Ye Rustic Inn

Loved this spot! A fun, lowkey dive to hang out with friends. Very casual vibes and fantastic beer selection! Staff was very attentive!

I’ve been coming to this bar for almost 25 years mainly for the wings and Hefeweizen, sadly, the last three times I’ve visited my beer was not available and the service was terrible, also, good luck trying to call ahead to check for availability of anything because they won’t answer the phone. I found myself having to go look for the bartender so I can pay and leave(not the first time). I’m very surprised that they never upgraded the bar let alone dusted and cleaned all the cobwebs you can find in the corner and the ceilings and chandeliers that have been there for years. For the prices they charge you you’d figure the whole bar would get a makeover, but no, it’s still dated and getting worse by the year. I think it’s time to move on to another bar. The hipster scene is not for me anyway.

I give this place 5 star for the service. I had 1 modelo beer. Can't comment on the food. However, our waitress was on top of things. There was a party of 20 celebrating a birthday and this young lady kept the drinks coming. Some people ordered food which looked delicious, but I did not have food. I'm sure it was really good tho'. The atmosphere was Rustic..lol yes pun intended. It is a hangout bar where you can watch the game and have a brewski with some buds. I would def go there again. You should check it out as well.

Terrible customer service. Great wings. But terrible service.
I've been a customer here for almost 15 years.

I ordered an 18 piece and a 12 piece of buffalo wings for carry out. I got two 12 pieces--not a huge deal, I wasn't mad. Should be easy to correct. I went back to the restaurant later and asked for either A) a refund of the difference or B) a voucher/gift card for 6 wings.

The shift manager and staff were either unwilling or unable to fulfill this reasonable request. A small mistake on their part that should have been simple to correct. I was told I had to email the owner to review this...seemed a bit ridiculous, but I emailed the address the manager provided. I emailed three times over two weeks and never got a response.

It feels silly to escalate 6 chicken wings to a series of emails and now a negative review, but if you are not going to empower your staff to correct small mistakes, and the only option for your customers is to send emails that will not get a response...I guess this is where it leaves us.

I had to try their Buffalo wings. It didn’t disappoint. The best thing on the menu. However I don’t recommend their steak : the server forgot my order to put a mushroom on my steak and also the meat was dry. I’d keep coming back for more Buffalo wing though. I like it extra crispy and next time, I’ll ask extra sauce. I also like their drink special that comes with extra shot of vodka/ tequila/ Rum when you order a beer. You’ll get extra tipsy.

Fantastic wings. Order them regular, not crispy because the more crispy you go the drier the meat gets. Skinny fries are also the best fries on their menu
