“Outstanding! Took me 20yrs to find another waffle worthy of the praise - Nellie's delivered! Absolutely the best waffle you'll find - crisp outside, soft on the inside. The breakfast burritos are top notch as well. Staff is exceptional- you can't go wrong here! HIGHLY recommend a visit!“

“Imagine you're in Newburgh, Indiana, your stomach's rumbling louder than a thunderclap, and you're in desperate need of a good breakfast spot. Enter The Rooster's Den, a place that swiftly sets you up with a seat and a sense of belonging from the moment you walk in. This isn't just hearsay; it happened to me, and it kicked off my experience on a right note.Here, I was greeted by Madison, my server for the morning. Imagine someone who's got the knack for being around exactly when you need a coffee top-up, without the hovering. Madison nailed it, striking that perfect balance between attentiveness and giving you space to breathe – or in my case, space to peruse the menu.Decision time led me to The Rancher, a hefty breakfast platter that's not messing around. This is where you get to pick two meats, and feeling indulgent, I went for both the bacon and sausage patty. The bacon was a highlight, managing to be both crispy and a tad chewy. Add in three well-cooked eggs (over easy for me), a hashbrown casserole that made me a believer upon first bite, and you've got a meal that means business. Opting for wheat toast might seem like the understated choice, but sometimes, simplicity is key.Now, not everything was pitch-perfect. My toast took its sweet time arriving, making a bit of a solo entrance after I'd made considerable headway with the rest of The Rancher. But considering how everything else hit the high notes, this felt like a minor blip rather than a deal-breaker.So, what's the takeaway from my morning at The Rooster's Den? It's a solid choice for breakfast in Newburgh. The place doesn’t just serve good food; it serves it with a side of genuine care, thanks partly to staff like Madison. And even though there was a slight wait for the toast, the quality of everything else on the plate made up for this small oversight.All in all, The Rooster's Den delivers a satisfying start to the day, with a little adventure in the mix, especially if you're diving into that hashbrown casserole for the first time. It's the kind of meal that sets you up nicely for whatever else your day throws at you. Definitely a spot worth checking out if your morning finds you in this corner of Indiana.“

“This place is really nice! We were able to have the downstairs for an event. It was a nice environment, good drinks, and the workers were great. I would definitely recommend it, and I can't wait to go back in the summer to sit outside on the patio area.“

“My wife and I had our rehearsal dinner in their event space in March 2024. They also delivered lunch to our wedding venue for the wedding party.The food is delicious, the staff is courteous and efficient, and overall the experience was great. The catering manager Kim was a breeze to work with, and made our wedding planning process that much easier.Having also eaten at the restaurant, I have yet to find something they make that isn't delicious. The bourbon glazed salmon was the clear guest favorite from our rehearsal dinner limited menu.“

“Great place to go and have a bite to eat before hitting the cinema or the arcade. The restaurant area has many choices. The fish and chips, burgers and pizza are all really good. The food comes out fast, and the the service is great. The arcade has many options to choose from for all age groups, all the way to virtual reality games. Don't forget about the bowling alley.“
