Railroad House

No interest in this place. Typical bar food… over-​priced drinks/​beers. Rude staff!
It seems like this place is for 20+ year olds when price doesn’t matter and foods are fried! Lol

Whenever we come back to our hometown my wife and I make sure to stop and visit here. They have very good beer specials, and we are always happy with the food we get. As far as the wing flavors I highly recommend the sweet chili sauce, and we always get a basket or two of their mini pierogies. They have good food at a very reasonable price.

Ok so scenario goes as follows. Monday @1pm, 2 girls working 3 tables and 2 bar customers. I ask what style beer is the Evil Genius Santa? Ipa im told NO! Its a Holiday Saison. BIG DIFFERENCE! Even if u dont drink craft beers, u work at a bar that serves them, know what your serving. We waited over 25 min for an order of shrimp and clams, the one «bartender» finally mentions they had no hot water to cook the seafood in so were waiting for that to boil up. I then ask for a sample of the 2 different Mad Elfs. im told management wont allow it. Guess what your customer service is horrible and there is always an exception to every rule and i think this more than qualifies, we then end with getting charged for 4 beers instead of the 3 we actually ordered.

Came here for dinner with husband. The establishment has a typical bar sports bar feel and there is certainly no shortage on flat screen tvs. The menu consists mainly of sandwiches and appetizers with several different kinds of cheese steaks. We ordered wings and they came out well cooked and were a good size. We had them in the week’s sauce flavor which was hot honey bbq. They were absolutely delicious and well coated in the sauce. My husband had the big texas burger and it came out rare as ordered and all of the components were delicious. I had a bowl of the new england clam chowder. The soup was a little runny for a chowder but it was filled with minced clam and the flavor was spot on. We would definitely come back here again.

Food, drink and waitress were great. Moved to the bar cuz the dj came. The tall bald bartender was very rude to my friend and to a previous customer. If that bartender was removed from the business this place would be 5 stars

Awesome neighborhood bar where all is welcome. Great tasting food good beer selection and a friendly staff.

Great place to hang out and drink beers while watching a game or after work. The food here needs help however I didn’t really care for it and found it lacking flavor. It was just okay. Very nice atmosphere

Never would have known this place existed without Unilocal.Yummy sandwiches! My 6 year old enjoyed his quesadilla and the complimentary kids ice cream. Would visit again.

Super big burger, but needed fries without the extra charge. My Texas burger was overcooked, despite me specifying «as rare as possible.» The BBQ sauce was syrupy and far too rich. Needed more spice and tang. It was unbalanced, but the best part were the fried mushrooms.
Didn’t try beer this time.

The Railroad House recently changed their menu, dropping a few items and adding others.
One new item caught my eye, the Irish cheese steak, half pastrami and half corned beef. It was delicious and a wonderful variation on an old and venerable sandwich.

It’s been over a year since we last ate here. Very pricey for a French Dip sandwich which was nothing but what appeared to be a small amount of sliced deli meat slapped over a small piece of swiss cheese on a dry roll with a small cup of tasteless Au jus. And the drinks are expensive. We paid $ 40 with tip for 4 drinks and 2 sandwiches. Very poor for what’s available elsewhere so we’ll go elsewhere. Too many choices in Berks County such as Klinger’s make a much better sandwich.

If you’re pretty and you’re a female easy to get service. Drinks are strong, always. I actually hate that the drinks are always so strong. I would prefer if they would make the drink to taste it like a drink.
The DJ on the weekends is great! I love that he takes requests (from pretty girls or guys trying to get laid.
Thursdays there is a singer that comes on on a keyboard that is awesome! I’m not sure if he’s still there or if he trained a apprentice to be there instead but he was the main reason I started frequenting this bar so much.
Not a bad bar but not a classy one either. You get what you pay for.

This place gives me seriously mixed emotions! I like it, I don’t like it, I like it, uuuum!!! Been here a handful of times when friends want to go, definitely not my first pick. Haven’t tried the food here so this review is strictly for my bar experience.
Can’t beat the prices. Had a double gin and tonic and two huge margaritas which were pretty mediocre. With the tip I spent a whopping $ 23. Deck is a nice hangout during the summer months. I also like the fact that they have bands on Saturday evenings with no cover charge.
Here’s what I don’t care for… anytime I have visited, the bartenders aren’t very friendly. And ladies be advised, there are always a lot of pretty girls at this bar but rarely any men that are worth looking at. It’s kinda weird. As other Unilocalers have mentioned this place does attract all ages.
Maybe next time I visit I’ll be able to make up my mind but for now I like it and I don’t.

Definitely a solid place to enjoy the game or just dinner and a couple of drinks. The owners are very nice and usually on site to chat or provide guidance on the menu.
It is standing room only past 6pm on most weekend nights — but do not let that discourage you. The bar staff is able and slings spirits out with no problem.

If you are from Berks County and have friends and a family, chances are they hang out at the Railroad House on the weekends and in the summers. Every time I have been to this bar, it has been packed with old acquaintances, friends, parents’ friends, even family members. This can be good for those who want to re-​engage with homers they haven’t seen in a while, or it can be bad if you are the type who likes to avoid this act.
The bar itself is usually fairly clean and the staff are friendly. The other positive is how incredibly cheap this place is! All of the times I have been here, I have felt guilty because of how little I’ve had to pay for some beers.
The main negative about this bar is definitely the parking lot. It isn’t lighted; if its winter or raining, you are faced with a muddy, rocky, trench-​filled walk from your car; and it just has a generally creepy feel to it. Another negative is how hard it can be to find a seat in this place. It is really good that RRH is doing well, but it translates to little seating for patrons.
I would recommend this bar for those in the area looking for a cheap drink.

Great place for a game, neighborhood gathering spot
THEE best margaritas east of mississippi

Great service and great beer selection. Definitely a hot spot to catch a game!

Get here early because this place is always packed, and parking can be a choir. Be it from a lazy Sunday to a Thursday night. All ages come here. The drinks are pretty cheep, the service is great! The food is pretty good too.
Great location to people watch and interact with the locals. There is a really kick ass porch to relax on.
I do have to say the Railroad house does earn its name. There seems to be a train going past at least once every half hour.
I recommend that you come by and check this place out.

Maybe it’s because I’ve grown up and moved far, far away. Or maybe it’s because I’ve come to the realization that when I go home, any bar I go to is going to be like a high school reunion, whether or not I like it.
This is typical Berks County nightlife. The most eclectic, random people will be here on a weekend night. My best friends frequent here, as does my mother and her friends. Even my little sister’s friends get in on the action.
My first experience was walking into a karaōke night, or so I thought. It just happened to be the band performing. Thank goodness they don’t charge a cover. Since then I’ve had some issues with some bartenders not understanding the difference between tonic and club, having to defend myself against the smoker’s cloud coming from the deck outside, and standing my ground when those 50+yr olds get drunk and sloppy and try to harass my friends and I.
I’ve been witness to a bouncer throwing someone out for looking at him wrong on a Wednesday night and to the crowds getting a little rowdy on a Saturday. I’ve heard the food is good — each week night there seems to be a special late night food. Prices are comparable to any bar in the area, but I refuse to pay for shots that aren’t served in glass shot glasses though. And those little plastic rinky dink cups don’t cut it for me.
Can’t give it less than three stars because it’s a default bar to go to when I visit home, can’t give it more than three stars because it doesn’t blow me away. I’m sure I’ll be back next time I’m in town.

Good food, nice staff and up to date décor. Nice for lunch or dinner. Kid friendly during the week. Weekends are a younger croud.
