The Ale House 1890 in Lancaster, Ohio is a restaurant featuring food items that are made-from-scratch with locally bought produce. The atmosphere features rustic, exposed brick walls, a tin roof ceiling above the bar and wooden beams above the seating area, wooden tables and an old saloon like presence when you sit at the bar.

My brother and I decided to dine in for lunch one day, where my brother ordered their 7 oz burger served with fries. Shhh! This burger actually turned out to be a secret menu item that you can’t order off the lunch menu.

I ordered their BLT, which is served on Texas toast and can even be topped with egg for an additional cost.

Hot and fresh can’t even begin to describe the meal that we had. The burger, served medium rare, was juicy, delicious. In trying some of his meal, I about swapped meals – but the BLT was just as insanely good all on its own, it might even be my new favorite place to order a BLT. The lettuce and tomato had the quality of being picked right of the garden, the bacon cooked to the perfect amount of crispiness.
Their fries were equally amazing, the perfect crispiness with the right amount of saltiness. When you can eat fries without having to dip them in ketchup, I consider that a huge plus.

Our waitress was extremely friendly, she checked up on us every so often and was helpful when it came to ordering from them for the first time, as she gave us input on the different meals they had to offer.

Between the atmosphere, the friendly staff and the amazing food – the Ale House 1890 is definitely a place I recommend checking out.
