Always decent but not remarkable food and terrible service. We took a year off of eating here because service is always too poor to bring family in for dinner. We had to go inside 3 separate times during meal to ask for silverware, for refills on drinks, and to ask to pay our bill after waiting 30 minutes after food was finished. We saw waitress only twice (to order and to bring food). After going inside to ask to pay we were told our waitress was off the clock but no one replaced her—this happened to me a year ago and again tonight so clearly nothing has changed. Tonight our waitress was sitting inside at a table on her phone, but had abandoned us in the middle of our meal. Not an enjoyable place to have dinner out still.

Went here based on the overall great reviews. Upon walking in it was clear LGBTQ individuals aren’t well received. Decided to stick around to eat and ended up being confronted by a drunk bigoted customer. I will say the waitresses handled the situation well and kicked the guy out. That being said I felt uneasy the entire time I was there prior to the incident. Not an accepting and inviting customer base. I’ll definetly stick to Reclaimed Rails across the street which has an atmosphere that is a complete 180.

The only thing that’s guaranteed inconvenience with Founder’s is the lack of help. EVERY time I go to this bar, there isn’t enough staff to help with the crowd size. They’ve got bartenders running food, taking orders, completely leaving the bar area to help people at the tables. That is the only issue I have with this place. Other than that its a great vibe, fun patrons, awesome food, nice staff, and a good beer selection. Love coming here on warm summer nights!

The owners/management of this establishment should be ashamed of themselves. We have given this business more than a handful of opportunities to redeem itself. Tonight, we ordered onion rings and breaded mushrooms. An hour later, we had the smallest portion of each I had ever been served…. And both room temperature. It kinda sucks living in a town with an establishment that cares so little to produce a quality experience with a quality product so close to home. Never going back.

The fries were crispy the ranch was really good. Service always friendly, Kelly that bartends on afternoons is always friendly and very attentive with great service. I don’t necessarily have much to say on the food as I haven’t tried it. But it’s a good spot for drinks and fries

Service was good but we ordered 1 mule and 1 Blue Moon. Total was $14. Pretty stiff for a small town local dive bar.

Our group came for a little informal meeting and sat outside on the patio. Two of us ordered the cheese burger special which we had to explain to our waitress what the special was since she didn’t know there was a special. “Oh, there’s a special? Oh, whatever”, she said. Three others ordered the pepper jack cheese balls. And three beers, one soda, and two waters were ordered. After 30 minutes of not even getting our drinks I went inside to the bar and complained to another bartender and while I was doing that the original waitress went back to our table to get everyone’s order again but she stopped me while I was complaining to the other waitress to tell me she just took our order again but she was going to follow me back out again because she couldn’t remember what it was and she said she’d write it down this time. And then came to verify the order one more time. So she’s taken our order 4 times now! The 2nd waitress brought our drinks to us then. So our original waitress finally brings out our food and she says, “look fast service!” Wth?!? And guess what she brought our table, 7 cheese burger specials! So the people that ordered the cheese balls said they’d just eat a special instead now because by this time everyone is starving. The 2nd waitress, the good waitress/not high waitress brought us all another round of drinks without us having to flag any one down, kudos to her, she saved the day! But our original waitress came over then and she actually complained about the 2nd waitress and blamed everything on her! Again, what drug was she on tonight? Then she says she’s going to get the bill and we told her we weren’t paying for the 5 extra cheese burger special. She said, “well you guys ate all but 2 of them.” We tell her, “yes because you didn’t bring the cheese balls out.” Then she said, “oh, I’ve got that order in for you now.” We said we were leaving and forget them but….she brings an order of cheese balls and two to go containers which one was full of ketchup and mustard. We waved the good waitress over and gave her a tip and as soon as we did that our high waitress came over with the bil. Of course our bill was incorrect!! Shocker! We got the good waitress to handle the bill and got most of the food knocked off and got the extra drinks that magically appeared on our bill off too. Obviously, there’s a waitress there that shouldn’t be a waitress period. Oh boy….We’ve been there before and have had great experiences but tonight…tonight was something I’ve never experienced in my life. ♀️ ♀️
