18 Best Bar & Grill near Osage Beach

“Chrissy was so hospitable and took care of our family! Pizza was tasty would definitely recommend“

“Just wanted to say “thank you” to Zach, the wonderful customer service man at HyVee. My daughter ran out of diapers while the house was on quarantine and he went out of his way to make sure we where able to get them. You are appreciated!!!!“

“This place is huge! Boat parking and car parking. Gas station for your watercraft as well (check hours closed on Mondays). They have a main area with tons of outdoor seating and a pool. They also have some indoor seating. Then they have next door a 5 tier pool with a large stage for live music (check the website for music schedule, age restriction hours, and days of operation). We sat at the main area outside. There are lots of flies so turn on the fans or ask for the little fly spinners. We ordered the grouper finger appetizer which was crusted with corn flakes and super good, and it came with a raspberry tarter sauce which was great. We also got the jalapeno popper appetizer (you order per popper), and it is gigantic and absolutely stuffed with cream cheese and crab, great breading as well, it also came with a raspberry sauce which paired great, and ranch. These will fill you up so we also shared a seafood pasta. It comes with a deep fried dinner roll (so good), and a side salad. The pasta was super creamy and had good flavor. We also shared the grouper sandwich (which you can get fried, blackened or grilled), we got ours blackened and we chose fried green beans as our side from the recommendation of our server. The sandwich was great and came with regular tarter sauce, the fish was cooked perfect and had great flavor. The only thing was maybe it was a thinner or smaller piece of fish so the bread to fish ratio wasn't quite there, but the taste was good. The green beans came with ranch to dip and the batter was similar to like a fried pickle batter. They have a daily special and for Monday it is a dollar off Pain in the ass drinks (normally $9, so $8 on special). They are served blended/frozen in a small cup. It was delicious and refreshing, but just be aware of the small drink size for that. Overall we enjoyed our time here and definitely want to come back for swimming or live music for some more atmosphere in the future.“

“Went there tonight with my wife and three friends. Food was very good, hot with large portions. Very nice place. Will be back, too many food options to choose from.“

“They had one of the best DJs we've ever experienced! It was a great time!“

“We love coming in for lunch! The French onion grilled cheese is incredibly delicious! I also highly recommend the pink margarita! Bryan is the best GM/server at the lake... and may I say, he's looking very svelte these days (not that he told me to say that! lol)!“

“On 9/12/2025 my husband and I were having dinner at Papa Chubbys. We were there on our motorcycle as it is Bikefest weekend at the lake. My husband had a medical emergency as we were eating. There was not a person that was working there that did not jump in to help us. Our waitress was amazing. The girls that came from behind the bar to call 911, and help us, were amazing. The gentleman that brought candy and a cupcake to help get his blood sugar up, was amazing. The people sitting at the table next to us, I am not sure what I would have done without their help in that moment. They kept me calm, they helped me take care of him. Everything. This place, the staff, the people are absolutely top notch. We will be spending more time and money going forward at Papa Chubbys. Thank all of you for everything.“

“DJ Todd is BEYOND AMAZING!!!!! Nicest DJ I have ever met, incredibly funny and played all the songs I requested. 100/10 recommend him, YOUR THE BEST TODD!!!!!!!“

“Well we went to another restaurant near Casablanca-we had our dog and was told they no longer accept pets. So as we were leaving someone eating there told us to go to Casablanca they have great pizza and you can take your dog. Well the restaurant that refused us did us the biggest favor. Casablanca has the BEST margarita, pizza bruschetta and chicken wings. And the service was superior-Chad thank you so much, we will definitely be back.“

“They had outdoor seating near the swimming pool for the inn. The view was spectacular. Kenzie was an excellent server. She was knowledgeable about the daily special and helped guide us to the perfect bottle of wine. We enjoyed a meat and cheese board. Those marinated olives were wonderful.“

“Like the song says “I love this bar” delicious food cold beer. Service is great, never disappoints“

“Just moved here a month ago, and already this bar reminds me of home! Fantastic atmosphere for Hawkeye games! If you love the Hawkeyes or Chiefs football, this is the place for you. The owners are absolutely welcoming and the staff is great! Not to mention their karaoke nights are so welcoming and friendly!“

“Great time! Our server was awesome, so friendly, accommodating, and genuinely trying to help us enjoy our evening. We watched the sunset and listened to a band. The mojitos were delicious! Will be a regular stop!“

“Great atmosphere with good food and super owners. Stop and check it out when you are in the area.“

“First, I want to say we are from WI. We have been visiting the Ozarks since the 3rd of July. On July 4th, I rolled my ankle severely after leaving a boat rental place. We have 4 children. We had planned to do a nice dinner out but with my ankle we had to go back to where were staying. All I could think about in the wake of my pain is what my children were going to eat for dinner. The Office Neighborhood Pub popped up. We ordered food for everyone. My husband went to get our food, when leaving the restaurant our vehicle battery wouldn't work. Not only did the owner, Tony, help my husband jump our vehicle but he gave him a ride back to our place so he could feed us. The food was delicious. We got buffalo mac n cheese (10/10), the office cubano (9/10), the chicken Parm (10/10), the office steak sandy (10/10) and kids quesadilla. All wonderful. We can't thank the owner enough for the hospitality we received.“

“Went to Docknockers because it was right down the road from our air b&b. We ordered a bucket of crab legs-potatoe skins-buffalo shrimp.
The crab legs were amazing! (4clusters)
Bar service was excellent! Believe the hype-Chris is the best! Great bartender and awesome to talk to about the area and the lake itself. We are only here for a few days but this establishment alone will keep us coming here all the way from Minnesota (9.5hr drive).“
