    Bartender Cheyanne was friendly, polite and timely! She worked hard and made our evening pleasant…read more The food was amazing and DJ was an added bonus we didn't expect! Great place to relax and have fun!

Between pool table hogging and straight up saying we would not be given a turn even if we put quarters down, and a different regular walking up to us and telling us point blank that the owner/bartenders are racist and do not want us playing rnb or hiphop music on the touch tunes - this place was extremely uncomfortable and had bad vibes. The bartender was seemingly drunk by the end of the night and severely over worked, completely ignoring some of my friends who arrived later. Also she just let the extremely drunk regulars physically climb all over the bar, and kept giving them drinks. If you want creepy old drunk white men to comment on your overpriced darts game this is the place. The owner apparently hates POC so much they refuse to have any rnb or hiphop songs on the Touch Tunes - which I didn't know you could even do. We checked because we wanted to put on some usher but there was like no songs. No modern music either. Just some trash country songs, one in particular stood out to me as a man repeatedly sang how his girl rocks a beer gut. Yes that is a real song that played through without getting skipped. My girlfriend was told "I'm not saying you guys aren't welcome here but it's usually just us after midnight so..." referring to herself and other regulars. Again these people approached us every time. The drinks were cheap, thats all I can say good about this place. I don't drink and my friends each only had 1 drink considering you couldn't flag the bartender down, so we were definitely not drunk nor rowdy. We quite literally kept to ourselves, out of the way, and these people approached us. We were also told "people in Gahanna are just not very welcoming of others...". Excuse me? We are very familiar with the Gahanna area, some of us work/live here. Gahanna is very diverse and has some really cool and NOT racist spots. They were very clearly trying to get us to leave. We came to watch the nuggets v wolves game, and play some darts and pool, but definitely wont be back. And will warn any POC to steer clear of this bar. May as well have a sign saying "Miserable Middle Aged White People Only" on the front if you hate young POC so much.

Our waitress was pregnant, so at first I tried to give the benefit of the doubt and assume she may have just been tired, but the service overall was pretty disappointing. The food itself was fine, but the appetizer took quite a while to come out. Normally the fried pickles are so hot you have to let them cool down before eating them, but this time they came out barely warm and we could eat them immediately. For spending around $80, the experience just didn't feel worth it. It was difficult to get checked on throughout the meal. We ended up having to get our own ketchup, and refills either took a long time or never came at all. We also asked for more ranch, but it took so long to arrive that the kids were already done eating by the time it came out because no one was checking on our table. I also really don't like the way payment is handled there. Having the card machine brought to the table while the server stands there watching as you pay and select a tip feels awkward and uncomfortable. We are good tippers, but the setup still feels very pressured.

    Just found out - they are owned by Cameron Mitchell. WHAT. Doesn't he own in Columbus - no wonder…read moretheir food is so good tho. I work at Easton, come here when I work Saturday's to watch the games. The bartenders are fun and good. I've had wings, sweet potato fries (no brown sugar toppings if you think they do). A friend of mine told me she wasn't going to order them because of the sugar and I was like ummm way to judge - they don't have sugar. So now that we have stablished they don't come with sugar - their ceaser a with blackened salmon is great! So is the blackened chicken. Standard pub style - they also have a NICE outdoor patio that is also warm in the winter. Good drinks. Good good. Excellent pub.

    Rusty Bucket is all over Columbus. This 4-star rating is specific to the Easton location…read more It's a chain, so the menu is mostly the same regardless of location (from what I've seen in Columbus). And in my opinion, the menu is worthy of 3.5 stars, if half stars were a thing. Nothing is bad, but nothing is stellar, either. The kicker for me is that the prices are not proportional to the quality and type of food. It's like an expensive, elevated Applebee's, in my opinion. They do have a solid happy hour- definitely worth checking out. And they do have a couple stand-out items (buffalo chicken sandwich & bone-in wings) that I am fine paying full-price for, even if I still think they're priced too high. I'm increasing the Easton location to a solid 4-star rating because of the service. Host stand very friendly and accommodating, server was attentive and personable, and the food came out quickly (and hot)! Friendly reminder to tip your server based on the full cost of your meal, not off of the reduced happy hour cost, if you visit during happy hour. Keep it classy, Columbus!
