The Sturges Speakeasy

They should've called this the "Best Dressed Salad". I added the seasoned grilled salmon and voila...there is a party in every mouthful!

Yes it is grilled romaine, with candied pecans, dried cranberries, with fresh figs, grated Parmesan and served with a side of white balsamic dressing.

It tasted like party poppers were going off in my mouth!

Great place to go for a late lunch or early dinner by yourself or with friends.

This place almost makes me want to move to Harrisburg PA. We stayed there for 5 days and this turned out to be one of my all time favorite pubs. Perfect tap selection. TV screens on all the walls. Friendly bartenders willing to offer recs. The menu is perfect. Everything I ate was 5 stars, at shocking prices. One of the best salmon dishes I’ve ever had was $18. One of the best prime rib dishes was $29 (and I ate it for three days because it was the size of a dinosaur). That signature burger I’ll have dreams about. Don’t let the plating fool you, the flavor of everything is amazing. I only wish it was nearby so I could go there more often. Don’t miss this gem.

Ridiculously good 'pub food'. Black bean quinoa burger was one of the best I've had and the fruit side was full of fresh, sweet fruit. Decent craft beer selection as well! Cannot underscore value. For what you get, this is VERY affordable.

Stopped here while in town for a show. Tried something new. It was great. My wife had some special, chicken on a skewer and rice, that was great. Kiddo ate well with plenty of options. My burger was huge. Pittsburger I think. Gave me choice of cheese. If and when I return I will be eating here again for sure

Found this place by chance while in town visiting my so who was working at Hershey for the Halloween season. Such a cool neighborhood bar vibe which I love as a bartender myself. The bartenders were awesome and the food was amazing! So good we went back once more before we left Harrisburg bringing my son with us and the staff again as well as the food was incredible. Their burgers are some of the best I’ve ever had!! Great selections of beers as well! Hope to find our way north again to come back!

Eclectic pub with unreasonably good food. They’ve always got some fun specials on the menu — not just your typical burgers and pub fare, but also very good salads and funky appetizers. Gets crowded on weekend nights. Great rooftop patio deck in the nicer seasons. Reasonably priced and meals are big portions. Highly recommend.

I'm all for a good old fashioned neighborhood pub with good food and cold beer on tap which is exactly what this place has to offer. Stopped in for lunch and our food came out in no more than 5 minutes. Super fast service and relaxed atmosphere.

First time stopping by this place. Have heard nothing but great things about it. Ordered the Steak and Eggs and it was fantastic. Mimosa was delicious. It's nice to find a place local that is delicious not over the top pricey and has excellent service. This may become a weekly staple. The food quality was way better than the diners in the area that all serve the same foods done exactly the same way.

This place is an absolute win. We came on a Sunday around 10:30 and it was not super packed. They have 3 floors of seating, we chose to sat upstairs on the outside deck and it did not disappoint. They have fans blowing and shade to stay cool. Service was friendly and quick. The food was mouth watering. I got the BBQ Pork Belly Eggs Benedict and my partner got the Buffalo Chicken Breakfast Tacos. We both got home fries. Everything was delicious. They have a lot of variety on their menu. It was hard to choose everything sounded good. They also have plenty of beverages to choose from. We will definitely be back.

The food was amazing. Beyond a good value for what you get. Staff was personable and friendly. Very glad to have visited! I live over an hour away and it is worth the trip back to Harrisburg just to visit here again.

Prime Rib was out of the world, excellent!! Other food was great as well in our party ( Chicken cheesesteak, clams casino and bbq pulled pork sandwich) Prices were great as well!!

Great drinks, appetizers, and meals! The burgers are HUGE and the fries are so yummy. They have delicious ranch and blue cheese. Service was fast and friendly.

You get a whole lot of food for your money. Fun atmosphere and great drinks. My friend had the prime rib and it was enormous and delicious. Cooked perfectly and seasoned to perfection. The tuna appetizer was excellent. Seared and seasoned just the way I like it. The chicken wings were cooked to the perfect crispness. The beer was cold and there were lots of choices. The wait staff was attentive and on top of everything. Did I mention it was a great value? Obviously giving the location it can be somewhat difficult to find a parking spot but all you have to do is look for a bit. I would definitely go again next time I am in town.

Friendly! If you order a salad be sure to add protein. Such good value. Mac n cheese with hamburger+bacon is big portion and yummy.

Absolutely, I can help you craft a review for your brunch experience at the speakeasy. Here's a suggestion:

Title: A Memorable Brunch to Celebrate 22 Wonderful Years

Review:

My husband and I chose to celebrate our 22nd anniversary with a brunch at this charming speakeasy, and it was an experience we'll cherish forever. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere captivated us with its unique blend of nostalgia and modern flair.

The service was exceptional - warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Each staff member made us feel welcomed and special, adding a personal touch to our celebration.

Now, let's talk about the drinks and food - both were simply incredible. The drinks were not only delicious but also creatively crafted, demonstrating the bartender's skill and passion. The food was a delightful surprise, combining classic flavors with a modern twist, leaving our taste buds dancing with joy.

In summary, this speakeasy didn't just serve us food and drinks; they provided an unforgettable experience that made our special day even more significant. We're already looking forward to our next visit. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for making our anniversary celebration truly remarkable.

Great place in downtown Harrisburg. I had to kill some time while charging my rental EV. I’m definitely glad that I found this place. It has a rustic atmosphere complete with a deeply hued wooden bar. They have a full bar including specialty cocktails and wine. They also have a very good craft beer selection on draught and in the bottle.
The staff was friendly, helpful and efficient.
The patrons were very friendly and it was easy to talk with them at the bar. Cheers!

Stopped by Sturges Speakeasy on our way to a show at XL Live and loved the atmosphere! Friendly neighborhood vibe, good food, and excellent beer selection. Wait staff was friendly and accommodating, and our meals were delicious. We don't live near Harrisburg, but if I am back in town I would definitely return.

We rolled in with 25 k-8 female wrestlers and parents post tournament on a Saturday afternoon. The staff did an amazing job accommodating us. Excellent service and excellent food with awesome portions. I was impressed all around.

All three of us ordered something different. We were all more than pleased with what we ordered. The food didn't need any extra seasoning. Great atmosphere. That service was superb. Will definitely be taking my sister there.

Stopped by for dinner during the week while visiting Harrisburg. It was about 75% full, but was able to grab a seat in the bar area. Service was exceptionally fast and friendly. Bartender did a great job with the drinks, food, and making sure everything was going well.

Had a nice Speakeasy vibe where everyone was in their own world and conversation. Had a few TV's to watch sports. Many unique and local beers on tap. Ordered the Grilled Chicken and Shitake Mushroom skillet for the meal and the Jookin Bessie Beer. Food was very good and filling, was a large portion. Beer was good as well.

Will come back again when in Harrisburg for a relaxing meal and drink.
