    Breaded fish fry delish!
    Tony L.

    Had a great time at Dicky's. One of the few remaining local bars with great bar food. We went on a Friday night and had broiled fish, the battered fish fry and the breaded fish flat fry and they were all delicious house made onion rings were great also. The beer selection it has some thing for everybody and the service was outstanding a lot of smiling faces. It's great to see, happy people enjoying themselves.

    Seemed like there was only street parking. There was a very small lot next to the building, which I assume was for employees. The place is small with a long bar and a few tables. The bartender acted as a server, and she was very nice and quick. Their selection of liquor wasn't that large but contained the basics. I had the buffalo tofu bites and tofu caprese. Both were pretty good! The tofu bites were fried to the perfect consistency for me. And I normally don't care for rye bread, but it went well with the other ingredients in the tofu caprese. The fries that came with the sandwich were tasty as well. Overall, fine experience. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely keep this place in mind.

    Craving tacos today- and while we were at highland park we couldn't pass the opportunity to grab some tacos here! We only waited 20 minutes & they had complete curbside. Still hot after a 20 minute car ride home.

    I've driven past this place and I finally had a chance to check it out. From what I understand this building is still owned by the same family and it's been some version of a bar since the 1880 or so. It's the oldest longest running bar in Rochester. The inside is light and bright, a nice longbar,darts, music and the back room is the dining rooms I was here with my friend for a pop up fried chicken event. They have beers on tap, liquor, cider, water, soft drinks and the like. Brian was manning the bar and was so great and told us a quick version of the bar. I understand it reopened last year or something. I'm sure your saying to yourself it's probably a dive but in the best way. Everyone comes here and I mean EVERYONE! I could actually see the late Anthony Bourdain sitting in the bar no joke. They serve food but we were here for the Hot Fried Chicken..it was fabulous. Beers are about $5 for a draft or so I got a Blue Moon which I've not had in forever. They have some outdoor seating with umbrellas and indoor seating. Parking is pretty much street as it's in a real residential area on Meigs in the Southwedge/Swillburg area. Give this place a shot it's worth a visit we will be back. No attitude and a relaxing vibe. Cheers!

    See all

    Crowded and noisy, but food is good and very reasonably priced. Waitstaff are hardworking and friendly considering how busy they are!

    The service on Friday is very slow, we waited over an hour, and then had to leave quickly. The french fries were soggy and the fish so so.

    A real hole in the wall but the fish fry on Fridays is the best!

    Convenient to my parent's home when I visit Rochester but not a place I would return…read more Pros: + Great for groups. Ample space both upstairs and downstairs. + 2 of the 4 sours I had were decent. + Great for kiddos as they have an outdoor space that's family and dog friendly. It was very busy the day we went with a fun atmosphere outside. + Historic venue with a nice restoration for the brewery. The less great: + The setup means long waits. Having to wait in line for beers in a completely packed brewery with two bartenders is not a way to run a business. They need to consider a new strategy for ensuring they can accommodate the volume they are currently doing. + Had a bite of someone's burger and found it more or less inedible. + My parents had attempted to organize a large family gathering on the day we were there and while I wasn't involved in the planning, there seemed to be missteps and miscommunications along the way that weren't met with much empathy or customer service in mind. Too many great breweries in Rochester to waste time on spots that aren't going to ensure guest satisfaction. Great location though! This place is so, so busy it's obvious the east side isn't brewery saturated (somehow) quite yet.

    What a gem! If this is not the best brew pub in Rochester, I need to know, because Rising Storm…read moreBrewing is one of the best breweries I've been to in 26 states. First off, the food. Wow. The Detroit style pizza is phenomenal! Perfect crispy crust. I was there on a Friday but came back the next day to try the tomato pie as it was sold out on Friday. It was delicious! Think focaccia with tomato sauce and Parmesan cheese. So tasty! But what is brilliant is that of four pizzas, one rotates each week and changes. I had one of the rotating pizzas: pepperoni, banana peppers, garlic sauce, and honey. It bears repeating, wow! So great! The beers? There's something for everyone! So many hazy/New England IPAs and sours. Great seltzers too! The space is great with room for private parties. Such friendly staff. I hope to come back again before leaving!
