50 Best Bars in Springfield

“went to ocean zen last night for parkview highschools alumni night food was amazing and staff was friendly“

“Service was great, Kim took excellent care of our table. The food was excellent, got all appetizers for a happy hour get together. Bacon wrapped olives were a delightful surprise, fatty and briney in the best way! Calamari was very well prepared but the sauce it's served with us pretty bland (ranch was better). Gojuchang wings were awesome! Jalapeno poppers were good too. Duck bacon wontons...highly recommend, unique and tasty! Very clean, great menu. Would have given 5 stars, but EVERY table in there was wobbly. Some were crazy uneven. Just make dishes and drinks unstable.“

“Great food, great people, great drinks!“

“Definitely the best bar in The Ozarks.

Stepchild's sets the standard for great times with you and all your cool friends and family.

If you play pool and want some great and fun games come to Stepchild's where the best pool players in the 417 are at. Come play.“

“This place is pretty amazing. The food is great, and it comes out pretty fast, but often times there is only one or two people working there, and they have to tend to the bar also. The atmosphere can be good and can be bad. Normally there are just a lot of old people hanging and playing poker or some other old person game. I would check this place out if you’re in town for sure though!

Parking: The parking is weird, it is very hidden at first along with the restaurant itself, and one time a Sherwin Whilliams semi full of paint jackknifed and we had to go off-road to get out.“

“omg sweetest bartender I have ever met. I had the Buffalo wings, they were amazing! 5 stars to Erin.“

“Great beer and karaoke!!!“

“High quality very tasty not your typical bar food . I had the full size nachos that was huge ! Beer cheese sauce is my favorite on the nachos . Tried the mango wings and honey Shiraha bone in wings , very tasty and meaty . It was a very busy Friday night tonight , Ben our server was polite and pulled through it , along with the cooks .“

“Their menu is short, but with amazing options. Each dish is the perfect appetizer size for 2 people and the drinks are phenomenal! We came here kind of late and were able to order food right before the kitchen closed. We started off with 2 drinks: a glass of Sauvignon Blanc for me and an Orange Dream for my husband. We were very hungry so we ordered 2 appetizers. The mezze board comes with fresh flatbread, falafel, hummus, baba ghanoush, and tzatziki. We also ordered chips and dip. The dip was yogurt based with chives. Everything tasted absolutely wonderful and flavorful that our plates were sparkling clean by the time we were done. Their service was fast, the staff friendly and attentive. The rooftop location is great offering both indoor and outdoor seating. Overall an absolutely fantastic experience, definitely a must if you’re in Springfield!“

“I work at walmart next to this bar and enjoy a few beers here most nights.

The crowd can be rough around the edges, but if you have some salt in your pockets, it can be fun laughing at the tough guys from the salty spatoon.

There are lots of cool rooms and a smoking patio.

Cheap beers and wells and great bartenders!

And don’t wear silver. Vampires.“

The staff there are alert and make sure the patrons stay safe which is a huge plus.“
