    Got to town late and starving from traveling all day. We found the Side Rail and the based on the menu we knew this would hit the spot. Ben was our server. We tried several of his recommendations. We had the Geronimo burger, the French onion burger, one with the sidewinder fries and one with the mac & cheese. Everything was extremely delicious. I also had to have the pretzels with the beer cheese. I tried everything we ordered and loved it all. Ben was amazing friendly and took good care of us. His recommendations were great too. If you are in Wapakoneta, I highly recommend the Side Rail!!

    Classic burger and sidewinders

    Finally had a chance to check this place out after several trips back home. My dad and I stopped in for lunch about 12:30 on a Saturday. It was packed. Room at bar, but we opted to wait for table. They took our number so we could walk around, but we only waited five minutes maybe. I orders the classic burger and did American cheese and carmelized onions with the sidewinders. They are kind of a short wedge style fry. The burger was amazing. I ate the whole thing, which is pretty unusual for me. The sidewinders were good, but I'm more of a traditional hand cut fry gal. Don't pass this place by-completely worth it!

    The hubby and I stopped in here this past weekend on our way to the Armstrong Museum in Wapakoneta. We were quickly seated and the waitress was wonderful! We ordered the sauerkraut balls, which were delicious and had a spicy sauce to go with them. I had the french onion burger with the sidewinders and he had the the bacon station burger and they were the juiciest burgers we've ever had! The sidewinders filled us up, but we made sure to finish our burgers and the sauerkraut balls. Delicious!! We will be back again!

    It was really busy so I'm giving some grace. The loaded sidewinders were delish, mostly because of the beer cheese. Over all everything was good but needed more seasoning. A little salt and pepper goes a long way. That said, I'd go back for sure and just be ready to add some salt.

    Cocktail menu.

    Best food in Wapakoneta, hands down. I have eaten everything on the menu at least once. I would recommend it to anyone local or visiting. You won't find a better lunch/dinner in the town. Seating for family's, kids and groups. Full bar with an absolutely Amazing staff.
