We were in Allentown for a comedy show at PPL. It was a Thursday night - their burger special night. I got the smash burger and my husband got the Union Burger. We got the cheese curds appetizer. Everything was absolutely delicious. Burgers came with a beer or a milkshake. We got the milkshake! Also delicious! Our server was so sweet and helped us decide what to order. Such a great find!!!!
