WORTH THE WAIT
RIP’S TAVERN
Since 1936

WELCOME TO RIP’S
SINCE 1936
Rip’s Tavern, and it’s famous fried chicken served on a paper plate, has been a staple in Ladd for over 80 years! Established by Silvio “Rip” Gualandri and his wife Emma, Rip’s has been a family affair throughout the years. People travel far and wide to wait in the line to try this old family recipe, and we’re glad you’re here to see why, after all these years, we’re still worth the drive.
