Had my brothers Lehigh University graduation party here on Sunday night. A lot of the parents of graduates were concerned about the type of experience we would have based on some different reviews that were given on this place. We are all so glad that those reviews did not deter us from having a private party here! We were greeted immediately with energetic attitudes and smiles, and the staff helped us set up decorations we brought ourselves. The food was delicious and the space was beautiful & private, But the staff that worked our party is what made it perfect! Sara, who bartended and served the party, went above and beyond to constantly make sure that everyone was satisfied. She remained attentive and upbeat all night, despite how ridiculous we got. Sara & the other bartender - Jasmine, continued to serve delicious drinks well after the food was gone and past the time our party was supposed to wrap up. We appreciated that so much because we definitely were not ready to call it a night! Ive heard the rumors about this place and its owner, but the 3 individuals who helped our friends and family celebrate a huge milestone were AMAZING! I would definitely recommend using this place for a private event - I know we will again. We may even have to request the same 3 individuals to help us celebrate again! Thank you to Broadway Social!! And a special thanks to Jasmine, Sara & the tall, dark and very handsome gentleman (whose name I didnt get) for making our special celebration even more special!

My fiancee and I went there with some friends. Had great recommendations from them and ended up having an ok night. Lo and behold about 4 months later, we ended up getting a parking ticket from bethlehem parking authority WHILE we utilized the restaurants valet service. Why did we use valet? Because parking there is atrocious. Basically, there is no parking. So I ended up contacting the manager and he told me to contact Bethlehem Parking Authority. I called them and they indicated I needed to show a receipt for the valet service. Really? From July? Needless to say, for a restaurant that is supposed to be upper scale, Ive NEVER, EVER had any problems utilizing valet service at ANY restaurant in Center City or in King of Prussia. My advice is to stay away from this place. If theyre scheming on parking and their valet service, it makes me wonder what else is getting shorted for the sake of a buck. Now, Im on the hook for a 100 dollar parking ticket after paying 15 for "valet" service

Upon entering the restaurant we were not greeted by anyone in particular , we stood there for about 5 minutes before anyone realized that we were there. We got our table and realized that we may have to talk a little quieter due to the fact that the party sitting next to us was 3 inches away. We tried the duck fries which were a little heavier than expected but nevertheless delicious. Their banana bread is absolutely amazing but they ran out just in time to give us some. The party next to use got the last bit of burnt bread, though. We felt bad so we gave them some of ours. Overall a very nice restaurant, although a little on the pricier side taking account of the slow service but well worth the wait.

To packed , drunk people bumpin into you 2nd floor female black bartender ramin into people tryin to get through the crowd - not a social place or a place to have fun , no room to dance , no room to stop n figure out what you wanna do - but some hot girls - wow ! Its to small for so many people but if its not packed - a good spot - n 10 admission to not be comfortable or be elbow to elbow n havin drunk people pushin through ? Not a big fan - all i will say is definitely some hot girls ... Thats all they offered that some other places dont .

Nice club, love how they have an upstairs and downstairs..... BUT theres NOOOOOOOO Type of parking anywhere but the cvs parking lot next to it. I parked there for not even 10 mins and they called someone to towe my car. I had to give them 200$ cash just so they wouldnt take my car away, but point being dont make a club in a area where you are limited to parking, picked a bad area to put such a nice/decent club. Ill never go there again unless I have another modeling show there... Smh

Watch the FEMALESS. BARTENDERS They like to add stuff on your OPEN TAP. or will add what you ordered but the more expensive one. If you keep reading on the review. This is not the first time credit card issue. Specially on Thursday because of dollar mix drinks. If I have noticed it three times and I have being there maybe five times. I just dont tip them. One time I think she re-rong the order put dollar mix drink. And kept the rest in tips. Really wrong to do.

Had a goodnight last week but best bet is to pregame before you go you will be spending a lot on drinks that seem a bit watered down. Bouncer hit me on the head as he was passing by and I yelled at him but he kept walking like he didnt do anything. Would I go back there again? Yeah its not that bad of a place just pregame and avoid the angry bouncers and you will have fun. My honest opinion about Broadway Social. -SouthSide Local

Cool atmosphere, good service, but our food wasnt that great. We had the sausage and hummus(undercooked), fish tacos(which we personally didnt like), and i ordered jumbo shrimp(which came out as large size shrimp and they were room temp(not chilled). Great atmosphere, people were nice, just hit a bad night for food? It was our first time, but probably wont go back for dinner there again.

I ordered the Filet Mignon, which was excellent. The Broadway Social Club has a slightly upscale feel, with though the service was a little slow and music selection seemed a bit confusing (wide variety ranging from 70s to modern dance). There are TVs at the bar (sports) with plenty of available seating and seemingly a nice place to meet for a drink.

Ive been told to stay away from Broadway social by many people before because of its general skeevy-ness and various credit card issues. However recently when I heard about the owners majorly disrespectful response to objections about his problematic Cinco de Mayo poster, I decided not to go ever.

The owner of the bar straight up threatened to use his connections with the board of trustees to effectively silence a girl from Lehigh or worse... absolutely disgusting. If you are a member of South Bethlehem or Lehigh I would suggest going to Rosies instead- they dont threaten students.

Unique menu with good choices. Prices a re a touch high and the service was OK. Good atmosphere and a full bar. The place seemed clean. I had the flatbread and it was good but a tad overdone (one piece was about half burnt). Id go again for drinks.

Im honestly just not a fan between covers some night, how bad my ears ring when I leave, how there is little room to navigate the bar, and the patrons who can vary of their skeeviness
