Our experience here was great! We had the Elote corn dogs and a cheese flatbread. Both excellent! The bar tender was basically on his own and the bar was busy. He was very pleasant and kind despite being extremely busy. Highly recommend Up Yonder!

Went in a little later and bar was 1/3 full and patrons there. Got promptly told in a snarky attitude “last call at 9:45”. And we asked about food nope. After we were there before and served food until 10. I’ve been to bad dive bars and this takes the cake.

Not the greatest ambience (bar was crowded and dining area was super kid friendly; loud throughout) but the service and food were great. Ordered a regular burger and impossible burger. Upgraded one of our sides to the onion rings but the kitchen gave us fries on accident. As a result our wonderful bartender/server comped our beverages. Definitely made our night coming here.

One of our favorite restaurants on our trip, the Kansas City burger was excellently prepared and had great flavor. It was bar service only, but that was fine with us and there were tables to sit at if you wanted. The food came in a reasonable amount of time and would highly recommend this place to others. There was also live music at the time making for a great atmosphere, even if it was a bit on the loud side.

Bartender looked at us 4 times, and continued to serve others who still had drink left in their cups. I’ve also never beer to an establishment where pull tabs come before drinks. We walked out. Went to the brewery up the road, had amazing service there, and left a great tip (per usual).

This is obviously a local hangout. We were here on a busy weekend and this place seemed to have almost all locals, which we liked.
The locals always know where the best places are.
The food was good , the help friendly and we felt at home here.

Awesome food and lots of indoor & outdoor space, clean with a cabin feel to it! 👌 Had a fantastic lunch there with a large group and will definitely be back next time we are in town! Food is fairly fast (under 10 minutes) and the food looks like the pictures online. Met the nice owner by chance when we were there and he seems very on top of things. I'd add a picture of the food but we ate it all. Sorry! 😆 🤣 😂

I had the elote mini corn dog appetizer, which was delicious and generously portioned at a fair price. The place is nice and the waitress was really nice.

Entered the building and was greeted by no one, given no instruction anywhere on whether to seat ourselves or wait to be seated, waited for 5 minutes for anyone working there to say anything to us, and had to walk out as it genuinely seemed we were being fully ignored. Legitimately felt like we walked into someone’s private home, not a business.

Nope, our experience here was a bad one. We walked in and seated ourselves in the bar area at the bar table. Then we sat there, and sat there, and sat there. After about 10 minutes with no drinks, no food, and not even a hello, we got up and walked out. I have no pictures of being there because we weren’t there long enough to care.

Sadly...the wife and I went to enjoy a band playing up there...( twin town )】】which outperformed our expectations m...however the ginger bearded bartender was an absolute disgrace towards my wife...ignoring her standing at the bar trying to order a non alcoholic beverage while doing absolutely nothing...needless to say we walked...seems these people working up in this town ate much more important than us little pesky customers and cannot be bothered to do there job...even one star would honestly be too much and they wonder why this establishment has changed hands so many times over the years. Coming from a local
..bring your own entertainment because the class of people working up there...is well below the standard...almost as if they come from the west coast...

Disappointed. I brought a group of 12 in for dinner the night before my wedding. Mind you, I did call 3 times prior and spoke with a bartender the last time I was in the area. The only staff on duty was a bartender and a cook.
