Rafferty's Restaurant

Decent. Middle of the road, in a town that features mostly average fare. We've been here many times, for some reason my youngest daughter always requested this place and it was a frequent choice after Etown soccer matches. We were just here, the first in a couple years hiatus. The menu is very much the same, if there were any changes I didn't notice. It's really starting to look it's age. We sat out on the deck, most of the tables were not bused or cleaned and there were a couple of chairs towards the back that they just stacked dinner ware upon it. The staff have always been friendly and pretty attentive to their guest, never a long wait to be served drinks or entrees. There is a small though nice selection of beers on tap, I'm partial to Hefeweizen and they've had one on tap for the dozen or so years we've been coming here. As far as appetizers, their deep fried mushrooms stands out. Always served piping hot and crispy. The nachos are a good choice too. We've had most of their entrees over the years and most are pretty good. The ribeye sandwich or the prime rib are my usual choices though the last 2 times the prime rib was quite unappetizing. It arriving just like the photo that shows up when you look for Rafferty's on Yelp, pink with a grey hue and very bland. The wraps, burgers, club sandwiches and loaded baked potato are popular with my family and they seem to like them, but like most everything here, it's just okay. Rafferty's, nothing to get excited about, just like this unenthusiastic review. I just want to get to 140.

It's been a really long time since I've ate at Rafferty's and going to be a longer time now, the food was terrible, I ordered a Jackson Hole filet, if I where the town of Jackson Hole Wyoming I'd be upset, i ordered medium it was burnt, no flavor and so tough to eat I ate a quarter of it, you would think the waitress would have ask if there was a problem why I didn't eat it. My wife and daughter had the chicken salad, they both said it was dry and not very good, the son in law had the burger, that's the only reason I gave it a 2 star rating, three of us had the potato soup, it was bland, we used half a bottle of salt to at least be edible, two of up had the fries with cheaper and bacon, came out cold and not much flavor. The waitress was great, the atmosphere is loud.

Delicious and great service. Great music and lighting as well, very nice environment. The croissants were warm and the honey glaze on them were delicious!

Nice place service was outstanding. So food is your typical chain restaurant stuff. I had the smoked salmon. To me( my opinion) it was to dry and was on the smoker to long. , kinda tasted like they used that liquid smoke stuff. ) but it was edible. Atmosphere was loud and very "sports oriented " great place to meet the guys for a beer or a first (5-7) rate date girl. Kinda place. Parking was great tons of room and right off the main road, super easy to find.

Put in a carry out order for over $120 worth of food for an important office lunch meeting the day before pick up. Pickup time selected was 11:30AM. When I arrived at 11:15AM ahead of time for pickup just in case, I was told the "ticket just popped up."Needless to say, it's 15 minutes past pickup time. My drive is an hour away for the meeting and I still don't have the food I ordered the day before pick up. Won't be spending a large amount of money here anymore. Unreliable and to top it off, the customer service was terrible- especially since it was their fault!

I got my steak and asked for medium rare it came out completely uncooked inside. Returned it for them to bring it out burnt and still the same inside. My wife got the salmon and got food poisoning from it which made her very sick for the past two days. I left without eating my steak and the bill was still $50....

Visited Rafferty's for the first time today and will probably be the last time.Ordered chicken strips and broccoli for lunch. I didn't have my glasses on so I didn't realize the meal was $17.99 which is rather expensive. The order size was more than expected so I guess that was why it was so expensive. The broccoli was crisper than I like so I requested it be microwaved to soften it. Helped a little but the stems were still hard for the non seasoned broccoli. Chicken tenders were very tough like they had been microwaved and they really didn't have any flavor. Should have ordered the soup which looked really good and according to my cousin it was very good.Wait, it gets good now.....We decided we would get dessert to take with us so we had a treat later. I looked at the menu and decided I would try banana cream pie because it looked really good. It cost $8,99 which was expensive but decided to give it a try because the picture looked delicious.Our to go order was delivered in a huge paper bag which was quite bulky to carry. Looked in the bag to check out my pie and found a wholeBanana in the container with the pie. I was informed that the pie did not have bananas on it because they would turn brown. So I was supposed to put the bananas and toppings on my pie. Logic was understood but it would have been nice to know in advance that my pie was a do it yourself dessert. Wonder why they didn't reduce the cost? I would have probably ordered something elseSliced the banana at home. The banana had a bunch of bruised spots that had to be cut off so I didn't even get a full banana.Just wanted it to be known that if you orderBanana cream pie to go you will have to put your own banana on it. They don't mention that on the sign outside and they don't reduce the price of the pie that doesn't look like the picture on the menu.

Went for drinks & dinner, not again. Prices are way too expensive especially for the amount of food we received, (I guess since we r not "regulars".)We ordered same items as a "regular" and our food portion was 1/2 what they received. We knew they were regulars because they said so! If you don't cater to the bartenders on a "regular"basis, they don't care to serve you and charge you .39 for every sauce, etc. Ridiculous when you pay $3 more to have your fries loaded and then u have to pay for ranch to go with them? Regulars don't pay that. Bartenders tolerate others and only do bare minimum for outsiders. Managers r not customer friendly either. They act put out when you ask them a question about bill. I will spend my money with a restaurant that wants to serve its customers and not act or treat its customers like outsiders. I would b a "regular" if I was treated better!

This used to be our place for prime rib, but the last visit was our last. We ordered an appetizer and the prime rib entree. The appetizer and our salads arrived at the same time. No sooner than we started eating the appetizer our entree arrived, and the waitress gave us our bill. By the time we finished the appetizer and salad, our entree was cold. I tried it anyways and I know prime rib should be reddish pink, but this chewed like bubble gum. We had no luck finding our waitress so my wife finally called the restaurant on her cell and asked them to find her. This brought the manager to our table and he made no effort to right anything other than heating our meat in a microwave. Never again. Trying Cork and Cleaver this week. Hope to find a new prime rib place.

The food was at best mediocre. My steak was tough it should have been jerky. The waitress was rude and seemed like we were bothering her. It's been a while since I have eaten here now I know why.
