I drove 2 hours from home to eat here. It did NOT disappoint. The seabass over pasta was mouthwatering! The staff were so welcoming and kind.I was so impressed with the plant shop they have next door too.Be sure to bring extra money. You are going to want to buy plants or knick knacks.Totally worth the drive for a fun day!

In town for a family visit, we knew Brian had opened his restaurant “Beast & Barrel” so we had to try it…. Well their not lying when they say the Brussel sprouts are good, there great!! It happened to be Saint Patrick’s day so I opted for the Shepards Pie, it was tasty just like I’ve gotten at true Irish Pub in NYC. My mom had the beef tips and she said they were delicious and more than she could eat. Our thanks to Brian and the wonderful staff at the Beast & Barrel, you made a lovely evening for my family!Thank You.

Great food and a wonderful atmosphere. A nice addition to Joplin. Plus, the plant shop next door is too cute! I love the free clippings I got to take and all the eclectic finds. I will definitely be back. Sorry there is no picture of my burger covered in blue cheese and bacon or my brussel sprouts. They were gone before I thought to take a picture.

I love local places like this! The menu is unique and they are always making special limited time dishes that are worth stopping in to try. Very helpful staff and a very cool bartender! I wasn't sure which beer I wanted and he brought out a few different bottles for me to look at to help make my decision, then made some awesome mixed drinks with his own flare, for my wife. That's above and beyond service to me and helped make our night more memorable. The bergers and chicken sandwiches are so good! Their fresh fries are delicious! Try the Beast Sauce!

Such a fantastic lunch spot. They had daily specials and make fresh sodas! Ask your server and they can make what you want. I had a refreshing raspberry soda. Things can be made gluten free if asked.The PBJammin burger was delicious and the shoestring fries were fresh and crispy. I would definitely come back next time I'm in town!

Wonderful ambiance and delicious food and cocktails. I had the surf and turf ravioli along with an apple pie a la mode drink and a cranberry coconut margarita.

I've been here twice now and everytime has been wonderful. I love that the bartender acknowledges you when you come in and will even seat you (if he's not busy). The waitresses have all been pleasant, sweet and come and check on you throughout. The drinks are super classy and there is a good selection. The food has all been great too. Had the steak, the tempura rice shrimp (no longer available) and their burgers. My #1 place to go to for a nice classy dinner.

Fun and quirky spot with a chill vibes, friendly service and elevated pub food. Interesting house cocktails round out the experience. You have to get the Beady Burger-salami, bacon, beset sauce, pickle, and a fried egg to name just a few of the condiments on this burger. The hand cut skinny fries are fab. Ask for the garlic aioli for dipping! Let very full and satisfied.

My husband took me out for a birthday dinner tonight. I wanted to try some place different. I saw the menu online and knew we would like to try some of the items. We were welcomed warmly by Eric. We sat at the bar. He was great. The atmosphere was awesome. And, the food was phenomenal. You won't go away hungry, for sure. We will definitely come back.

LOVED this place. Such a gem in Joplin. The drinks are amazing and so is the food. Their staff is so kind and gives amazing service. It makes me feel like I’m a city for just a bit. Will be back!

The food here was delicious. We went for my mom's birthday and got beer, food, and dessert. The waitress we had admitted that she knew nothing about the beer. We weren't as happy with the beer, my brother was looking for a dark beer and the beer was definitely a light beer and the glass was only about half full. We got salmon, beef tips, chicken sandwich, and fettuccine and all of our entrees were very yummy. The key lime pie wasn't great and they had a strawberry drizzle which didn't compliment the key lime very well in my opinion; I'd have preferred the normal whipped topping with a wedge of lime. The bread pudding however was very good. The service was a little slower but we were informed that they had someone walk out during shift. Overall we were very impressed and my dad said they're on the list of places we'll eat in Joplin.

One of our favorite little get away spots in Joplin. We come for the cocktails and usually stay for dinner. It's a beautiful space with a laid back vibe. Wonderful addition to the downtown dining options.

So, I have noticed that this place is a hit and miss. I've had a really great meal here, but yesterday that just wasn't the case. I got the pasta Parmigiano and it was less than basic. My son's fettuccine was super dry, and the noodles were hard.

This place makes my mouth and heart happy! The food is so fresh and clean. I felt like I was eating with family. Great service, clean atmosphere, great people. Go, eat, laugh, share moments with your loved ones. You will be so glad you did!
