when this popped up. I had just finished a book where the main character was Francis Slocum. It is an amazing story about a young Quaker girl that was taken by the Delaware Indians.

So...not only is this park well kept, had lots of bathrooms for those of us that are bladder challenged, is loaded with trains, family friendly playgrounds, bird watching, boat rentals, camping, fishing, and hiking on various types of terrain. In the colder weather they have sledding and ice skating.

Awesome place!

It's an institution! Ellis Market Catering provides the buffet that's worth paying the little extra for dinner and show pricing. Ice cream bar for dessert. They put on EXCELLENT shows here! Though it's community theater; hard work goes into every performance, and it shows. You won't be disappointed.

Reviewed By Sara A - Chapel Hill, North Carolina

The animals we saw here were ducks, peacocks, goats, chickens, alpacas, sheep, calves, cows, horse and a pig. Some animals let us pet them. The ice cream was good, although the line can get quite long on a hot day (proof that people like the ice cream.) They also have toys for the kids to play with when you are done eating your ice cream.

Love Love Love this place. The girls who run it are very welcoming. Don't hesitate to give it a try. The classes vary from beginner to experienced, but you don't have to do something if it doesn't feel good or work for you. Very relaxing

PNC Field

Reviewed By Ellenlyn - Pennsylvania

We had such a nice day with family and friends. This field is home to the minor league Rail Riders (NY Yankee franchise). The players are fairly good to kids requesting autographs. At the end of the game we saw, they allowed little ones to run bases. You can order food delivered to your seat(for a fee). It's a great location - The field is immediately off route 81. There is a good shopping center, a cinemark, a visitor center and hotels nearby. Seat prices are reasonable ($10 -$14). You pay $2 to park and $4 for water. A nearby ski resort has summer water park and zip line activities so you really can make a weekend out of your ball game plans.

F. M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts

Reviewed By fancy128 - Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania

We've seen many shows at the Kirby Center and I highly recommend it. It's beautiful inside and always clean and well maintained. There really isn't a bad seat in the house. Some seats you can see the stage better depending on the event you're attending but your experience there isn't ruined by any bad seating. We were fortunate enough to get front row seats for our favorite band a few years ago and if you ever have the chance to splurge to see your one favorite, DO IT! It was a once in a lifetime thing I'm glad we spent the extra money.

Sky Zone Trampoline Park

Reviewed By Linda N - Wyalusing, Pennsylvania

Four grandchildren (6-9 yrs) had an absolutely wonderful time here. We went at the quieter hours (early afternoon), as found online while making reservations. The staff was very helpful, through beforehand questions as well as on arrival and first-time confusion. I can believe that crowded times would be a bummer for getting space to jump, but our kids had no problem with the lines. We will go again, as it has become an instant favorite. BUT we'll choose our times carefully.

Very nice experience.
A place to eat in the middle of nowhere.
Eric, our server was very professional and very friendly.
We ordered a tuna melt which it was fabulous and a tuna salad.
French fries and soda.
The salad was also very fresh.
Liked very much the place, and old lodge, rustic !
Very glad that we stopped there for lunch.
