Craft beer poured with pride, served with soul.
Four taps rotating weekly, a kitchen that takes comfort food seriously, and a bar top that feels like home. This is the spot Lincoln has been waiting for.
A place that actually feels like yours.
Rusty Rail Pub sits on Pulaski Street as a gathering place for people who want their beer poured right and their food made with care. No pretense, no flash — just solid craft beer, a kitchen that doesn't cut corners, and a crowd that treats each other like regulars.
We rotate our taps to keep things fresh and interesting, source local ingredients where we can, and keep the doors open for anyone who wants a good time without the noise. That's the whole idea.
Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Craft Beer on Tap
Four rotating taps featuring local Illinois brews, seasonal releases, and styles you won't find anywhere else in town. We change them weekly so there's always something new to try.
Kitchen Done Right
Burgers that actually taste like beef, sandwiches made with real bread, and comfort food that doesn't come from a freezer. We cook it fresh, every day.
A Real Gathering Spot
Whether it's a casual weekday drink, a group outing, or just a quiet evening at the bar — the atmosphere here is relaxed, friendly, and genuinely welcoming.
Step inside Rusty Rail.
Come by. We'll have a tap ready.
We're on Pulaski Street in Lincoln — easy to find, easy to park, and always open for a good conversation. Stop by during the week or swing through on the weekend.
