Benchwarmer's Bar & Grill

This was my first time at this restaurant and I gave it a poor rating for the following reasons. First, the bartender kept trying to get rid of the foam as he poured beer from the tap in to the glass. He would dump out the foam, fill the glass with more beer and foam, dump off the foam and each time wipe down the sides of the glass with his ungloved hands. This was done maybe 5-6 times. Before serving the beer he sprayed water from a plastic bottle over the sides of the glass, but failed to dry the sides of the glass before serving the beer. Second, the service was erratic. The four entrees were delivered at different times, therefore we did not start eating together. There was a lapse of at least 5 min between entrees. The waitress had to be reminded to bring our additional food requests. Also sometimes she just dumped the food on the middle of the table. Third, the quality of food was variable. The breakfast item, biscuits, bacon, hash brown, ~3 tbs gravy, unmelted cheese and a single piece of charred bacon was not at all appealing. The chili was very good, chicken wings were excellent and steak dinner was also good. It was the beer and bartender, the breakfast item and a lackadaisical waitress that made for my poor rating. No excuse for being overwhelmed as there were four customers at the time we were there. Bad nights happen and unlucky for us it was one for the books.

It doesn't matter how big the burger is if it has no flavor other than grease. Tots were undercooked and cold. The service was horrible. Barely anyone in there and the bartender didn't even attempt to acknowledge me standing there until I forced him to. Never again.

Great atmosphere, good fun! Lots of different screens with various sports to enjoy while you are there. $1 Tacos on Tuesday! Great variety on the menu. They even serve breakfast all day at reasonable prices! Good mix of College kids and locals! Pool tables, giant Connect Four, Corn Hole, Lottery Gambling, Outside seating. Clean restrooms with nice handicapped access for patrons. Fun Bartenders....!

Been only twice and only for breakfast but I was impressed how good their food was and perplexed at how few customers there were. Maybe afternoon/evenings are busier. I’ll have to say, I’ve never thought that chicken and waffles sounded appetizing but I was curious enough to give it a try - sans honey (although on the side). Amazing! I would have theirs anytime. I highly recommend them and plan on checking them out for dinner sometime soon
