A good place in the East End to grab lunch or a beer after work. Nothing too fancy but some good solid food selections. They also have one of the few patios in the area.

Not many people may know it but Rankin's is the most famous restaurant in Hamilton. How come? Because Mr Rankin rode a bull through the place when it was a china shop and made world wide news, including Ripleys Believe it or Not. That was many years ago.
The senior Mr Rankin (now deceased) was an innovator. When Ontario's liquor laws changed to allow American style bar and grills in Ontario Rankins became the first "Roadhouse" type restaurant in Hamilton (and perhaps Ontario). For years every bar in Hamilton had that throw- everything- up- on- the- wall look that Rankin innovated. Many sadly still do.
Rankins has moved past that and is now a beloved local restaurant.
OK, how 'bought the food? Sorry folks, I don't care what others have wrote here. The food is very uneven. Good one time, so-so the next. I ate here for years, so I'm entitled to my opinion big guys.
This place is friendly, clean, and has many loyal followers. But let's face it, it's in the east end of Hamilton.
Where else are you going to go?
Food was excellent, home fries were outstanding, not mushed, not burnt, but big pieces of potato. Peameal bacon and eggs were good as well.
Service was excellent and friendly. Very prompt. They were at our table with coffee almost immediately.
It was busy (pre Ticat game). Sat down quickly and ordered right away. The Burger was fantastic. Fully loaded with cheese, peameal bacon, and all the trimmings. Fries were really good too.
The food and service is always excellent and fast. A formidable selection of draft beers. Wing specials before and after Ticat games, and kids eat free on Wednesdays...what more could you want. We have been going there for over 15 years.
