You need reservations to dine here. There was complimentary bread and peach jam. They have a rotating selection of daily specials, cheeses, and change their menu frequently. I also appreciate the "small plates" section for when you're not that hungry. The cheese board appetizer was a surprising favorite. It had items sourced from local farms. Our waiter was very accommodating and did a good job with recommendations and explaining the intricacies of each item.

Our bartender was very intense. He was nice but also behaving like the bar was 2 or 3 layers deep. I honestly was worried about him. The burgers were good, and I liked the house made chips. The drink special was a beautiful pink to go with the festival. It was cool to hang out with locals and travelers alike. I definitely recommend stopping into The Rookery.

I loved the taste of the country fried steak but would've enjoyed having it battered more prior to frying. Food was a smidge too salty but everything tasted so good that I didn't mind so much.

As I was leaving, I caught a sign showing a different version of it too.

The home made soup was fantastic. Service was excellent. The second time the food was not so good. And last night it was a horrible experience ! However, great service and atmosphere but the so called fresh cooked Burger and fries with sautéed mushrooms. By the way, I specifically asked the waitress if it was freshly cooked to order because so many places keep pre-cooked Burgers in a warmer and quickly warm them up. A process easily identified by the dryness and inside temp of the meat. The small Salad was ok. The 2 lukewarm Biscuits were a little dry and undercooked. The sautéed Mushrooms were like shoe leather, dry and overcooked. The Fries were cold as was the dried up poor excuse of a Burger. Too bad there is no pride in the Kitchen! Hard to beat 5 Guy's for a good Burger. Having traveled just about everywhere in the USA. My review should be taken seriously. This place needs a Kitchen Manager that cares about all the food they put out. Not just the semi fancy gourmet that they try to produce there. If they got their Kitchen in order it could be a great destination restaurant !

For cocktails, my husband ordered the Mango Sunshine & I ordered the Cucumber Mojito. Both were refreshing & tasted good overall, but did seem quite weak. For dinner, my husband ordered the braised short rib from the Specials menu & I ordered the lamb chops, one of my absolute favorite foods. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare & they were quite overdone, with the last one I tried to eat being well done. The brussels sprouts on the other hand were quite underdone, and were solid to the point that I couldn't even stick my fork through them. I asked for asparagus as a replacement, which ended up being underdone as well. My husband felt his mashed potatoes were too salty & that his broccoli was cooked into mush, but had no issues with the short rib. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, & the complimentary biscuits were absolutely delicious. Overall, for the high prices they charge at this establishment, it is absolutely not worth it. I do not think we will be returning.

We arrived around 3 so the place was pretty empty minus a few at the bar. We ordered the Brewpub Fire balls as an appetizer. Wow! These were great...cheesy, crispy and a they pack a kick.

I had a blue cheese burger, no longer on the menu but a smash burger with bacon, blue cheese crumples, blue cheese aioli with the standard garden fixings with onion rings. The sandwich was flat out amazing. I almost couldn't eat it fast enough. I got fries by accident but the brought out the onion rings later. Overall a great experience.
