Pier 49

1^st and best bar of my local tour. I would give 5 stars but they are in the middle of transitioning owners and their menu is typical bar food. But as the best bar in town I recommend that they go bold on their menu with a few comfort options. They have nothing to lose. Impeccable service with a fantastic kitchen staff. Just boring food. Still love them though

If you are looking for a great burger in Harrisburg, this is the place to go! The service is mostly great, but when things get busy in the evenings it can be a little slow. The food is totally worth any wait though! They will customize any of their dishes to your taste, and they have great prices.

This is a small local bar. The service was very fast and friendly and the wings were fantastic. Make sure you get them finished on the grill, it adds an extra dimension to the flavor. The burgers are just as good as the wings.

Pub 49 is awesome! Quick stop for lunch. Wings were so tasty! Owners are engaging and service was excellent. Our new stop when in the area!

This place is just a pub… until you realize the service is the best you’ve experienced in a very long time… until you bite into a juicy burger that is favorable and well presented. The waitress/​bartender was absurdly conscientious by today’s standards.
The ONLY reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that we did not have a good sample set of the food (we split a burger and tots).
Bravo…we will be back if in the area.

Wonderful atmosphere. Awesome bartenders. Great prices and you can’t beat the laid back, home atmosphere.

Really does have the best wings in the area. A great place to catch the game or the race. Staff is great. Food is great. I bring my family here regularly.

This restaurant is now Pub 49. It reminds me of a true «Pub». The food is pub related (wings, Mac and chz bites, hamburgers, ect). There has not been one thing that we have ordered that was not delicious. The owner has talked with us several times an thanked us for coming. The waitstaff is always attentive to our needs. As far as noise is concerned, it’s a pub with tv’s, music, pool tables, people, and beer soooo that’s what you get. They welcome kids but I would say it’s not kid driven. If you’re in Harrisburg and want a great burger, wings and ice cold beer I would recommend Pub 49!!!

Love love love their food… So delicious! Owners and starf have done an amazing job here perfect place to grab a drink and watch some sports or have a nice meal!

Really solid nightly specials. Their $.55 wings on Sundays are a personal favorite. Friendly service and a good atmosphere with plenty of TV’s.
Update: Seems to be new ownership the last few visits and haven’t been that impressed. Prices went up, service and food quality have gone down. Too bad…

We’ve gone here twice. Once with our 4 kids and once just the two of us. The food is just down right nasty. Burgers are dry, fries were soggy almost translucent greasy. We only went the second time because we believe in giving local business at least two chances (everyone makes mistakes). You’ll be making a mistake if you expect to get good food here.
We are Harrisburg locals and this restaurant is yet another experiment from the many thousands of new yorkers who have emigrated here.

Food has been hit or miss. Same with service. Seems like waitstaff are kind of immature. We may give it another try.

I took my family here while we were staying at Great Wolf Lodge one night strictly based on the other 3 Unilocal reviews at the time (one 5 star and two 4 stars). The prior reviews are completely off base.
Even though there’s a kids menu, this place is not kid friendly and we should have known that when the high chair isn’t tall enough to reach the booths. We were greeted by a less than enthused bartender/​waitress who made us feel like she would rather be doing anything but serving a table of 7 (4 adults 3 kids) at 7 pm. This place is pretty much a straight up bar even though they have a food menu and tables/​booths and the crowd that was slowly assembling there was there only to drink.
The signs outside said best wings and best burgers in Harrisburg. This town must not have any other quality restaurants because I don’t know how they got these ratings. Granted I didn’t have the wings, and they smelled ok, we all had a burger or fried seafood. The burgers were hockey pucks, dry and tasteless. The bread was grilled to the point of being almost stale and the fried shrimp was overdone and too crispy. We didn’t bother complaining because we just wanted to eat and get out of there. I also ordred the onion rings as suggested by another Unilocal review, I wish I hadn’t. The onion rings were greasy and almost all the batter had fallen off between the trip from the kitchen to the table.
If you are young, have no kids, and only want to drink — then this place is for you.
If you want a decent affordable meal then skip this place and head over to Concord for Quaker Steak, Cookout, or Jim and Nicks.

Great place for a real, home style hamburger. They were huge! The french fries, onion rings and homemade chips were great, too. The service was friendly and the bar/​grill was clean and comfortable.

I really want to give this 5 stars, I really do. They know me by name. They have great wait staff that are more than «looks». The food assortment is nice and they will even reheat your food while your nursing your beer. The TV’s precisely placed with great selection from basketball, football, racing (witch these people love), news and premium sports channels. The only problem is for a sports bar, I wish the bartenders, waitstaff and owner would pay attention to the sports world. I go in there and the TV is on the same channel as ot was for the game last night. Maybe Im just a compulsive sports nut.
***On second thought they deserve a five

This is a «real neighborhood place» where people actual know each other. The hamburger was the best I have had in Harrisburg and the wings are out of this world! Service is top notch as well… Give it a try
