    Pork-Stuffed Potstickers w/ sweet chili sauce
    Mike F.

    The RR House has been a Sinking Spring staple for god knows how long. Well, maybe not that long. But I've been a patron since about 2010 and spent most of my 20s there whoring it up. Now, as I enter my twilight years, I find myself enjoying a more restrained, if not chaste way of life. Gone are the nights of licentious debauchery, and in their place wholesome afternoons filled with peaceful autumn walks on trails covered in auburn leaves. Also stuffing my fat whore mouth with local delicacies, like Jimmy G's Signature Steak Sandwich, made with 8 oz. ribeye, minced garlic, sautéed onions, and two types of cheese. There are times, however, when I hesitate mid-bite and think back to the numerous food safety inspection violations reported earlier in the year. The findings painted a picture of fifth and negligence. But hey, what's a little grime on your burger? Maybe it just adds a little extra "seasoning." My complaints about the food don't stem from lack of flavor, but rather the sloppy haste in which items are thrown together. The Italian I ordered didn't resemble an Italian. It was more along the lines of those pre-made sandwiches you find at gas stations with long overdue best-by dates. The burger I ordered didn't have the basic customizations I had requested (adding lettuce and tomato was too much to ask for?). In the end, the biggest surprise was the French dip. By the looks of it, it shouldn't have been as good as it was. There was hardly any meat, and it was squished and compacted like at first glance looked dryer than the Gobi. Luckily the au jus brought everything to life. The salty broth infused a spark of flavor to each bite and helped me forget about the cheese from Jimmy G's Steak congealing in my veins. If the kitchen can get up to code, it'd give diners a lot more confidence when ordering. Hopefully those old violations have been addressed and new ones haven't been committed.

    Maryland crab Maryland Tots

    At one time this place was a regular for us. After a recent visit, it seems as though things have changed. Our service was super slow and our tater tots with crab, barely had any crab on them. They used to pile it on. Very disappointed in this change.

    a bar with several televisions
    David M.

    What a gem of Berks County! A great local hangout with fantastic bartenders and bar staff. The menu is not like normal "bar food". The wings are large and perfectly cooked. Burgers and apps are prepared to order which is a big change to other establishments in the area. Bartenders Adam, Theresa, Annie and others make this a place make it feel like "Cheers"! Don't miss out on the opportunity to have a great meal, cold beer or cocktail, and fantastic food and service !

    RRH Italian Sandwich
    Amber S.

    Looking for a quick lunch, this was a good selection! We decided to sit inside which there was no waitress in site for at least 10 minutes since they were all outside. However, once we were "found", the waitress was great and on top of everything. We just got the RRH italian and a burger, but for basic sandwiches they were made real well and tasted pretty good. Glad we chose this place for lunch :)

    Look at all our happy customers during game 4 of the sixers.  #sportsbar
    Grover T.

    "The customer is NOT always right!", "Go to PJ's" Direct quotes from the owner and his equally unpleasant mouthpiece of a manager. This was in response to me asking if the Sixers playoff game (game four) could be put on the tv directly in front of me. Yes, you read that right... it was a simple request to have the channel changed on a TV that nobody else was watching, and i was borderline accosted for the notion. Allow me to set the stage, there were 11 people in the bar. 11. Not 12, not 13, 11. They were all there to watch the Sixers, but only 3 of the 10 TVs had the game on.... my front and center tv? ....Motor Cross commercials. I asked the bartender, Missy, who was pleasant and receptive, if she would mind putting the Sixers on the tv I was watching - as long as nobody else was there to watch motor-cross commercials. She came back to tell me that the manager doesn't allow two consecutive TVs to view the same program. Huh? Wah? Thought for sure It was just a joke... Game 4... Sixers/Miami... Broadcast through the speakers of the bar, but only televised on 3 of the 10 TVs. No, they're serious, my front and center TV is motor-cross commercials, and their rule of thumb is more important than the value of my patronage. As I looked around the EMPTY bar, it became abundantly clear that their success is directly proportionate to their interest in customer service. Zero point zero. Ok, whatever, I'll watch it on another screen. It's worth mentioning they had the game on some old beat projector that I'm sure looks great when the sun rays aren't pouring in, but is otherwise useless. Did I mention there were 11 people in the bar and we are two of them? I told the mouthpiece I understand rules, but asked if she understood it was a playoff game? That's when the owner stepped in and said "if there's a customer who walks in that wants to watch something other than the sixers they can!" Duuude, nobody was walking in, and you have two customers (20% of current base) right in front of you making a simple request. Honestly, it wasn't that big of a deal... to their point we could watch a tv that wasn't in front of us, but come on.... nobody is in here, and nobody is coming in here... we all you got, we all you need. Help me help you. I'm happy you stuck to your guns, but per your request I'll be at PJ's next time I want to enjoy a beer. I'm confident most of your first time customers don't repeat the mistake. I'm also confident you will read this, get heated and instead of learning and growing you will choose to continue down your path of self destruction. The place is a playground for Jon Taffer. 2 Stars because the wings didn't suck and Missy knows what's up. Those other two though... wow. If you like ignorance, this is the place for you to watch the game. Trust the process, question the railroad house.

However, when I WAS drinking, this was where I would go when I was looking to erase the entire hard drive. You roll up into a gravel parking lot in the middle of the woods and gaze up at an old house that surely can't be a bar!? Ah, but it is. When you walk in there are usually 3 or 4 disgruntled looking locals that all stare up at you as if you were a wild ground hog that got in. The bar is adorned with old beer signs and ceramic beer mugs crafted to look like a huge pair of tits. The bartender is a portly old man with a PA Dutch accent. If the angels smile down upon you, the owner's cat might come strutting along the bar top as you order and allow you to pet him. The curtains and paneling are the stuff of a white trash wonderland. When I used to go here I would get $3 grey gooses. Where the fuck else in the universe can you get $3 grey goose? The prices here are retardedly cheap. I would drink the goosies until I was shit hammered and then make out with some crusty forest dweller when I went out to blaze a cig; or I would have to call for someone to come get me because I couldn't even walk through the parking lot without weeble-wobbling like the god damn walking dead. This place is a local gem. If you like dive bars--weird dive bars with PA Dutch flavor, check it out. If you are an alcoholic that prefers to drink in an almost private place, this is it, boy--like your Pop Pop's basement on steroids with better company,

We went with the small plate prix fixe menu (three courses), and each dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and -- most importantly -- delicious. Every course left us wanting just a little more, which is exactly how a tasting-style experience should feel. Nothing felt rushed, and the pacing of the food was on point. Cocktails were also excellent, creative, well-balanced, and fitting for the ambiance. The only hiccup of the night was drink service being a bit slow. Not a dealbreaker by any means, but noticeable. Overall, a great Restaurant Week experience in a space that feels both intimate and fun. I'll absolutely be back to explore the full menu soon.

Last time I was there I felt like I was trapped in a bad episode of the Twilight Zone, mashed between two hillbillies I went to high school with and sweating like a pig at Berks Packing all to the soundtrack of "Friends With Tractors." First off, there are some good things about this bar. Number one: It's one of the biggest dives you can imagine and that can be very cool, especially if you are catching up with old friends and don't need the loud, annoying bullshit. Two: Great jukebox (now if only I could get my f*cking song in before this line of slack jawed, Banker's Club-gulping boys decide they are all going to play Nickelback or "I Got Friends In Low Places" for the hundred and tenth time). Three: Shuffleboard table. Yes, yes and f*cking yes. The bartenders aren't always the friendliest. However, I will be the first to admit that I'd be pissed as hell if I had to serve the same rowdy, loud mouthed Conrad Weiser graduates night after night (the CW being my alma mater, I know how much of a pain in the ass we can be). But for f*ck's sake, have some of these people ever smiled? Oh God, in the winter this place is like a watering hole in Mother Russia. The older female bartender with the giant rack--well I seriously have never seen her crack a smile. I've been going to Falco's since a ripe young age too. She's shot looks across the bar that suggest when she finishes her beef jerky stick she's going to crack a cinder block over someone's head. This woman is NOT f*cking around and will probably choke slam you if you piss her off. Sounds fun, right? Kind of. Like I said, if you're (A) catching up with friends (B) a raging drunk that wants to sit more than ten hours and get cooked or (C) a seventeen year old kid with a fake ID gettin your ya ya's out. The biggest problems....... the ambiance sucks ass and the drink selection sucks ass. It's kind of like hanging out in your grandparent's moldy basement with the brown recluses and pop corn ceilings. And don't even ask about a f*cking cocktail because you will get shut down so fast "it'll make your head spin." My exact conversation with the bartender (FACT): "What do you have?" "Everything." "Can I have a cosmo?" "What's that?" "Eh vodka, cranberry and triple sec. In a martini glass." "We don't make no fancy drinks here." "Ok then. What do you have for beer?" "Everything." "Can I get an IPA." "What's that?" Bartender getting more pissed. "India Pale Ale." Bartender extremely pissed. "We don't have it!" "Blue Moon?" "Don't have it." "I thought you had everything." Me grinning. "Miller, Pabst, Yuengling." I take the Yuengling and shut up before I am dismembered, put in the freezer, stuffed into a jar of red beet eggs and given away as the prize on Bingo night.
