Crippled Bear Inn

I was speed balling in the bathroom stall when the head of the Hell’s Angels waltzed in looking for me. I attempted to find a bathroom window to escape through but to no avail!
So there I was no escape and T Dogg kicked open the door gat in one hand brass knuckles on the other. He took aim and his gun jammed giving me the opportunity to kick it out of his hand. He then took a swing at me and I ducked causing his fist to go through the wall. I ran out of the restroom as he dislodge his fist.
It gave me enough time to finish my beer leave a tip then run outside to steal his motorcycle! He was running out of the place shooting at me and yelling I’ll get you motherfucker!!! It was one of the greatest night’s of my life!!!

An all around great place to go for an easy laid back meal. Nothing fancy, just good food and drink at a great price. Wing night (Thursday) can be a bit busy, but most nights are. A local’s favorite.

If you haven’t eaten at the Crippled Bear you are missing out!!! You just have to love the country atmosphere and the great food. I have family in Washington DC who visit and always want to go there to unwind. Great place, great food great prices!

Visited my husband, who frequently travels to Williamsport for work. He raved about this place so I made him bring me for dinner. Food was AMAZING! Service is great and prices are perfect. LOVE the fresh cut fries and the daily specials rock. Will definitely visit Williamsport again just to eat here!!!

Awesome wings! Good service! Nice atmosphere! 50cent wing night sundays!

Excellent food and service! Burgers were out of this world! Cheesesteak was huge. Italian Panini awesome! Very reasonable prices.

Was coming back from bike trip to Atirondacks late cold desperate for a motel, it was the worse I’ve ever stayed in, ask about a place to eat and Crippled Bear was next door. I hade the Grizzley prime rib sandwich it was soooo good I ask the waitress if I would embarrass her if I licked the wax paper in the bottom of the serving basket. Planning a trip next month and will go out of my way to eat there again.

Great food, portions, and prices! The Crippled Bear Inn looks like a dive biker bar from the outside, but the inside reveals a more friendly, cottage-​esk, home style cooking restaurant. The food is priced very reasonably for the insane portions they give you. The burgers are massive and the salads are big enough for 2+ people to eat. They have different food and drink specials every night and occasionally have live bands. I’ve never been disappointed at the Crippled Bear Inn and you won’t either.

New owner. And still great place to eat. Different specials every night. Not sure which one is my favorite because they all are delicious! Sunday’s wings, Monday’s cheese steaks, Tuesday’s pizza or pork bbq. Wednesday’s tacos, Thursday’s wings, Friday’s beer battered fish and Saturday’s cheese burger and fries.
Also daily and monthly drink specials.
There is a very good variety of other meals on the menu as well. You can’t go wrong!

This little shack is a hidden gem in Williamsport. Great prices and the food is good. Friendly service. Cool history behind the place. My family of six ate lunch for just under $ 28. after tax, before tip.

I stopped in at the Bear while on my cross country trip. I had been here before and loved the cheap prices and great bar food. The atmosphere is just what I look for in comfortable bar, talkative entertaining locals and cold beer. I had a pork sandwich which was delicious but the fries were slightly rubbery. I like them crisp but this is hard to do when using real potatoes. Good Stuff! I’ve also had their wings, burgers, and their amazing Philly cheese steak — all good!

You don’t come here for the ambiance, you come for the cheesesteaks, which are WAY good! Very tender, thinly cut, flavorful meat, no fat, excellent bun. My only gripe is they don’t have Cheez Whiz. Two cheesesteaks «in the garden,» two beers, one iced tea, bill $ 12. Can’t beat itl

One of the best places to go to get really good, low cost bar food. Great sandwiches and wings. Every night they have some kind of special; taco night, wing night, cheese steak night, just to name a few. In the summer they have an outdoor seating area and it is here that they will have bands playing. I have never had any problem with service or the food. Both have been up to par. This is a great place to meet your friends and have good food, drink, and fellowship.

Great place for wing night. Service is friendly and gets the job done without trying to talk up a storm at the table. Some call this place a «dive bar» but it gets the job done and then some if you consider how cheap it is to eat and drink. Food quality can’t be beat for the price. I have never had a problem here. They do not take credit cards but there is an ATM to get cash. Outdoor dining is nicer than the inside but will go whenever
regardless of where we sit.

I’m visiting from Harrisburg and I wanted a beer and some good bar food, so I decided to visit this place because it got really good reviews. Wow, was I disappointed. It was about 15 minutes outside Williamsport, and did it show… this place is a hick bar. Now, I have nothing against hick bars but this place was awful. Small TV’s, 1 pool table, and the other customers were loud, foul mouthed, and generally weird looking.
The service was pretty bad as well. It took me about 7 minutes to get a beer at the bar on a Monday night! They were definitely under staffed but the girls worked there butts off (I gave them a nice tip because i felt bad). The food was average. Nothing great about it but it wasn’t bad tasting. The fries were definitely tasty and thats the only positive I could think about this place.
Summary: If your a hick that likes being around your kind, this is your place! Definitely the local watering hole and it shows!
