Ivy provided great service. I ordered a few items from the happy hour menu from 3-6, including the beer cheese pretzels, which came out fresh and hot. The loaded fries with bacon and green onions were also very good, along with the buffalo chicken dip served with tortilla chips and potato sticks. They have an impressive whiskey selection for a sports bar. Overall, it was a pretty good visit. 5 G's read more

My husband loves all their burgers especially the ones that contain bacon! I'm a chicken girl and their wings are so good! I like the Thai sauce on mine, it reminds me of the rooster at coyotes grill. Unfortunately the wings don't come with fries, which makes them less of a good deal, unlike the burgers. They're a bit expensive but for a date night or a celebration it works well! read more

It's loud but that's kind of what you wanted a bar restaurant. Lots of TVs a nice bar and there's even an upstairs if you want to get away from the crowd downstairs. Our food was good, love their mashed potato wish I could've had a bigger serving. read more

Tasty cold draft beer and good food ie. The glazed salmon. Unfortunately my ears hurt from the blown speakers behind the bar. It's the little things. Just turn it off please. read more

This location did a good job of accommodating a large party on a Friday afternoon. They have an upstairs dining area which can seat many. The one server they dedicated to our 30 person party did a very fine job of dealing with all of us. Most food portions seemed adequate, however, I ordered the fiesta salad, and although it didn't taste bad, there was nothing really exciting about it. It was allegedly fajita-seasoned grilled chicken, however, no spices were used for that. It also indicated that there would be green onions , along with fresh black bean corn salsa in the salad. When I searched for any of these things, I found four or five black beans, and a only few kernels of corn. So, while this restaurant worked for our large-party needs, I would not return for a personal meal. read more

My husbands food was inedible. The slider buns were hard as a rock ,so we super politely asked the server if they could be remade. The next plate of food was worse!!!! Gross. Steer clear of this Big whiskey's read more

This place was next to my hotel, so even though I've never had much much at "American Bar & Grill" type fare, I thought I'd give it a shot. Probably shouldn't have. I ordered boneless chicken wings and fries, hoping they'd at least be better than Buffalo Wild Wings, since I could have gotten those instead. I got the Carribean Jerk flavor. They were tender but the sauce was very one-dimensional. Basically tasted like spicy apple cider with a little garlic, and lots of salt. The seasoned fries tasted ok but holy sodium, Batman. So much salt. Salt Salt Salt. Probably going to need to order a gallon of water and some blood pressure meds after this. And I'm not a low-sodium kind of guy by any means, everything was just way over-salted. Maybe the chef is a chainsmoker or something, who knows. Or maybe they're trying to sell more beer. In any case, I probably wouldn't give this one another go, unfortunately. read more

The food was okay, but the service was terrible. The manager was running all over the place, apparently the only one working. At least six girls standing around talking. When we walked in they ignored us until said manager ran buy to say "someone will be with you shortly". Once we were finished we waited about 15 min to pay our check while our server chatted with her friends, only coming over once we got up to head to the front to find someone to get our check. read more

Stop! It's a trap! The pictures and reviews on this place looked great, but our experience didn't resemble them in the least. I hate to say it but the entire experience was unsatisfactory. We started with the potato soup, which I can only liken to baby food. The portion was super small, as in we all looked at it and raised our eyebrows. It was also basically some potato's with virtually no base to it. I could have turned the bowl over like a Dairy Queen blizzard and nothing would have come out of the bowl. When we asked the waitress about it she assured us it was how they did it. The bbq wings were so sticky sweet that they could hardly be pulled out of the paper basket they came in, and yet the meat was somehow still dry. The laws of physics seemed like they were on pause this night. I had the chicken Alfredo which consisted of a bunch of noodles, with chicken just dumped on top of it. The sauce wasn't stirred in and the quality was nothing to shout about even though the portion size was generous. The breadstick was just as bland as Wonder Bread. Most of our food was cleared off the table barely touched, which was undoubtedly noticed but not commented on by the server to see if there was a problem with it. The handicapped stall in the men's room was clogged and super nasty. Our server told us it was because they had an issue with tree roots invading their pipes so they kept putting tape across the door so it wouldn't be used but people kept pulling it down and using the stall. If I had to guess why I would say it is because it is a HANDICAP stall, so people with disabilities have no choice but to use it. I guess being ADA compliant is something that is only important when it is easy to fix. The manager came by at the end of the meal and asked how everything was and we ere just too stunned to respond. Avoid at all costs. read more

The food was alright, some dishes were a little underwhelming. More importantly, the song rock lobster was playing on repeat and that really brought down the ambience, maybe that's why the food wasn't as enjoyable as we would've liked. I would say visit as long as the music is down. read more

It's was ok, the burger was flavorful because of the bbq sauce, which was sweet and smokey. But the burger patty was cooked to death. Fries were seasoned nicely but were cold. Smallest shot of whiskey on earth, but the beer was cold and crisp. I'm left wondering why this place came so highly recommended... It's fine, but I think any fast food burger would have been just as good if not better. Last thing, the waitress was quick and nice, so it could have been worse. Come or don't, it is obvious this place has a clientele. I just can't figure out why. Mid. read more

The service was spectacular and the food was quick and delicious. The rice pilaf with my salmon was really salty and was almost unpalatable. I'm not sure if it was just the bottom of the pot since it was late or what, but I atill gave four stars because the waitress quickly gave solutions to the problem and I was satisfied. The brownie skillet was a perfect ending as well! There was a slight issue with the yelp coupon that I received for checking in but the manager ultimately honored it. Good place for a good chill dinner! read more

We love Dawson at the downtown Springfield location! 10/10 favorite server. Will definitely ask for him every time we come back.

Always a fan of this Big Whiskey's! Went here with my friends and one friend brought a dog, and we loved the outdoor seating! I got boneless wings with bbq sauce on them and they were soooo yummy. Service was very kind and fast! Will be back! read more

we went to dinner and Abbie was awesome she's so sweet and timely the food was awesome and had a great time

Our first experience at Big Whiskey's was a newer restaurant in Branson when we really needed a big whiskey after a family event. We still needed a strong cocktail after a similar family event but were headed in the other direction so we decided to stop at one of the three Springfield establishments. We had first set out for the one downtown but there was no parking. We ended up here. It was OK but I've had better Old Fashions. (I guess I'm an ice snob.) The appetizer we ordered, Buffalo Chicken Dip, was tasty and hit the spot. It might have been a four start review but we were sitting at the bar by some LOUD football fans (which of course is no one's fault but ours and our seating choice). :( I would probably try for the downtown spot on our next visit. read more

Big Whiskey's is a great place to visit for dinner! Nice ambiance - probably loud when they're busy, but great decor and it was quiet when I went in for an early dinner. The staff is professional and friendly. Ny server was very pleasant and didn't rush me at all...even after my flight was done & I felt a little too tipsy to drive! My steak was perfectly aged and delicious! I enjoyed a bourbon flight and appreciated that I got a card explaining the tasting notes and background of each bourbon! I'm glad they offered non-alcoholic refreshers - so tasty! For COVID, they are not allowing seats at the bar and are proving plenty of space between guests. Servers are wearing masks as well! Safe and healthy environment. Thanks for a pleasant experience - I'll return next time I'm in Springfield! read more

Shoutout to ABBI for her amazing service and kind demeanor! She always takes great care of us at the bar!

Good food and all the TVs. Abbi and crew at the bar take care of you especially during the games. Wings and burgers are never disappoint.

Out of all the Big Whiskey's locations, I think this is by far my favorite. I've been here several times and the service and food has been the best here. I wish I could have gotten a picture of my last meal here which was the bbq burger but I didn't cus Lord was it nice and juicy! I've had their wings, pasta, hamburger, and a couple of their appetizers and they were all amazing. For their appetizers I recommend the triple dip- that is always my go-to and their loaded fries are great as well. I also don't think you could ever go wrong with ordering their wings or their burgers. I did order a burger at the Republic location and it was not nearly as good as it was at this one. The pasta I ordered from here wasn't the best but it was still pretty good! I highly recommend this Big Whiskey's location because the employees here are fast, attentive, and friendly and plus there's a ton of tv's to watch your favorite team play. read more

Supposedly this is a medium steak. Then when I talked to the staff Reese told me "idk I'm not a cook" not you're not but as my wait staff you're the only person I can talk to. Rice clearly was from the bottom of the pot and recklessly served on the plate. Plating was in no way appealing to look at. read more

Arrived in the area late at night and was pleasantly surprised full menu service was available. The menu is mouth-watering. I stayed with the burger as it was late. Huge burger with fries. The bourbon and whiskey selection is second to none, even the hard-to-finds. Service was spectabulous. read more

I like that the kitchen is open late and they have unique but also classic menu items. we had the bartender as our server and she said she had been working there for years and helped us pick out our meals. i cant remember her name but she was really sweet. i want to say brittany or amy or ashley , i really dont know lol. it was late and i was tired. read more

The look and layout for TVs are great. Watching any game here would be easy and the drinks keep flowing. But from a guy visiting Springfield, damn you have a lot of beautiful women eating here. Seems like 75% women when we stopped in. Beer was cold and service excellent. Everyone with me liked the food but I would say nothing stood out as a main stay here. Good to above average food, A+ on atmosphere. read more

First time here, I travel for work, and this place is "okay" to say the least. The "bourbon glazed" salmon was horrific. Yeah, that's not bbq chicken, I'm sure that was much more tender. If you're wondering if that's mashed potatoes, you were wrong, it's rice pilaf and it was extremely salty, old, and over cooked. The green beans were forgettable and probably tasted better from the can. The glasses were dirty, you can see for yourself. Luckily, the waitress was nice and attentive. Great bourbon and whiskey selection! read more

Ordered carry out and got the food within a reasonable time but the quality of the food was very poor. Got a salad without any dressing that had bad chicken in such a small portion. Got the limited time cheese curds that were honestly pretty poor cheese curds compared to pretty every other option out there. Also got an order of salmon with two sides also in very small portions. Then lastly an order of chicken and shrimp where the chicken tasted poor again which was extremely small portion for an entree. Very overpriced for the quality of the food we were given. read more

A group of 10 went here for dinner last weekend, and we had one of the worst experiences I have ever had in Springfield while visiting my daughters at MO State! Our reservation was at 7:30pm, took about 20 mins. to get our drinks, and each drink after that took about 20+! Ordered our food about 7:45 pm, and the food did not come out until around 9:30pm, and some of the orders were cold, wrong, or just not good! Asked to speak to a manager and she said the kitchen was short staffed and backed up, but while waiting for our food several tables came and went and by the time we got our food the restaurant was clearing out. The manager acted like we were bothering her with complaining about the wait and the quality of the food, but she did remake a couple of meals. And the manager did take off a couple of appetizer's and a drink for the long wait and poor experience. We have been to the location downtown and had a much better experience and much better food. Unfortunately, I do not think we will be going back to that location! read more

New in town and after being introduced to places like La Hacienda, Leongs and Brunos I had very low expectations when the family announced we were doing BW. We went to one on Battlefield and got off to a rough start. Waiter and Hostess were just weird and seemed almost disoriented. Waiter seemed like he was going to panic when I asked for a Mechelada. At this point I was rolling my eyes and settled for a Bloody Mary. That being said, it was kid-friendly, service was prompt and my French Dip sandwich was fantastic. Fried pickles were exeptional, even the ranch and bbq sauces are outstanding. Nice flavors, which is the bottom line for me, but, $101 for lunch for 4 should be a far better experience. read more

Food was awful, the burger was only half the size of the bun and was cooked into a brick of charcoal and my fries were so cold the had ice crystal in some bites. 0/10 wouldn't recommend. You are definitely paying for the atmosphere, they lure you in with cheap (but awful) entrees, then get you with $5 small draft domestic beers and $14 appetizers. read more

I would like to express how AWFUL our experience was at your Battlefield location. I was there with my party of 4, for brunch on Saturday Agust 8th. Our server came over long enough to tell us her name was Kailyn WITHOUT a T! She did ask for our drink order. I noticed on the menu a specialty drink called "donut dude'" with a description of a White Russian with a homemade donut on top. I was told it would take 15 minutes because they had to make the donut, ok no problem. 10 minutes later she returns to tell me they were out of dough so the manager had to "run to Aldis to pick up a pack of BISCUITS to make your "homemade" donut!!! Really?!! The server then just disappeared ,we had to go to the bar to place our drink orders as she was MIA, let me make this clear we were the ONLY table in the restaurant so it was not like there was a busy rush! We saw on the menu eggs any way you want them. I ordered poached over medium. All of our orders were placed and after yet another long wait food was brought out by other people not our server. My eggs were fried and runny. We had to flag down a male server to send them back. Kailyn without a T came back with her hand on her hip and very snarky states "We don't do poached eggs" I said well perhaps when I ORDERED them that way you should have told me! She stalked off and would not come over at all anymore. All of our dirty dishes were piled up so I got up to clear our table and a very pregnant server came and snatched them out of my hand. The staff was rude, the food mediocre, and incorrect, the drinks over priced and super long wait, especially for the homemade aldis donut/biscuit drink. We had heard this was a great place to try. I will update friends to the contrary. read more

Been to a lot of the big Whiskey's locations and this has been a really bad experience. Ordered soup and it came out with a dirty soup, got a clean spoon to then take a bite and find it was out it was ice cold! Then got my meal to find the broccoli doused in pepper. Now this might be how they make their broccoli but when someone asks for plain grilled chicken you would probably make the sure the kitchen knows this person might not like their broccoli seasoned this way. My husbands burger was burnt to a crisp and didn't have bacon like the menu said. After the soup and how I was feeling from the day I didn't have the energy to complain about the other things. Just decided I'm probably not coming back to this location. read more

One of my favorites in town! I have gone back multiple times asking for the same server (Tucker I believe).
