Rootin’ for Roosters
A review of Roosters Brewing Co. on Ogden’s historic 25th Street: great food and atmosphere, weaker service.
Upon a stroll through the historic 25th Street and all of its wonders in Ogden, many restaurants can be found, but perhaps the most worthwhile, gourmet eatery of these is the classic Roosters Brewing Co. & Restaurant which has had its doors open to customers since 1994 in a historic building, over 100 years old. On top of Roosters having a great atmosphere and central location, it concocts and conjures phenomenal food. Extraordinary food including great appetizers, main courses, desserts, and in-house brewed beer.
Although, having all these great amenities, food and atmosphere, other critical aspects ceased to impress. Service is not up to the caliber that many other neighboring restaurants provide; drinks are not refilled, servers do not communicate well with customers, and due to the compact environment, it is very loud, and conversations need to be yelled, even in a discussion with a person across the table. Food can be pricey for the average Friday pay-day dinner with the family. If you have young children, food can be expected right after they have had their meltdown from being starved and have not eaten for weeks, or that’s how it seems.
Local cheese, local beer, what more could you need?
