J P Kelly's Pub & Pkg Liquor

I just want to make a post about the horrible experience we just had at JP Kelly's. Our whole family went in there to drink after the farmers market. I brought my dog, as he is well behaved. We saw the same corgis at buzz bomb-everyine was chills after a few barks He was just fine at Buzz Bomb, where we came from. There were other dogs at Buzz bomb and of course some barking took place then everyone was friends. NO PROBLEMS!! K? Keep that in your back pocket while reading this. Our family decided to go to JPs. This couple with 2 corgis comes in,same people from buzz bomb, and obviously my dog is interested as is theirs. Their dog barked first*****, so mine barked after. My bernadoodle is a lot bigger than their corgi. So a bartender came up to us (group of 10-12) and said if my dog barked again, we needed to leave. I asked another bartender why because the other couples dog barked first and his response was "well they come in weekly" ahhhh sooo it's okay since they patron there often and we don't. Although, their dog started it everytime?? So I was saying goodbye to my family and ANOTHER bartender came up saying we had to leave and don't come back. TRUST!!! We won't!! And everyone in there can say agree Clyde was amazing!! The bartender tried fighting my brothers dad...

Cozy old bar. Very nice atmosphere and friendly bartenders.

Stopped here on our way home to Wisconsin for a Packer game. Felt so welcomed, fun atmosphere, and people brought all sorts of awesome food. An amazing experience! Thank you JP Kellys!

I'd give less than one star to the manager, to whom I've never met until I finish my beer, use the stall in the men's bathroom, and witness him doing something illegal off the urinal, makes a big deal out of nothing as I'm literally walking to the door to leave. Then after having a smoke across the street trying to calm down, tried to call the cops on me and waste both our time as if I'm the problem in the first place. To the child that is the manager and the guy who tends to shut the bar down when someone puts in $20 in the jute box every time seemed jealous every time a woman gave me any attention. Spent lots of money here and always tipped well and treated others kindly so this behavior wasn't even close to a patron who has paid for more than their beer at this point. The brick and foundation btw wasn't made by Kelly's. It was made by a different family that helped put the bar together in the first place. Their liquor and beer has more preservatives than the standard btw, makes some really nasty hangovers.

A favorite stop when visiting Springfield. We missed the bloody mary bar this round but you can never go wrong when there's Guinness on tap. Always a pleasant atmosphere and good service.

Parking: There's a trick to the parking. Go over the railroad tracks and take a left to park close to the entrance. The spots out front have always been off limits when we've gone

The ppl were great

An awesome place.

Wife got a solid mixed drink here. It seemed like a cool place.

Place is awesome period, nice locally owned watering hole. Great atmosphere.

My wife and I were in Springfield for a convention and decided to find a local pub after doing the typical touristy stuff. Came across J P Kelly's and felt at home immediately!Great bartenders that know how to pour a proper pint of Guinness and just a lot of fun.Forget the trendy joints and find your way to J P Kelly's! Trust me!

Male bearded bartender was super rude and refused to read IDs. He had some kind of reading problem, but he didn't have to be rude or weird about it. Just go to one of the other nearby bars
