Went intentionally on Thursday for half-priced wings. I hadn’t been there since before Covid, 5+ years ago. Why? I generally don’t like bar-food, but the wings were calling me that day. Before Covid, the wings were ok, from what I remember, but it was too busy and service people couldn’t handle the crowd. This time, there were only about a dozen customers total so service was great, everyone was nice and friendly. Dining area was pretty empty and had no vibe so I sat at the bar; bartender was very attentive. He decides when to close the kitchen, depending on the crowd, but usually 10:30pm, he said.
Wings were AWESOME!! Had 10 grilled wings , 5 with Kentucky Bourbon, 5 with Lemon Pepper rub, per bartender’s recommendation. Definitely going back for more. Cashier was on her break and eating wings too and offered me her sweet potato fries without me asking. Very nice of her (thank you!) and they were very good, too! With Yuengling and a coke, around $17. I say that was worth it.

Crosstown Pub has been one of my favorites. I've been coming here even before they were called this name. Unfortunately, the quality has changed and I was not too happy with my wings. The owner need to tell their cooks to remove the chicken feathers as much as they can because it's gross. See for yourself. Also, they only sprinkle the seasonings on one side of the chicken. Otherwise, once "I", the customer, have PLUCKED their chicken, the crunchiness and the tastiness is still good. And this is not the first time I've removed the feathers off of their chicken.
Our waitress was attentive and our food got to us fast. I have to say though, we got there around 11:30is AM on a regular workday so people were still at work. So, because of this I think it may be time to find another pub with cleaner wings.
And by the way, the feathers only becomes very visible on dry rubs. When you use liquid seasonings, however, you won't notice them but they are there!

Our lunch experience was truly exceptional. The service provided was outstanding; Ciera was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and consistently helpful throughout our meal. We highly recommend requesting her section if you visit. The culinary quality was equally impressive. Each dish was prepared to perfection, including the calamari, French onion soup, and a selection of four different breaded wing varieties. Every item was delicious, and we would highly recommend this establishment to others

I used to really love this place because of the size and quality of the wings. It has been awhile since I was last here but I heard that the wings have changed. They’re no longer those huge, succulent wings that would fill you up without any appetizers. They have an 18” pretzel that is good for sharing. Quality was decent. I’ll post some pictures of the wings that I had before they changed the vendors. Service was always meh, nothing great. If you do go, make sure you check the bill prior to paying. I believe they add on some extra charges that they didn’t do in the past including a 25% tip. I don’t even tip 25% at fine dining restaurants.
The parking lot can get full and what sucks around this area is that you can’t park in another empty parking lot after hours. Don’t park in that lot behind the restaurant, otherwise you’ll have some shady people put a boot on your car. I made the mistake once and some people came out from behind the bushes. They’ll charge you $125 to take the boot off. When I stated there was no sign that said no parking. They pointed at a sign that was hidden from view.

This is the idea of your corner sports bar. Incredible wings, including customization, and all of your sports facility favorites. Outdoor bar is amazing during warm, and even chilly nights with the fireplace, indoor has TVs galore and the bartenders/servers are always on top of what is on them. On my visit, they could have used possibly one more server but Friday of March Madness is quite crazy, so it did not ruin the experience by any means. Their specials are actually special, not prices brought down to what they should be, which is a trend around town now.
