Reservations only guaranteed for indoor dining. Outdoor dining will be open weather/temperature depending.

Taverns were a center of daily life in colonial times. They were the local, social and political hubs that spawned the thinking that led to the American Revolution. Tavern at the Sun Inn continues in this tradition offering a Colonial-inspired Seasonal food and beverage menu in a truly unique gathering spot.
Tavern’s culinary team is led by Billy Gruenewald. He offers a casual tavern-style menu that changes to match what is seasonally available and features some ingredients that would have been available to Bethlehem’s founders. Dinner is served on the Sun Inn’s second floor and light fare and drinks outdoors on the beautiful North Green when the weather permits.

Outdoor seating is first come first serve.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch here for my sister’s birthday! Love the old tavern atmosphere which is maintained well and decorated for the holidays. The staff was super helpful in getting my 95YO grandmother in with her wheelchair. The food was delicious (tavern burgers were popular) and the flourless chocolate cake was perfect: so rich and creamy (and GF)! Also enjoyed the stuffed mushrooms and hawk sliders (both very good). Thanks for being so accommodating and for the great service at a very busy time of year!

We've been dining at the Sun Inn for a very, very long time. It is our favorite place. Great food, nice menu, very nice wine selection, wonderful wait staff and bartender. It is a historic gem in downtown Bethlehem with as much amazing history as ambiance. Dining indoors is just beautiful and so charming. The patio in the warmer weather is fun and lively (and dog friendly).
