Waffles were served with frozen strawberries, melted ice was soaking them. I am not sure why anyone would like this place. Food is bad. Service was slow, waited to the worst breakfast for an hour

Service remains a bit slow, but they're friendly and once they take your order the food comes out pretty quick.

The food was good. Much improved from the last time. My husband loved the fish and chips. I had the 2x4 breakfast for dinner. It was cooked perfectly and their sausage is really good. Our waitress has a great laugh and a good attitude.

A friend and myself stopped at the Rusty Tractor for lunch. A man and his two kids walked in at the same time we did. A waitress stood about 25ft away at the entrance to the dining room and yelled, "How many?" The man didn't answer cuz his kids were distracting him. So I put up 3 fingers to her across the room and said "three" for the guy since he'd got there just before the two of us. The waitress looked irritated and very rudely said, "fine" like she didn't understand (cuz she wouldn't just walk over and talk to us.) So she walked to the till and rang some stuff up. The she said again across the room, "how many!" I said again louder, "three! An adult and 2 children" Then the waitress said, "are you all 5 together!?" I said, "no 3 of them and 2 of us"
Ultimately we were sat down but the waitress hates her job.
I had a bad feeling about the whole sketchy place so I just ordered a sandwich. A BLT.
When I started eating it, it was disgusting because they'd burnt the toast and just served it anyway. I choked down the first half of the sandwich but couldn't eat anymore despite being pretty hungry. I told the waitress that it was gross and I choked down half of it but couldn't eat the rest. I had the second half apart and the burnt was clearly visible as was the tiny single half tomato. The waitress said she would "discount" the bill. Instead of just not charging me for that disgusting food, she charged me half price. I would never go there again.

We were just there this weekend and I'm not exactly sure what kind of rubber they replaced their chicken with for the chicken bacon almond salad, but my husband will eat just about anything and even he said it didn't even resemble chicken. It was just grilled rubber. Highly disappointed. Also either the silverware is 80 years old and needs replaced, or you need to adjust the rinse aid setting on your dishwasher.

My bisket for the gravy was over baked an hard an the gravy tasted like flour paste. Not to mention very slow service after being seated an had to be corrected 4 times on a mug purchased made during food ordering. I even received a basket of rippies I didn't order. Otherwise was ok

Very disappointed in my food. I ordered the special of hash and eggs. That was not a normal hash. It seemed tater tot’s and whatever thrown togethrer. I could. Not believe the bill for 3 people, $71.00. Glass of milk over $4.00. You used to be my favorite place to eat, not anymore.

The food was okay but a bit pricey. Could be due to our egg shortage. Also, there is a 3% charge for using a card to pay.

Ordered for pick up, person who took my order was pretty ride on the phone. Food was delicious, lots of flavor, large serving. Just wasn't impressed by the server when ordering... she needs a different job.

Hubby was very impressed with his liver and onions. The mozzarella sticks we ordered were completely empty of cheese but the batter tasted good ? I had the seafood platter. The cod was very good but the rest of the platter was mediocre. The server was nice but disappeared frequently for 30 minutes at a time. If hubby wants liver and onions again we'll go back. Otherwise it's not worth my drive.

There chowder tastes like doughy mashed potato with clams. They used wayyyy to much roux. Same with the Broccoli cheddar but it was doughy and greasy from an exurbanite amount of butter. I picked up the whole cup with my spoon. The ribeye was cooked in burnt hamburger grease and there was chunks of burnt hamburger stuck to it. It was pungent and acrid tasting from the burnt flavor. The cook clearly doesnt care at all. The bars atmosphere is cold/uninviting and has modern "country themed" tchotchkes but the modernness doesn't match the theme of the rest of the restaurant. The food used to be good here but I dont know what happened lately
