    This was the old fashioned.
    Tracy V.

    Cute, small bar I happened across while antiquing on a weekend. Met a friend there. We each had the barrel-aged old fashioned which is phenomenal. Friendly staff. Food looked good but we didn't have any as we had dinner planned at another place. They also have live music at times, but there was none while we were there.

    Papa's place is a cute restaurant in old town clovis. The decor has an old time feel, and they have live music some days. We started off with the fried green beans. They have a variety of homemade sauces like honey mustard, curry, ketchup, ranch, etc to go with it. Our waiter was nice and gave us some extra sauces to try. This was probably the tastiest part of our meal. For my entree, I got the pork belly. A large portion of it was fat, which is understandable as pork belly is a fatty cut. What I found strange was that some parts of the meat were really dry, and other parts were tender. I didn't like how the greens weren't trimmed. There were several hard fibrous kale bits in the salad which were inedible and a little distasteful. The chicken was also unremarkable. Overall, the food was just "okay" at Papa's place.

    Great place to meet up. Appetizers are a great start. Try the Mac and Cheese balls. Listening to local artists and having a great time!

    Service was good but they charged me $1.00 for a proper ice cube in my old fashioned. Crazy.

    I had a date night with my fiancé and they had a live band playing. It was two men. I was wondering if anyone knows who they are?

    Look at their Facebook page. I was looking and they show bands that have played. Just scroll down to the day you went. You can probably see a picture there and find out. https://www.facebook.com/papasplaceclovis/posts

    The Local has a ton of potential. My family and I were excited to try a new restaurant in Clovis ,…read moreand ran across positive reviews of this place. We headed in at an odd time yesterday around 230pm. It was late for lunch and too early for dinner. Nevertheless, we were seated in the front dining area, and ordered some entrees. The menu offers a lot of familiar favorites that you would expect to see at a a bar/ restaurant. Burgers, sandwiches, salads, and a few specialty plates. For my meal, I ordered The Local burger (no pickles of course) which was absolutely fantastic. Piled high with cheese, bacon, lettuce and tomatoes - this burger was executed to perfection. I ordered it medium, and it came out medium (imagine that). The best part was the sunny side egg that was placed on top. That first bite was heavenly. The yolk breaks, and all the goodness adds a little extra flavor to the already delicious burger. The shoe string fries were seasoned perfectly- I highly recommend this entree. The only thing I would add next time is an element of spice to take things up to another level. My wife ordered the BLTA sandwich , with sweet potato fries. I didn't try a bite because I had enough bacon on my burger , but I did sneak a sweet potato fry , and it was fantastic. My son order the chimichurri steak , he seemed to enjoy it although it may have had too much sauce on it for his liking. Perhaps it would been better if he ordered the sauce on the side. My picky daughter ordered the pesto chicken sandwich ,and she said it was pretty good. My family and I were full , but weren't going to let the dessert options pass us by. My family has a sweet tooth. We all shared the chocolate cake and bread pudding . Both are nice options if you need something sweet to top off your meal. The food and vibe of this place deserves 5 stars. I will deduct one star for the mediocre service and inconsistent food prep. Our meals were coming out one by one which made it awkward when trying to eat together. Our server didn't offer refills on our drinks , and didn't bring us utensils -until we asked for them. I will be back to try more menu items , and enjoy a cold beer while watching the game.

    This spot is a solid choice for lunch, with lighter options like sandwiches, salads, and grilled…read morechicken. The food overall is decent, but nothing is a standout. The Local gets the job done if you need a quick bite during the work day. I tried the BBQ Bleu Burger, which comes loaded with bleu cheese crumbles, BBQ sauce, bacon jam, fried onions, and the usual burger fixings. The burger itself was generously sized, but the patty was underseasoned, and the dominant flavors were mainly the bleu cheese and BBQ sauce. My wife ordered the pesto chicken sandwich and felt it lacked flavor. Our kids split the mac & cheese and a grilled cheese sandwich, but neither was a hit. Even the grilled cheese went mostly untouched, by my kids which was unexpected. On the plus side, the outdoor patio is cozy and looks like a great spot for fall dining with a drink in hand. They also offer brunch, though it's available by reservation only.

Frank was tending and did an amazing job. I wanted to try new drinks, but not sure where to start. Frank gave great recommendations. The Pepina was my favorite I ordered it twice. A cucumber pineapple based cocktail. The inside of the bar is decorated beautifully with photos along all the walls, bathrooms are clean. They have a stage for live performances by bands. Seating off to the side if you don't want to sit directly at the bar. Returned a second time on a busier night, staff is friendly, drinks are being made promptly, crowds is lowkey chill vibes. Older adults who are mature, drama free crowd. I really enjoy coming to The Howlin Wolf. 10/10 would recommend!! I don't have photos of the area, but I have photos of my pretty drinks

There's a dance floor and even an area to play a game. I'm not exactly sure what game it is.. but there is a game table. There's a cute mirror hall leading up to the restrooms. I forgot ol girl name that helped us out but she did a great job with any questions we had about the drinks on the menu. They even have a Russian roulette spinner if you're feeling ballsy and want to take a random shot. The whole bar area is a vibe and the inside is gorgeous!
