Favorite dive bar is Bethlehem! It is small and can be cramped, but you can't beat it!

Ripper's is cool because it has two rooms. The one "dining" area and then the main bar. Sometimes, esp in the summer and during Musikfest, it's get overly crowded and becomes a hassle when you have to use the bathroom or even get to the next room. Overall, it's a hole in the wall, it's a good time esp in a group of people. I like pub like bars over dance/clubs anyway.

Went back to Rippers, been there 3 times now. This time it was packed from all the people that had lost power due to Sandy. People were plugging in their cell phone charges and staying warm. Even with the large crowd service was still good and efficient. The previous times I was there just for drinks. This time I had a burger and an order of the poppers, both were very tasty. They had simple service on paper plates, not sure if that is normal or because of the crowd but it was fine by me. And the price is right. I think the burger was something like $5.50. Beers were about $3, even the scotch was inexpensive.

A dive-y Irish pub in its truest sense. This is a great place to stop and have a relaxed beer and a good time. The location is extremely small, so you experience may be a bit cramped in this two room establishment. There is a small dining room with booths and a tight bar area. However, if boozing is what you came for, you won't miss your mark. If you're looking for a dining experience, "bar food" is all they have to offer and you might be better off choosing another establishment. Surprisingly, for a small dive bar, Ripper's offers free Wi-Fi to its customers.

Not a regular, go somewhere else. Dirty, cramped, sticky bar and tables, and wacky (not in a good way). Better places in Bethlehem.

This fun small dive spot is located in the basement of a condo/office building. A bit cramped with lots of wood paneling and booths. Beers were cheap $2 on draft and the crowd was relaxed. We will return if in the area again!

I have a soft spot in my heart for little hole in the wall bars. My friend was in town for the weekend and we spent most of Saturday afternoon and early evening traipsing around Bethlehem. When we were all shopped out and on our way back to our car, we noticed this little bar on the corner and thought we'd stop in for a beer to wind down our day. WHAT A SURPRISE. I l-o-v-e this place. Bartenders were very friendly, and THEY HAVE PBR ON TAP. I am such a PBR girl, and I was very excited. Prices are extremely reasonable The bar was full, with the exception of seats not next to each other. A very kind and rough-around-the-edges guy was polite enough to offer to scoot down so my friend and I could sit together. We ended up sitting at the bar and talking to him for almost a couple of hours. I love going to bars where you can strike up conversations with random people...and this place has that going on. It's very unassuming, almost dive-bar like. I saw someone had a review about people there being rude to you if you're not a regular, but that's not the impression I got at all. Everyone was very friendly. I was completely won over when I noticed they had an Air Force Academy pendant behind the bar. Having grown up just north of the Academy, my mother and father (who is a retired fighter pilot) have sponsored numerous Cadets over the years. It is quite smoky in there, but that doesn't really bother me as I tend to enjoy a cigarette now and then when I have had a couple of beers. Enjoy!!

If you want a true pub feel and can stand the sometimes smoky atmosphere, Ripper's is for you. Prices are reasonable, locals who populate the bar stools are generally amiable. It can get super packed on weekends, especially if you come in through the bar door. Go through the other side door and you'll head into the seating area with tables and such. Small place that packs a warm punch.

A few years ago my wife and I attempted to eat at Rippers. We walked in, sat down waited 15 minutes without seeing anyone and left. After a viewing this evening my daughter and I decided to try this place out again. This time my daughter and I walked in sat down, waited 15 minutes without seeing anyone and left. Roosevelts took my money with good food and service. I was really looking forward to some grilled wings but without ANY service this place will not get my business.

Rippers is a cool bar. First time there. It's fairly small. I would expect on a busy night that there won't be any seats available. There's a slightly larger section of tables around the other side of the bar. I only saw the "Musikfest" menu, so I can't comment on their regular menu, but the appetizers were great and tasty. We decided to order practically everything from this menu. Wings, jalapeño poppers, fried veggies, bag of chips, etc. All very good. Fyi, they have a Touch Tunes to play any music you want! :)

Okay, so admittedly I am only really rating this place based on the restaurant half. I have no doubt that I might have had a different experience if I'd been at the bar for drinks. However, if a pub has a full menu and an entire section for seating restaurant customers only, I expect them to have halfway decent food. Plenty of pubs do it just fine. That was not my experience here. The food was subpar and overpriced. I got the pizza, which was pretty much on the same level as frozen pizza. I'm pretty sure the crust, at least, was pre-made. My friend got the Ripper's Burger. He said that it also wasn't very good; the roll was a bit stale, and the meat didn't taste very good. He also found a tiny little bug crawling around on it. Ew! On the plus side, service was fine (although it did take a little while to get our food -- not the server's fault, of course) and the drinks were just fine as well. The place has a nice atmosphere. I think I'd come back here to hang out at the bar, but definitely not for dinner.

Oh lord, I can not believe I have yet to review Rippers. This place is amazing. Don't come here for the food. Come here for a quiet beer with some friendly local barflies and great oil cooked popcorn. Some of my best nights in Bethlehem were had here with good friends. Tip: This is one of those rare gems where you won't feel like an alcoholic if you want to sit and have a beer mid day. Enough daylighting inside to remind you it's daytime but enough people to drink with that you won't feel like an outcast of society.

This place is a classic dive bar, but a bit classy in an understated way. Located on a corner in the heart of the historic district, it feels like it should be in Boston or Annapolis. Great pubs often require you to step "down" into the lower level, which creates a place that's cool on a hot summer day and warm and intimate on a cold snowy day. Crowd is friendly to chat up. The chicken salad on one of their uniquely soft rolls is awesome, probably the freshest thing on the menu. Good juke box, and they'll blast it if you ask. A really nice staff who have been there forever and treat people well, as long as you yourself are chill.
(4)Kyle S.
It's small, but the prices are good and the selection is nice. It has some sort of a German vibe to it, but watch out, because the second door to the bar is easily accessible to underage kids. I'm not trying to hang out with the little ones in an adult setting. If you're around, hit this place up either 2nd or 3rd.
(3)Deanna W.
I've only been there twice but had a really good time both times. It's a cozy, dark wood paneled dive bar (my favorite kind), with friendly bartenders and as another reviewer put it "friendly local barflies". That was the most important part for me!
(5)Glenn T.
Dark, smokey, stale food, dirty and an atmosphere of: "if you are not a regular, don't bother coming here" I got sick on a cheesesteak I ate there, as the meat is left to sit around all day. Cheap drinks, though. Not a place I frequent..and I AM a biker!
(1)Devon K.
I've been going here to get the Ripper Burger (~$5 without fries) every once in a while. It has a great texture and flavor, and every one I've had has been cooked very consistently, albeit slightly rarer than any requested doneness (if you can't stand slightly pink ground beef, go with a well done). It's served with the usual lettuce, tomato, and onion on the side, and cheese is optional. As a burger lover/purist in need of good places to eat lunch, that's more than enough for me.
(4)Frank T.
My friends from central PA came down to check the bar scene in Bethlehem. Knowing they enjoy horror-themed pubs (see Jeckyl & Hyde's) I figured Ripper's would be a great match. Plus they're no strangers to rough & tumble dives. About 2 minutes in, we all looked at each other, and THEY said: "Next?" Didn't even order a beer. Forget this place, no matter how cheap the beers are!
(1)Vanessa W.
Ripper's a local haunt where you can get decent brews and food inexpensively. It is tiny and smoky so if that's not your thing - skip it. It is pretty popular with biker-types.
(3)Dennis C.
There seems to be a clique here. A core group of patrons hang together and give polite but suspicious glares to non regulars. This happens anywhere of course, but it seems more strongly apparant at Rippers.
