    Chucky the bartender.

    Not sure why there are 2 "filtered" reviews for this place. As everyone else says, it's a dive bar, but make no mistake, this is the BEST dive bar in Rochester. The male bartenders have been there for awhile, and treat you great! The owner is frequently there, and is a great guy also. Drinks are cheap, and STRONG (nothing watered down here). The food is great, and very reasonably priced ($8.95 for a strip steak with 2 sides). Also, as others have said, usually a bikini bartender on duty, and looking gorgeous! If you've never been, give it a try. I promise you won't be disappointed.

    I have been going to this bar for 2 years now. Hidden in a shopping center across from Rochester International Airport, this bar is a favorite of the locals. The owner is there everyday drinking with the patrons, usually giving out free drinks by the end of the night. The owner's brother,Chucky, is a bartender on Wednesday and Friday nights. This guy drinks right along with the people he is serving and by the end of the night you are both singing some song from the 80's while playing the air guitar. Definitely a bar for any classic rock/80's fan. It's almost like stepping back in time. There are multiple beers on tap including Yuengling, Labatt Blue, Molson, Coors, and Bud. Prices are some of the cheapest in Rochester, with Pitchers costing $7.50, shots are $4, and bottles of beer are 3.50. Along with Bartenders like Chucky, there are "Bikini Bartenders" working every night of the week. Food is surprisingly good. They make their own Buffalo wing sauce and it goes great with their fries, in a concoction called "Buffalo Fries". Trust me, they are the ultimate drunk food. The burgers are some of the best I have ever had. In short, this place is like nothing else in Rochester. You should try it at least once.

    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!
