We are here about 2 times a week. We have always enjoyed everything we've tried. I LOVE that the employees lookout for everyone, going so far as to request screaming children's parents to POLITELY get their children to stop running, stop climbing the columns, and please stop screaming. I appreciate the consideration and the fact that the employees were attempting to maintain the safety of the kids even when the parents weren't. The parents then got angry and cursed at the waitress who remained calm & polite...very professional! Keep up the great food & service! I will definitely be back! read more

I'm in here every week sometimes 2-3 times a week!! I love that they offer breakfast on Saturdays bc this town needs breakfast options!! the staff knows me bc I'm obsessed with their baked potato's and salads and now they are working on a new menu and they are going to have flatbreads which are amazing! Wraps, more sandwiches, a trio sampler as an appetizer and I love their golden BBQ sauce on their wings!?!? They also have fish on Fridays and other weekly deals like wing Wednesday and it's like 50 percent off wings and other burger deals throughout the week! COME CHECK IT OUT! read more

When we got there there was a really nice guy that was very nice behind the bar and made us a great drink. Once he left, no one would help us. One server sat next to us at the bar and counted her tips, barked orders to others all night and just wasn't personable at all. Finally a girl named Ashley asked us if we needed another drink and was very polite. We asked to pay our bill and as 2 friends they handed us our bill assuming we were together. Ask if we were separate? Nope. When I asked what my portion was, the grumpy big girl snorted my total to me. I'm not so sure I'll be back anytime soon, unless that nice guy that was there at the beginning is there. read more

The Tipsy Lion Bar & Grill - Burgers Near Me - West, Texas

Awesome service, the friendliest workers, delicious food, & the best drinks!! Great atmosphere, we loved it so much we went 2 nites in a row! read more

Bad service, and the food was really bland and lacking any seasoning whatsoever. The beer was good but it's hard to mess that up. Overall I can't recommend this place at all. P.S If you order the wings they are not fried the skin was chewy and rubbery almost as if they were baked. read more

Cool little spot! Delicious food & beer! Best boneless chicken wings I've ever had! The dry rubs are fantastic. Also, the bacon chicken ranch pasta and quesadillas are great! read more

What an amazing gem we found in West!! My husband and I were were driving back to San Antonio from Fort Worth and we decided to stop to eat and watch the football game. First of all, Regina the bartender was an absolute ray of sunshine!! She was kind, efficient, talkative, and made our drinks perfectly. The food was delicious too! We had the fish tacos, the broccoli cheese baked potato, and the chicken avocado BLT. Portions are big and we had some to take home with us. Overall, we highly recommend the Tipsy Lion!! Thanks Regina! read more

I had the bacon cheeseburger with peanut butter sauce. Idk just because, something different. Recommend it Wednesday I'd half priced wings btw !! Just a short drive from Waco. read more

A hidden little gem in West Texas. Passing thru to Dallas and we stumbled across this restaurant. Great food. We had the crack burger, fries and wings. Everything was delicious. Worth a stop and will definitely do it again. Carlos and Marissa were great and very friendly. read more

Went Sunday morning for Breakfast/Brunch...they open at 8am. Super friendly, AMAZING food! We had the build your own burrito (that thing is huge!!!) and the Breakfast croissant sandwich. Nothing disappointed! Staff was super nice and friendly. Clean establishment and love the exposed brick walls! Will be back again! read more

Nice people, cold beer and good food. The club sandwich, wings and street tacos were all tasty.

Don't know what it takes to place an order for food got are drinks finished them with the waitress walking passed 5 times and standing at bar drinking a soda. Had to go to bar and wait to pay for drinks when waitress finally decided to move after 2 minutes of staring at us then bar tender finally finished bullshiting with people came up and said they have a lot going on 4 tables of 2 , 1 table of 6 bar tenders BS ing buddy's. Will on go there again. read more

Do I have to say it... ew. Food, frozen. Margaritas, Meh. Wait staff, awesome! I feel bad they have to work at such a place. It's one redeeming quality is the pool table upstairs. Fried Cheese Curds sent me to the hospital for 2 minutes. I do wonder what goes on in the kitchen, that microwave must be enormous. I also enjoy watching the train go by every 45 seconds. read more

The staff is very friendly and cool , the food is awesome!!!! Really!!!! And very relaxing ambiance.

Stopped on the way back from Baylor graduation. Really nice little local spot with good food and good prices. Pleasantly surprised!

Delicious burgers but wait time was long. The chips and dip were okay but the salsa was from a jar I believe. read more

Service was great! Even on a Friday night.. food was tasty. I recommend the Texas Egg Rolls! Clever, crispy way to start the meal!

This establishment holds a Texas vibe. The staff are friendly and attentive. The one observation that I would like to make right off the bat is how much ownership Michelle placed squarely on her shoulders to see to it her customers were waited on. I know that not only was she working the bar and customers seated at tables, she was also disappearing to the kitchen to help what I assumed was a skeleton cook team. I would like to express my gratitude to her while also noting that the owners where no where to be seen. Maybe they were in the kitchen..who knows. Ok enough of that. The street tacos were ok. I would have preferred corn tortillas & a charred jalapeño on the side. I guess I'm just spoiled like that. Will come back and hope you will give this place a gander when traveling through West on I-35 read more

The Tipsy Lion Bar & Grill - Steak Street Tacos - Burgers Near Me - West, Texas

Looking to get a homemade, not fast food lunch but unless you are looking for a place to hang out with local good ole' buddies and drink booze, don't come here looking to get a good meal. Took forever to get waited on, waitress used a tablet to take order and still order came out wrong and cold. Definitely not worth the price. read more

The location of this place was perfect off the hwy! The two ladies working the bar were extremely helpful. We had burgers and tacos and they were very good. They had lots of TVs to watch the games with a wide selection of all the games all around the interior. Highly recommend read more

Great food, great service, and the ambiance is nice too. We will stop back by when we are passing through.

Beautiful bar & grill! Stopped in for a quick lunch after business in West and was pleasantly surprised. Great decor and super clean. I sat at the bar and began a conversation with Nicole, one of the owners. She was friendly and attentive. I got the boneless wings, dry w Lucky Lady rub. They were cooked to perfection. Moist with a light but crunchy batter. Evidently, it's cooked with a very special recipe and technique. Nicole said they make everything fresh when it's ordered. Everyone who came in was friendly and had lots of great things to say about The Tipsy Lion....especially the fried fish which is served on Fridays. I'll definitely be back! read more

The Tipsy Lion Bar & Grill - Inside - Burgers Near Me - West, Texas

Great food, good atmosphere and friendly people. Plus one of only 2 places in West, Texas to watch the Cowboys game and have a beer.

Was driving on I35 and stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Friendly service. Great atmosphere. The menu was a bit small, but the "build your own sandwich" was neat idea. Started with warm chips and queso with 2 drinks. Ordered sandwiches with the best onion rings I've had in a while. Very reasonably priced. Nice small town bar. read more

Girls night out. The live music was great. The bartender was awesome. We were taken care of by the other staff members. The brisket quesadilla was on point! Classiest place in the square. read more

The wings are on point and the menu offers a big variety of food. The staff are friendly and make you feel welcome. Tipsy Lion is a frequent stop for me as they hold various events through out the week!! read more

Stopped by today with my husband and two kids under five. Service was great, friendly and attentive and we were pleasantly surprised by the excellent food. We ordered a waffle, pretzel and fries (again, dictated by the under fives :) and wasn't sure what to expect as their menu focuses on more standard pub fare (wings, burgers) but everything was fresh and delicious - clearly made from scratch. The venue is nice as well - would definitely stop here again when in West! read more

Service was slow but drinks and food were great would go back but hope I drinks come out a little faster next time. Not exaggerating when I say I sat there for 15mins waiting on just a beer. read more

They were busy but got our whole volleyball team (parents included) fed and back to the games in short order. Burger was delicious and beer and drinks cold. Couldn't ask for anything else! read more

I got food posining after eating here.after eating I bacon cheeseburger had to got to the er for 2 days.

Ok. So the 5 star rating may seem weird. First, we ordered the Philly cheesesteak. They come out and say they're out of the rolls. Strike one. Then we asked to watched the Texas Rangers game and they don't have Bally's network. Strike two. Then they run out of Miller Lite on the keg and we had to order the cans. Strike 3. But I will tell you. We made a day trip from Dallas and found this place and next time we're down there we'll go back to see Michelle. Shit happens and she made the most of it and made our visit worth while. We had fun and the food we had was good. Great relaxing place to go to get out of the city. Thanks Michelle. We'll hopefully see you soon. read more

Stopped in here last Saturday night for supper and was impressed with food and service, so we went back tonight to try it again and different menu items. Food was horrible tonight. Mushroom over cooked , fries over cooked and onion rings burnt. Feel the way the food came out it was just a bad cook but old dirty grease. It will be a while until we will go back. read more

Our 40th High School Reunion was held here on Saturday, 09/10/22. This is a great place!! The food is great, the atmosphere awesome. The wait staff are over the top. We had over 40 people there and they never missed a beat!! We never had to wait for drinks and the food was delish. I HIGHLY recommend this place as a venue and even just straight up restaurant. It would be a great place to have adult refreshments and watch football! Can't wait to go back. Give them a try!! You will not be disappointed. read more

This will be a long one since one-sided stories are "good enough" for this establishment to make assumptions and decisions from and comments are being made without knowing all the facts so here goes... A little back story.. my husband and our 13 year old daughter worked there. Within 2 weeks, my husband (a cook) received a $2 raise for his hard work, quality food put out, dedication and leadership qualities. He was praised for the hard work he did, even had a personal shout-out for his professionalism. One night after telling another worker, a KID, to take out her trash, said child told the owner that he called her a b****. The owner then began talking to him as though HE were the child, not even allowing him to tell what happened, especially the fact that he certainly did NOT call this CHILD a b****. So with the owner having zero regard to collect both sides of what happened, he quit. My daughter stayed, as this was not her battle, she enjoyed her job, and was told she wouldn't be treated differently just because her father left. However, things VERY quickly changed. She'd go to work, just to have the other children (15 and 17 years old) talk about her, point and laugh while making comments and taunt her, even though she never had problems with any of them before. She was then sent home, even though she was the only dishwasher on while keeping 3 cooks (also kids) "because they weren't busy", later to be texted it was because she was "playing around and being rude" to the other children working. As far as being mean to the other employees, maybe she was standing up for herself from their bullying. But again, the owner never sat down and had a discussion about the events, yet instead decided to listen to the other children and fire her... Through a text message! I'm not writing this because of what happened with my husband, not my battle, but as a MOTHER, I will ALWAYS go to battle for my children, and for her to not even be able to tell her side of what happened, then to be fired through a text, to me, was completely unprofessional and uncalled for. How would you feel if that was your child, being taunted and talked about, given no decency to even having a conversation about the events, just to be fired through text?! Having been a manager for MANY years, never once in my professional life, would I fire someone through a text, especially without allowing a conversation to take place. And allowing literal children to work for you and basically narrate your "professional" decision making on an employee with no common decency to a discussion from all parties before making the assumption based one-sidedly shows ones true character and poor leadership. read more

I love it this place! The food is great and they have a very friendly staff. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun.
