"I want to make it clear that the service here is exemplary. I have never had a complaint from my family about anybody that works there. (Same goes for the old crew that worked there before new owner... The service here is consistently fantastic.)And the atmosphere is also really nice, very welcoming, charming, comfortable. It's got that cozy tavern/ pub feel at the bar. The rest of the place is very clean and the temperature is usually very comfortable in there (and on nice spring or fall days it's great when they open the big garage door... And there is outside dining in the back as well) and they have some really amazing historical art all over the walls. If you go when it's not busy, I would encourage you to take a look around at everything they have on display, most of it directly related to the history of Shamokin and this area. What a wonderful thing to preserve all that and share it with customers the way they do.When the owner is there, he takes the time to talk to his customers and he's very amicable and accommodating.Now here's my complaint and the reason I don't go anymore... When this new owner took over, he changed the menu. And I know it's common for new management to do this in restaurants and I was ok with trying all the new stuff. I am mostly vegetarian but I do eat seafood, so it's easy to work with my dietary limits. Their salmon is VERY good.The problem is, they took away one of the most popular menu items and so far it looks like they have no intentions of bringing it back the HARVEST BOWLS.Literally the very reason I went back to Heritage over and over and over, even getting takeout many times, was to get the harvest bowl with salmon, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts. It was such an original plate with an absolutely amazing flavor. You don't see it anywhere else around here. It was fantastic for a vegetarian option too, because of course you could omit the meat part but still have an amazing amount of delicious food, if you are a vegetarian that doesn't eat seafood.I've asked everytime I've been in there if/ when the harvest bowls will be back on the menu, and I'm told everytime it's gone and won't be coming back... therefore, I myself am not coming back. It's a huge disappointment, especially for my family, because my sons husband love it there as well.They also took away the mac cheese dish, which was a popular choice before, and another great vegetarian option if you eat dairy.While it is still a very nice spot to stop for a drink and/ or appetizer, and I would of course go for that, we won't be coming in anymore for full meals. The only remedy for us is if they brought the harvest bowls back or if they offered a lot more vegetarian options that are loaded with asparagus and Brussels sprouts that taste even more incredible than the harvest bowls were. So far I haven't seen anything that would indicate that's going to happen so I'm not holding my breath. Just super sad to know that I'll never have another delicious harvest bowl again.In summary, if you are a meat eater you will definitely find delicious options here. But if your friends or partner are vegetarian, not so much. You most certainly will not be disappointed with the service regardless.One more note that's important to be aware of make sure you put money in the meter if you go for lunch. The town does indeed ticket those who don't feed the meters."
