This is Leo's Old Pub not the new Leo's on Main Street.

Atmosphere: rectangular bar to the right of the entrance with plenty of beer signs hanging on the walls. Comfortable, though can be loud at times when busy.

Selection: 36 taps with a handful of Micro's. 18 Taps on each side of the bar, with 1 side pretty much devoted to BMC and the other side Micro based with some of your usual suspects (Guinness, Stella, Bass, etc...Out of these, you will find 4-5 good quality Micro's. Some of the different beers on tap this night that I have never had before: Arcadia Cocoa Stout, Long Trail Hibernator, and Alexander's Keith IPA. I really liked the Hibernator.

Price for a pint is reasonable $3.50 to $4. Tuesday's is $1 off pints.

Food is decent; I have eaten here many times and really never had a bad meal.

Service at the bar is much improved than years past. They actually have bartenders who like Craft beer and want it to succeed. For example, a couple of years ago they had Nugget Nectar on tap which I couldn't believe. I ordered it and the Bartender commented directly to me "How can you drink that crap?" Thankfully, he is gone and is now bartending up at the new Leo's.

Bottom line: Selection of Micro's is getting better here. In the past, they had 36 Taps with mostly BMC. I believe Management is making a concerted effort to bring better beer to this part of PA. This area is a Craft Beer wasteland (mostly BMC crowd), so it would be nice to see this place get established as a better beer bar.
