Reviews Summary

While many visitors enjoy the welcoming vibe and attentive staff, one recent review highlighted a negative experience with a specific bartender, suggesting service can be inconsistent.
"The Margaritas are delicious and inexpensive, the food is simple yet tasty, but the people are the best thing about the Gaslight.
We always look forward to seeing Heidi and she remembers us, even though we only make it up to Wellsboro a few times a year and it feels real nice to be remembered."

"Stopped on the recommendation of a cousin who went to a nearby college (20 years ago!). Nonplussed to see a sign by the door that said "No weapons", but it was a Friday afternoon, so...
Decent draft beer selection, and I ordered a chicken cheesesteak (suggested by a friendly couple at the bar). Bartender was entertaining, and the beer was cold and fresh. Chicken cheesesteak was diced chunks, not wafered meat, and the roll was a bit dry at the ends, but it was quite tasty. Good place, would return."
Lew Bryson
"Very nice and cozy bar in downtown Wellsboro. The Gas Light has a nice menu focused on the standard bar fare. The burgers, wings, and onion rings we had were fantastic. They had a nice selection of beers on tap and the server was extremely friendly and checked on us often on a busy Saturday afternoon."
