A highly visible location in Allentown has lost a restaurant.

Sweet Spot Bar & Grill will close by June 30, according to the restaurant’s Facebook page. The golf-centric restaurant is at 2805 Lehigh St., right at the exit for Interstate 78.

The full-service restaurant and bar, which opened in 2019, has five Topgolf Swing Suite simulator bays and offers golf as well as other virtual activities such as hockey, soccer, baseball pitching and carnival games. The menu features a host of burgers, sandwiches and sides.

The restaurant attributes the closing to COVID and the effect the pandemic had on business.

“Unfortunately, the COVID closures hit us very hard and we never truly recovered. We have struggled with raising awareness about our business and the amazing fun and food we offer and just simply have run out of resources to continue,” the post reads. “We hope that you can find time to come in one last time to enjoy the experience before we are gone forever.”
