Ikea has great prices for a good product. Of course the prices are right b/c you put it together yourself. Also the return room is awesome! My husband can put anything together so it's worth it for us. Plus I love some of the trendy stuff but don't want to spend a fortune, Ikea is perfect for that. $5 for a set of sheets my kids will puke or pee on is a fanatastic price! When you have kids your understand LOL. And also I LOVE the cafe! The desserts are delish and gluten free!

Although it wouldn't make sense for a nothern location, but Margarittaville would be so cool. Or even Jimmy's Cheeseburger in Paradise. They are fun, with good food and $2 landshark lagers.

There is a Cheese Burger in Paradise in the York/Harrisburg area. I think one could work in Scranton.

What we need here is a White Castle. It blows the doors off every other fast food joints. There's some kind of rule in the franchise not to open west of jersey.
There the creators of the hamburger i believe or the bun... I can go for a box ofliders right now

FYI...I didn't read this entire thread, but in the beginning, Quaker Steak & Lube was described as being located in Danville. Actually it is at the Buckhorn exchange on I-80, which is near Bloomsburg PA.

NEPA could also use an Isaac's Restaurant & Deli. There are many in Centeral Penn and they have really good food.

Yes, I saw that - in Dickson City! As soon as I saw the familiar white siding with the green and yellow stripes on the exterior, I knew!

I just hope it doesn't take as long to renovate that building as it did the one at Buckhorn - seemed like forever for the place to open there. It certainly was worth it though!
