Would highly highly recommend this place!

“Need better Management that doesn't drink or do drugs. I wouldn't recommend going in there with family or children or ordering anything off the menu.The day shift kitchen staff isn't good as they claim.The service is very slow and the food isn't all that great neither.There management isn't very friendly and unpleasant and racist as well.“

“since Perkins is closed this is the place to go they have been busier since then it seems like! I know they're going to get a lot of their business though I have a feeling!“

“This is a fantastic spot to hang out and enjoy a fun night out. The crowd is friendly, the atmosphere is lively, and there’s always something to do—whether you’re shooting pool, playing darts, trying your luck, or just relaxing with friends. The food is surprisingly great for a place with so much going on, and the drink selection offers plenty of options to keep everyone happy. It’s the kind of place where you can easily spend a few hours without realizing it. Between the games, good eats, and welcoming vibe, it’s definitely a go-to spot for a laid-back but entertaining evening.“

“Drive past this place I don't know how many times and decided to finally try it. The food came out a little slow but it wasn't a big deal as I was busy watching the football games on all the tvs. This may be a new hangout spot for me for football season. The bartender/server was very quick with refills and making sure things were good. (I don't remember her name) I got the cheeseburger, and I also got an order of nachos with house made chips and the nachos were the best part, but it was very average. I recommend this place as the people are friendly, they got plenty of TVs for the games, decently priced food and just overall good vibes.“

“My husband and I decided to check out Whitey’s 29 for breakfast. The bloody Mary’s were fantastic. Rick enjoyed a spicy one and I had the original. He had the brisket skillet and I enjoyed the Hash-browns 29 with sausage gravy and two eggs over easy. Hash-browns were crispy, gravy had a great flavor and packed with a lot of sausage. The brisket skillet was a bit on the sweet side. We had excellent service and will be back!“

“Excellent food! Definitely recommend!“

“Hot delicious meals! Chutney dip appetizer was amazing !! While dine we heard 2 different patron remarks on they’re entree’s as , the best they ever had . Great service!!! Great atmosphere! Clean restrooms! We have never been able to finish our meals!! Always we take home leftovers!!“

“very clean, great service and cold beer! highly recommend this place!“

“My wife and I found this place a couple months back and I am yet to find something on the menu that isn’t delicious. Not only is it great food, it’s at a great price too. I’ve also stopped in for a couple of beers and enjoyed the atmosphere.“

“Seen this place on FB and decided to give a try when we were over that way. Customer service was excellent! My husband ordered wings and I got a quesadilla( the chicken in it had some spice and it had tomatoes, onions and jalapeños in it) both were very good! My husband ordered boneless wing and they made a mistake and gave him bone in wings, he gave him those free and then brought him his boneless ones too and thanked him for his patience. Those wings (he had the blackened bbq wings) are fantastic!! They have a little bit of a char on them and some sauce almost like the sauce is baked into them..it’s not dripping with sauce so u can’t taste anything but sauce..which I hate. If I could describe the perfect wings..these would be it! Great place , great service and great bar food..we will be back!! ty Hammer’s!!“

“Although I have never been to this establishment I have met the owner in Prospect Ky on Veterans Day this year. I was picking up some groceries for my family at a local Kroger and was checking out and in front of me was a young man who was finishing up his order and saw that I was a retired military veteran from the hat I was wearing. He wish me a happy Veterans Day and thanked me for my service and in kind I thanked him for the recognition. He then spoke to cashier and hung around while I thought nothing of this until I went to pay and he said I got this for you! I was floored by this act of kindness but I said to him not necessary and that I would get the bill and he said absolutely not. At that I stood down and said thank you very much… Semper fi brother and am praying that you have a great holiday and that God truly blessed you and your family ! Be well, Gunner H Retiredusmc“

“Shout out to Maria and her team tonight! Husband picked up two different kinds of wings to go and they were perfect! And he had a very Nice time visiting with Maria as always and came home smiling. Can’t wait to eat out again!!!!“

“We came in with a large bunch (kids included) on St Patrick's day. They had a stand going upstairs as well. The staff upstairs were great about letting us hide our strollers and wagons away behind them while we went down for drinks and food. The staff was great and right on the ball with everything we needed! it was fantastic!“

“We have had 2 parties here this month. Both had over 20 people. Our waitress Nikki rocked it both times. Excellent service!“

“Crusens is a must whether you live here or just visiting. It's family owned and they have a great crew who knows what it means to take care of the customer. I have been going to Crusens for 30 plus years and it's changed a lot over the years and it's grown a lot. I've had date night there, company Christmas party there, boys night out, crashed a few girls night out no matter what it's a great time“

“I want to thank the florist department for their kindness and thoughtfulness. Last weekend I was shopping with my kids and my son began to have a meltdown. The florist department brought him over a balloon and saved the day! This week when we were grocery shopping they noticed my son looking at the flowers and offered him one flower to take with him and he was thrilled! Awesome individuals with kind hearts. Thank you from one happy customer and momma ♥️“

“I didn't plan on having to use a walker to attend Paul Cauthen. From Stephanie, David, Jasmine, Kitty and all staff. I could not of attended without all of your help!!!! And the show and vibe was so worth attending!!! The outside area is so nice as well. Thank you!!!!!“

“Went to Dizzy Deans for dinner last night with friends and wanted to say how good it was! The bartender/waiter was so attentive and our food was delicious! Hope more people realize what a nice option this is in our small town for a good place to eat. The new owners are doing a great job! We will definitely go back!“

“Friendly service. Caters to every budget. Great food!“

“Karrie (Pekin) is a great waitress. We were there today 9/11/24, she had two big tables and our group came in with 12, plus other smaller tables. She wasn’t even phased - she works the patio - waits tables, makes the drinks, salads and soups and hustles her butt. She is always very nice and never complains about separate checks. Thanks Karrie we appreciate you!“
