Food, service could be improved. Don't go there anymore. Very inconsistent quality and they always mess up the order.

Every once in a while, you stop at a restaurant that takes you back in time. That Place is such a…read moreplace. It looks like a soda fountain straight out of a 1940s movie, quaint, and having that old time appeal. We stopped in on a Saturday night when they were in their busiest time of day, but we were seated promptly and they took our order within 10 minutes. The truly amazing part was that there were three high school girls there and no adult supervision and they were doing great . The young lady that waited on us called us y'all and sir. Not only was I impressed, I was also shocked. We kept it simple, so both me and my buddy had a cheeseburger, the best onion rings I've had in a long time, and a chocolate shake. All were delicious and the next time I'm in that area, I'm gonna come in and try something else. I would've left pictures of the food, but all I wanted to do was start eating the minute she set it down. If you're anywhere near this place, stop in and enjoy not only the ambience, but also the friendly service and the great food .

They can get busy at times but let them know if you need something and they will be right on it. They have a good selection of hand-dipped ice cream. There is a daily menu special too. The owner honors veterans and supports the local American Legion members. They have a good Philly cheese steak sandwich and a nice variety on the menu. They usually have some oldies music playing, toys for the kids, and nostalgic decor. Prices are fair. Worth a stop anytime except Sunday, they are closed. ;)

They tried some dimmer membership thing a few years back. Let me get this right, you want me to pay for the privilege of buying food from you? Who would be dumb enough to do that?

Interesting choice, my team of 5 decided on Chatters as the place we'll have lunch. I was…read moreintrigued because of the menu. We started out with two appetizers, Fried Ravioli & Popcorn Shrimp Basket. To be honest the Fried Ravioli wasn't worth ordering. Pretty much flavorless! The menu read stuffed with cheese & jalapenos. I don't think either existed in the ravioli. Had great potential but just didn't deliver. The Popcorn Shrimp was a step up and we're actually pretty good. The dipping sauce was rather strange - it seemed to be a spicy teriyaki which was okay just not a dipping sauce I expected. Maybe a choice of sauces would be a better option. Four of the 5 choose burgers and I think everyone truly enjoyed their choice. I chose the KC Special - pastrami burnt ends, w/two 1/4 lb burgers with cheese and a side of Freedom Fries. Two others chose the Heavenly Bacon and the last picked the Mushroom Burger. I think it's fair to say everyone enjoyed their burger. The lone dissenter felt the need to be on the healthier side and he went with the salmon. He described it as dry and over cooked. Luckily he choose the French Onion soup as a starter and he said it was one of the best soups he's had! Another one in the group also ordered the same and he said it was delicious. I'm mad at myself for not ordering because that is one of my favorites and can't believe I actually passed on it! Our server was GG and she was very pleasant and she was good at checking in on us to make sure we were doing okay. We enjoyed her waiting on us for our lunch meal. If we ever make our way to Pittsburg again I think I would definitely try this place again and look at trying other items on the menu!

We stumbled across this place when looking for dessert options in Joplin. We did see one review…read moreprior to stopping by that made us wonder if the other reviews were up to date. Unfortunately, we found that the latest review was accurate, the others are not. It appears they renamed this place "Caroline's", possibly. There were not 30+ flavors of ice cream, and the few they did have sadly appeared freezer burned. The coffee set up looked nothing like earlier photos with tons of flavor options. Half the place is a small boutique? The employee was kind.

We have been here twice through the years and enjoyed it. Today, on our third visit, the place had…read morechanged drastically. Instead of candy and a large selection of ice cream, they had boutiques goods, zero candy, and only 8 flavors of ice cream. The ice cream tasted freezer burned. Our children were thirsty (it's almost 90 degrees out) and wanted cups of water to go along with their ice cream but they had no cups. We had to leave and go to a fast food restaurant to get them some water. Before we could leave, a worker rudely accused our five year old of putting his mouth on a notepad that was for sale. We were all watching him and multiple adults never saw him put the notepad anywhere near his mouth. All in all, a very disappointing experience. If you want a sweet treat, go somewhere else.
