I know there are quite a few of these in the Columbus area, but this was my first time trying one. First off, the staff here was great! We were greeted and seated right away during what seemed to be a lunch rush mid week. Our waitress was very friendly and other staff that walked by also checked in on us to see if we needed anything. The food is exactly what I would expect from any bar/tavern - nothing in particular stuck out good or bad, but I would consider going again for their happy hour. We did not try the drinks. The music in the restaurant was great to bop too and family friendly. This overall experience seemed pretty typical of a bar/tavern.

The food here is GREAT! My husband & I go here pretty often. The boneless wings are OUTSTANDING! Sandra Townsend

Went out with friends for dinner and were seated at a round table ( there were six of us) which makes it very easy to talk with everyone! The server was attentive and the ambiance was great! I ordered from the happy hour menu (half price M-F free 3-6pm on appetizers) chicken wings with celery and ranch dressing! I believe there may have been 8-10 wings since I took some home! I also ordered their nickel salad which is amazing. Everyone else seemed very pleased with their meal as well.

We go to the Bucket very frequently. Close to home, always fresh and delicious food, and AWESOME service. Shout out to Dane P. who was our server this past Sunday. He was so nice, on top of everything and kept the refills coming. What a terrific and friendly guy. The buffalo chicken sandwich and fries were amazing. As well as the french onion soup, 3-way and my free bread pudding birthday dessert. Love the Bucket!

We came to the Rusty Bucket while visiting Columbus. I really liked everything about our experience. Amanda really took care of us. She was friendly and efficient. I like the seating area. We were in the pseudo patio area. I also grabbed a drink at the bar, that had a huge TV and a nice horseshoe bar. The food was really good. I had fish and chips and it was delicious. My wife had the "duo" which was soup and a salad. My daughter had French onion soup and fried pickles, and her friend had kids pizza. We all really enjoyed everything we got

I had a great experience at Rusty Bucket. We came in on a Saturday around 1 pm before the Ohio State game at 4. The game day atmosphere was very fun as they have a bar people can sit at and plenty of TVs to watches Because of it being game day, it was relatively crowded but we called ahead and were able to get a table for 6 immediately upon arrival. Our waitress was with us shortly after and was very attentive. We ordered Brussel sprouts and fried pickles to start. The Brussel sprouts were very crispy and had a lemon sauce that was delicious. For my entree, I ordered the salmon salad with chicken instead of salmon. The grilled chicken was well seasoned and the salad was all very fresh. Everyone else enjoyed their meals as well. We overall had a great experience and look forward to returning soon!

Can I just say WHAT AN AMAZIN SERVER JO IS?! We were at Cheer Nationals this past weekend to celebrate our Championship. Our friend had went there day before and had a great experience and we wanted to end our weekend by enjoying delicious food. And we DEFINITELY got that :) Jo was very attentive to our needs and I believe the manager Phil (?) came out to check on us too. Delicious food, margarita drink was on point! This was definitely a last minute planning but they were able to accommodate us for party of 25 on a Sunday evening! Thank you for everything and we hope everyone else who comes enjoys it!

Here with kids. It's a great place for families. Food for kids and for kids. Televisions so you can be here to watch big games. The food is good and the servers are really friendly and competent. This place has a fun feel.
