Wert's Cafe: A Taste of Home in Allentown

We decided to try it here again my son got the Lauren's Cheese Burger Club. He said it was good and wasn't extra greasy, different with a hard-boiled egg on top, but still tasty. Portions were good and had a side curly fries. I got the Kathy's Patty Melt, and that was super delicious as well, with amaerican cheese and salted onions. Everything came out hot except for my fries they tasted a bit old. The service was good. Our waitress kept coming to check on us which is always a plus. We got seated right away, and drinks were ordered right away as well. This is definitely a great local spot.

Wert’s Café is truly an Allentown gem! This family-run hometown favorite delivers everything you could want from warm hospitality, friendly faces, and delicious, freshly prepared home-cooked meals. Their atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, making you feel right at home the moment you walk in. If you’re looking for great food served by people who genuinely care, Wert’s Café is the place to go. Highly recommend! Especially the mozzarella sticks and burgers!

Came into Allentown on a work trip and was wanting to try something local to get a vibe of the area. All my research pointed me to Werts for a good burger. And like Julie’s said in the movie Pulp Fiction. “Mmm, This is a tasty burger”. I got the Jimbos cheeseburger sub with their special fries. The burger was outrageously good. Tasted fresh and home made with no greasy buns falling apart in your hand. Definitely recommend giving them a try!

It's a very busy place, offering varying menu items. They don't take reservations. The staff is pleasant, but like many other places, they seem short-staffed. We all enjoyed our meals. But the restaurant carries a heavy aroma of fried food, and your clothing will smell like that when you leave.

My Husband and I had dinner here after I had a terribly stressful day at work. I needed to vent but it was super quiet with a older clientele so I had to whisper vent. The waitress kept my beers flowing so that helped. The food is pretty good. It's not somewhere I would go to eat regularly. But I will occasionally eat here.

I just I just placed a takeout order tonight at Word Café and I got a grilled chicken sandwich. The chicken was pretty good. It was a little bit dry but there’s a lot of flavor to it. I got it with lettuce and tomato. They normally offer a sauce with it, but I said no sauce so that could’ve been why, but it was really good and I feel like they give you a really good portion for the price.

Probably one of the best burgers I’ve had! We came here this past Friday for an early dinner and each had the California Cheeseburger and some mozzarella sticks. Good portions, came with a bag of chips and a side of pickles. Everyone was so very nice, we will def be back again to try out another of their many burger options!

Wert's Cafe is a family owned and operated restaurant that is known for their signature burgers. They are located on N 18th St. in Allentown, and open Mon - Fri 11AM - 8PM. I haven't been here in close to a decade, so I was way overdo for a Wert's cheeseburger. The burger is stuffed with mushrooms and onions, and then topped with Velveeta cheese. It's absolutely amazing! There was so much flavor to the burger, I didn't need to add any sauce. My buddy ordered Nikki's bacon bleu cheeseburger. The broiled burger is topped with bacon, bleu cheese dressing, lettuce, and tomato. He said it was one of the best burgers he ever had. We also ordered a crock of French onion soup and split the famous fries. The fries are topped with Cajun seasoning, crab meat, and homemade cheese sauce. Good, but nothing to write home about. Service was stupendous! We were greeted with a warm welcome as soon as we walked through the door, our server was attentive, and the entire staff made us feel like family. Pickup is available, but there is no delivery.
