Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery

It’s a shame where the Kilt has ended up.
The good: it’s one of the only tilted kilts left.
The ok: the beer selection is OK. Lots to choose from. Not crowded on a Sat. Night. (However, there may be a reason for that). Lots of tvs
The bad: Unfortunately, it’s dated. I just get that unclean feeling. The service was actually terrible. Waitress seemed like it was a chore to wait on us. The food was your standard greasy bar food.
I guess I see why most of these are going out of business.

Traveled to Fort Wayne for a concert and hadn’t been to Tilted Kilt so decided to stop for dinner. We were seated close to 6pm on a Friday evening and there was barely anyone there. Our waitress was attentive and quick, and handled getting our drinks and food ordered in a timely manner.
I ordered the chicken tenders with garlic Parmesan fries and the boyfriend had the full rack of ribs with onion rings. My order was brought out wrong (which turned out to be someone else’s order), but the boyfriend’s order was right. We had extra food and was told not to worry about it because they had a new food runner.
Food was delicious and served fresh. Leftovers were amazing. Will definitely return to Tiled Kilt in the future.

Fun place!!!

A co-​worker and I were out and about when he wanted to stop for lunch… Tilted Kilt was his choice…
We walked in to find the hostess and another person (dressed like a dishwasher comparatively speaking) on their phones with ear buds in, behind the counter… My co-​worker informed them that we would be sitting at the bar… They couldn’t have cared less. No reaction, barely eye contact.
We sit down and wait for the scantily clad tattooed waitress to acknowledge us… It WAS busy with two other guys across the bar from us and a newly sat family in the dining room… She takes our drink order in a great «you’re bothering me» sort of way and vanished… As we look over the menu, I realize nothing looks appealing… Burgers… And one or two «Irish» options. I settle on «street tacos» and wait for her return.
In the mean time, two elderly gentlemen sit down two seats from us and order beers… Starting that d-​bag conversation only close friends who share creepy fantasies can have…
Another single (by himself, no idea his marital status) elderly gentleman sits on the other side of us and orders a «hiney». Which she was happy to serve him.
We finally placed our order and waited 20+ minutes for our food to arrive… Noticing more and more elderly men and the occasional family get seated in the dining room. (No IDEA why you would want a young child to be here, let alone your wife AND kid) The single man just stared creepily the entire time we were there… The other two kept on with their conversation that makes you ashamed to say your a man.
The food finally arrives and mine is cold. Not a little… But COLD. When she finally came back to ask if we were ok, I Simply asked «is this supposed to be served cold?» She said she would fix it and off she went… My co worker was finished with his food when mine returned… Somehow I lost the right to have salsa with the chips provided for sending it back. …The price I pay I guess. It was warmed up all right. The tortillas are rock hard and the lettuce, tomatoes and lime wedge are hot as well… Chef Mic (rowave) has come to the rescue! I take a bite not noticing Chef Mic’s work here… Have you ever had microwaved chicken? It’s like a bad science experiment where jelly bellys mate with three day old KFC.
I decided «check please» was my best option.
The server didn’t noticed that I had taken A bite out of my food… Not numerous, but a letter amount of bites. She asked if we wanted separate bills and I said one would be fine… When i informed her that my food was «horrible» and that they just threw it in the microwave, she went straight into «this is going to affect my tip mode» and explained that she had nothing to do with it… She said that she would talk to a manager and «see what she could do about my bill» … When she set the bill down and told me how she didn’t charge me for the lunch I didn’t have, I paid and stood up. Waited for any sign of the manager that made the call… Nothing.
So in the end… I went to Tilted Kilt to pay for my co-​workers meal, watch him eat, listen to old men say some messed up stuff about girls their granddaughters age, watch a creeper stare the clothing off of someone ¼ his age and leave hungry.
Sound like your kind of place?

This is hard. The pub food is pretty good. Had the fish and chips this time and the pub pretzels. Dinner came out about 5 minutes after appetizer so we were flooded with food. We reached over the bar for our own appetizer plates. I reached over the bar for malt vinegar, and I went to a table to get ketchup and hot sauce. We used bar napkins for the appetizer. When the bartender, Torey, dropped out food off, we couldn’t reach the bucket of silverware behind the bar, so we had to «bother» her to get us napkins and silverware. We’ve been here before. The food is decent. Not too over priced. Menu has streamlined. Wings are good. Evidently, sitting at the bar is a hindrance to bartenders here. We had the same problem with another bartender on another visit at this location. They flirt with the regulars, single men, and whoever, that’s fine, but a little bit of acknowledgment and service would be nice. The personalities of the bartenders are about the same as a potato. Just make it a McDonald’s food counter and let me order, it’d be better service. I’ve been to other locations several times and the service is spot on. Not here. I should probably tip myself, I did most of the work.

This is a nice place to take the wife and kids and secretly look at nice ladies when your wife is checking out the menu. It’s also a nice place to take your boss so you can show him that you’re a square Joe who enjoys booze drinks, hum-​drum food, and the presence of nice ladies. And that might lead to a promotion or something. Thumbs up!

Was in town attending a seminar. It was the only place nearby (25 minutes from Aurora) holding the Mayweather fight. The food was ok and the waitresses didn’t seem like they wanted to be there.
The menu has many options for a mostly bar crowd, which makes sense because it is a sports bar.

I wouldn’t recommend this place as a favorite bar or local eatery.
After being ignored at the bar for a good while, the single tender shouted over that they’d be right with me. When the bartender finally came over and started to take my order, they stopped mid-​greet and decided ringing in a food order was more important and said they would be right back. Instead of coming right back, they walked over and greeted the two guys next to me and started taking their order (they got to the bar after after me). Hello? I ended up walking away. After sitting at a table for a while without being approached, I was about ready to give up, but I opted to go up to the host and ask for a server.
After finally getting service, I waited another 15 mins to receive my drink and it wasn’t even brought out by my server. All in all, it took about 45mins to get a drink. Our server was friendly and attentive post-​drink order though, which made it difficult to stay mad. I’m glad we had the server we did, because all of the other ones were sitting at tables flirting instead of working… Unless they’re supposed to do that.
In the way of food, I ordered a pizza. The taste was meh and I felt it was pretty pricey considering it was fairly small & the flatbread didn’t have much to it.
At the end of the night when I got my bill I noticed I had been given a different beer than I ordered which costed more. It was the same style of ale so I didn’t notice when I was drinking it. Apparently, they were out of the beer I ordered and the beer they gave me was the closest thing. The price difference wasn’t that great, but I feel like it shouldn’t have been assumed that I would be fine with the switch.

Extremely meh place. Food had large portions, but was very greasy. Don’t come here unless you’re looking for a sports bar feel and waitresses to stare at.

We didn’t realize that they were having the MMA fights tonight and were seated at 7:31pm and told at 8:00pm we’d have to pay $ 5 per person at our table. When we said we’d just leave the waitress said she’d not charge us if we didn’t hang out much past 8:20pm. We ordered and she then came back and apologized and said she found out they weren’t charging until 10pm. The food was good my burger was hot throughout and my son dove into his fries immediately. The service was good, refills came quick and our waitress was attentive. We’ve ate at the Tilted Kilt in Indy as well and enjoy both restaurants.

Went during lunch on a Monday. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Wait staff was very friendly and fast. Good was pretty good for the price. 1^st time coming and will be coming back when I’m in town.

Quality has gone down hill since they opened. I went there with my wife for St. Patrick’s day and didn’t enjoy the experience. They ran out of ginger ale, ran out of cabbage, ran out of wait staff. It was noisy and busy, but they didn’t put on extra staff for the holiday as far as I could tell. The waitress didn’t know what sodas were caffiene free. Next year we go to McCallisters!

Pros:
— Friendly staff in different states of undress. They gave beads to my 3-​year-​old son. Wife was not thrilled about their attire.
— The atmosphere was inviting and with over-​the-​top Irish stereotypes.
— Tons of flat screen TVs and a couple projectors.
— Large portions with some descent selections.
Cons:
— No kids menu. Expect to pay adult prices for kid portions (ie. 2.50+tax for a small glass of milk)
— Server did not take empty plates from table. We ended up putting them on the table next to us.
— We asked for food to be boxed and they just handed us boxes instead of boxing for us.
— The chili was horrible. It was worse than chili in a can.
— For their Irish stew, it came with hydrated mashed potatoes. That is an atrocity for an Irish pub and voids it of any Irish status.
— Beer selection was weak for being considered an Irish pub. They have Guinness, Smithwicks, and sad other beers that Americans drink.
We went here on a whim and Google rated it ²⁰⁄₃₀ which was better than Bob Evans or Smoky Bones next door to it. I am of Irish heritage and I would not go back. If I wanted to go to a non-​kid friendly place that was Irish, I would go 8 minutes downtown to JK Odonells. If you are looking for big portions of semi-​descent pub food and are afraid of craft beers, this place works for you. If you just want to watch the big game or PPV fight with half naked servers, this place is for you. If you want great food and service, look elsewhere.

The service was poor. The waitresses were all sitting at the bar looking bored when they should be getting me a refill for my drink. We had two different burgers and noted that all you could taste was bun and the deep fried pile of onions they dump all over them. I’ll go some place different next time!

Service is piss poor at best. The food, used to be good when it opened, now they have gone down hill. If you just want to stare at tits and ass… Save your money and go to a strip club. Otherwise I would skip this place. Clearly management doesn’t care either. I give it 2 stars mainly because there are always at least a couple of waitress that are good and it shows, otherwise the rest of them aren’t worth the time.

Went to the tilted kilt to watch the Colts game drink some beers and have a good good time. we get there are bombarded and told there’s room at the bar, we get to the bar there are no seats so we have to find our own table, it’s not even busy so as we sit down it takes 10 minutes for someone to come up to us. once someone does we order our drinks and we don’t receive them for another 10 minutes at a time we finally get food and drinks the food was poor the waitress look like she was miserable, the beers were flat. I would only come back for the atmosphere.
P. S. Those waitresses … WOOF

Soooo… I hope those pictures showing are for every Tilted Kilt because that is NOT what the girls here look like! If your establishment is known for flaunting barely-​dressed girls, you better be sure to live up to the advertisement of the hot girls on the website and posters.
Besides the girls who were actually decent, and at the very least, nice, the place isn’t bad, it’s just not memorable. It is a typical chain restaurant, like an Applebee’s Gone Wild.
So really, it’s not terrible, but it’s not good enough to warrant another visit out of me, either.

Wow! This place is much better than I remembered! The bar is full of TV’s with miscellaneous sports on. There are many young ladies as servers walking around with kilts on. Cute. They even did a dance ½ through dinner. This reminded me of a nightclub. The food was decent. I had the twice fried chicken with fries. The chicken was very good; and very moist. The prices here are cheap too. I had two brews and a full dinner for less than $ 25.

Putting aside the fact that the girls who work here are half dressed this is a great place to watch sports. There are TVs everywhere, and the food is decent. The service is good and the bartenders are extremely friendly. If I was looking for somewhere to watch sports while in IN again I would probably stop in

So let’s put it this way, if Tilted Kilt was a dancer, it’d have two left feet.
Pros:
+ Honestly, for bar food. Surprisingly tasty. Nothing that’s the best ever, but it’s some amazingly good stuff!
+ Rather good draft selection for a generic place. Really it was mostly good because of the size of the selection, not the quality, but there is Fat Tire, Leinenkugals, Goose Island and many more.
+ Beer tubes!
+ Lots of TVs
+ Pool table
+ Happy atmosphere and smiling excitable employees in various states of undress.
Cons:
— Service, or complete lack there of. Without so much as an acknowledgment I sat at the bar for 15 minutes before being asked if I’d like a drink. Nearly left.
— Food delivery, can I have a napkin and silverware to go with my meal, and maybe the forgotten dipping sauce that goes with it? I don’t recall saying bring the dipping sauce after I finish eating either, but nice shot.
— 15 minutes later, I now no longer have a drink, no one has come by to clear the plate or ask if I’d like anything. It took an act of god to settle the tab.
I rarely if ever tip poorly for service, especially if a place is busy, but if you have time to tell jokes on the other side of the bar, you have time to not ignore other customers. It’s really frustrating too, because I wanted to like the Tilted Kilt, and would have probably gone back to have a quick bite, but the service was flat out atrocious.
