    Great original horseshoe!!
    Brian B.

    Every bar/restaurant should be this nice - dark wood, full bar, extensive food menu, screens for sports, great music playing.' Had their famous original horseshoe - burger on one slice of Texas toast, smothered in a wonderful cheese sauce. Customizable - your choice of proteins (chicken, pork, impossible burger, etc) and cheese sauces. The original was perfect - with no added sodium as I requested. Worth your time if you're traveling thru - wish I lived closer, as I would be a regular!!

    came to the area on the way to St. Louis from Peoria for our little weekend roadtrip. We were between here and another place because we wanted to try the city famous "horseshoe". We got the burger horseshoe with waffle fries and the queso on top of Texas toast. Each item was good on their own, but didn't add much to each other. We still enjoyed it though! We also got a Cobb salad which was probably the best salad we've had! The chicken was crunchy and it had the perfect balsamic dressing paired with it! We got a few rounds of the mimosas because they were really good but very strong which we loved. The waitress was very nice! Street parking! Old pub vibes

    Carne Asada Tacos. Great flavors!

    Haven't been back to Boone's since it was Boone's Saloon a few years ago, and I understand it's under new management. It was good back then, and thankfully, it's still pretty good. We were in town for a swim meet and stopped by on a beautiful, sunny Saturday afternoon for lunch. There were 12 of us in our party, and we were seated out on the back patio. It looks like the new owners have given Boone's a bit of a facelift without losing the cool neighborhood pub vibe it always had. The menu seems to not have changed a whole lot either, which is also good. BYO Burgers, BYO Mac and Cheese, Horseshoes, Street Tacos and some nice salads... they've got a little something for everyone. Also, we were traveling with children, and although Boone's is definitely a corner bar, they welcomed our kiddos with no issues. Our server was fantastic. We arrived with 12 people with no warning, and she couldn't have been more pleasant. She was super accommodating and even split the bill three ways with no issues. The back patio is partially shaded and features a great view of the state capitol. I built my own burger and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked to medium rare and definitely a hand packed patty. They had some great sauces and lots of options for toppings. I didn't get chance to snap a picture before I ate 1/2 of it. A few folks at our table had the street tacos, and they were also really good. Others decided to build your on Mac and cheese, and again, they said it was great. A nice place to spend an afternoon on a beautiful sunny day. Well done Boone's.

    Had lunch here today. Probably would not come back here to eat. The service was great, fast and friendly. The food on the other hand could really use some love. My daughter got chicken strips and fries. The chicken was almost burnt when it was delivered. Should not have been served. The "grilled chicken" on the salad was boiled flavorless chicken. The homemade croutons are nothing more than white bread. Some seasonings go along way on food. $9 for a bloody mary with very warm toppings is a huge disappointment. Throw the garnishes on some ice or something. Limp warm celery is not a garnish and nobody wants warm cheese. If you want underwhelming food with zero flavor this is your place.

    Very cool bar and grill. We sat outside on the patio for Saturday brunch and there is a cool view of the capitol building. Our server was efficient. The brunch items were basic but good and priced fairly. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for brunch in Springfield. The Boone's brew wasn't my favorite but definitely worth a try.

    Hangover Cure: Waffle fries with sausage gravy

    Came into Boone's to eat on Saturday morning after a Bachelorette party this weekend, with my friends. Service was quick! We were seated quickly and we got our much needed food and drinks promptly. Friendly staff, clean tables and comfortable dining space. Pancakes were nice and fluffy and the waffle fry/gravy combo satiated my hunger. Coffee, pancakes and the fries plus a coke, all for the great price of $13. I believe our server's name was Ashley. Thanks for taking care of us!

    Tasty looking bread pudding but I didn't have a chance to try it.

    We came in with a bigger group and things went well overall. There wasn't a ton of tables seated but we didn't arrive until 7 (and during the pandemic) when things might have died down a little bit. That said - of our fairly big group everything came out - though some orders took a little bit of extra time. We were told there was a new cook. The menu is a big confusing, but I had the gunslinger (a jalapeno burger) and my friend got a horseshoe. I think the menu could potentially use some pictures or a slightly better description for some items, but the horseshoe looked pretty delicious and comes covered in tasty white (or yellow) melty cheese. The burger was quite pretty and tasty enough. You can up-option to tasty waffle cut sweet potato fries for $2 on most orders (or free on the horseshoe). There was a decent beer selection for a local place, though the bar looked fully stocked with alcohol. Overall the server was friendly and pretty prompt considering the amount of orders at our table. The food was tasty and I felt safe while visiting.

    Hangover fries, pancakes, potato skillet, mimosatini, lemon drop, Moscow mule.

We sat at the bar, danced around and stepped outside a bit so it was alright. But I feel like with more drinks, music and the people that were on the way it would've been a great BLAST. The bartender said they were closing due to other engagements. Chevy was a pleasant bartender. I'll definitely be back to visit!

This couple with 2 corgis comes in, same people from buzz bomb, and obviously my dog is interested as is theirs. Their dog barked first*****, so mine barked after, duh. So a bartender came up to us (group of 10-12) and said if my dog barked again, we needed to leave. I asked another bartender why because the other couples dog barked first and his response was "well they come in weekly" ahhhh sooo it's okay since they patron there often and we don't as much. Although, their dog started it everytime?? So I was saying goodbye to my family and ANOTHER bartender came up saying we had to leave and don't come back. TRUST!!! We won't!! AFTER clyde and I left, the bartender told my brother in law that he told us to leave 3x which literally did not happen!! He told me the one time and we left. So please!! Roll the footage on that one I would love to see it. The bartender tried fighting my brother in laws dad after nasty comments were made about my niece.

You could order Bloody Marys or Mimosas for more $$$ but we stuck with coffee and juice. For the price, I would not go back.
