The Wayside Inn - Bethlehem

The food was delicious and the view was great. I just wish we had arrived earlier. I now know where to eat when I'm in this area.

We have had multiple meals at The Wayside and we highly recommend it. Sara, the owner, ensures a exceptional dining experience. She also makes a great martini. The menu is innovative, nutritious, and incredibly tasty. We enjoyed incredible short ribs, a heavenly chicken dish wrapped in bacon, a mouthwatering Bolognese, and refreshing and unexpected salads. The Wayside is a hidden treasure. The chef is truly talented. You will absolutely enjoy the culinary experience.

A spectacular meal! Our whole party enjoyed it, including a vegan diner and an extremely picky child. The staff was attentive and understanding for our mysterious children, the atmosphere was festive and funny, and the food was amazing.

The restaurant has a beautiful historic inn atmosphere with superb service and delectable food. It is located in an area with limited dining options. My only small critique is that the portions were on the smaller side, especially the Bruschetta small plates. I ordered a salad with grilled salmon, but the salad was more of an appetizer size. I suggest offering half and full size portions with corresponding prices. The piano music added a nice touch to the evening. I would definitely dine here again.

My wife and I totally enjoyed our time at The Wayside Inn. Sarah and her team were very friendly and truly took care of everything, especially additional ice! Our room was lovely filled with charming furnishings. The room was clean and we could hear the flowing river...very relaxing! The breakfast (included) was great. Sarah was the breakfast chef and made a delicious 3 egg omelet. We ate dinner one night and we were not disappointed. I had a mushroom quesadilla a major hit for me! My wife had a salad which was very good. As expected, my wife had the cherry braised beef short ribs and she raved how good it was. I had the duck and was very happy it came out a perfect medium rare. Being able to talk with Sarah, I heard her vision of what she would like the inn to become. We can't wait to go back and see what improvements come next. Treat yourself, go to The Wayside Inn!
