Absolutely fantastic! We needed a place to go near to home on St. Patrick’s and chose The Rusty Bucket. Great, older crowd, attentive server, and the best fried cod ever. Really, ever.
We were seated quickly by a pleasant hostess. The waiter, Leo, was great! He was friendly and entertaining. My hubs and I had the fish tacos, while we weren't fond of the flour tortillas the food was hot and tasted good. The Bucket Punch was good but sweet and hangover central lol. The bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Parking was good and adequate. An overall good experience and a fun place for adults.
So I stopped in for the first time because I have been searching for good places with great happy hours. The bar was quite lovely, which was a pleasant surprise. The service was super friendly and attentive at the bar (shout out Brandon and Brandon!) The Tuesday happy hour specials include half price bottles of wine, and I tried a red blend and took the bottle home. It was very smooth and very pleasant. I tried several things off the appetizers menu which were so half price, excellently prepared and served. The Brussels sprouts with lemon aoli were amazing, will be back!
The Rusty Bucket was recommended by friends, and we weren't sure what to expect from a regional chain of neighborhood bars. We were extremely pleasantly surprised, the food was amazing! I had the beef Stroganoff because my mom used to make it when we were growing up and it's not very common, you just don't see it on many menus. This was one of the best dishes I have ever had, hats off to the chef! Rich, creamy, flavorful sauce with plenty of fresh mushrooms and fall-apart tender beef. Even though it was a good-sized portion and I could have save some leftovers, I inhaled the whole thing and contemplated ordering a second helping... seriously! When we're back in the area, it will be difficult to order anything else off the menu because I can't see myself ordering anything but the beef Stroganoff.
First time there! Go for happy hour... Apps half price and pizzas $2 off (I think). One pizza is perfect for two. Great selection of beers on tap. Server knew about beer and made an excellent suggestion. Will be back!
20AUG23 - Dinner again while visiting my son. Still good, I will be back. 😎
21AUG22 - Had dinner here with my son . I had the breaded pork tenderloin and he had the cheese burger.
This has to be one of the best BPTs I've had. Not too thick not too thin, tasty breading, juicy. Just delicious‼️ My son reports that the burger was one of the best he's ever had too.
Great place, I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the Indy the area.

Staff friendly attentive and accurate we told our waitress one time that we didn’t want mishrooms and got our drinks come back and said ok so no mushrooms she actually took the time to listen intently to what we said. And then when we tried to give her accolades she simply said
Well I should be able to do that. It’s just part of my job. A very positive and refreshing outlook.
Critics may say well yes Leah that’s what servers do and I would say while that is the hope
not all wait staff and kitchen staff are always as good as the people at the rusty bucket are.

This was my first time and the place was PACKED!!! I was grumbling about the prices until I had the food... It was AMAZING!! From the food to the cocktails to the atmosphere I was impressed.
The guac was fresh and wonderful! The blueberry cocktail kept me wanting more! The food was yum yum yummy and our server has a happy lil girl who was great. A 10 out of 10!!! I'll be back!!!
My friend and I come from out of town to doctor's visits in the area and have stopped at Rusty bucket on numerous times!
We have never been disappointed in the food service or atmosphere for that matter!!
Today was no exception! We sat there and enjoyed every bite and our waiter was so polite and efficient! He definitely was a courteous professional at his job as a server! So pleasant!
I'm confident we will stop here again on our next visit to the area. We've tried other places but this is our favorite! 💕👍
We live in Terre Haute and have been here several times now due to doctors appointments! Every time the food is delicious and the service is excellent! Servers are always friendly and helpful! They are definitely doing something right here!
I went in about 1pm on a Friday. They were pretty busy. I was amazed how quickly my food came out. I devoured the Mr. Plot burgers with onion rings! When I say HOT FRESH AND DELICIOUS!!! Just that!! 10 out of 10 recommended!
Finding this restaurant was just pure luck. Where we live we do not have this restaurant. It was a perfect place after being at the natatorium for age group swimming finals. Their menu was perfect for everyone to find something they wanted and the appetizers (especially the fried pickles) were wonderful. Nancy was our server and she was a hoot while being very efficient. The chef was walking through the restaurant and stopped to talk to us then offered dessert that we all shared. I wish we had this restaurant group in northwest Indiana.
