Watermelon Sugar High
Margherita

“The hot chocolate here is my absolute favorite! I tried it after a friend's suggestion and I've been back multiple times because once I get a craving, it's all I can think about. I like mine plain, but they have add-ons like peppermint and whipped cream to really make it festive. It's also such a beautiful space to relax and spend time in with a great staff. We're so lucky to have this gem in Downtown Springfield!“

“Hands down best bar in Springfield. Amazing service. All of the bar tenders are expedient. They're great at serving large crowds. And since we're on the topic of crowds, best damn crowd of people in all of the 217. Most welcoming and fun loving people I've ever been around. Great vibes.Parking: Parking our front on the street and multiple lots next to and across the street. Safe to cross the street as well. If you don't feel comfortable, the bouncers will escort you as well. Safety is paramount.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch. We both started with stuffed cabbage soup, something we'd never heard of no less had. Ir was unique and delicious. My wife had the fried green tomatoes, and I had corned beef and cabbage with a side salad. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. The soup was especially good on a cold and wet afternoon. We had an excellent server; he was really attentive and efficient. Next time I'll try the shepherd's pie.“

Hand of Fate Brewing Double Bean Dream

“So we came from Alabama for a wedding and found Floyd’s and they were one of the few places open due to the weather…and I’m so glad we did! Emily was our bartender and she was the best ever and we made sure to go there everyday we were there for her and the great atmosphere! She made us feel so welcomed and the only regret we had was that we couldn’t make it to see her on our final night there after the wedding! So Emily if you’re seeing this…it’s your friends from Bama and we’re sorry we didn’t get a chance to come back Saturday night and I hope you enjoyed the Hogwarts as much as I did :) Will probably make another trip to Springfield just to come hangout at Floyd’s and hangout with Emily again!“

Cottage Inn Bar • $
927 N MacArthur Blvd, Springfield

“Great place, especially if you throw darts. Great crowd, Brice the bartender is awesome but be sure to speak slow and very loud he is hard of hearing. His left ear was damaged from a platypus attack. A good story if he is willing to tell it, he didn't fair well in the fight. Also walks with a limp and mouth breathes from a unrelated pet racoon incident, not as good of a story.“

A place with “regulars” who are the most kind and welcoming people. I’ve been going here 9 years and NOT ONCE have I had a bad time. I recommend this place to all my friends. Logan, Kevin, Armi, Alisha, Kadi, Demi, Astrid and Tod are some of the beautiful souls you’ll be happy to meet! Go there and enjoy!“

“A dive bar that makes you feel right at home. Heather the bartender (and owner) is attentive, and also funny as "beep"! They sell snacks, but no food. They do have potlucks every once in a while though. They did a Happy "Noon" Year party on the 31st, I unfortunately didn't arrive until later that afternoon, but still had a blast. Several dartboards, and a shuffleboard table are in the back room of the establishment (out one door, into another. Great time overall. Forgot to mention about the two cats that roam freely around the bar“
