Shenanigans Fine Dining Restaurant

So when you travel to Lake Harmony, Shenanigan’s is a must stop! This blissful restaurant offers a wonderful experience for all to enjoy! Shenanigans hosts late-​night activities and encourages the patrons to challenge themselves to aggressive dance styles. If you want to express yourself freely, Shenanigans allows you to do so! The food is great and the staff is friendly!

This place is a riot. If you’re visiting Big Boulder for the weekend and looking for a bar, this is the place to go.

I never had a bad meal! Service was normal for up here. Nice staff! The younger crowd is in the club at night on weekends. The wings were very good and pot roast is fantastic. We will be back

Lady Mullets everywhere! All you can screw buffet… Not the best place for younger ppl.

From the moment we walked in to the moment we departed the service was COMPLETELY excellent! The food was good, karaōke was fun, the club next door played great dance music and the atmosphere and people were simply terrific. This was such an unexpected but valuable find. Kudos to ALL the staff who made us feel welcomed! You guys all ROCK!

My boyfriend and I have done karaōke here twice so far. It is by far one of our favorite spots to go and sing. We are traveling from New Jersey and usually stay at a hotel close by just so we can stay to the very end. The people running it are very good at what they do and make us feel welcome and part of the «karaōke» PA family. Check this place out if you want to make lasting memories with your loved ones and/​or significant other!!! It is worth the trip!!!

Actually walked out. Our waitress was nowhere to be found, twice we picked up our own drinks from the bartender. If this were the only instance I would not be so harsh, but sadly it is the norm. And this was a weeknight during offseason

Service was good the staff was really nice and helpful since it was our first time in the Ariea I think it’s. 10 times better then Nicks boat house right next door

I guess I was hoping for a better experience here than what I got. To start with the bartender, Doug, was a nice enough fella. but he was a little more interested in chatting with his buds than actually doing his job. As it was Wing night we decided to give them a try. They were .50 each so we decided to try 5 each of 3 flavors. No problem. However when I got the bill there was a charge of $ 5.00 for extra ranch and celery. I didn’t ask. for extra but I guess with having 3 different flavors they some how justify the upcharge. Well the only thing that did was to solidify the fact we will never be back. And hopefully someone reading this won’t either. Maybe they will learn not to try and rip people off

Fat boss behind the bar refused to serve me even though I provided three forms of ID, one federal and two from different states. He didn’t even have the courtesy to come over and explain why he wouldn’t take them but gave the waitress the job of trying to explain some b/​s that something wasn’t laminated the right way.
Overpriced food that doesn’t taste anywhere good enough for the price, and the waitress was barely attentive at all.
Will not come back.

Better than reviews would indicate, this place is classic American food. Fried appetizers were ok, tasted of oil a bit of old oil. The burgers and entrees are as described and service was prompt and polite. Prices were more than fair for food and booze was priced well too.
If your looking for good food and don’t need fancy, this is the place.

If you’re ready to wait at least 1 hour for food (on a not busy night) and not interested in good food, come here! I read the reviews and assumed the slowness was on busy nights. Don’t come here!

We were seated right away, on a Saturday night. Our waitress was attentive, and the food was at our table within 20 minutes.

I wouldn’t recommend coming here on a Friday or Saturday night for dinner, but as far as night life in the Poconos, this may be one of the best places to go up here. They have two sides. One side is the sit down restaurant area with a bar and they usually have karaōke. This is the more «low key» bar but still fun. But if you’re expecting to have a nice sit down dinner on a Friday or Saturday night, you may wait a while for your food and the servers seem rude and rushed. Although the food is good. It’s a mixed crowd and definitely a good place to sit down and have drinks. The other side is the «club.» (I have club in quotes because it’s the most club-​kind-​of-​place you’ll find on the mountain). This side has a DJ and dancing. The crowd here always varies and you never know what to expect. But the DJ plays good music and you can dance and have a good time. The bar isn’t huge and sometimes you end up waiting a long time for a drink. The servers here have sometimes been rude too, but that happens with a bunch of drunk people waiting for drinks. There’s another bar in this area that isn’t always open– but should be. You can go back and forth between the two rooms which is nice when you want to switch things up. There is a cover to get in just to the restaurant area at night which I think is a little ridiculous. Overall, as far as options for night life in the Poconos, this would be one of my top picks.

Saturday night of St Patricks Day weekend I would expect an Irish bar/​rest to be better prepared in the kitchen. We were told ½ hr wait for food but we waited 1 hr 5 minutes! Shepard’s pie was obviously done first as it was dried out and hard, half the wings had no sauce on them, medium burger was juicy red. No pint in asking to have meals fixed because it Would have been another hour. Food wasn’t good.
The reason I give it 2 stars is our server and the bus girl were real quick with our drinks and friendly.
Disappointing. People were leaving because they felt they had waited too long.

The only thing consistent with the inconsistent service is the quality of food. Being an avid visitor to the Lake Harmony region annually from NY, we tend to wander back to Shenanigans for dinner every time. Total crapshoot regarding the level of service you’ll receive and an even bigger enigma when it comes to delivering the bill and the hidden surprises it seems to ALWAYS contain. BUT… the food is always great. Just don’t ask for a lime wedge with your gin and tonic… or your fried chicken sandwich to be grilled… or have the last name Klein.

We weren’t expecting much due to the reviews on Unilocal but decided to give it a try. The fries were fresh cut hot and delicious. Service was great I had a fresh pot of coffee made for me. Worth the wait. Daniele was pleasant and quick.
12:30 on a Sunday the place was dead but at one o’clock it really started to fill up.
We had a cheeseburger that was chargrilled and very tasty. Pretty big so I didn’t finish.
All in all very tasty and we will be back to try something different!

Last resort type of place. If you’re willing to take a drive go somewhere else. On a good note the service is amazing and the boneless chicken was pretty good. Other than that the prices were unexpected and the cook tried to charge for everything that actually came with the meal. I ordered the new your strip lol it came with onions but he charged me two dollars for sautéed

It’s a nice place, food is a hit or miss. There is never a consistency of food quality when you go. They do have a good beer selection.
There is a club in the back which is pretty good however there is no need to get dressed up last time I went there, in a polo and dress slacks, there was a guy in a Walmart shirt and flip fops.

It’s a Friday’s but it’s called Shenanigans. It has outdoor seating and entertainment that apparently starts after 10:30
We came for drinks and Karaōke but Karaōke didn’t happen. We did not order food because we had already ate.
