04/2023 The Apple barrel restaurant Located inside Sapp Brothers travel plaza staffed by them but run as its own entity. Somewhere to like travel centers of America and Petro where they still have some country prides and iron skillets this is basically Sapp Brothers restaurants and some of their plazas still that have not closed up through the years in our now post covid world. As you come in through the travel plaza past Dunkin' Donuts from the car area or through the truck area you will see a separate entrance and it's a nice size Cafe. Breakfast is served all day long until they close currently hours are 7 days a week from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. excluding major holidays. Some people on other review sites say it's a little high on price it's kind of competitive nowadays a lot of things are a little bit higher but one thing I can definitely say is a quality you get what you pay for and boy was I impressed. I came and sat down I was greeted immediately I ordered up some cawfee splash of milk on the side for it like I like to add with my Splenda. they were almost ready to change shifts but not quite I got a menu she gave me plenty of time and I decided to go with the hamburger steak one of my favorites two eggs over medium hash browns not real crunchy and sourdough toast. I looked at the menu and saw they still have a great dinner selection too apparently they're burnt ends are a big big favorite I'll have to come back and put the feed bag on for those eventually. Most of the Sapp Brothers in my travels don't have restaurants there's only a couple I hit anymore where is there further out west they still have many with restaurants in them but I don't run that far west anymore hell I don't even think I've been to Omaha Nebraska and more than 5 years or west of there. My food came out I was very impressed it wasn't just a frozen hamburger patty this was a hand padded because it was lopsided and uneven which shows you oh yeah that's how you do it the right way you handpad it smash It Down came out fantastic. Put a splash A1 on there along with the eggs over medium just like I like them sourdough toast was good the hash browns that they were hash browns LOL. Other than that I was highly impressed and definitely decided to create the page because I noticed on the Google machine they have a review for the Apple barrel on its own too so I decided to take a shot and make one up because it's definitely worth it. This location is a very high traffic area because it sits at the junction coming south of Kansas City where you split off on State route 7 to go to words the gateway to the Ozarks from there down into Springfield lot of traffic comes through here. In the early weekend hours you may have to wait a bit for a seat cuz it does tend to line up a little bit I came in after the crowds it was a good time for me for brunch. Definitely will return when I'm in the Kansas City South area read more

Terrible service. We waited for over an hour for our food. Employees yelling at each other, stating they we out of food! Everyone in restaurant was waiting and annoyed. We won't go back!! read more

I changed my review from five stars to one star because of the guy who works there. I walked in and grabbed a menu that was sitting on a table right next to the cash register. I didn't go behind the register--I simply reached over and picked up a menu from the table. He immediately got smart with me and asked if I was serving myself. When I told him I wasn't going to give my business to someone with that kind of attitude, he responded by calling me "Karen." I will never eat here again, even though the food is really good. A server should not act like this. He's on a power trip and needs to learn how to treat customers with respect. read more

For being a truck stop restaurant, I had higher expectations for breakfast menu offerings and service. The prices were unattractively high. We decided to leave and go elsewhere. There was only one waitress trying to ring up and take orders from several tables and people at once leaving the wait time just to order drinks excessively long. read more

Burnt ends are not really 'burnt ends' Garden salad is iceberg kinda hard to eat on a small plate, I would've gone for another side had I known. Service was ok during a busy lunch Regular booth and chair dining room setup, salad bar unused in the middle. I wonder if they ever open it? read more

Perfectly cooked eggs! Great coffee! Really fresh fruit, just delicious home style food, some of the best breakfast we had in a long time with friendly service (thank you Tyler). If you find yourself along the I-49 corridor near Harrisonville, MO, it's definitely worth your time to stop for a bite! read more

Don't let the idea of this eatery nestled within a truck top keep you at bay. My husband ordered the B&G and I ordered classic French toast with a side of eggs over easy and hash browns. My husband is very picky about his biscuits and gravy, but this meal did not disappoint! From the welcoming customer service of Miss Loretta, to the delicious meals, this little stop is a gem off the I-7/49. If you're in for a treat, this is the place for a good home cooked breakfast. Quiet atmosphere with friendly people. read more

Apple Barrel Restaurant - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Harrisonville, Missouri

We visited Apple Barrel in Harrisonville last Saturday evening and it will likely be our one and only visit. The waitress seemed entirely disinterested in attending to customers. To be fair, I believe she was the only one working. A couple came in, grabbed their own menus and then left after about 20 minutes without the waitress even acknowledging their presence. A family also left a short while later, likely the same reason. Once we received our food the waitress never came back to the table. We had wanted dessert and needed a to go box. The food was good and the restaurant was clean. The service was not even close to adequate. read more

This restaurant is located inside the gas station, next to Dunkin' Donuts. They serve breakfast all day along with steaks and sandwiches. I ordered steak and eggs, and they were very good! Service was quick and there is plenty of seating inside the restaurant. I will definitely come here again. read more

Very typical truck stop foods we had breakfast eggs were small pancakes were large and blueberry may have been frozen

Truck stop diner. No frills but food was good. I recommend the sweet cream pancakes and the bacon was thick cut and very good. Prices were reasonable too. read more

Great burgers. Service is average but tolerable. Not terribly busy in my experience so seating is usually ample.
