“Awesome food, great service. One of my favorite places.“

“They have excellent food and even more excellent service! I highly recommend eating here! 💯🖤“

“A great place to have hamburgers with chili. Spaghetti is great also. Service is super, fast, friendly. My Only complaint : their hours. Every time family wants to go to Stogies they are closed. We live 70 miles away and are generally in Joplin on weekends… But will not miss Stogey’s If possible, when on town.“

“Wonderful food and service! The gift shop is amazing!“

“Great food and service! Shout out to Alan for having great customer service me and my fiancée will be back definitely“

“Food and vibe was cool. Service was blah. Our server was slow, uncaring and also blah. The drinks came super slow which I found wierd because there may have been 10 people there with 2 servers, a bar tender and a lady that circled our table waiting for us to be done eating. The part which perplexed me was that our server brought our check before we asked and seemed perturbed we wanted another drink. Dont expect a normal dining experience here. Slow and boring is the experience I had.“

“I ordered the smores and pink velvet iced coffee. So yummy! I got the breakfast burrito. It was stuffed full. With bacon, sausage, tots, eggs, and cheese. So delicious! I got so full. Will be returning again soon. Can't wait to eat the waffles and try the waffle burger. Just grabbed the burrito today, so I could take it with me and eat it on the go. Was in a hurry, walked in ordered, and was in and out in less then 5 mins. Lady even opened the door for me to leave. Lots of space in what looks like a small building. Plenty of sitting outside as well.

Kid-friendliness: Delicious options. Kids will love to eat off this menu!“

“Huge portions and great home-cooked style meals. Our waitress was super attentive. Food came out very fast and was tasty. I like you can reorder at table as well as pay your check. My daughter and me had the Fried chicken tender salad and split the spinach dip appetizer. Great value good food“

“Great food with an enjoyable atmosphere for a morning out. The menu has something for everyone and the service was exceptional. Try their Million$$ Bacon, you won't be disappointed“

“The manager/GM sucks. But Really great food. 1st time we been there. Will go back. The bartender/manager was really nice. But taking shots at 1 30 pm on a Saturday.... Then was in the bathroom for over 40 minutes. Was still n there when we left.... My wife needed to use the restroom and the staff just said oh, just use the men's... Like this happens a lot... The main server guy disappeared as well .. Us and multiple tables were waiting n waiting. Crabby owners need to address this. Seems like a good person and up beat but at the end of the day drinking just past noon, working, and ppl leaving bc of poor service isn't a good recipe for a successful business. We will try it again bc we really did enjoy the food. Waitress was working her butt off. Hopefully management will next time as well. Otherwise John Taffer will be here in a bar rescue episode....“

“Been there a few times. Always good service and food. My only complaint is that they don't answer the phone so call in orders are not an option“

“Had an absolutely amazing Valentines dinner tonight! They went above and beyond, and the food was phenomenal. Shout out to Jayden our server as well. She was awesome as well as the rest of the staff! I was using a tooth pick to get steak out of my teeth in the bathroom, and one of the servers came in and noticed I was struggling and offered me floss and went and got some for me 🙌🏻😂 We had the prime rib along with the crab cakes and the chocolate strawberries! Prime rib was cooked PERFECTLY (MR) The espresso martini and aperol spritz were spot on for👌 This was our first time and it did not disappoint. We are already looking forward to our next visit! The atmosphere was impeccable for Valentine’s Day as well. 10 out of 5 stars ⭐️“

The food was done quickly, however wasnt great and thats not at all on the workers, I git the chicken sandwich. Im not sure what I was hoping for but it was NOT good, it was pressed chicken and had a weird after flavor, the fries were decent and my boyfriend got the melt, he liked it. I enjoyed his fries as well.“
