    I visited mid-August 2015. I'm a bit of a beer-and-wing nut, and I must suggest the Thai Peanut wings! They are excellent. They are $10 for about 10 (or a dozen?) wings, and VERY good. The sweet chili sauce on the side goes wonderful with them. Pizza Luce's also has very good peanut wings in case you are looking to compare. I was a bit turned off at the price of a tall Mich Light. It was something like $5.75. Wow, about a $1.50 more than I would expect (and pay) at other places. Kind of a turn off. But I'll be back for wings! (and water).

    I frequented this place a lot when It was Carbone's. The drink specials, food, pizza and staff were amazing and it was one of my favorite places to go. Visiting it for the first time since it became Poor Richards I was less than thrilled. The decor and everything is the same but the crowd is completely different. Before it looked like everyone was either on there way or coming back from playing golf, softball, or volleyball. The people I had become so used to was replaced with middle aged individuals and hipsters who really looked out of place. The drinks seemed to have less alcohol than anywhere I have ever been. The "Happy Hour" drink specials weren't very happy, it seemed like a pint was the same price on special as everywhere else at full price. Carbone's offered 2 for 1 on everything.. that deal is long gone. The food... I ordered a burger, the meat was good and cooked to my liking. However, the bun was overly dry and crumbled apart leaving me to eat my burger with a fork. I probably wont be coming back here

    Food/Drink: Got one of the burgers with jalapenos and it didn't disappoint. I was actually pleasantly surprised that both the burger and the toppings tasted pretty good. The bun could have used some more stability, but overall did it's job. Unfortunately, that was the high point. The fries were run of the mill and the fish and chips didn't even rate a "meh". I'll stick to the burgers and try the salad or buttermilk mashed potatoes (yep, believe that) as a side in the future. Ambiance: With a big restaurant comes great responsibility and this place is just too big. You enter and you're restaurant on the left and bar on the right. The bar is hopping, but it's even too big. Trying not to compare it to previous iterations, the whole place just doesn't seem cohesive; games, banquet room, back bar, pillars, front bar, patio, pull tabs, your dog/cat/goldfish in the corner... who knows? Service: Pretty good. They've got their rotations going well with the food being delivered quickly when ready. Drinks were ready and when we needed a minute to order she obliged happily. Overall: Here's the thing, if I want to get in and get a burger or do a happy hour without being crowded up this is the place I'll go. Added bonus that it's south of the river and can easily cover the noise of a family with plenty of space to stretch out and run. Safety is the burger, but then again who wants to be safe.... will come here to eat.

    2nd time I've tried Poor Richards. The waitress was attentive and we got our food quickly. I had the pot pie with mashed potatoes. Highly recommend! My friends had nachos and walleye wrap. Both enjoyed their meals. Only thing to complain about. My friend asked for hot water. The waiter brought the hot water in a plastic water cup, the ones you usually get your ice water in!?. Not a mug. My friend couldn't pick up the hot glass because there was obviously no handle. Silly mistakes, in an overall good experience. We will be back.

    Didn't get someone to stop at our table until we were there 15 min. Margarita was worse then Ground Round. Food sub par. Got the roast beef, barley any gravy. The signature fries only had salt on them so I guess you could call that seasoned. Nit going to come back.

    Ordered the bacon nutter burger which was pretty good. The place seemed empty but then again it was noon on a Saturday morning. Could definitely tell it was new, as they were still getting their bearings, but this did not affect the quality of service or food. I'll admit that I prefer the location in Bloomington, but this one still had good food for pretty good prices, depending on your choice. Not really a place for brunch, but would definitely recommend for dinner or late night goodness.

    The Thai wings were really good. One sandwhich was really good the other was ok, not much flavor. I think their biggest downfall is not updating the restaurant, it looks the same as the last 3 names that it has had. I think the food is really good but the atmosphere could be better.

    Can I do less stars? I have never been treated so horribly- I was harassed by a bar patron, and instead of being helped, the situation was allowed to escalate. It's a very good thing I was sober tonight. We will not be back.

    Expensive poor drinks, annoying loud DJ, mediocre food. Typical PR.. and girls smoking in the bathroom? Does anyone manage these places?

    We went to check out the new Poor Richards for late night drinks/apps and the place was dead for a Saturday night. The service was only okay and the food was nothing to rave about. We will most likely not be returning.

    $45 ($17 of which was 4 beers) + tip for two people. We had the fish fry and for $13 per it didn't seem like much of a "special" but I don't go to lenten Friday night fish fry things so what do I know? Maybe that's a reasonable price. .shrug. Server was fine and friendly. We were the only people in the restaurant side for an hour or so (we were there to watch a basketball game). Beer was fine. The fish, though. . . . there was an inordinate amount of batter coating those cod pieces. Seriously. I rarely fuss about too much batter on anything, but this was fierce and it was heavy. A resounding disappointment. Others have remarked about the decor and I concur. The entry looks shabby, the "outdoor carpet" (for lack of a better term) on the steps up from the parking lot is beat up. There is nothing inviting about the appearance but we wanted to try it because it's near home and because there was basketball on the Dish. My team got beat and now we've tried it. No burning desire to return. More's the pity, too. That location has been turning over restaurants for 40 years and I don't know why.
