I ordered the famous cheese burger…read moreI've been getting here for almost 3 decades only to discover something had gone awry the second my plate hit the table. The "new" gourmet style bun was about the size of silver dollar and the burger as flat as a potato chip!! You'd think I was in manhattan eating chefs portions. Apparently, the famous Cody's burger reign is over. The fries while in smaller portions are still fantastic.

If you're on the hunt for the best Scotch eggs around, this place is an absolute must. We…read moreunexpectedly went on a scotch egg tour this week. I will not drag the competition, but Dublin's Pass was the clear winner. I won't use specifics, but you get so much more bang for your buck, purely from a financial aspect. Let me first say, the eggs arrive on a plate with a light breading that adds the perfect balance of crunch yet balanced with the soft egg. All brought to you with a mustard that is the perfect combination of pickled veg and punchy mustard. The meat was cooked perfectly. The combination between the meat, egg and mustard marry one another beautifully to lend to a flavor roller coaster in your mouth. What really sets these Scotch eggs apart is the attention to detail. They taste like they are meant for a flavor rollercoaster. Each element feels intentional. Whether you're a longtime Scotch egg lover or trying one for the first time, this restaurant sets the bar high. Simply put: these are the Scotch eggs other places should be aspiring. Eggs aside, we also had an order of the boneless wings. Not a hard thing to get right, but we had roasted garlic parmesan with garlic aioli, to die for. I am from out of town, and this place is absolutely a must. It will never not be on to do list.

We are regulars, but didn't have a good experience on Valentine's Day for breakfast. Poor service…read morefrom a not very friendly woman server with dreadlocks. They were out of Kale Tonic, our fav beverage. Then, after our food finally showed up, my Bacado was over cooked. It took a while to get the server's attention and when we finally did, she rolled her eyes and took it back to redo. Then, when someone else brought the food out, she never even checked on us. Again, not the usual experience, but definitely not a good way to start our special day together.

It's so hard to find anymore, and our service was courteous and prompt. Bravo! Flavor of our meal was above average, indeed our meal was very memorable. My only wish.. that it could be a touch quieter. Having said that, I will be putting this meal on a list of favorites and I can't wait to go back.

Stayed in Branson, but went to Springfield for a graduation. The graduate recommended FD's. This is…read morethe only restaurant that I would drive from Branson to Springfield to eat. Gracey and Bruce were our servers. Both were great. Gracey immediately removed trash ( which is a rarity now days). The service reminded me of a cruise vacation from several decades ago. My wife and I shared the trio ( salmon, shrimp and chicken tenders) plus baked potato, steamed broccoli and a salad. Our bill was a bit over $20 plus tip. The only thing I wish we would have changed is we would double up the shrimp instead of the chicken. 3 at our table raved at the sirloin. My father in law said his baby back rips were wonderful. Everyone raved at the food and the service. My only warning is get there early--- don't expect to walk to table at noon. We got there when it opened at 11am and they accommodated our group of 8 immediately. My brother in law drove back for a return trip a couple days later ( I had to go home). My opinion is since Covid most places don't do good service anymore. FD's does.

We came for the fish and chips they everyone raved about on the reviews. We ended up getting the seafood sampler. We stated off with a small salad and French ok ion soup. Took quite a bit of time before we got either. Once we got the food the soil was good, the salad was just a salad. We were disappointed in the seafood. It was way over cooked, the shrimp was tough and the fish had no flavor. The Cole slaw tasted like someone had just sliced the cabbage and put it in a bowl.

Some real creative minds made the various pieces that adorn the walls of the place.

When I visit Springfield, I will be adding this to my rotation of dining as they have great employees, friendly service that is up and beyond and delicious great quality food!!! Their waffle option as solo is Belgium waffle, butter, syrup and a ridiculous tasty warm blueberry compote. The waffle taste like a classic yeast waffle that is dusted with powdered sugar, light airy, crispy and delicious! They have good coffee as well and it is their own "First Watch" coffee blend. I want to come back soon to enjoy more scrumptious menu items, the word of mouth is all that and delivers! The restaurant was filled but our order was out within 12 minutes, hot, homemade and fresh, they have service down pat, it doesn't get any better! We visited this location on National Ave.

Farmers Gastropub is, in my opinion, the best restaurant in Springfield -- and it's not…read moreparticularly close. What sets it apart is consistency and care. Every detail feels intentional, from the food to the service to the overall experience. You can tell it's run by people who genuinely care about what they're doing, and it shows every single time. The menu leans a bit British at times -- you'll see things like bangers and mash -- but more than anything, it's just relentlessly high-quality food done right. I've been going here for years, and it never slips. That kind of consistency is rare. It also strikes a great balance: arguably the nicest restaurant in town, but still comfortable enough that you don't feel out of place in a t-shirt. If you're in Springfield and want the best overall dining experience, this is it.

Eating in a wing back chair, at some odd table, isn't well suited for dining. But, sure looks neat. The food is ok to good: Burger : The burger was really good. Has some jam sauce on it which really works. Beef has a good flavor. The bacon was very good. . Potato soup: The soup is good....but needed far greater seasoning to have it be great. Pork Wings: Again, needed more seasoning to elevate the pork. And the dipping sauces were a bit unusual. And the Asian style sauce - by gosh did it have a ton of saffron. Patagonia side item: These potato chunks weren't much. Potatoes were nothing special, under seasoned and the dipping sauce was unusual. And so much saffron, it was way overpowering. . Is it worth going to - absolutely and the place is neat. But I give an extra 1/2 to 1 star more, just because of the neatness of the place.

I really wanted to like The Table…read more The space itself is absolutely beautiful -- one of the best dining rooms in Springfield -- and it feels like the kind of place that should deliver a more elevated, full-service experience. That's part of what made the counter-service model feel a little out of sync with the atmosphere. We first tried visiting as a group of about 12 on a Saturday around 7 PM. I had called ahead and was told they don't take reservations, so we planned accordingly. When we arrived, we were told there wasn't any way to accommodate our group together -- not even the option to wait for space to open up -- so we ended up going elsewhere. I did come back later with a smaller group for lunch. The experience was better logistically, but still a bit disjointed. The menu felt somewhat scattered, and while we were able to find seating at a communal table, the overall flow felt a bit chaotic. After ordering at the counter, the wait for food was quite long -- around 45 minutes or more -- which gave us plenty of time to observe how things were running. Toward the end, I noticed tables being marked as unavailable/reserved, which made me wonder why a similar approach couldn't have worked for larger groups earlier. When the food arrived, it was good -- nothing wrong with it -- but not especially memorable, especially considering the wait and price point. There's a lot to like here, especially the space and overall concept, but the execution didn't quite match the expectations for me. I do think with some adjustments to service flow and consistency, this could be a much stronger experience.
