What People Are Saying About Union and Finch

“Union & Finch is one of those places that gets the balance right. Relaxed atmosphere, genuinely friendly staff, and a menu that focuses on quality without skimping on portions. There are excellent Mediterranean-inspired dishes along with plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, but one of the best values is the Burger & Beer or Milkshake deal. It somehow costs less than a trip to McDonald’s, except you’re getting Pat LaFrieda beef on a Martin’s Potato Roll. That’s a no-brainer. Brunch is always a banger, too. The eggs are consistently poached to perfection, which sounds simple until you realize how many restaurants manage to screw it up. Great food, fair prices, good people, and zero pretension. Union & Finch is an easy recommendation.”

“Some places serve great food. Others serve heart. Union and Finch in Allentown, PA delivers both. I had the Shrimp BLT with truffle fries and honey aioli, and every single bite was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and beautifully designed—the aesthetic perfectly matches the quality of the food. One of the highlights of our visit was meeting owner Ed Hanna, who shared how he moved his family back to Pennsylvania from New York City in the early 2000s to build something rooted in great food and family values. You can truly feel that passion the moment you walk through the door. On behalf of BlueBox Digital Media, we felt welcomed, well taken care of, and genuinely appreciated from start to finish. If you’re ever in Allentown, Pennsylvania, make Union and Finch a stop on your food journey. You won’t regret it.”

“Stopped in today for brunch with NO Reservation. Highly recommend you make one - owner worked hard and got us a table quickly despite being very busy. Wife and I tried different Mimosa flights. The eggs Benedict with shrimp and grits were tasty. Server was upbeat-food came out quickly - place was clean. Only issue we had was they had no medium tshirts with the design we wanted. Highly recommend dining here.”

“Everything was amazing. Food and drinks were fantastic. Bartenders were lovely. Would like to give a shout out to Lexi in particular who did not even take care of us but went out of her way to make the experience so wonderful. Thank you Lexi and the rest of the staff!”

“The server was the best part of our time here. She was attentive and gave really good service. I had to give 4 stars since medium rare is really served on the rare side and when my husband wanted a side of mayo, we were told “the establishment charges extra for sides.” It’s mayo and he was having a sandwich!”
