The service was great and the food was delicious . Place looked a little dark but we had a great experience . Would highly recommend the chicken wrap it was very tasty. read more

I still like this place. The fish in my fish tacos were over-fried. And the music, with hard rock blaring, was too loud. But our server was pleasant and the traffic noise added to the Ramshackle mood. My wife enjoyed her Cuban and salad, which was quite large. The prices are reasonable. read more

Their chicken sandwich is too tough to bite. They don't even allow you to substitute fries for a cheaper priced side item and want to up charge you for a cheaper item when the tough sandwich is already $13. Ridiculous!!! read more

Well we certainly were correct about the new owners, it was not our imagination: https://www.leesburg-news.com/2025/04/08/inspector-shuts-down-popular-leesburg-restaurant-after-finding-roaches/ So this establishment has plummeted from being my favorite restaurant to now being permanently off our list. Much like with Boeing, it takes a long time to build up a good rep, but no time at all to irreparably destroy it. read more

Dont advertise "grilled" wings but bring subpar fried wings to the table. And if baked potatoes take 18 minutes, tell guests that when they order instead of when dinner arrives and then have to wait 18 min. Tesch wait staff to not pass tables 5X without checking on them. read more

Food was great and fresh and priced. Affordable The atmosphere was annoying due to the band playing outside in my left ear and music inside. Ask the waiter to turn off one and the response was the turn up the music. No one goes there to listen to the music read more

I've been coming to Ramshackle for 26 years but tonight was my last time there. I took my 86 year old mother with me and our waitress Sara was extremely rude to her for no reason. She also tried to make a scene with me because I wouldn't pay her but choose to pay at the bar. She'd already lost her tip and knew it so she continued being rude. Sara needs fired, she doesn't have the right attitude to be a server. read more

"Big Flavor in a Cozy Shack!" If you're anywhere near Ramshackle Cafe and haven't stopped in yet--you're seriously missing out. I ordered the Mexican Burger and was absolutely blown away. The flavors were bold and perfectly balanced, and the portion size? Let's just say bring your appetite! The fries were golden, crispy, and piled high--almost too much to finish (but not quite ). The homemade chili deserves its own standing ovation. It had this deep, rich flavor that tasted like it had been simmering all day. Every bite was packed with goodness. The interior was clean and inviting, and the waitstaff couldn't have been more pleasant. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed happy to be there--which made my experience even better. This place nails comfort food with personality. Highly recommend! read more

Ramshackle Cafe - Mexican Burger - American Near Me - Leesburg, Florida

This place have the best food in town. Best drinks in town Will is one of my favorite Bartenders have to come see for yourself

Food used to be decent and affordable last I went there the menu completely changed they had no more wraps I had to special order it so instead of 12 bucks it was 19 the chicken was so sour I was afraid to eat it the told it was the marinade it's a shame I have been coming here biweekly for 8 years I guess I'll have find a new place read more

Visited tonight 5-15-26 6:23pm. Sat at bar. William was bartender. Not t friendly at all. Very curt and in a hurry to get at the other end of the bar. Needs more training in customer service. But left a good tip anyway. My grouper fingers were good but my husband's Buffalo chicken sandwich was tough. Have had tough chicken here in the past so you guys need to learn the art of marinating! As a note: we moved up to the bar because we couldn't get waited on in a booth! You guys are in sore need of new restaurant management and training!! read more

I've been to ramshackle four times and every time it has been exceptional! From the pulled pork sandwich, the best french fries you'll ever have, and the cauliflower wings, everything I've had there is amazing. The Cubano grilled sandwich is a must have as well. Love this place and plan on going back a lot. read more

I'm a regular. and it's to the point of disrespect with the bartender. tonite Will feels put out didn't even offer a menu. with 3 people at the bar on a Friday night. we reached over and got our own. he knows I like my drink how I like it. just feel the vibe that he's generally put out. the food is awful anymore. and there isn't a lot to choose from. Ramshackles's has gone to crap sorry but if you don't wanna give good service maybe this is not the gig for you and btw I have been coming here for years. the service the food has just gone to crap. but yet they want a good tip. read more

This used to be one of our favorite places to eat, but not anymore. All new menu and no longer have our favorite sandwiches. Today they didn't even give me any silverware to eat with! My husband ordered a bowl of chili which came out cold, he sent it back and all they did was put it in the microwave and reheat it and brought it back to him with his spoon still in it. We won't go back, many other places are much better now. Sad because we did love it before the changes. read more

I realize they are under new ownership, but thankfully the menu is the same. I go here specifically for the cheeseburger wrap. It used to be soooo good, now it's just ok. A bit disappointed. However, the service was good, and the they kept the nostalgic atmosphere. I'll go back and try it one more time, hopefully it will be better. read more

Loved the atmosphere here! Food was good, had the chili burger and fries. Would definitely come back!

Awesome food love the French dip sandwich .. service is always fast and the staff is very friendly

Food, ambience, and service all excellent! We get takeout and love the sweet potato fries!

Better than last time. Highlights: awesome onion rings and happy hour $5.99 BOGO wine. The wraps were good, wrapped tighter than last time so didn't immediately fall apart. We are split about the fries. I hate them and my wife loves them. The beer selection could be improved. Service was outstanding. The atmosphere hasn't changed - still quirky. And this time around, no flies everywhere. read more

Food was delicious! We had 2 orders of the fries pickles! I had the fish of the day and devoured it. My husband had their greek salad and he practically licked the bowl. We in town to get my truck serviced and stopped by for lunch. We would definitely come again. Only down side I would say was our server was a little slow but she was pleasant. read more

Just had our late lunch early dinner and we had a good experience! Service was prompt, courteous and helpful. The decor is fun, rustic and homey. My husband had the Steakout Sandwich and fries. He said it was good. Plenty of meat and fixins', fries were tasty too. I had the spicy Taco Salad. It was very good. It definitely had some heat but the fresh salad fixins brought about a good balance. We'll look forward to another visit. read more

Ramshackle is an unassuming restaurant with many good food options. Family friendly, good service. A bar-like feel with eclectic decor - lots to look at! read more

Amazing menu, great service. Would definately eat here again just to try something different from the menu.

I hadn't been here in 6-7 years and am glad I finally went back. Inside is decorated with a lot of license plates. There's a bar and a sectioned dining area. We sat outside which is close enough to 441 a distracted driver could easily plow through the tables. It makes it a little loud, but it's still enjoyable. Server was good, but seemed to not want to be there. They have a angry orchard and Sprite Zero but no Coke Zero. Had fried mushrooms appetizer that were good. My sandwich was good and I liked the fries that had a slight seasoning that was a nice touch read more

It is 5:30 on a Saturday evening and with a party of six they were able to quickly accommodate us! They have outside patio seating with fans and misters, but we were dressed for indoors this time. Next time I would love to sit outside and have apps with cocktails! The staff was super attentive and no matter who you interacted with was very personable. The menu is pretty large and they have a full bar for drinks, so we had several varieties from old fashioned to mai tai:) for dinner two had steak, one fish and chips, a burger, a chicken buffalo sandwich and a quesadilla were the main course items- all delish!! Oh- make sure to grab an order of cheese curds while you wait- soo good. We will be back! read more

That place your thinking of when driving down Route 66 looking for a dive type of place. Nice ambiance with friendly servers. We enjoyed our food... lots of sandwiches. A large menu with plenty of options for everything you might be searching for. Came here many times before Yelp existed. read more

We were in a party of 4, two of the dinners came with wings. When the dinners arrived there was no ranch or blue cheese for either order. The customer asked for ranch which is part of a wing. The waitress brought the ranch and all was good. Then the bill came and there was a charge for the ranch, SAD. I am surprised they did not charge for the ketchup we used on our fries and mustard for the chicken sandwich. If we had asked for extra I have no problem for the charge, but for something that comes with every order is a restaurant being real cheep and bad to their customers. read more

We ate outdoors and the traffic noise was deafening. The sweet potato fries were good as were the wings. Service was mediocre.

Megan was really nice The food was good!.. Drinks were on point .. Not very busy.. good location, looks like a parking spot read more

Ramshackle Cafe - Megan was really nice.. and they were playing the perfect music today! - American Near Me - Leesburg, Florida

I love finding these one-off type of places. They usually have cool décor, friendly service, and good food. Ramshackle Café is one of those places! We have driven past this place countless times, and finally took the time to stop in for lunch. Our server was really friendly, and when we told her it was our first visit, she immediately made a couple suggestions from the menu. One of those suggestions was to try their wings, and she said she prefers "medium grilled." That's exactly what we ordered, and we couldn't have been more pleased! The wings are sizable and meaty, grilled to a crispy skin with juicy chicken on the bone. Absolutely delicious, and some of the best wings we have had since moving to Florida nearly 4 years ago - in fact, some of the best we have had....period! the décor is rustic and down-home - I would call it inviting. It's fun to look over all the different license plates and wall-hangings that adorn the place. There are cool old pictures, old signage, and the plates are a blend of ancient and new designs! We will definitely be back for more wings, and plan to enjoy the outdoor seating net time. If you're near Leesburg and looking for a cool dining experience with a welcoming atmosphere and team, stop by Ramshackles! read more

Cute little bar& grill in an old HoJo location. I guess they've here since the 80s and it's definitely a destination for the local folk. I had two Ketels and an order of fried oysters. Pretty good, cute lil' bartender/servers seemed ready to go home after a long St. Paddy's Day, though it was only around 8:15. If I was in the area, I'd probably stop in again. It was a lively spot and the food was certainly serviceable. read more

Chelsie M was great actually excellant & personable. We went here because of the hype on a social media page I follow. We had also gone by there many times & it interested me. I tried the fried mushrooms (kind of small portions for 9.00) and they were good but not "the best ever" as stated. I had the lunch special of a 1/2 roast beef wrap and fries. The fries were hot & fresh and good. The wrap was just ok. Alot of wrap not a lot of meat. My husband had a Cobb salad. It came with a bread stick that was hard & crusty - not great Neither of us have a desire to go back. Would we if one of our friends wanted to? Yes but no draw to go back on our own. The parking isn't great and it's extremely hard to get back out on the road. I was disappointed because I expected it to be outstanding and it wasn't. read more

Food was not good. Mediocre sandwich. Wings were barely edible. Won't be eating here again. I don't really care about anything else but decent food for the money. read more

So many great places to eat in Florida. This place is just minus ok. The wings were not good. When we complained to the waitress she insisted the kitchen was just trying something new. The fries were cold. We should have asked for the manager. Had to ask for a second drink. Cute venue if that's what you are looking for. read more

Good food with reasonable prices and friendly atmosphere with a great location with enough parking.

5 stars because they exceeded my expectations. We were looking for some basic American food like burgers and wings so we decided to try Ramshackle. It was so good and our service was outstanding! I had the house burger cooked medium and it was very good. The chocolate mousse ball was really really good!. read more

Where to begin ..... we have been wanting to try this place for a couple of years. We had passed by on our way to service our vehicle in Leesburg and it was (in the past) ALWAYS packed! Thinking, " wow "... must be good; they are always busy. Today, we could not figure out a particular craving so we thought, let's try something new.... WELL... there are NO words... YET, so many UN-postable words that I could use to describe the experience. First, we walked into the side door where a family was having a rather heated discussion . (Ok... not a business matter and cannot blame the restaurant but it does speak to their clientele ). The wait staff were nice and allowed us to choose our seats ( why... NOT busy ... not sure what happened there). Menu has quite a variety so we ordered. Hubby got a wing / rib combo which advertised 5 wings (he got 4). There was soooooo much sauce it overwhelmed even though he scraped it off it was still too much ( his thought ... are they hiding something?????). I had a chicken sandwich which was all kinds of hardly any chicken and what was there were the spit in your napkin grizzly pieces. Needless to say, we left with a box of food we will likely trash as I do not know if an air fryer reheating it can even make it any more edible. THEN, went home to order door dash an hour later because we were still hungry. Mind you, this is coming from people who typically share a meal as serving sizes are usually too generous. Not this place. Bready, carby, yuck yuck!!! These are kind words. I could rename this place RAM$h**kle. AWEFUL!!!! Hubby said the BR was clean... I guess that's a positive... I left with the ickies!! SUPER sketch!!! One and done ...NEVER to return . read more

This place is average at best. I used to come here years ago and it was much better quality food. The last time I ate here I was not impressed. I got the Philly cheesesteak the meat was tough and very, very salty. I couldn't even eat it. It's not someplace that I would recommend, anymore but the service is OK but nothing special and the atmosphere is very quaint. Hasn't changed in 50 years old time saloon type atmosphere. read more

Ramshackles is a local favorite of mine when it comes to wings and more. Today I ordered the grilled teriyaki and the spicy lemon pepper wings and as always they were cooked just right, on the hard side but still juicy. Another favorite is the loaded potatoes skins which are flashed fried & loaded with bacon, chives, cheese with a side of honey mustard. Although the atmosphere is always festive I usually order to go and there is no "to go" drop off of quality that you typically get at other restaurants. Every Super Bowl, we place a huge order of wings and potato skins. If you really enjoy banging wings, this is the place to go and the service is normally fast and with a smile. Hopefully I'll see you there 'cause I'll certainly be back soon. read more
