Anthony aka (Romeo) was an excellent bartender and server. He was by himself and had quite a few people to serve but yet got to everybody in a timely manner. Great place great atmosphere great food. My carney asade loaded fries we're good, but I would suggest not putting as much sauce on them. Although very tasty. The 99 cent wings on Wednesday are a great deal. They are big and tasted good. The lemon pepper, dry rub, was a great added feature to them. read more

Don't bother going to karaoke on Tuesday nights here. The DJ just likes to hear herself sing. Head straight to Billy Frogs where they are friendly and not so busy singing they have time to answering any questions you might have. read more

We're a group of flight attendants here on a layover and found out it was burger fest. We decided to give Wiley's a chance and it did not disappoint! We tried the pickle smash burger and it was definitely in the top 5 burgers I've ever had. Happy hour was a great deal, vibes were right, and the service was amazing! I also had a salad, which was a large portion and the wings which were pretty well sized! Our server, TC was so great and steered us in the right direction for drinks and apps. Thanks for the great time! read more

Everything was fine. Place was dead on a Saturday afternoon while a ton of sports games were playing, I was a little shocked by that. Maybe more of a club at night. Prices were fine, food was just your typical fried food, 1 server was definitely the lead I think the other was learning/shadowing. Probably wouldn't go back. Nothing was particularly wrong, but nothing was outstanding or even good. read more

Happy hour. Good beer very cold, perfect. I had an appetizer that was ground beef on a salad. Also very good recommended for happy hour and beyond. read more

I loved doing Latin Vibes Night on Thursdays at 8pm. The DJ was good and the people are friendly.

We went during happy hour to have burgers and beer and the burgers were very good and the prices are reasonable. The one thing that got us was that happy hour includes domestic beer but leinenkugels summer shandy was not included in this which makes no sense since it is a domestic. The service was very good and the restaurant/bar is very spacious and has a nice outside area. read more

Every weekend is consistently a good time. Friendly and professional staff and excellent music by the DJ. Highly recommended. When at Wiley's, it's always a party! read more

Another stop on the battle of the burger. The appeal of the gravy and waffles is what drew us here. The cornbread waffles were nice but seemed short in flavor. The gravy and egg were nicely done and a runny egg you can't complain. The burger is what dropped the stars. It was like chewing rubber with a boat load of pepper. My other half couldn't even stomach it. The service was ok and they kept our waters filled. The inside was dark and dreary. Has the strong odor of smoking so beware. read more

Wileys - Farmer Burger - Bars Near Me - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

I love Wileys! I'm from Arizona but this is one of the best bars in Sioux Falls. They have slot machines and free popcorn for their customers. The drinks and food are good, we usually order wings and fries. It's really spacious, they have indoor and outdoor seating. read more

first and last time here... ordered a double at 1:15... went to the restroom. by the time I came out they did last call.. fine... i asked the bouncer if I could finish my drink... I wasn't drunk or obnoxious or anything... he said no... so I had to wait outside... eventually ending up BY MYSELF, waiting on my Lyft, while people around me acted like fools. His words were, "I've been yelling at people for ten minutes to get out...." NICE. NEVER AGAIN. FUCKING ASSHOLES. read more

I'm very surprised this place has three stars overall, but I am also currently a happy drunk. But you know what else, Yelp always tells me to review things while they are fresh in my mind, haha! Well, this is my first time in Sioux Falls and I am staying at the Holiday Inn (bar closes at midnight) so decided to check this place out since it is a five minute walk and closes at 2AM! I really love the feel of this place! Came here on a Tuesday night and it was not busy. It's also a pretty huge place! I was pleasantly surprised. Food stops at 10pm, last call is about 1:45 and the bartender gets fined if you don't get the f out by 2. So get the f out. I hope I can say that on yelp. I was shocked that I paid $15 for a round for me and my two friends. Y'all draft beer, a margarita, and an old fashioned - $15 WHAAAAAT?! Currently living in Denver and would never pay that at a bar there... or anywhere else I've been really. Amazing. There was also some Tuesday special, my friend bought the round about one hour later and it only cost him $11! Now that is crazy. Super friendly bartender! So the only thing I don't like is I had a hard time finding the bathroom. Women's is labeled "L" instead of W and also there are SO MANY doors in the hall to the bathroom! Would definitely come here again, I love it! Great vibes. read more

Friday fish pitchers is a GREAT deal. 10/10 would recommend. Every time I've been here the di is subpar. can't mash music together. can't stick to a category. We need more current music. read more

Really disappointed on our first visit. Just completed the Court House museum visit and we're very thirsty. Several had recommended Wiley's (they open at 3pm). We get there about 3:15. Apparently, there was some meeting going on as no one came to help us. Finally, a bartender got us our drinks and we were very happy. Then they started some dance floor construction project, saw blaring, significant noise. We paid and left. They had all day before opening to conduct this? We won't be back. read more

Great sports bar atmosphere. Cheap drinks and friendly wait staff. We didn't order any food but it smells amazing.

Wiley's is a good time. The bar is very large and has a dance floor, dj booth and stage. There is a smoking area outside the main bar that has a fully stocked and staffed bar. There is a full menu for food and the staff was really friendly. They offer live bands and karaoke amongst other events. The drink specials are great. 2 for 1's happy hour specials all kinds of great promotions that are different every day. read more

A bit of a "dive" bar in my opinion. However, the "2fer Tuesday's" is a cool deal. A lot of booze for really cheap prices. The wait staff/bar tenders are a bit inattentive, but ok overall. Didn't eat, just drank. The free popcorn was a nice surprise. Bartender was not overly friendly. read more

Great places to smoke a cigar on a beautiful day. I did wait a little long for my beer, but they apologized for it. The food is pretty good.

Wiley's is a relatively new establishment, which is surprising, because it has the look and feel of a place that has been around forever. Original brick walls and high ceilings in an old downtown building give it a unique, yet relaxed and comfortable feel. The laid back atmosphere lends itself toward patrons with a similar attitude. They have always seemed to be an easygoing and fun-loving group. I wouldn't say that Wiley's is dead on weeknights, but they definitely aren't full. Hardly surprising, since I haven't been to a bar in Sioux Falls yet that has been busy on a weeknight, but there it is. Weekends are a different story, though. They've had good crowds on the Friday nights we've gone. It's busy enough that you may have to wait a bit to find a spot to sit, but not so full that you can't move around. It's actually about the right amount. As far as selection goes, I've seen better and I've seen worse. They have Boulevard Wheat on tap, so I'm generally happy. The service has been adequate, if not spectacular. The bartenders have been friendly and efficient, and the wait staff somewhat less so. Prices seem to be pretty standard across the board, except for weekdays from 4:00pm to 7:00pm. That's when its twofers. Twofers. Are. Awesome. It's like half price, but it forces you to have two of whatever you are getting. Trust me, that's a good thing. My only, very minor, complaint is the music tends to be a bit louder than I would want. This is just a personal preference, though, as the levels are about what you would expect. The have a couple pool tables that are almost always in use, karaoke on Thursdays (I'm pretty sure), and the occasional live band. Also, the sweetest bar bathroom I've ever visited. That counts for a lot when you are making multiple trips. All in all, Wiley's Tavern is a well rounded, enjoyable bar. read more

Went on a Sunday night for the chicken wing special. They were really good. Perfectly cooked and just the right amount of crispness. The beer was good. The service was very slow but sufficient. Would have been nice to not have to wait for beers to arrive and order. But all in all a good experience for a bar. read more

I "appreciated" the bartender telling me how to live my life and to "chill out." That we were told to wait a couple of minutes ten minutes prior had me a little upset. Still, if I wanted new your attitude, I'd live in New York. Then the bartender deduced to trash to kitchen staff. 30 minutes for a burger?When I complained about the time, he told me that I should have told them that we were in a hurry. read more

Service is terrible. I had to ask for drinks even when I first arrived. They have no idea what they are doing. They were very friendly with regulars and totally ignored me. read more

$1 drinks til 10pm, $2 drinks after that. Unheard of in Atlanta. That's what brought us into Wiley's one Thursday night, and I'm glad we went, if nothing but for the people watching. However, I wish they would have clarified that $1-2 drinks goes for ANY drink, not just well liquor. I was drinking wells all night because I thought that was all the special was good for. Boyfriend drank better stuff (by comparison), and the receipt showed everything was the same price when we closed out at the end of the evening. That information would have made the following morning a little more pleasant. All the drinks were made well, and service was good: prompt and the server knew most of our drink choices. They didn't have dark rum that night, so I couldn't get a Rum Runner. They had a DJ and dancing, where I saw a lot of people in workout clothes (also unheard of in parts of Atlanta, where people spend hours getting dolled up to go out). It made me feel like I was in the locals only place, where people grab a late night beer with friends. We grabbed a seat and just people watched all night. They have pool tables and darts in the back. You have to pay to use them though. $1/pool game, can't say how much darts are. Can't speak to how the food is because we didn't' order any. read more

Eh. I am not from here and someone reccomended this place. The food was worse than red Robin (somehow, not sure how), cheese curds were cold, burger was cold and the customer service was lacking both the customer and the service. The only reason I'm not giving one star is because the beer was okay. read more

Happy Hour is from 3pm - 7pm. 1/2 off bud, bud light, mich golden light. 1/2 off all drinks and beverages. Sweet deal to me! :)

Wiley's goes into the dive bar category for me. Some nights its bursting at the seems and no where to stand. Most Friday and Saturday nights after 9pm its 25yr olds or less who fill the dance floors.The wait in the bathroom can be a while if you're male or female. read more

Was warned by the hotel clerk that Wiley's could get rowdy but it was the closest place from the hotel and we could meet the locals. At first the bartenders seemed stand-offish but gradually warmed up and actually became very friendly. I was impressed that they had 2 Boulevard beers on tap, including Early Riser that I never see on tap even in Kansas City. The prices were incredibly cheap. We started with 2 for 1 and then after an hour of full price everything goes to $1. I certainly can see how things can get rowdy with that pricing structure. I only left because I wanted to see more bars in Sioux Falls. read more

Horrible service bartender totally ignored us. Would definitely not recommend this place it makes me never want to come to Souix Falls if this is how they treat the tourists. read more

Having been my first time in Sioux Falls, Wiley's $1 drink special was a nice introduction to the city. It seems as though this is one of the major spots downtown, so it was pretty crowded around the bar area and dance floor, but there was a nice opening back by the darts and pool tables. My friends and I had such good service with our waitress (I want to say her name was Melissa, but I think I'm wrong), and we hardly ever had to go up to the bar ourselves. My only issue was the lack of late-night food - not only at Wiley's, but in the downtown area as a whole. Wiley's wasn't serving food until midnight, like regular bars in Minneapolis do, and I didn't see this popcorn that other reviews mention. Being someone who is easily hangry, this did not bode well. Here's a plus to the aforementioned foodlessness: apparently at bar close (I didn't stick around for it), there are food carts lined up down Main for your drunchie pleasure. If I make it back, I'll be sure to check it out. Until then, check out $1 drinks at Wiley's downtown. Come full, and you'll stay happy. read more

Great atmosphere and a fun place for the weekend: plus cheap drinks. My only issue was with cleanliness. Not always the cleanest, even on less busy days. read more

As a neighbor next door I've been to Wiley's quite a few times. I really like this bar and outside of Buck's (which I despise for various reasons) is probably the most popular bar in Sioux Falls at the moment. For as busy as they often are Thursday - Saturday they do the best job they can for service. The set up of the bar helps cater to efficient service. They have a full bar and great drink specials. Thursdays are $1 drinks from 8-10 and $2 drinks from 10-12. Fridays they have $10 fishbowls. Monday nights they have 1/2 price off appetizers and $5 pitchers. The food isn't amazing but definitely hits the spot for just being bar food. The nachos are pretty good. In addition they often have live entertainment with bands, and if not they almost always have a live DJ. If looking for a fun night out with good specials I highly suggest heading downtown and checking it out. read more

Worst customer service. Waited 20 min just to get acknowledge.. when I called in to complain the "manager" was unapologetic.. a shame.

Was in Wileys last night sitting near the exit. At just about closing time I see a guy about 5'8' walking to the door talking to a bouncer. All of a sudden there were 4 huge dudes tackling the small guy and cuffing him. The small guy was not yelling or making a scene. Apparently you can't talk to bouncers are Wileys, if you do you'll be gang tackled by their bouncer squad. I usually come here when I am in Sioux Falls on business. I think I'll find another spot. read more

Perfect location! Great place to watch sporting events and enjoy live bands. Good food & beer selections. Perfect for large groups and family events. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. read more

On a quick weekend trip to Sioux Falls, stopped in here to watch our Ohio football teams play. Great selection of beers on tap, and the burgers were fantastic! With several options to customize your meal (e.g. beef, chicken or bison, change up the cheeses, etc), there are plenty of options. The bison chili was delicious on top of a grilled chicken breast with smoked gouda cheese. And let's not forget the sweet potato fries, thin and super crispy, seasoned perfectly. Plenty of TVs around the bar and entire restaurant area, the bartenders were quick and willing to put our games on (they have Direct TV package) read more

Lol where do I even start with this place? Every time I've gone here, it's been a Friday or Saturday night past 12am. I've been asked to have a threesome with two 40 year old women, my boss (yes, my authoritative figure) got us kicked out of here on my bachelorette party night for going in the men's bathroom, I've almost died from secondhand smoke in the back room, I've danced with a girl in a wheelchair who insisted I give her a lap dance, and I've almost gotten punched in the face because I bumped someone who was playing pool. Oh and the sheer amount of times I've been hit on by drunkaf men in camo... This place will always have a dirty, sticky, drunk place in my heart. read more

This place is fine until you have to deal with their staff or want to use the jukebox. It was a Monday night and I put $20 bucks into the jukebox and played a bunch of songs, Phoenix, The Strokes, Replacements, and generally critically acclaimed music. One by one my songs were skipped and when I asked the bartender he told me they skipped music that wasn't top 40. Oh and when I became a little angry about my $20 dollars going down the drain for not playing Bieber the dude slides a dollar on the table and walks away. He also told me Wiley's wants to attract a certain clientele which is apparently twats. Back to Tommy Jacks. read more

Least friendly bar I've been to in years. No staff smiling, bartender griped about me asking what was on the taps. I felt like apologizing for bothering them with my patronage as I left, but I think the humor would have been lost on them.Go to Monk's House of Ale Repute if you're in Sioux Falls instead, much better selection and definitely friendlier service. read more

They had pretty good specials but after 11pm to try to get a water from the tall bearded bartender was a joke. He passed over me 6 times. Very bad service. read more

Okay bar. Early evening drinks are fairly reasonable. Later at night fairly expensive for Sioux Falls.
