Rusty Rail Brewing Company

 

 

Huge facility, an old factory. Restaurant and bar. Spacious interior, the parking lot is full, but the place seems empty. Outdoor patio perhaps? Lengthy taplist, lots of IPAs. Interior decor gives a nod to the surrounding country, Amish, farms, etc. Service a bit slow. Good beer, flights available.

 

Visited on 12/26/22 on our trip from State College to Bethlehem.

Have been wanting to make the trip, and finally did it! This place is definitely a beer destination. Quaint town. Plenty of parking. Large open seating area. Gift shop. Rustic feel due to the reclaimed building. No guest taps. Plenty of offerings. Rooms available for overnight stays. How cool!

Just a couple blocks off main street, is this big old brick warehouse. There is also parking across the street, as this place is big and popular. There is a gift shop attached to the restaurant. There is a large bar area and the restaurant has large, two tiered, dining room and an upstairs dining room, as well. Lots of ambient light, from the windows. The interior has a mountain lodge type wooden aesthetic. The food is good with a good sized menu. The entire waitstaff are local teenagers.

 

Recently stopped here for a lunch break on my way out to Erie with a few friends. The vibe of the place is very nice, it's a much larger building than I expected. The decor is obviously train/railroad themed which I'm partial to since my grandfather worked the railroad for his adult life. The service was very friendly and helpful. The food was pretty good too. The beers are good, they're not earth shattering by any means but they'll get the job done for sure. Definitely a nice spot to check out if you're in that area.

 

 

Fantastically put together brewpub in the middle of nowheresville, Pennsylvania. Twelve of their beers were available on draft, and the bar itself looks absolutely stunning. Theee gigantic railroad-themed murals, a sweet, sweet upstairs lounge area, and tons of various animal tophy heads (yikes!). The spot is very modern with a very rustic overall feel. I was here on a Tuesday afternoon for lunch, and both the veggie chili and pierogies were good. My bar service was quite good, as well! This is a must visit if you’re in the area, yo. If I’m ever back up I’d certainly pop in again.

 

 

Enjoyed lunch and a flight at the Brew Pub. The brewery is located in a renovated industrial building. They did a beautiful restoration job and the facility is very attractive. The beers are very good and the food is well-prepared and tasty. I suspect that this brewery will become much better known as its distribution increases. It's definitely worth the stop.

 

 

Stopped in Saturday afternoon (Valentine's Day weekend) anticipating dinner and some craft brews! Impressive place with ample seating. Although the seating in the main floor dining area appeared to less than half full with patrons, we were informed there was "about an hour" wait for seating. Seating in the second floor bar, snack and game area was available on a first-come basis. After making our way to the second floor we managed to find seating for our group of seven. There were approximately 15 round bar-height tables, each having 4-5 chairs around them. Cursory estimate of 50-60 patrons on this second floor level. There was ONE staff member covering the entire area ... including the bar!! YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING .. never again ! ** have stopped in several times since that quite awful first visit...management seems to have gotten things under much better control ... pleased !

Great place! The smell of wort is in the air. The beer is great. You need to check it out.
