Good stop

The service was fantastic. Ice water delivered for our dog. There’s construction going on at the river so the whole time we were there, we were listening to a very loud, squeaky (more like screeching) backhoe moving gravel. We ordered the chicken wings, pretzels, a burger with grilled chicken substituted, another grilled chicken for our dog, and a the sweet plum burger. Pretzel was good, sauces were not. Chicken wings were good. The plum burger was really good. The grilled chickens were dry. Our dog didn’t mind, but daughter wouldn’t eat hers. I would say on another day, all would have been fantastic.

Great food!

The Garage was our first choice of places to try while in the area. They have a nice patio with plenty of seating. We ordered chicken wings and grilled chicken tacos with onion rings, and a boneless wing kids meal with sweet potato fries. The chicken wings were great! Ordered them plain with the sauce on the side. Sauce was a bit spicy, so they were delicious plain. The chicken tacos were good, but a sauce would have been excellent. The onion rings, very crispy but a bit blah. The kids meal with boneless wings - Roxy approved! They are house breaded and was able to peel off most of the crust for her. The sweet potato fries were actually waffle fries and they were very good. Service was good from one server and excellent from another. All in all, a great choice.

Great dinner stop!

We called ahead to make sure there was seating in the patio. They said there would be a wait and put us on the list. We arrived and didn’t wait long until there was room. Roxy received a fabulous greeting from both staff and patrons. The food was really good. The service was as good as can be expected with the volume of customers and staff that seemed a little short. They brought a bowl of water very quickly and they have a grilled chicken breast, unseasoned, for $3 for the canine guests. Roxy thoroughly enjoyed her visit!

Great treats for pups and their humans

We had a hot day and hubby wanted ice cream. Went to Graeters. They said the pup cups were free on Thursdays for the next couple of months which was unexpected and awesome! Roxy LOVED her pup cup. There was a community bowl of water on the outdoor wasting area. Not big on that, but no big deal as we bring her water with us everywhere. All in all, a great treat for all of us!

Pretty good stop with the pup

This is more of a bar than a restaurant, but the food was good. The service was ok, several different servers during the time we were there. They brought out a bucket of water for the pup, they were out of bacon. My grilled chicken was very good. Hubby’s wings were good and on the spicy side without sauce. The. Beer was cold but hubby didn’t like the Dr Pepper or the sweet tea. Otherwise RC products. All in all, it was fine.

Store is closed and does not have a patio

Went to make a quick stop here on the road. First noticed there was no patio. Oh well, have to eat in the car… but there was only one vehicle in the lot. Circled the store. All their kitchen stuff was in the customer lobby. Not sure if it is a remodel or if it is permanently closed. Nothing on the sign to say.

Roxy loved her first visit to Rafferty’s

They delivered a bowl of ice water when they delivered our water. The staff all loved her. I ordered her a kids burger meal, no bun, with a sweet potato. She loved it all!
