The Nest is a great bar and grill in Bethlehem PA blocksfrom Lehigh University. We visited this joint after the football game. It's has a nice bar area with lots of panels to watch your favorite sports. To the side, it has a large area for sit down dining. They also have a bar outside with an expansive seating area. It is ideal for outdoor eating and drinking. The menu is eclectic and suitable for all tastes. I ordered the street shrimp taco which were awesome. It had a great combination of sweet and heat. They also offer a wide variety of drinks, sprits and cocktails. I highly recommend this place !

Fun sports bar atmosphere with indoor and outdoor bars This was our first visit to The Nest. Driving by it you many miss it. The door on the corner looks like any other building as you drive by. Inside you’re met with a long bar with 4 TVs. A narrow aisle between the bar and shelf seating on the other side. Stepping up to your right, there is inside table seating. Passing through the aisle, you met with a nice outdoor bar and uncovered table seating with 3 more TVs. I heard there was an upstairs but didn’t investigate. It soon became clear why it’s called the Nest. Eagles and their fans seem to inhabit the place. Actually seemed any Philadelphia sports team fans were welcome. The menu has an excellent selection of mixed drinks. Several taps had the standard national brand beers and a couple of craft beers. The craft beers seemed to be an afterthought. The menu listed “Conshohocken Brewery IPA”. I asked which IPA as CB has multiple IPAs. After a quick investigation, the answer came back: no one was sure. (My guess after ordering it and tasting it, it was their Type A IPA.) The menu includes pub munchies and “basket” food. You’re not coming here for the food. Other kinks they need to work out - no one knew the guest Wi-Fi password and cell reception at the back bar is not great. Overall, this should be a fun place to be on Sunday afternoon when the Eagles are playing. Or to grab a beer before a concert at ArtsQuest.

Absolutely incredible atmosphere, the only place that was open when we were here on a rainy day with our dog. We asked for a plain burger to be able to serve our dog while we were eating our dinner and they not only prepared it perfectly, but they cut it up for us and made sure it was nice and cool for her to be able to eat and enjoy immediately. This alone would have me giving them five stars, but on top of it impeccable food and incredible service just makes this an out of this world experience. Thank you guys so much.

We LOVE the Nest!!! Delicious food, great draft beer list, various cocktails, and an awesome inside and outside bar filled with TVs. This is the perfect spot to watch a Sunday football game, for a night out, for a weekday dinner... any day is a good day for the Nest! The bartenders are always so friendly. Highly recommend! (Their beer pretzels are to die for!)
