Rusty Bucket is one of my favorite spots to eat at. I am not one to visit the same restaurant over and over again because we have such a variety in Columbus, I want to try them all. However, I will go to Rusty Bucket five times a week if need be! Ha! I LOVE IT! The atmosphere. The people. The employees. The food. All of it is on point at all times.
I love when you walk into a restaurant and you can instantly tell the employees love being there. That’s exactly what you find Rusty Bucket. The employees love their co-workers. They love the food. They love being there. I think that speaks very highly of a place. With 24 restaurants, 10 being in Columbus, I would say they are doing something right.
On their menu, which is all made from scratch, I promise there is something for everyone – even having a special gluten friendly menu and a wonderful menu for the kiddos! Listed below are a few of my favorite things to order.
Happy Hour
Only in the bar area (don’t worry, they have tables, high tops and seating at the actual bar), Monday-Friday 3-6 PM for half priced appetizers & pizzas. Along with $1 off all beer, wines & cocktails! Enjoy our Juicy Lucy (Bucket Double Cheeseburger) for $5!
Bucketeer Bookworms
The Bucketeer Bookworm Reading Program is designed to encourage kids to read. Enrolling is child’s play: just visit your neighborhood Bucket and ask for your Bucketeer Bookworm Bookmark Tracker. When they finish five books, they earn a complimentary kid’s meal!
