It's fire pit season in the Lehigh Valley! Read on for ways to enjoy them in all their festive fall glory.
1. blue grillhouse
4431 Easton Ave., Bethlehem | 610.691.8400 | bluegrillhouse.com
Fully covered with ceiling heaters, blue's vast patio can keep all its guests comfortable until the first frost brings outdoor dining to a close, but those who want to feel the fire's heat can take advantage of seating right around the fire pit and place food and drinks on a surrounding edge.
2. Promenade Shops
2845 Center Valley Pkwy., Center Valley | 610.791.9707 | thepromenadeshopsatsauconvalley.com
Across from the AMC Theatre and across from Red Robin are fire pits surrounded by Adirondack chairs. The Patio located in the center of the shops has soft seating, cell phone charging stations and games. Lovely places to alight during an evening out or to warm up during one of the many Promenade-hosted seasonal events!
3. Slopeside at Blue Mountain
1660 Blue Mountain Dr., Palmerton | 610.824.1557 | skibluemt.com
Blue Mountain Resort is also home to Slopeside Pub & Grill, where the outdoor seating looks out over beautiful vistas of the Poconos all year round. Fire pits with Adirondack chairs are perfect for drinks before dinner or after ziplining through fiery fall foliage.
4. Copperhead Grille
5737 Rte. 378, Bethlehem | 610.282.4600 | copperheadgrille.com
Renovations on Center Valley's Copperhead Grille location have added a 2,000-square-foot outdoor bar featuring a cozy and capacious fire pit centerpiece. Lounging on stone benches circling the fire is a great way to enjoy a chilly evening with a chillier drink.
5. OAK Steakhouse
323 Northampton St., Easton | 610.559.5510 | oak-steakhouse.com
OAK's glass-enclosed rooftop bar shows the sky for an outdoors-esque experience. In colder seasons, fire pits are lit in the center of counters, perfect for meandering around in the ambiance of hanging lights.
