It is amazing, i love the rustic atmosphere, the food is amazing, and i love the buckets they serve the appetizers in, drinks are cold and their burgers and wings are amazing :) the onion rings and pickle nickles are good too so id say thst this place is a definite go to, and the workers are super sweet and very welcoming :)

We have eaten here quite a few times and each time has been great. Greeted as soon as we walked in and seated. The chicken and jojos are our favorite to order. Love trying the different beers on Tap as well.Parking: Lots of truck/ trailer, RVs parking available and up close parking w/ handicap spots as well.Kid-friendliness: They have a dining room and also a separate Taphouse. Highchairs and booster sears available as well.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps or curbs. Wheelchair accessible doors and bathroom.

My family has visited the Rusty Bucket on different occasions since they opened. Each time we have been very satisfied with our experience and it seems to get better with each visit. The food is always fresh and flavorful with portions on the larger side. Today our family visited and tried their prime rib Philly steak sandwich special. It was delicious! The aujus that came with it was homemade and better than any we have had before (this coming from a food critic). The fresh cut fries were hot and crispy and are always good. The service we received was great! The food came out in a very reasonable amount of time for how busy they were. Kylee was very kind and attentive. We are happy Sweet Home has such a nice establishment with great food and a fun atmosphere for the locals and visitors to enjoy. Looking forward to the next time we visit.

As a local, very dissatisfied. Atmosphere is bla. Nothing appealing or attracting in the inside. The seats are uncomfortable. Super low for the tables they got. The tables for some reason are long, tall, and narrow not much room if you’re with a family. 3 kids and my wife and stuff was easily pushed off the table. Very small selection on drinks. Ordered wings and had hardly any sauce and over cooked. Kids ordered chicken tender but not hard to mess that up. I had the bacon burger and the only juice falling off the burger was bacon grease. Burger patty was way over cooked. If there is a larger party on the opposing side consider your service dropped. Sad to see nothing special really comes to this town.

Me and my wife waited over 40 minutes for 2 burgers. At 40 minutes, we left. 2 groups were served and received food after we ordered, and 5 drive thru ordered and served after we ordered. I have had better service at McDonald's in Sweet Home. For being our first trip to your establishment, it was very disappointing. I have run restaurants that have 200 tables a night and know that there are issues, but 40 minutes for 2 burgers is very ridiculous.

I have eaten there dozens of times with family and friends. All the times except one minor issue have been amazing. The broaster chicken is amazing! I haven't had anything yet that wasn't good.

not my fancy. food was decent but the service was awful. never knew it would take me forever just to be noticed in a restaurant.the atmosphere was just bland i was excited to check this place out because my buddys were mentioning it. didn't meet the expectations. foods decently priced but i really hope for better quality. fries were to soggy the blue burger and western were way to over sauced and over cooked felt like i bit a belt. drinks felt a little watered down. again this isn't my fancy but definitely not coming back.

My 19yr old was visiting from Washington and we stopped in to eat. Service was great. Servers were fantastic friendly, attentive, quick, and the food was awesome. On top of all that this entire place is completely family friendly. I'm a local and seen some of the comments they received about their pricing. I have to say they are no higher in price than other places. We ordered from a local pizza place in town and received less bang for our buck. 10/10 for these guys. Can't wait to come in for line dancing on Saturday's.Thank you for bringing such a great place to our little town.
Ordered well done. We got medium rare instead , young cooks reply was ; it stepped out at 155.I will never take my family here again.Mine was so undercooked I couldn't finish it . Middle waisted like cold raw beef!

Low key night, only ones eating in. Very friendly, great burgers and had the pretzels with beer cheese. Beer cheese is definitely a winner. Burgers were cooked perfect and juicy.

This place is awesome..just about everything on the menu is outstanding. We had spinach and artichoke dip and a bloomin onion for starters - both were great. At our table we had chicken and mojos, Boy Blue Burger and a Pati Melt. All were excellent! Portion sizes are huge. Great selection of brews. Service was exceptional. The owner came in and checked on us. If you're in Sweet Home or passing through it's a no-brainer. If you're in Albany or Lebanon, make the drive over!!!

First time trying The Rusty Bucket, we ordered our food for pickup. I ordered the Boy Blue burger with onion rings on the side. The burger was huge, it was loaded with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, bacon, and blue cheese. It was really good, and the onion rings are amazingly good !!!!! I took away a star because I think it was a little pricey, for my burger and onion rings, and a 4 piece chicken with JoJo's was $31 and some change.
