Reply to Staying in Canadensis, looking for a restaurant for our anniversary dinner in Jim Thorpe? by cateamanda7
Dinner: Definitely “Moya” for a quality dining experience, you’ll need reservations. Also check out the options at “Stone Row” and “Marion Hose”. Also not far but “The Gorge Eatery” at The Hofford Mill has great food as well.
Other Recommendations/Notes:
- “Notch 8” for PA Craft Beer/Liquor also good food in a bar setting.
- “Wild Elder Wine and Cider” for Charcuterie and Wine/Cider Tasting
- “Union Publick House” pitches themselves as “Jim Thorpe’s Dive Bar”, but it’s a real solid choice to get good food and drinks. Not for a fancy anniversary dinner, but if you’re looking for more things in the area!
I’d avoid Molly Maguire’s, it’s definitely a Tourist aimed restaurant. Not aggressively bad, but, pricey for very basic food/drinks. At least the last time I was there.
Double check what’s open when, the town is pretty quiet Mon-Wed.

Have fun!
