My server Ashlyn was terrific. She gave perfect recommendations and fantastic service. I had the Shrimp Po Boy w/ Chips and Queso, and a Rice Crispy Boi lager. I will definitely be back! Edit: I had lunch here again and sat at the bar. Sage and Brandy took care of me together and the service and food was fantastic! I wish I could give this place another 5 star review!

Had traveled to Atlanta for 1 or 2 days recently. On our way back from Atlanta, (visiting from Florida), asked person i was with if she would like to stop for little bit, decided to get a break from driving and also get something for Dinner (was about 5pm). We both enjoy trying smaller restaurants, instead of bigger popular restaurants (chain restaurants). It has been awhile since I have passed through Cordele, GA. I am glad we stopped here! It was a little bit away from highway (interstate), but the service, atmosphere, and food was extremely good! They seem to have good selection of food items (and drinks) for most everyone! I had the Ultimately Cheese Burger, and it might have been one of the best burgers I have had in awhile! The French Fries were very good also! Our hostess, and our server were very nice and helpful, and did not take long to be helped, and or to get our food. The atmosphere was unique but welcoming and nice. It might be awhile until getting to visit, but very much recommend if visiting Cordele, or passing by and looking for great food! Thanks for a great visit

Great food! Lemon Pepper Chicken was amazing! I honestly expected it to be dry but it was mouth-watering. Love the tall glasses for drinks they give you. Onion rings were a little over cooked but still tasty. The best thing are the fries, if I could choose any restaurant in Cordele to get fries from, it would be Railhouse.

We were looking for something we didn't have in our town to eat. Found the billboard advertisement and decided to go for it. The server was very sweet and very accommodating. He ordered a salad, nachos, wings, & fries. I got a goat burger, & fresh fried pork rinds. The pork rinds are fried to order. The came out still popping. I also order a drink there & a drink to go. Both were very good.

We stopped for lunch, the building is old, but has great character. The food was good and service from Wyatt was excellent. Restrooms were clean and updated. Railhouse Tavern should be on your 'must stop' list.

Popped in on a whim and it was a good decision. Been twice, had the wings and burger, it was amazing. Second time, I had the Philly steak. It was good, but it seemed like it was missing something, a little dry. I dipped it in ranch and it made it better. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Will be back. Came back meet the best waitress, she knew her stuff, she was very friendly. So when you go ask for Kristine

We stopped on our way to Savannah. We are always looking for a local restaurant and this one did not disappoint. The food was good, the service was great and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. We ate lunch at 12 on a Friday. The fried pickles were awesome. The burger was big and juicy. The Philly cheesesteak was ok but not the best. The cut of the French fries was perfect! I will definitely try this cut at home. Kinda like a steak fry but thinner and crunchy. We will definitely come back when we are coming through Cordele.

I rode 4 hours looking for a good meal and left impressed! Staff was very friendly, very nice place in a tiny town, got the Diablo Burger, the patty was huge and cooked perfectly. Served a thin style steak fry that I really liked. They were overcooked and hard like chips, the Diablo sauce had a good flavor but wasn't too hot so it won't make your mouth burn. I would definitely do that again.
