East Mauch Chunk Eatery - Jim Thorpe

Down home country place. The portions were huge for the price. Had to take leftovers home. This will definitely be our go to place when we are in Jim Thorpe from now on.

While the first 90% of the dining experience was enjoyable and typical of what is to be expected from a small, local establishment, the last portion of the visit was distinctly different from a typical business transaction and unfortunately memorable in a much less desirable manner then is to be expected from a quaint town diner. After confusion at the register and not being permitted to split the bill, it was realized that the prices charged were significantly higher than advertised on the menu. Without providing itemization of the bill, the worker informed that prices had been changed. Being charged $28 without notice, however, for what was advertised to be $17 is unprofessional and unacceptable. When asked to provide an itemized receipt for the order, the worker handed over a $5 bill instead and considered the matter closed. Whether it is evidence of a pattern or simply a one off event, the attitude and lack of business integrity displayed in this interaction has left a bad taste in the mouth.

Exactly what you should expect driving thru town. Very small town diner. Clean. Could use some new cups. Prices on the menu were inaccurate, but still very fair. What you get for the price is really unmatched anywhere else these days. The chipped beef over home fries was the best I have ever had.

I love going on dates with my husband here. The food's so good and I don't have to worry about downtown's traffic. A nice place for the locals. It's so small that you never feel neglected.

East Mauch Chunk Eatery is a fantastic little spot for breakfast! It’s definitely a bit outdated, but that just adds to its charm. The food is always on point delicious and hearty, with portions that leave you full and happy. The whole place has a cozy, laid-back vibe, and the friendly service makes you feel right at home. If you’re looking for a good, no-nonsense breakfast, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
