AJ’s Bar and Grill in Carbondale is a community-centric neighborhood pub and eatery with a corner bar vibe. They are said to have “the best chicken wings this side of the Lackawanna” and also have a huge indoor/outdoor pavilion. Inside you’ll find a bar (smoking permitted) with a traditional pool table, some games of skill, and cool signage everywhere. More importantly, you’ll find friendly patrons and staff who are inviting and personable. Sometimes when I walk into a corner bar, I get that “record skips, everybody is staring” vibe and that certainly wasn’t the case here.
