U. SAUCON TWP., Pa. – New owners are breathing new life into a scenic, early 19th century tavern, set to reopen soon in Lehigh County.
Ye Olde Spring Valley Tavern, a full-service restaurant and bar known for utilizing fresh ingredients such as trout from its spring-fed pond, was sold to new owners last summer and will reopen as Spring Valley Tavern this spring at 1355 Station Ave. in Upper Saucon Township, according to Richard Islam, who’s operating the tavern with his family.
The tavern closed in early August under previous owners Donna and Warren Walters, and Islam and his family have been implementing interior and exterior renovations over the past several months in preparation for its reopening.
