We ordered take out but the person in the phone was attentive and the food was great. I had wings and a loaded baked potato- the wings were cooked perfectly and I'll be back for the spud. My husband got meatloaf - one of his favorites. Nice to have a place to grab a meal in our neighborhood. We'll be back. read more

Went for lunch. Service was outstanding. There were more people than I expected for this visit out of the way, rarely talked about location. That alone tells you something. The food was delicious. I had a buffalo chicken wrap and sweet potato fries. Good portion of food for lunch. I will be back! read more

I had a brisket meat cheese burger on grilled ciabatta bread with a side of sweet potatoes fries - fabulous! Hubby had the Philly cheese steak sandwich (made with prime rib meat) with onion rings on the side. Also very yummy. We will return soon. Our waitress Megan was outstanding! read more

Wellers Grill & Bar - Cheeseburger, sweet potato fries, onion rings and Philly sandwich - Bars Near Me - Topeka, Kansas

Staff is amazing and efficient! MUST try the cheese pillows! Just ask for them, they'll know what you mean.

First time, trying this bar and Grill, as it is relatively close to our home and have heard decent things about it. Went on a Friday night. It was prime rib night so fairly busy. We were told it would be a 30 minute wait and that was accurate. We had very friendly service. Our server was very attentive and quick. We ordered the chicken fried steak sandwich on ciabatta bread with a side of fries and 12 ounce ribeye with a baked potato and side of green beans. That chicken fried steak on the sandwich was housemade. The sweet potato fries were abundant and tasted like they had a little bit of cinnamon added. My spouses steak was cooked perfectly as was her baked potato. She said her steak was very tender. They even added a dab of compound butter to the top. Not sure about other nights, but being it was a Friday night, it was quite noisy in there. It was hard to hear each other talk. They really should get another door into the kitchen because every time a server goes in the yell loudly "door!" and that is kind of disturbing to our conversation. We will be back and try some other things. read more

Was craving some fried pickles one day and wanted to try somewhere new so we went to Wellers, the fried pickles and jalapeños were FANTASTIC! We got some burgers also and they were amazing, I'm pretty sure they have cut they're potato wedges because they are the best I've ever had at a restaurant. Food came out very fast and the waiters were all nice! read more

Not great. Waited way too long for my food. My taco salad was decent, but, my mother's order was wrong and her fries were cold. If i'm waiting longer than 30 minutes for my food, I better be blown away. Needless to say, I wasn't... read more

Living on the north side of Topeka I want a successful bar and grill to frequent. Reeds has grown tired and there is not many other options. That being said, this place is not the answer. Starting with what worked, the place is cleaner than most bars, the service is passable and the decor slightly better than that of a truck stop bathroom. During my most recent visit, a non drinking lunch stop, I got the special for the day; a taco salad. This thing was terrible. It was unwashed bagged lettuce that tasted terrible, Old El Paso taco seasoning on low grade burnt meat. To round out this delicacy they tossed in Pace salsa and some sour cream. I would have said something, but they took forever cooking it and I was already pushing being late to work. The fact I spent nearly $9 to have an upset stomach all day is tragic. This is not my first experience either. My first visit was with a snarky owner telling me how great of a cook he is and how awesome of a person he is from being a young business owner. Shortly after this conversation a very intoxicated, un-attractive woman climbed on the bar and started knocking over drinks while pretending to be in Coyote Ugly... Extra helping on the ugly. I believe they were friends of the owner because he did nothing. My fiance was not impressed with this lady hitting on me. At least we know the bar is well supported. read more

Me and a group of co-workers were in Topeka for work, and we had NO IDEA where to go in Topeka KS. I mean, its Topeka KS. The closest bar to us at the time was Wellers, and we had no idea what it was like. We drove to the bar, and after the initial scope out, we drove away (as it looked a little rough). Before we left the parking lot, we decided to at least go in and look at it. We ultimately decided to give it a shot, and I am very glad we did. We had a great waitress, and even though we had a large crowd, we never went wanting anything. The beers are HUGE and crazy cheap. Needless to say, we were all feeling great before the evening was over (which was much needed due to the fact we were in Topeka, KS for work). The next night, we drove to a recommended restaurant and sat down. We decided it was too pretentious for what we were wanting, which made us miss the relaxed, feel good atmosphere of good ol' Wellers. We went back. Second night was spot on again. We had great food, HUGE beers, and another good time. Give this place a shot, and have a few beers. :) read more

Wife and I went for the Friday prime rib to celebrate an anniversary. The waitress was friendly and attentive, but the food failed to provide any 'wow' factor. Still looking for a great prime rib in Topeka, we heard the one at Weller's was above average. It was cooked properly, hers medium-rare and mine medium. It was the flavor that was lacking. Au jus and horseradish sauce were both necessary to supplement what was lacking in the cut of meat. Good, but not great. read more

We have recently started putting Weller's in our regular restaurant rotation and have always had great food. They have the best wings in town and the service is always great. I would recommend giving them try if you haven't. read more

Started off bad there was a group of intoxicated regulars at a table creating a pinch point in between it in the bar, The waitress from the other side of the room waved us to squeeze on through as the intoxicated patrons looked at us like we were inconveniencing them trying to get through! Then the waitress spilled ice water on me and my girlfriend! I got my salad the lettuce was brown around the edges, and a 2 foot hair was in my salad! At that point I called the manager over and told her I've had enough I'll pay for our drinks we're leaving!! If this place can't have basic kitchen sanitation and fresh lettuce, I don't need to eat there!! The manager comped our drinks and followed us out to our car offering us a gift card! I'm not sure if I will use it! The large group of intoxicated regulars should've been moved away from the first table that created an uneasy funnel we had to negotiate through! None of the bartenders or waitresses were wearing masks!! This place has really gone down hill!! read more

The food is generally REALLY good! Burgers are made from ground brisket instead of ground beef. And the salads and sandwiches are awesome. The price is a little high. But he food quality is good. You get what you pay for. However, the service is generally pretty awful. The servers are women in their early twenties who spend more time flirting with drunk customers than caring about their other customers and taking orders. The kitchen is managed well. But the management out on the floor is ATROCIOUS!!! If you can get past waiting forever to get drinks and your order taken you'll enjoy the food. Otherwise you're better off sitting at the bar and letting the bartender take your order. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Just wanted a baked potato. They had it and it was great! Fast service, with a smile, even though I was just ordering a $2.50 menu item. read more

Wellers Grill & Bar - Baked potato, butter and sour cream. - Bars Near Me - Topeka, Kansas

I've gone to Weller's a few times and have never been impressed. The prices are a little high and the food is not great. Last time I went, I ordered nachos. I was disappointed to find that the cheese used was nothing more than Velveeta with rotel. Some people may like that taste but I thought it was a pretty lazy way to run a kitchen. As someone who lives North of Topeka, I find it unfortunate that I have to drive all the way out to Wanamaker for a decent beer and dinner because Weller's lacks so much. read more

Food is excellent! Good menu with a nice clean atmosphere. Good views of the games on flat screens no matter where you are seated. The bar area has a number of good beers on tap. The servers are the only thing that tend to be hit or miss. Sometimes great service. Sometimes not so much. But, we do like this place. read more

I guess if you want mediocre bar food, then this place is for you. We all had a burger which is advertised as 1/2 pounds and I bet it barely weighed in at 1/3 pounds. The onion rings were probably purchased at Dillion's and their cheap version, and then their fries, oh boy, what a pile of bits and pieces. The burgers were all cooked way over done which we didn't order that way. Maybe their version of medium is burnt to a crisp. We would of asked for a redo but we were on a time schedule and we did not want to be late getting to it. All I can say is, for their prices, Wendy's has a better burger and fries. GO THERE INSTEAD OF Weller's, you will get more for your money. read more

I had the appetizer wings and fries. Again the food was ok. The service however is not so good. Improve your customer service.

Typical bar menu. Ordered a double hamburger that claims to be a full pound. It was more like two quarter pound patties. Fries were ok. Service was fine but charged for more beer than served. Claimed one person in our party had five headaches. They refused to make the bill correct. If the waitress did serve a person 160 ounces of beer they should be fired or at least offer to call a cab. Food not as described and keep an eye on your tab. read more

Wouldn't recommended this place to anyone. Was treated poorly and won't be back. The manager had a poor attitude. Apparently if you order something and are told it will be 20 minutes to come out, you can't change your mind about your order. Instead magically your order that was supposed to take 20 min will be out in 3. Instead of admitting to any wrong in the situation he'll argue with you on a review. Just know we won't be back. Which I'm sure your ok with judging by your actions. Remember word of mouth is your best representation. Hope you don't do this to others as well. read more

My Wife and I LOVE this place!!! Food is always great, wait staff know us by name, and the beer is always cold! The prime rib is out of this world!!! read more

The good, the bad, the ugly! My wife and I moved to Topeka a little over a year ago and enjoy a nice watering hole. We have frequented several local establishments and overall Topeka has some very nice locally owned places to enjoy good food and adult beverages. A couple of weeks ago I decided to stop in and check out Wellers on my way home from work. Their beer selection was very good, and I do enjoy a good craft beer. About a week later my wife and I decided to give the food a try. Service was very good, but the food was not. I am not a picky person, but I could not eat their chicken fried steak. Most chicken fried steak is very tender and can usually be cut with a fork. This was so tough and full of gristle a knife was needed followed by much chewing. So ok, ya cant have it all, right. So my thoughts were at least it seems like a nice place to stop in every now and then and get a nice cold brew. Well I decided to do this on 9-10-2014 on my way home from work. I walk through the door, locate a couple of empty bar stools, and sit down in one of them. When the bartender approached me he asked me to move to a seat at the other end of the bar. "The seats were taken." I thought oh ok, the people sitting here must be in the bathroom or something, cool no problem. Even though there was nothing on the bar such as a drink or any personal belongings. I moved and found a seat at the other end of the bar as instructed. I sat there and completely drank a very large mug of draft beer and the seat I was ask to move from, was never sat in. When I paid for my beer I informed the bar tender that it was a little upsetting that I was asked to move from a seat I was sitting in, because it was supposedly taken, and the seat had not been occupied the entire time I was there. The entire matter could have ended right then, but the bartender came across very smirk and arrogant. He informed me the seats were being used by a couple who had taken their drinks to the outside sitting area. Really, you save seats AT THE BAR for customers who take their beverages outside to consume them? So if everyone who was sitting at the bar decided to go outside to drink their beverages know body can sit at the bar? Even then, when the bar tender became aware the couple was not returning to their seats, a simple sorry bud I guess I moved you for nothing, would have been acceptable. He seemed to be preoccupied by a blonde at the end of the bar (probably an employee who was not working at the time) and playing with his cell phone, to communicate this to his customer. I spoke with the Manager and he said everything a manager should, right from the Managers 101 text book. What is missed here is if I get to a point where I complain to a manager, I am done with your establishment. I will never under the current management of this establishment return. What I am doing is addressing concerns and giving you as the manager an opportunity to fix the problems. I am sure my concerns were not received in any constructive manner that will make any difference at Wellers. I will continue to support other locally owned establishments in Topeka who HONESTLY appreciate their patrons. read more

On 1118 2016 me my husband my best friend and my sister came to the bar at wellers located on Northwest Topeka Boulevard at 10:18 p.m. we walk in and the bartender a check was very wasted she couldn't even stand up straight there was people that has a lot of people inside people standing at the back door around the back we walk in because it's my birthday my 22nd birthday. And the bartender leans over the bar like Catwoman on alcohol and says people I'm sorry we're close this is at 10:18 your website says you're open until 12 o'clock just saying it was very crappy service it was crowded I have video I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone because they close at 10:18 on a Friday night and the bartenders too drunk to do her services nor operate the building. Maybe if you're close at 10 o'clock on Friday night you should at least put that on your website because according to the website it's open till 12 I'm just saying it was really crappy and mind-blowing and kind of ruined my birthday. Until we went home and build a bonfire and had fun without going to an establishment with false advertisement in sloppy wasted staff. read more

Wellers is a great place to go for lunch or dinner. The food is pretty good except for the overabundant use of black pepper on everything. The mashed potatoes were inedible. The burgers are great! My biggest issue is with their take out service. I go there a lot for take out on Fridays. about 75% of the time the order is wrong or the steak is overcooked or too much black pepper. Last time I was there, last Friday, they were already aware that they had screwed up the last couple of times and the bartender bought me a beer and said not to worry, they were going to do it right this time........wrong. My bag came out missing the salad and with cheese all over the broccoli I ordered without cheese. I'm not sure why they continue to mess up but my advice is to always check your bags before you leave but better yet I would just dine in at Wellers. It's a good neighborhood bar with a good atmosphere and that is what we needed in North Topeka. They just aren't careful with take out. Maybe the cook needs a refresher course too. read more

Just fell into this place on a lark while staying a local Hol. Inn Exp. while riding cross country. Was so good we stopped on the way back as well. Great place. Not fancy. Good beer selection. Solid food selection including nicely done salads. Has the best Bloody Mary (the supreme Bloody Mary) I've ever had, included bacon. Wonderful spot if you're lucky enough to stop by. read more

Second time in 5 years that I ordered a Ribeye. Had a burnt taste, even though it was still rare inside, and tough the 8oz must have been barely 1/2 inch thick. Would be better to be thicker. Even though smaller. Won't ever order a steak there again read more

Called in a to go order on Feb 19. My total was 12.54. Reviewing my bank statement the charge was 17.54. When picking up I tipped the bartender $1 which I thought was sufficient for a to go order but apparently he chose to treat himself to a $5 tip on me . I called and they told me they would take $5 off my next order.We placed another order on February 25. Specifically asked the burger to be well done. The bun was bloody it was so raw. Won't be back. read more

I recently moved from Seattle to Topeka, I've been trying to find a restaurant that was worth going too more than once.
