Forksville Inn & Tavern is a lively, locally loved bar and restaurant in the heart of Sullivan County, Pennsylvania, where small-town charm meets big personality. Located along scenic Route 87 and just minutes from Worlds End State Park, it’s a natural stop for travelers, hikers, and anyone exploring the Endless Mountains.
At its core, the Inn is about community. It’s the kind of place where locals gather, visitors feel like regulars, and there’s always something happening, from packed weekend dinners to themed events, live music, and seasonal celebrations tied to the rhythms of the area. Whether you’re stopping in after a day on the trails or making it your destination for the night, there’s an energy here that’s hard to miss.
The menu blends comfort food with standout specialties. Favorites include the All-You-Can-Eat Fish Fry, weekly wing nights, rotating creative specials, and Joe’s award-winning smoked brisket, recognized multiple years by the Williamsport Sun-Gazette’s People’s Choice Awards and featured on the Pennsylvania Beef Tour. The kitchen is known for generous portions, bold flavors, and a willingness to have fun with the menu.
Behind the bar, you’ll find a full lineup of drinks and some signature creations, including rotating cocktail specials. The atmosphere is casual, a little chaotic in the best way, and always welcoming.
Visitors should know: it can get busy, especially on weekends and during events, and that’s part of the charm. Come hungry, bring your sense of humor, and don’t be surprised if you end up staying longer than planned.
