Flavors of Allentown

The Allentown bar that can't seem to keep a steady tenant is back for another go, this time with a heaping side order of LGBT pride. It's not a gay bar per se (you'll find those at the other end of the strip), but the rainbow-flag motif that's all over the decor at Flavors of Allentown testifies to its inclusive philosophy, and its all-female ownership team have crafted a much less fratty and testosterone-fueled (yet still divey) atmosphere than neighboring spots. Stop by for a beer or a cocktail, occasional live DJ sets, or Tuesday night league darts.

Nietzsche's
The quintessential Allen Street dive, and the one where you're most likely to get a hint of what the neighborhood was like before the douchebros took over — to the extent that "colorful neighborhood characters" are still a thing in Allentown nowadays, you're more likely to find them hanging out here than any of the other bars on the strip. Kick back with a cold beer or stiff mixed drink in the affably grungy, whimsically decorrated barroom, or enjoy performances by local bands or comedians (the Rust Belt Comedy Showcase happens every Tuesday at 8PM) in the back room.

Nietzsche's
Nietzsche's stands out from the pack on Allen Street through sheer longevity; it's been presenting first-rate live music since well before most of the hipsters at the bar were born. In addition to the usual slate of local rock bands and singer-songwriters, Nietzsche's has been known to sneak in a nationally-known name here and there.
