"I was born and raised in Rupert. I worked at this restaurant when I was in high school. I am retired and do a lot of traveling and therefore eat out frequently. I now live outside of Omaha Nebraska. I still have family and friends here and visit 1-2 times a year. I have to say the 1/2 BLT was very good. The salad was somewhat wilted but the homemade blue cheese dressing was also good. There was 4 of us and they had finger steaks and onion rings which were also good. This whole review was based on our server BILLIE. I wanted a 1/2 sandwich which was not available in a 1/2. Okay, when I asked what kind of soup they had we don 't have soup today . I then went to use the restroom and noticed other customers eating soup inside the restaurant. When I returned to the patio area she was serving another customer who arrived 45 mins after us, soup. I also noticed that she kept telling customers who attempted to sit and order food that they closed at two and that the kitchen was closing down. It was only 12:30. They didn 't close till two. She offered drinks but they left. Then other people would come and she waited on them and served them food. She was selective in who she served and what food she would serve them. Wow! Your restaurant must be doing so well that you can turn paying customers away. Maybe she is an owner and can afford to do this. Or maybe you are like a lot of other food service that can 't hire enough or have enough good people to represent your business. My husband went in and saw what I saw and confronted her regarding the non-existent soup. She lied, and said they ran out. She served soup to another customer on the patio that arrived after us. My soup must have been too heavy. There was also two smokers at our table that she approached and told them as long as they were serving food that they could not smoke. I can appreciate this but she failed to do the same thing to another table with smokers. I noticed she was the only waitress. One waitress is all you will need after she destroys your business with her behaviors. Needless to say, her $20.00 tip (30 percent) decreased to 7 percent. We were not sure but feel she was punishing our table for occupying it too long. We were visiting with friends and family. I have to say we will probably not use your establishment again."

Service was fine but the food was bad. The $17 chicken fried chicken was obviously heated up from a frozen package. If you're considering trying this place do yourself a favor and buy a hungry man dinner, it's the exact same thing. View menu

I absolutely love The Drift! I've been there for several Christmas celebrations, and the staff is fantastic! They serve the best prime rib I've ever had. My husband recently had his birthday party there, and the service was exceptional—truly top-notch! The food is delicious, and everyone is always so friendly. I highly recommend it!

We showed up at this stately but older building that houses the hotel rooms (and restaurant, and bar), and with a some trepidation I entered the lounge where hotel accommodations are handled. The bartender handed me the keys for the room, which was up the stairs to the second floor. I wasn't sure what to expect in such an older building, but we entered a room which had been completely renovated and updated. The bed was super comfortable, the bathroom was big enough for both of us. The air conditioning was so quiet we didn't think it was on. Outside the room was a vestibule where coffee can be made (pod coffee), food could be warmed up in the Half-pint microwave, or whatever. A few steps down...
