P.j. Whelihan's Pub Walbert - Allentown

This was our second option tonight because our usual spot was too crowded. I'm really glad we decided to give this place a chance. It's quite unique—you seat yourself upon entering. The dining area is small but cozy. The food was served hot and was tasty, though the fries were just average. You definitely have to try the peanut butter pie! I ordered the chicken cheesesteak, and it was great. Plus, the QR code payment system worked perfectly for me; I had no trouble settling the bill with my phone.

Stumbled upon this gem off the beaten track. Loved the quaint atmosphere and good food. Definitely a place I will return to.

Great place to get wings. Price isn't too expensive and the wings are big. You can also sit outside, which is nice. Never had a bad meal here

I visited a few months ago and had no problems with the bartender or my ID. However, this time it seems like nobody knows what a Pennsylvania ID looks like, and they also don't have the right equipment to scan it. It was frustrating waiting around only to be told I couldn't be served, while my boyfriend could be. The bartender took both our IDs to the back, and then her manager told her I couldn't be served, but she didn't even explain why. She just handed my ID back and said she couldn't serve me.

This was the only aspect that truly bothered me. When hiring staff, it’s important to ensure they treat everyone with respect and don’t consider themselves superior to others. I noticed that she carried herself as if she was better than the guests, and I believe that’s unacceptable. I see everyone as equal, regardless of age, and those customers deserved better treatment. While I'm sure she has her good qualities, my experience with her demeanor was disappointing. If you're going to work in a customer-centric field, it’s essential to avoid discrimination based on race, religion, or any other factor. Aside from that, the food was fantastic, and I really enjoyed my time at PJs.
