Fossil Station Pizzeria & Pub

Definitely a place for the locals. Typical bar and grill feel. Serve your own soft drinks. I had the queso burger. I was asked how I wanted it cooked. I requested medium rare- it came well done and tough. Fries were greasy. The bf order spaghetti. It wasn't saucy- more like crushed tomatoes from a can. Service was service. Nothing extraordinary or even special.

I love the atmosphere! The booths are the best, their oven baked sandwiches are delicious. The kids menu for the spaghetti and meatballs is enough for me.Their 2/$10 appetizers are a fantastic deal. They have the best appetizers I've eaten from anywhere.

Nice pit stop for the weary traveler and one of our favorites now. Tracy, the bartender, is a goodin'!

Yummy! We had the Large All Meat Pizza and Calzone! Both were amazing! Definitely recommend this place.

Decent choice, not fabulous, but decent. Friendly customer service is a plus. I'd eat here again.

Terrible experience. Sat ourselves like they said when we walked in the door. Took 30 minutes for someone cone by to ask us what we wanted to drink. Went to the bar, female bartender was extremely rude. One waitress for the entire restaurant. Finally placed an order and sat for an extra two hours for a pizza that never came. After asking the server several times she said the cook lost our ticket. Ended up walking out.

I've been here the last two years on my way to Colorado. Both times the food was delicious and inexpensive. The service is wonderful. Highly recommend!

Ordered cheese burger to go and it was amazing ! Fries are greasy-fried mushrooms were very good- my sister who doesn't like mushrooms loved the breading w ranch-Great customer service too! Great environment, worth the stop-

Hello fellow yelpers!Let me start by saying yes I am a local but If you're reading this you likely want somewhere to eat In russell so that sort of makes you a local too. If just for tonight. Ok let's address the elephant in the room. The current reviews are not great. BUT most of them are for a completely different establishment. Current ownership has only been in place for a few years. Anything prior is unrelated. So with that in mind. We will start with service. This place has a few of my favorite folks working here and they are all focused on making sure you have a good time and enjoy your visit. If there is room at the bar go ahead and belly up! We're friendly and the bar tenders are multi talented (food and drinks). If not or if you have a large group the tables are just fine too the waitstaff out there is great too. Soda is self service from the fountain with as many refillsas you care to get. If something a little stronger strikes your fancy they have 5-6 taps with solid selections (avalanche, flight, michelob ultra, coots light etc). They also have a full bar with great mixed drinks if that's more you're speed.Now for the food. I typically gravitate towards the specials so I lay them out here. Monday: tacos! Believe it or not these are the best tacos in town. They make a fossil taco (similar to a double decker) in beef or chicken that is great! Or a smothered burrito that is also an excellent choice. Tuesday: my favorite! Wing night! No boneless junk wings here. These are the biggest juiciest wings in 3 counties. I cannot get enough! They have an array of sauces that will please anyone. If the wings aren't enough they also have 1.50 cans of your favorite beer. Wednesday: ok here's our first pizza night! Mediums are on special (7 or 8$ don't remember which) any way you want them. If you can't find a pizza you like here that's a you problem. I personally dig the firebox pizza. And a $1.75 draft to wash it all down. Thursday: varies so here we will talkAbout the rest menu in general. Salads, sandwiches, soups, pastas, oh an amazing appetizers (see more on this on Sunday). The special for Thursday varies but 2.50 well drinks are a staple.Friday: pizza take 2! 13$ large any way you want it. And $3.25 big drafts to finish the week of proper. Saturday: 9.99 double cheeseburgers! I find it remiss that I have yet to mention the burgers they are moist/flavorful and there are enough varieties to sate any burger lover. 12$ domestic buckets and Sometimes if your really lucky they have Karaoke. Sunday: funday! 2 for 10 appetizers. Tater kegs, rooster tails, fried mushrooms, egg rolls, mozzarella sticks, fried green beans mozzarella sticks! All awesome. The special rotates a bit but gizzards, lamb fires, pork tenderloin etc have made an appearance. Ok now for a plug for the waitstaff. Tracy, Sarah, Denise, Melissa and Mackayla all work very hard to make sure your drinks are full and your order is right. Stop in and say hello. It's a great place. Best in town. I have no affiliation with this location other than eating here way to often. I don't think about yelp very often when I home but after a recent trip I glanced through the local reviews and couldn't let it go without getting my review on the record.

Stopped here for lunch on a Sunday. Food is good. No charge for drinks. Had cheese tortellini Alfredo with chicken - very good. Flies were a problem
