It was a good arrangement, and we had plenty of room. Our server was Shannon and she was fabulous! She was attentive, friendly, put up with all of our orders and generally made sure we had what we needed while we were there. I would give her 5 stars on her own, she was great. I ordered the Sugar Plum Fizz, and it looked nice enough, but it really just tasted like seltzer and not much else. I didn't drink it after the first two drinks. For food, I got a cup of chili and a half Italian salad. I asked for no cheese on the salad. The chili was ok, I ate it and the salad, but both were just ehh. It was a group get together and we had fun and the service was superb!

Overall, this little spot did not disappoint!

There was only 1 waitress for the entire place, she was nice enough but didn't wait around if you didn't know what you wanted and lacked personality. We had the onion rings which were very good. not too greasy and had a good crunch. The grouper sandwich was just ok. It was very greasy I had the chicken salad with the side of pretzel. Pretzel was great, salad fine but not exceptional. Lots of fried food. It's a typical local type joint. The bloodys were ok. Nothing but limes for garnish!! I missed the olives, celery or something. A cute local joint, not that I wouldn't go back but now I know what to expect.

We walked in and my friend who is 21 (and has a valid MO ID) went to the bar and asked for 2 shots. he was told that they don't serve people with vertical IDs and that this was NOT a dive bar... I then asked for 2 shots and handed the alleged "owner" who was bartending, my valid Military ID and was told that they don't serve out of state IDs. i told her that i am in the military and this is not a out of state ID and was very loudly told "WE DON'T SERVE THE MILITARY." We started walking out she told us to "GET THE F*CK OUT." Its a shame they lost all of our business for good after this extremely unprofessional unwarranted experience. I DO NOT recommend this bar if you are a military member, a valid divers license holder, or to anyone who doesn't want to get yelled at for trying to support a local business and have a good time. They need to get rid of that "owner" who was bartending. She is losing this establishment business and tarnishing the name of the bar.

We visited The Fireplace Bar for Friday night karaoke. This is a dive bar, in a good way. There are…read morepool tables and darts. It was very loud when we visited, not because of the karaoke, so it was a bit difficult to speak with the bartenders. I guess people were having a good time! There are lots of drink choices at reasonable prices. There is also food, which I didn't try. For the karaoke, you go up to the KJ get into the queue, and then add your songs across the evening for each of your turns. There was quite a variety being sung. You sing in front of the fireplace. There is a little bit of room to dance around the edges but not much. Despite being a "nonsmoking" bar, there were patrons vaping indoors and there was a cigarette smell inside (perhaps wafting in from the smokers outside?). The ladies bathroom was very clean. There is free parking outside in their attached lot, but you might have to get creative if you get there later in the night, as the lot gets crowded. This bar has a fun vibe for your friend group to go blow off some steam, but probably not a good place to take a first date.

They have a small lunch menu with items like burgers, chicken sandwiches, hot ham and cheese, and Italian subs. I chose cottage cheese as my side which I always choose if it's on the menu but next time I might try the fries just to check them out. This appears to be an established neighborhood bar with no frills, but exactly what you'd expect from a well loved spot that probably hasn't changed in decades. I preferred to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the sunshine, especially since the interior bar area reeks of cigarette smoke. I have no idea if they allow smoking inside or if that's a lingering scent from years past. Service was good and the staff are friendly. I would come again and sit on the patio. That burger was so juicy & cooked perfectly!

We tried the single smash burger, which was great and served on a plate that reminded us of grandma's kitchen. The fries were perfectly shareable, and the crispy Brussels sprouts were an absolute chef's kiss. They also have NA options for those who don't partake. Highly recommend!

I get them trashed and tossed in lemon pepper + buffalo which are indescribably delicious together. The wings check every box: great size, perfectly cooked and crispy, excellent sauce and seasoning, and most impressively, consistent quality every single time I've ordered them. That kind of consistency, especially in a place that is always busy, says a lot. On top of that, the service has always been great, the bar and beer selection is solid, the food is very reasonably priced, and the atmosphere delivers exactly what you want from a neighborhood pub. The only real downside is the limited indoor space, but when the weather is nice, the patio nearly doubles the seating. So it is really only an issue on those nights when the weather is bad and everyone in the neighborhood has the same idea you do: wings and cold beer.

We arrived on a Sunday afternoon and it was packed. Sports fans watching football on the many screens provided and people just gathering for trashed wings and beer. Sometimes simplicity equals comfort. That's how you'll feel, especially if Chuck the owner is checking in with everyone to make sure the food is good and they are having a good time. The menu is huge with a lot of options, but they are known for their trashed wings (be patient they take a little time to prepare). The fried green beans are so good and salads are huge and delicious. Everyone can find a favorite here. The vibe is local fun. Nothing fancy, nor needed. With a great staff you feel welcome to sit in the various areas inside at the bar, on the enclosed patio, or the outside seating weather permitting. Live bands in the summer- check the website. Great for families! Be prepared to be patient with the service. They do their best, but sometimes the food takes a while to come out of the kitchen.
