An entertainment center is moving into the former Revolutions site in Saucon Valley. Here are the details.
A vacant entertainment center in Lower Saucon Township will come back to life this summer.
B Social, an entertainment center featuring such things as arcade games, bowling, ax throwing and a restaurant, will open at the Saucon Valley Square Shopping Center on Route 378, just south of Bethlehem.
“Our goal with B Social is to create an epic destination where anyone can come together, just as our name implies, to be social,” co-owner Kayur Popat said. “We want B Social to be the ultimate destination for every kind of gathering, celebration and unforgettable experience.”
Originally a Regal Cinema, the 38,565-square-foot building was most recently occupied by Revolutions at Saucon Valley, which was owned by Frank Entertainment. It featured a 20-lane bowling alley, arcade, social games and full-service restaurant with multiple bars. It closed in 2019.
Current owner 3717 FEC LLC bought the building in 2022.
B Social will feature more than 70 screens and two LED walls — a 34-foot dining room screen and a 24-foot experience center screen. Options for fun are located throughout the venue, including live music, a dance floor, bowling, ax throwing and an arcade.
In addition, the center will have three full-service bars and an indoor/outdoor beer garden serving craft beers.
The company said its menu will reflect Lehigh Valley’s culinary heritage, serving handcrafted bites from a ceramic pizza oven. Private party options will be available for all gatherings.
“B Social is more than a culinary destination,” general manager Zoltan Estrella said. “Our open layout allows us to transform each section of our venue into the perfect space for any celebration or gathering.”
The building has undergone renovations, including air conditioning and heating systems, sound and video systems, reupholstered furniture, upgraded bowling management system, and new refrigeration and beer coolant lines.
“What sets us apart from other venues in the area is our unique blend of activities and ambiance that truly captures the spirit of the Lehigh Valley,” co-owner Mike Patel said.
Patel and Popat also own and operate El Jefe, a newly opened restaurant and event hub in Norristown.
