Sometimes in life you get hungry and you take a chance on a place with little to no insight or…read moreinformation as to what you should expect. That was me when I found myself rolling through Crawford, Nebraska and saw the sign for C's Drive in. I could not have been more pleasantly surprised with my overall experience here. The couple who owns and operates the place are exceptionally friendly and are doing classic grease-pit burgers/fries/milkshakes etc but with a notably personal touch. I spent some time talking to them as the place wasn't busy when I arrived, and I can tell you that they are working hard and paying close attention to the food that they're serving. No cut corners, just a couple of people who understand the value of serving good food as a way to make a restaurant succeed. They are passionate. I learned about the way they source the curds for their cheese curds and how they batter and fry them to perfection. I learned about the quality of their beef for the burger patties and how they tried a few combinations before deciding on what they use, (which is delicious), I learned about broasted chicken which is a way that chicken is prepared that leads to a fantastic outcome, (think fried chicken, but more crispy, never dry and loaded with juices). I feel like I can say with confidence that if you stop here and place an order, that the person preparing it will be taking their time and paying attention in order to serve you something that they can be proud of. Classic menu, exceptional execution. Don't second guess it. I had a double bacon cheeseburger, hand cut curly fries and the cheese curds because they sounded so appealing. Would order it all again. Still thinking about those cheese curds every day. All in all this is place is a great example of how good simple things can be when the people behind them show up and care about what they're doing. If you're in the area do not second guess it. The prices are right, the food is pure comfort, and you will leave kind of shocked at the overall quality and value of the place. 5 stars.

My family and I were saying in Fort Robinson recently for a family reunion and after one mediocre…read moredinner at the fort, we decided to branch out. The second dinner out was at R Bar because they were open on a Sunday (coming from the northeast, we forgot that in other regions, places might be closed that day) and while the super casual ambience and redneck vibe might have deterred others, we sank our teeth in. In addition to pool and such inside and ladder golf and hook and ring toss outdoors, there was also a stage outside where I imagine they have entertainment sometimes. The food was great. The service was great. The beer selection was small but they had something for everyone, and the food was state of the art comfort food. Thank you R Bar for giving my family and me something to get excited about!

First of all, the actual menu is nothing like what is shown online. The menu has a number of different options with Mac-n-cheese, yet they had none! The online menu showed soup, yet it wasn't even on the menu in the restaurant. We had to wait a long time for a table to get cleaned off so we could sit somewhere. The food took forever to be served to us. We had no napkins and the waitress said she'd bring some but never did. I hate to write such a negative review, but this was a bad experience. I realize this was a combination bar-restaurant and naively assumed there would be some separation between the dining area and the bar. Wrong! That's what I get for assuming. We were right amongst some very drunk and very loud people.
