Up a Creek

Bartender has an attitude. Could make more money for the company if she paid more attention to customers than winning how she is hated by coworkers… great deals on menu but not worth my time to be treated like a degenerate.
Go down the road to watch Monday nite football

This place is great… much better than most bars in the area. They have an awesome back patio. The drinks are reasonably priced. I just went there and they have a new drink menu with cool mixed drinks for fall! The food is very good. My only complaint is the service. It’s hit or miss. One night you might get great service and another is terrible! But I would say it’s worth it to go, especially when it’s warm enough to sit on the patio.

Food was priced good and was good. Music was very loud if you are trying to talk to someone. Service was bad. Had to go up to a server to have someone come take our order or even get menus. Everything was dirty table, chairs, windows.

I work close to Up A Creek so I would meet people there for lunch. After 3 times in a row of completely terrible service I’m done!
This place capitalizes on the hip-​hop crowd after dark but tries to keep the Classic Rock crowd in there to foot the bill.
If there were any other options in Howland these guys would be out of business.

I read the reviews about the service but was appalled to see how bad it really was. We went this past Sunday and the place was about half full around 5 pm. The menu and prices were looking great but our table of three didn’t get a chance to sample it. we ordered 2 ice waters and one iced tea that took 15 minutes to get. Once we received our drinks and were ready to place our order but told she would be back. I am guessing the table of the three guys she was flirting with were more important because at this point she had already spent ten minutes at their table.
She came back after 5 minutes to take our orders ant that was the end of it. she went to put them in and returned to her «favorite table» for another 10 minutes. she then took another tables order and guess what??? thats right… back to the guys for another ten minutes.
My girlfriends mother went to the bar for a refill and even told the bartender why she was getting her own refill… nothing was said to our server. By this time one of our servers flirt buddies is now at the hostess station talking to her!!! Our order was now paced 45 minutes earlier and we had been there for an hour… sorry but we went to café 422 and laughed so hard about the service at up a creek that we were comped some peppers in oil… the service there was great… I guess 422 gets the 5 star that up sh*t creek could have had.

My 8 year old son and I used to go there and eat and watch football on Sundays. I used to like their food. Their wings and paninis were my favorite. This past football season my son and I when and with our Steelers jackets on and we were told by one of the waitresses that this was a Browns bar and Steelers fans weren’t welcome there. So I’ll take my business elsewhere and will probably be better off for it. The service is okay if the place isn’t crowded but if it’s crowded the service is absolutely terrible.

The ONLY time this place is worth going to is on a weekday in the summer when you can sit on a relatively empty patio (as long as it doesn’t smell like dead fish from the creek). Catch it on a weekend and you’ll be tripping over d-​bags, bros, and trashy guidettes. The bartenders are haggered and rude 9 times out of 10. Buckets of piss water light beers are a special? No thanks.

Fantastic outdoor area — best I’ve seen in the valley. Usually decent bands and a great vibe on a nice evening.
Food is pretty good and reasonably priced (as are the drinks). As stated before, this place is great in the summer when the outside bar is open.
The negative here is service — hit or miss, and when it’s a miss it’s really bad. It’s a potential goldmine if they get that piece figured out.

The atmosphere here is really neat. If you’re looking for casual dining, wings, burgers, salads, etc., this is a really good place to go. When my wife and I went here, I got wings and she got fish, both were good. It has a really cool patio area for outside dining in the summer and a lot of TVs inside, much like a sports bar.

Food fair but inconsistent. Lamb on Saturdays is great! The Creek is best in the summer.

Food is average bar food. have had the pizza (no thanks) the burgers are OK the apps are good but they are processed fried food so can’t do to bad… if you are going for dinner just know that its not a big place and can get loud do to the bar being in the restaurant. Met friends here for dinner there was a band it was so loud that I couldn’t hear anyone and they turn the three by four space between are table and our neighbors into a dance floor so I had some ladies butt in my face. I ended up leaving it became to much for me!

Sorry… I heard this place was good so wanted to give it a try. I can’t believe how poor the burger was overall. The bun was terrible and fell apart. My wife’s burger was burnt on the outside, and pink on the inside. It’s not that hard to cook a burger guys! Sorry… I won’t be back.

Just off of Rte. 82– Market St. exit is this bar and grill. Fantastic atmosphere and good food. Has outdoor seating with flatscreen T. V’s, bar and pool table. Prices are very reasonable especially on Monday’s (all day Happy Hour). We enjoyed several appetizers to include homemade hot chips topped with buffalo sauce and bleu cheese. The service was great (only our first time there however) and our drinks were never empty. On weekends you can enjoy live music! If looking for a place to have a cold one and some good food, I would recommend giving Up a Creek visit.
