This is a great and friendly neighborhood bar, a great place to stop by!

Saw a customer get bitched out and told to leave for something they did not do.

Strong inexpensive drinks. Mellow crowd. Not pretentious at all. Bands and pool shooters have skills.

Cory Smith

It's unfortunate that at the end ofvthe night. They condone thier regulars to pic fights and to allow them to push out of towners around. I've been there several times over the last 2 weeks and it's happening every time and I walk away not being able to tip staff properly. Your choice not mine.

Free Heel

Local dive. You'll find an older crowd here Best prices in town. Not a place for food really except for holidays when there's a free spread. Pool table, outdoor seating and colorful characters make this a true Adirondack experience.

The Rusty Nail is not your average dive bar. It has the local flair and the locals to go with, but there's so much more. Always decorated for the next upcoming holiday. You can count on the same staff being there with an occasional new person, they open early in the day for those day drinkers, (you know who you are), a back yard for smokers and non smokers alike, with comfortable seating in and out of the sun, a fire pit for cooler weather, and the best pool table around. Stop by by yourself or with some friends I promise you'll leave with more friends than you had when you showed up!

Me and my father came here to see if they were still serving food and the bartender gave us an INSANE attitude and was generally rude when he asked when they stopped serving, she went "I'm not serving food." And "We can stop whenever we want to."
