I like the Rockwood Tap House. It is an attractive well laid out establishment with a good selection of craft beers (including locally brewed beers), a variety filled menu, full bar, and friendly efficient service. I visited on a Wednesday afternoon a little after 4 pm. Only a few people there at that time, but that changed rather quickly. They offer some great daily deals from 3-6 Weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday. Some days there are food and drink specials while other days there’s only a drink special. I started with a regionally available craft beer and then moved to a couple local offerings. I appreciated the wide variety of craft beers available. Others were enjoying mainstream beers and cocktails. They had quite a few half pound gourmet burgers that were a blend of sirloin, brisket, and chuck listed on the menu so I picked the Rockwood Burger which came with 3 slices of American cheese, 3 slices of bacon, and topped with a fried egg. I requested Cheddar instead of American and that was no problem. The burger cane with a choice of sides, but I opted for sweet potato fries which was only a reasonable $1.50 extra. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly with music playing in the background at a mild volume. The bar is huge and is in the shape of a skinny “u”. Lots of table seating throughout this spacious bar and restaurant. I noticed everything was clean, organized, and well maintained. I overheard the bartender say the tap lines had just recently been cleaned which is great regular maintenance. They have a huge parking lot. Hotels are nearby which makes it convenient for a traveler like me.

Great place. Don't come here often because it's too far from home, but is a treat when I come this way. Had only steak the times I've been, and it was phenomenal.

My in-laws raved about the turkey burger and they were absolutely correct the turkey patty was well-seasoned and just delicious. The sweet potato fries were tasty as well. Now if they could just work on the service then this could have been a 5 star review. The place was pretty empty on the Sunday we attended. Serioudly only about 5 tables to wait on and yet we waited for water, drinks, etc. Not good.

The staff could not be nicer or more accommodating. Quality food and a great selection of quality beers, including a selection or two from Three Floyd's. Huge, clean restrooms. Nice atmosphere. Not too noisy, not too quiet. Good prices.

It's a nice looking place, very open and not cramped..sayra was our server and she was very friendly and helpful! Food Was pretty good. I got the pene which was a bit to salty for me personally but tasty. We didn't have drinks but the drink menu was really good. The food menu seemed to have something for everyone too! There were people of all ages and even a family there at the time.. They were playing some good music too. It was a good choice!
