“while people seem to be review bombing over support in the Isreal v Palestine conflict which seems to be the hottest button in the world right now, my review is about the food, service, staff and atmosphere. The service is top notch, drinks on the tables in less than a minute and food out in less than 10 minutes, mind you we sat at a bar table that the bartenders take care of on top of serving the entire bar rail, they still got drinks out lighting fast and checked on us several times. the burgers were HUGE and delicious, and the fries were perfect. The selection of beers on tap were great and uncommon to find at other bars. the atmosphere was great, loved the music and it was just loud enough to vibe to while still being able to have an audible conversation. The staff was very accommodating and the hostess had a table cleaned off for us immediately, she and the bar staff were great! They have an open kitchen and it looks like the cooks enjoy what they do and have fun with it, which is nice to see and not very common. We will definitely be back next time we're in town.“

“My family was driving through yesterday and wanted to check out something local to try out. This place exceeded our expectations. We walked in, immediately greeted, and the server gave a rundown of the menu being our first time. The food came our pretty quick and the food was incredible. The server brought out shake samples for us to decide which we wanted. All tasted great as well. Overall, terrific experience! We will definitely be back next time in town!“

“Its refreshing to come to Barringers Tavern. The service from Marcus is what I appreciate most. He is always welcoming, funny and considerate. That is the main reason I visit Barringers with my friends regularly.“

“I wish I could give this restaurant six stars! The food was delicious, the service was outstanding, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations.

I work in the activities department at a retirement community, and once a month, our long-term-care residents choose a restaurant for a lunch outing. Flashbacks was their choice for September, and to our surprise, 17 residents wanted to attend! Including staff, we had a group of approximately 25 people.

I called about 10 minutes before opening to let the restaurant know that our large group was on its way. The young woman who answered was very professional and kindly explained that she would be the only server working that shift. I assured her that we understood and would be patient.

When we arrived, Samantha had already arranged enough space for everyone, including many residents who use wheelchairs. She helped ensure that each person was seated promptly as we unloaded the bus, and she stayed on top of drink orders as everyone arrived.

Knowing that Samantha was working alone, our team stepped in to assist wherever we could. We may not be professional servers, but we genuinely enjoy making life easier for others. Samantha was wonderful about allowing us to help her with taking orders and delivering meals. She kept a smile on her face throughout what could easily have been an overwhelming situation. She kept drinks filled, organized every order, and arranged the meals so we could hand them to the correct residents. Because each resident and staff member had a separate ticket, she also carefully verified every order before sending it to the kitchen.

I am equally grateful to the kitchen staff. Although they were working behind the scenes, they consistently prepared hot, delicious food despite receiving so many separate orders at once. If our large group overwhelmed anyone, they never showed it.

Every resident and staff member left with a full stomach and a smile. Samantha was truly a blessing, and the entire team made our residents feel welcomed and cared for.

Thank you, Flashbacks, for providing such a wonderful experience! You are an amazing restaurant, and I cannot wait to return on my own for a relaxing and enjoyable meal.“

“The food was good but my boyfriends tea was cross contaminated with fruit from another customers drink the concern was brushed off as if it was no big deal. So if you have any allergies pay attention to your drinks or food.“

“Literally the best breakfast food ever!!! Never disappointed. Best part of having to make trips to Riley is eating here.“

Thank you Kyas“

“Nice atmosphere staff very friendly. Cool place to chill“

“I have been coming to this DQ all summer long and I have to say they really take good care of me each and every time! I am extremely glad I gave them a try cause they never let me down! Service is always good and everyone is extremely nice and helpful. Thank you guys for all you do!“

“Hands down the best food in Johnson County with the best staff and more than affordable prices. We are regulars every weekend.“

“That was an amazing burger.“

“This is the anchor restaurant at the Holiday Inn by Airport at Indianapolis. I stayed at the hotel and purchase the breakfast ahead of time. On site, there is a sign says “buffet breakfast $14.99/person on spot or $10/person when purchased ahead of time”. The food selection is limited and no drink, you have to ask the server to bring whatever drinks you wanted. It is decent place for breakfast but it is definitely not a fancy place.“

“Jesse and Deann Are the absolute best.“

“Great food. Enjoyed the cucumbers.“

“I was greeted by Ariana and she took my order and greeted me as I came in the restaurant. The general manager greeted us as well and presented his card as a personal reference .During service I wasn't all the way satisfied with my burger. Again Ariana was there to assist and replaced my burger to my liking. This was a great experience and I felt very welcome and appreciated. Due to the issue occurring unfortunately I couldn't give you a perfect score.“

“Im obsessed with the strawberry shortcake its sooo good!“

“good stuff! they definitely feed you! portions are big!“

“I would like to say on September 3rd at about 8:14 a.m. I forgot my debit card at home when I got to the drive thru window I let the young lady know that I would be right back that I forgot my card she said no she was paying for it she was paying it forward she was a young black lady and she insisted she was paying it forward that was awesome they are still nice young people out there would love to give her a shout out and hope that Hardees with no but they do have employees that are wonderful thank you very much you did not have to do that that was awesome“

“Very friendly great food“
