A great stop for beer lovers. Friendly small pub in downtown Delaware. Beautiful wood bar and super…read morehelpful staff. No food offerings but staff was quick to suggest local options easily within walking distance. The beers were very good. I enjoyed their ESB then a Hefeweizen. Both well made and tried to style. Kind of a bummer to miss their cask offering for the week as it tapped out the night before. The city was so nice that we'll be back and I'll try the cask at that point.

Have to say this has become one of our favorites for casual dining with amazing food. Drove to…read moredowntown Delaware and found easy parking on the street (there are also nearby lots). Backstretch is super casual (given Ohio Wesleyan is nearby - its almost a college/town bar) but great to come in a sit at the bar or one of their booths. It isnt big, maybe 15-20 bar stools and 12 booths and 1-2 tables. This time we picked a booth and a great server (Jacobi) helped us right away. Fun part of backstretch is the staff. Servers are friendly, you can watch the cooks prepare your food, and they have a full bar. Note they dont have many draft beer options, but servers tried hard to get us something we liked. Food here is fresh off the grill and tastes like home cooked food - from their Reuben(which was amazing) to Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (has kick but so good) - you cant go wrong. This time we added Tots, Mac and Cheese, and the Deviled eggs (most sandwiches are served with a deviled egg - tasty). We also tried Jacobi recommendation of Hencock Tots - wing sauce - cheese and bacon. Should have just made that my meal. Amazing. They dont take reservations but unless there is an event in downtown, you can usually walk in for dinner. This was our third visit in 60 days! Ready to go back - thanks Jacobi for a fun night and see you all soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our first visit here. They continue the tradition of great cocktails, and…read moreAna's Margarita is the closest to the old 12 West margarita that I've had in years. That alone would have been worth a visit! We tried a variety of dishes - the wings, mushroom toast, cabbage casar, andouille dog, extra cheesy burger, and the soup of the day (chili). Wings were cooked well as always, though I prefer the Speck lemon/chili seasoning to traditional buffalo. The mushroom toast was impeccable, and the chili was one of the best I've ever had. The burger served on queso was a fun twist. Special mention to the fries - so often an afterthought, the fries here a perfect, with a nice pickle powder seasoning. The only dish that didn't work for us was the charred cabbage Caesar - while the dressing and other toppings were delicious, the cabbage was just too tough. We'll stick with the FANTASTIC wedge salad next time - so glad they kept that from Cove, only reason we didn't get it was to try something new. Overall, we found Rosebud's a fun experience, great to see the same staff, great drinks, and we're excited to see how often the menu switches up. Can't wait to return!

The best part of the meal was the appetizer - sautéd mushroom toast - really tasty! I don't recommend the Steak au poivre (a filet with sauce = supposed to be a classic French dish of pan-seared steak, traditionally filet mignon, crusted with coarsely cracked peppercorns and served with a rich, creamy pan sauce made from the pan drippings, cognac, and heavy cream.) - cut of meat was definitely not tender enough as filet should be, sauce was okay but not "au poive" & oddly it was served with traditional french fries which I found a mismatch - I would not order that again. Wife ordered the evening special Flounder - it was pretty good. We'll go back sometime & try some other things. Most people around us were ordering sandwiches, and they looked pretty amazing.

The bread itself also had an alcohol taste to it- maybe it's the batch as the last time I had it I couldn't taste it but this time I may not pass a breathilizer from it alone I had the RBW Burger and the aioli was tasty. The pickles were unlike any I've had before- like the thing between a pickle and a cucumber. The wait staff were nice! The volume was pretty standard for a bar. Only gave it a four because the food can be inconsistent between visits. (Last time the fries were way too salty and this time they were perfect- also the bread)

So good, decadent really. I had the RBW Sloppy Joe- Chorizo, BBQ sauce, cheese and onion petals on a pretzel bun! This sandwich is to die for!! I will be making this at home if I can figure out the right mix. My wife had the Mexican salad with chicken and she said that it was awesome. I also tried two of their beers and a cider. First I had the Delicious which is a light wheat beer, very refreshing. Second was the Webrewedabeertogether which was a Bock, great tasting dark beer and then I tried the Eat a peach cider, also light and refreshing.

The table was absolutely disgusting- see pic! We asked for sanitizer and he said he would bring it back and never bought it back. We have an immunocompromised child and cannot risk her eating off a dirty table. I had to go to bathroom to get a paper towel and soap and wash my own table off. Why??? The town of Delaware is bustling but no one is in here! Obviously there is a reason! I saw a few employees in the banquet area eating pizza. Where is everyone?? Oh they are in the back! An employee in the hallway seemed dumbfounded when I asked her for sanitizer. She finally bought it to my table. The place is dead. The place is unkept. Bathroom stalls with no trash can liners. The list could go on and on. Health department needs to pay a visit and have a come to Jesus talk with this joke of an establishment.

She was fine, food and drinks were served timely but there was nothing extraordinary about her standard service that would warrant a higher percentage tip. After paying, as my family and I were walking out, she calls out my father in front of other guests to ask if there was something wrong with her service. He explained he doesn't tip on tax and the alcoholic drinks but otherwise he gave an 18% tip...my brother and I went back and handed her another $10 in cash saying maybe we may have calculated it wrong (didn't) but wanted to be nice and handed her the cash...she proceeded to complain further and didn't offer any thanks. Sorry but if you're a waitress with that crappy of an attitude, you're probably in the wrong job. Very unprofessional and entitled.
