So many dive bars, so little time. This place has been around for over 75 years. 75 years! This…read moreplace was serving drinks before television. Unfortunately, unlike some wine, great age did not improve them. Yikes is this ever a smoker's bar. I walked in, peered through the carcinogenic haze, and saw a long bar in a narrow room. Of the fourteen stools, nine were occupied with patrons actively smoking. As they were so obvious I counted 10 ashtrays lining the bar. To complete the scene the bartender served my drink with one hand while holding a cigarette in the other. To be fair my drink was good and cheap. I noticed that there was a separate dining room with a separate outside entrance. Ah ha, this must be the non-smoking part of this place. Think again. There is a big sign on the dining room entrance door that says "Smoking Permitted." At least they don't need to worry about the quality of their food. Most of the patrons can't taste, smell, or see it. It's clear that Busty's has a following. I just won't be one of them.

It is a wonderful neighborhood bar!

That is crazy. I live in NJ , so I always forget that some PA bars are smoking. There were several people smoking, but I didn't walk out smelling like an ashtray & it didn't bother me at all while we were in there. I don't live in the area anymore, but I will definitely be back when I'm visiting.

I've been driving by this place for years and finally I stopped in just because it was there. This is a neighborhood dive bar that doesn't pretend to be anything but what it is. It's very dim and the bar itself seats about 20. THE GOOD- * Nice parking lot to the left and back of the building. Much better than street parking. * Vivacious and attentive bartender. * Cheap drinks. THE BAD- * Don't come here for craft beers. Beers here are mostly cheap domestics and meant to be guzzled. * And unbelievably foul mouthed crowd. I quickly tired of f**k and s**t from multiple patrons every other sentence. THE UGLY- * This is one of the few SMOKING bars remaining in PA! You can smell it from outside. I returned home, stripped and tossed everything in the wash. So what would it take to entice me to return? Victoria's Secret models as bartenders dressed like the commercials might do it but I'd need to think about it!

They have a full calander of events, went for a show my fiancé was playing. I liked that they had the bar side and then another like "seating" area with the stage. The guy who I think owns it ?

The rusty nail is a true and safe neighborhood gem with great music from local and traveling bands and cheap drinks. We received an update that the girl was identified and is okay

For those who like beers seems like they have a great selection not something I personally indulge in. They sell lottery tickets and have some great desserts. I would highly recommend giving them a try and would be surprised if you didn't enjoy whatever you chose to try.
