My only complaint is the service was too fast! I couldn't believe how quickly my food was out to me, and it was an enjoyable southwest chicken salad. The beer on tap and bartender serving them were both excellent! Nice little spot in a cool location, and I highly recommend checking it out if you're visiting Seymour.

Rails is a neat, small railroad themed pub and brewery in the historical city of Seymour Indiana, just off of US 50. The Cod dinner that I ordered tonight was excellent! The two filets of fish were a decent size with great taste and the pricing is reasonable. The service staff was friendly, tentative and caring. And all of the railroad decals were cool! It is a nice little “train” stop eatery in Southern Indiana! I recommend this place to others and I will definitely be back!

The tenderloin was very good and large! Fries were tasty. Husband had the 50/50 which is half burger/half bacon! Being a bacon nut, he really enjoyed it. The grandson had the chicken tenders. There were 3 really large pieces. There was more there than what you would get from a full chicken breast. He loved them and almost cleaned his plate. He liked the fries and mac and cheese also, as his meal came with 2 sides. The quality and quantity of the food was WELL worth the price. This was our first time here as we were passing through town. Would definitely stop again if we get back in the area. The service was spot on as well.

10/10 would recommend!!! This is one of the best local joints we’ve ever found! Cassie our waitress was absolutely amazing! She recommended the Salmon. As a big seafood guy I decided to try it. 100% was not disappointed! My wife got the Outlaw burger and said it was amazing. We will absolutely be back. Thankful for places like this! Definitely try it if you haven’t already. We grabbed some cheesecake to-go! We can’t wait to try it.

My son and I went there on Monday, July 28 at about 3:00 pm. Everything was excellent, from the service to the food. Highly recommend the grilled chicken breast topped with the mushroom, onions, peppers, and cheese. Even the sweet tea was excellent! My son had the chicken with the garlic red potatoes and mac and cheese. I had chicken with the garlic red potatoes and asparagus. I will go back again for sure!

The salmon and sweet potato waffle fries with Carmel and mixed veggies is delicious. My wife loves the boom boom shrimp. The Campfire Cheesecake was so good. 4 of us split it!

This place was recommended by a teacher friend. Iam a self confessed fish snob as i have had chef quality pacific salmon in Seattle, fresh lake perch, and can cook deep fried Walleye that would make anyone want to stuff themselves it so good. The waitress didn’t know where the salmon was from and said it was frozen so i was prepared to be disappointed. Instead I was pleasantly surprised and has to be some of the best Atlantic Salmon i’ve ever had. I ate all of it! If your looking for a locally owned restaurant with delicious salmon i would recommend them
