I went with a group of friends for a New Year's Eve bite and beer. My hamburger and fries were great! The homemade chips were amazing. I'm definitely going back for another burger!! read more

The old twilight. This place is a blast from the past. Reminds me of my college days. Food was all great. Burgers , chips, fries. No complaints! Our server was cool but told me Yelp was only for complainers! We all laughed and said that is how we found this spot again. Small joint with pinball table. They need a shuffleboard table again. Regardless we had a nice, casual New Year's Eve burger and if welcome will go back. read more

Used to love coming to this place to eat when I had family in town from St. Louis until the last time we went here. Blonde middle aged waitress was the rudest waitress I've ever seen in my entire life. She litterally walked up to our table with a horrific attitude. Was making rude remarks towards my dad for simply asking questions about coupons as well as other disrespectful stuff. We ended up eating at FireHouse Subs instead. Dugout was not crowded at all or close to closing time so she had zero reason to be so rude. My grandmother was at the table as well so she had to watch her son get disrespected by a lady with zero manners. Food is probably a 6/10 at best also. Waitress like that can really drive costumers away. read more

I love the Dugout!! Great atmosphere! I really like the blonde girl who used to work here. What happened to her?? Anyway, love the burgs man! read more

Just excellent food, great people, and reasonable prices. They smoke their own meats, including their wings (which are the best I've ever had.. ever.) The Turkey sandwich and burgers are standouts for me, but I have yet to try anything I didn't like. I think they use as much local meats and products as they can as well.. always a plus. It can take a while at times when they get moderately busy.. but I expect that when getting quality food, and don't mind drinking a beer or 2 while being patient. I look forward to every opportunity to eat there again read more

They refused to seat us because we had too many people. Even though the restaurant was empty and we were willing to sit at different tables. Won't come to this place again. read more

What a bummer. I went back again last night after receiving an apology from the manager through yelp. Food was great. Can't emphasize this enough. CHECK AND DOUBLE CHECK YOUR BILL! I WAS OVERCHARGED FOR BOTH OF OUR DINNER PLATES. Last time I was there I got pulled pork French fries with no pulled pork. I don't think anyone likes being taken advantage of and ripped off. I guess it's shame on me this time for going back and expecting to be treated honestly. Like I said, the food is good when you can actually get what you order. Unfortunately you need to watch carefully what you get and what they charge you. What a bummer. read more

This is a new place close to the ballparks. I really like it and plan on going again.

Try the Caribbean salad, turkey avocado sandwich (they smoke their own turkey!) or the pulled pork nachos! Everything I've tried with the pork or turkey is great. Chips and onion straws are also good. I haven't tried a burger yet, but friends have told me it's one of Springfield's best. Their happy hour goes until 9 or 10 at night which is awesome. The patio is great when it's not blazing hot outside and they have live music a couple of nights a week. read more

Don't do what you can't do well. What The Dugout does is offer the best-attention-to-detail-pub grub this side of the Missi-Sip. It's really that good. Those thin piles of onion rings, smoked meats and delicious sauces are why they win awards in town. Bringing the good time music that Matt knows how to procure, is simply spoiling us. read more

Showed up at 10 pm on a Sunday and they were closed. Yelp said it was open. Step your game up. #unoit

Great place to eat. Great atmosphere. Best burgers in town. Parking no issue!! We will definitely come back here when we are in town.

Pork tenderloin sandwich was bland and all fat. I couldn't even chew it. My drink tasted like soap. Very poor experience.

Wife and I went here for a date night. Everything was very good. The atmosphere is your typical hole in the wall bar. We first ordered a few drinks. My wife did not know what she wanted so the server brought her a sample of a beer they were promoting. My wife who is not an avid beer drinker loved the recommendation and ordered one. We then ordered the pull pork nachos as we saw the smoker out back as we entered. They were very good, with the right amounts of everything on them. We then both ordered different types of burgers, and they were juicy and very flavorful. Those along with the hand cut fries made for a great meal for both of us. Our server looked like the only server in the room, and seemed to be handling all of the tables. Which you would think would lead to a lack of service. But not in this case, She was on top of every drink/food order, or empty plate/glass. The food and drinks came with lightening speed, and she was very personable. She worked that room like a Pro. The service along with the food did not disappoint. We will be back. read more

Perfectly unassuming, unpretentious, hole-in-the-wall bar to grab a burger and brew. Nothing fancy; you'll fit in with a tank top and flip flops. Good burgers, but skip the upgrade for onion rings. I think the menu said onion rings, but they were onion straws, sliced very thin, and all batter. read more

Dugout Bar & Grill - Sports Bars Near Me - Springfield, Missouri

The Dugout is one of Springfield's best! The drinks are good and the food is even better. Some of our favorites include the fish tacos (add the house made chutney if you like spicy things), falafel salad with cucumber yogurt dressing, and the burger with onion rings (thinly sliced, more like onion strings but SO GOOD). The staff is friendly and always make us feel welcome. We often bring our kids during the slower hours (basically before 6... maybe 7pm) because they really enjoy the food, too! read more

One of the best burgers in town. The service is always excellent. Nice little college joint. If you're in Springfield you should definitely eat there! read more

One of my favorite places to hang out! Sure the parking totally sucks but the homemade pretzel and ice cold beer with St. Louis cardinals to watch. What's not to love! read more

They smoke everyday fresh wings, turkey & pork! Hands down the best wings in Springfield!

Steven created the "Baconception". A bacon infused burger that I will call a masterpiece! And the house made chip dip was really good also! Friendly atmosphere! read more

Great little dive ish bar. Not sure I would call it a sports bar based on only 3 large TVs, but the bar part and the good was pretty good. I had the jerk chicken salad and it was great. Most places don't put a whole lot of effort into salad but this was an exception. Would like to have tried the Cuban sandwich. Nice place to hang out and get decent food with a friendly staff read more

We always have a great time here. The food is good, the staff is pleasant, the live music is the best around town. I highly recommend stopping in here. read more

This food is awesome SMOKED wings!!!!! The smoked turkey avacado melt is the best sandwich ever.
