My vote: Chick-fil-A. Closest ones are in Frackville, Allentown and Reading areas. The one in Reading is a stand-alone location, and much nicer than the mall-based version.

Either a Buffalo Wild Wings or Quaker Steak and Lube would be great.

Its a hot wing and steak place...a sports bar type of place. They're big in western PA, and I believe there is one kind of close to this area in Bloomsburg. It seems like they're moving east, and we may be next. I think someone mentioned on here that the original plans for the Shoppes at Montage has a Quaker Steak and Lube planned.

Quaker Steak & Lube is a great place to eat! When I lived near the place in Buckhorn we would often call in orders for their wings, which were yummy!

Also, on Sundays there's a buffet - don't know if that's still going on, but it was a great deal for my family of 5!!

The decor was pretty cool too - cars hung on the walls, some upside down; and tons of TVs all around so you can catch whatever sporting event was on.

Heading back down in a few weeks...I know I'll have to get some take out. They do have a website...


.: Quaker Steak and Lube :.

As for Buffalo Wild Wings...I only get there once a year, when I visit my brother in Wilmingon, NC, but I'll never miss the chance to have dinner there. Another terrific place to go eat - both places have great atmosphere, which adds to the fun!!

Mmmm...white castle .... I miss that about not being in NJ anymore for sure. Why is it that there isn't a single White Castle in the State of PA? :::whines:::

Don't know if anyone posted this, but I miss SuperTarget. I really enjoyed shopping there. The selection was better and prices really were cheaper than Super Walmart. I wish they would build one here.

I wish they'd build a Super Target in Pittston Township instead of the upcoming Wal-Mart Supercenter. FYI, Pittston Crossings is also going to have a Dick's Sporting Goods in case anyone is wondering.
