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!

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!

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!

So first off the old mill is a really cool location. Still has some of the old millworks inside…read more Lots of cool spaces as opposed to one big open room. There was a youth softball team celebrating the end of the season upstairs so it was a bit loud, but fun. It's right on the creek and there's plenty of outside seating and picnic tables so if the weathers nice you can get your food and beverages and head outside. The bar tenders were all good, let us try a couple samples to make sure we were gonna like what we ordered. There's a separate spot to order food and the young girls working the food spot were unenthusiastic... We ordered the chorizo poutine, Roni Stark Pizza and Tampa Bay Bustdown burger. The pizza was good, honey drizzle was a nice touch, but the poutine and burger were the clear winners. Chorizo gravy had a good kick, and there were big chunks of cheese curd, nice. The burger had 2 smashed patties, nice crispy edges and a ton of flavor. The Gouda cheese and bacon they are using are both high quality. A lot of variety of beers on tap, not all IPAs which was nice for someone that isn't an IPA guy. Tried 2 lager, an ale and a pilsner they had on tap and I'd drink any of them again.
