Beta Bread Bakery — Restaurant in Clarks Summit

Edit- food is still great. Service is still rude AF. I hadn’t been back here in a while solely because of the service.

Original- The Best Reuben sandwich. Excellent selection of delicious breads. I keep coming back for the Reubens but honestly the customer service is bad. The only one who is pretty good at it is the guy with dreads. The owner, Mike makes an effort. The young woman with short hair is rude. No greetings, constantly complaining about customers, and does not make me (or others from what I’ve heard) feel welcome or like a valued customer.

In addition, the sandwiches we ordered, a NY Pistrami and Cheesesteak, we’re very average. It was definitely not worth the lack of basic customer service we...

The bread here is addicting. The scones are the best I've ever had, including a darn good one I had in Ireland once. Today we had chicken salad on rye and a hot pastrami on rye and they were both heavenly. Don't pass this place up. They close before dinnertime, so go early. They're right on the main strip in Clarks Summit, so bring a quarter for the meter. There are tables inside if you want to eat in. It's very casual. My only complaint would be that the place could use a cleaning because it looked like the floors were pretty dirty throughout. Honestly though, the bread here is so good that I don't even care....
