I planned a Vietnam Veterans Fundraiser at Bootleggers - not happy with outcome. During the planning process, things were promised but not delivered. I had to pay for half the band. I told the “assistant” I was seeking a band to play for free. The “assistant” didn’t seem to grasp the concept of a fundraiser since she found a band who wanted $3k for 3 hours! The second band she presented was $1,500. The band, nor its followers, seemed to know they were booked for a fundraiser. Their followers didn’t want to pay the entry fee. Bootlegger’s marketing materials didn’t list an entry fee/donation at the door and most were hesitant to pay - even though it was for Veterans - held Memorial Weekend no less!!! The Band didn’t promote raffles nor 50/50 and had to be asked twice. A Ceremony was conducted prior to playing so they knew the theme for the day but didn’t seem receptive to helping raise money either, even after I told the sound engineer, I was paying half their fee! The “assistant manager” was unwelcoming and only checked in when wanting money from me. She was uncommunicative the entire time nor was she helpful. Three “bar regulars” were obnoxious, and one seemed to speak on behalf of the “partners.” The “regular” demanded his money back if Bootleggers didn’t put out the pizza promised then said we’d never “have another fundraiser there again”! He also made threatening remarks. The atmosphere was hostile and unwelcoming! We had to go to the bar for beverages since none of the waitresses asked for our orders. No one came around while we were packing up, which took a while. Customer service was poor! I made a phone call and sent email requesting a meeting with the “partners” but received no response to date - it’s been 1.5 months. I’m sure they knew of the problems encountered in their establishment but don’t seem to care. In the end, Bootleggers made money at the bar and off the menu and only had to pay half the band. We worked hard at the fundraiser and made a very low total of $540 for Vets - lower than any other fundraiser I’ve ever held! I was also in communication with Ryan’s Wake who approved my fundraiser, but only had availability the following month. I regret confirming with Bootleggers. I highly recommend Ryan’s Wake for fundraisers, if they have availability. I’ve been to several there and always had a good time. The manager and assistant are communicative and very professional. Their staff is awesome and welcoming! Lesson learned, but it’s the Veterans initiative that suffered!

Food tasted a bit too salty. Great service. Quiet street w/ in or outside seating. Urban setting.

Indifferent service (felt invisible) and under cooked burger (asked for medium, served rare). But hey, at least the fries were good.
Asked to sit outside, told there was a long wait (Saturday Farmers Market). I sat and watched the many empty tables outside stay empty the entire time.
No cutlery, no water, no napkins, no eye contact in an almost empty dining room. Would have put it down to a bad day, but the waiter was super friendly and engaging to the table of 5 people next to me. Waiter came by, asked how everything was without stopping and walked off before I could answer.

Great place to eat if you like finding plastic wrap in your fajita wrap. Well. Technically if you like finding it wadded up in your mouth after a bite of the fajita wrap

Beer selection is good. Great stop on a Farmers Market day to sit and relax.

Wife and I sat outside - was a Saturday during the farmers market - I live in Troy and first time trying Bootleggers. Was NOT disappointed at all. Will go back no question - I even tried something I have never tried before (peanut butter & Bacon burger) now... I try not to eat a lot of beef or pork so I substituted the veggie burger but still had the ? and what a crazy delicious burger. Even with the veggie burger it was stellar good!! The fries, drinks, and my wife's meal was outstanding as well. She got the Turkey-Avovado wrap. It's worth the try if you've never been or if you have try something different! Will absolutely go back!
