Vogies Bar

A little hole in the wall bar on the main street of Gladstone. after seeing the reviews, I wasn’t thrilled about coming here when I my friend suggested it but. It has great old school country music playing and the drinks are great. The munchers (tater tots filled with cheese) are epic. Our waitress was good minus the fact that she forgot my friends and my drink and food order twice.

I only made this account to write a review on this place.
When I first came here It was because I was taking a walk and wanted a beer after a stressful day. The second I walked in I felt as if there were a couple guys laughing at me. I figured it was due to my seahawks Jersey being proudly displayed. I thought this because it looked like this place was the local watering hole for Greenbay fans. Whatever I ignored it and when to quinch my thirst.
I approached the little divey bar that was reminiscent of every other divey bar in town. It took a sec to get noticed but then I was helped promptly the beer I wanted was out but she had a recommendation for a beer that was ehh ok. I went and sat at a table near the guys who were laughing within ear shot, I was able to hear there conversation. a beer rep came in and they were talking about something to do with a rodeo or fair. I was able to gather that the bald man and the homely looking woman were the owners. The bald man was telling a racist or offensive story and the woman stopped him saying «hey we have customers».
I thought maybe she might be a little smarter and professional than the husband, sadly I was mistaken. She came over near my table talking to a man showing off some halloween decorations. She laughed and said how cute these little monster dolls were then, she made the comment «we need to keep these behind the bar or they will get stolen» all while staring right at me. The brown tattooed man.
At this point I was ready to leave. The rudeness, the lack of professionalism and the blanton descrimination sent me staight out the door vowing never to return.
I suggest no one ever goes here, the waitress asked me if I wanted breakfast after I over heard her 7 mins earlier talking about how the cook they had was having trouble cooking eggs and the rest of his food was coming out cold. I gracefully declined. Oh I almost forgot on top of all of this the female owner was spreading false statements about locks of love claming they make people pay for the wigs. Obviously she didn’t do her research. If the family can’t afford the hair they aren’t ask to pay but they do have a sliding scale for those who can. Sadly she miss informed the entire bar and perhaps it result in people spreading her miss information. Just a sad operation if you ask me, thats it.

Second time here and still a terrible experience. Customers glared as we walked in staff took no notice of us at all. Waited 20 minutes and left to the cardroom which even though not really happening were friendly and fast

Worst server ever (petite, dark hair pulled up). Rude, rude, rude. Unprofessional, terrible service, drama queen.
Will never go back.

Best burgers in town! Grab a beer and any burger. I love the Hawaiian burger with ham and pineapple on a patty.
I’ve never had breakfast here, but o imagine is decent given the delicious bar food in the afternoon and evening.
The well drinks aren’t weak. Very strong.
The place gets packed on Fridays and Saturdays.

i was there twice… a huge second no start chance. never again… all employees are rude crude and socially unacceptable. this means you lisa n brian… don’t try to customize your order… you won’t get it.

Good food, service was good but understaffed, poor girl was running her butt off. Only one server for 45 people.

Good cheap food. Prime rib on Fridays is always great.
Though there is a 2 $ upcharge for a tall drink.
Best value breakfast around.

Rude people. Donna is a bartender and she is mean to everyone. The staff will ignore you, unless they know you, even then it’s slow service. Will never come here again. Seriously one of the worst bars I’ve ever been to. I gave it a few chances, all three times it’s bad and jut gets worse. Don’t waste your time or money at this bar!

This place is awful!!! The people work there are rude and if your not a regular your never going to get service. There were 3 people besides our group in the bar on a Saturday night around 10 and we couldn’t even get service. We finally got some food and drinks. The food was awful and made me sick later that night yuck!

Accidently wondered into this place for breakfast, it was excellent. Service good, food great and a good price.
Went back another evening to try dinner, Service was a little slow but they were busy. The food again was excellent at a great price.
It just may become a regular place for us.

Vogie’s. First, the name is just kind of funny.” Vogies”. Secondly, I would never notice or walk into this place if it weren’t across the street from Happy Rock Coffee, and if I didn’t get the intel that they have quite a super breakfast burrito. Yes, indeed, if you go in, plop down five bucks, and wait — you will eventually be rewarded with enough eggs, sausage, potatoes and cheese to tide you over through a day of toil. YUM! If you don’t toil, and instead live lazily off of your fellow humans, exploiting their toil ad labor, and spending six months of the year in hibernation, then this burrito will help you prepare for surviving the winter. Either way.
There is just enough tension in the air to make you wonder if violence will break out over the ketchup, which, like a briskly blowing frozen wind, adds a little pep to your morning.

Used to go there about once a month for a nice night of pool. The food is quite good (for bar food). The drinks reasonable. It’s the clientele. If you go on the prime rib night, folks are behaving themselves. But on slow nights, the trolls that appear to live there (and not surprisingly never seem to have dates) play misogynistic music with obscene hateful lyrics. One song is called ‘Rape Me,” another called «Fat Girl» and the rest of the songs are laced with lyrics like «I know you think it tastes infected but I think it’s alright,» Asian hookers, «I’ll kiss your open sores,» «suck my balls all night long,» «my cock is community property,» etc. I would find it a passable comic relief if it was just one song in every dozen or so, but two continuous hours with no end in sight of this crap was more than we could stomach and we left, for the last time.
And it wasn’t an anomaly — this was the third such experience at Vogies. The first two times I was reluctant to give up an otherwise nice neighborhood hole in the wall to spend my money at and enjoy an evening, because the wait staff is super nice, the food is good, the drinks reasonable, but when the owner allows this kind of crap to permeate the atmosphere — well, I’ll not be going back again. Call us prudes, but Frank Zappa and Pork Soda would have been a refreshing walk in the park compared to the crap music played there.
If you’re a misogynist lowbrow jerk and you consider women meat to fuck and nothing more, then this place is for you.
Which is sad, because otherwise, when someone else is in charge of the music, it’s a decent joint.

Worst service anywhere. Foods good but I will never return.

I had recently heard about a place in Gladstone that served excellent, but cheap, prime rib dinners on Friday and Saturday so one Saturday morning I ventured out to find this elusive spot. I actually drove past it twice before I finally stopped. There is a really cool old fashioned looking gas station across the street that caught my eye the first time through. Then I noticed Happy Rock Coffee Roasters on the other side of the street the second time past. It didn’t help that I had no idea the name of the place nor the fact that the building is about as non-​descript as a 1950’s post office.
Once inside the place looks like a typical tavern/​sports pub. I chose a seat away from the bar and ordered one of the build-​your-​own omelettes (taco meat, pepper jack, sour cream). Everything was excellent! The price was also right at $ 6.50. The only odd thing was the waitress put the cream in my coffee before she brought it to me. On a later visit (the steak and eggs are awesome too!) I discovered that they keep the industrial sized French Vanilla Creamer behind the bar.
As another reviewer noted, the wait staff was awesome and very friendly. She told me the best time to get there on a Friday or Saturday for the Prime Rib special…$ 8.00 for one or $ 11.95 for two. Then she told me about Bingo Mondays and various other specials. I can’t wait to get back here to try their meatloaf dinner and Halibut fish and chips.
The only real drawback to the place is the lack of outdoor lighting but what do you expect from a bar?

It is what it is, a very local bar. Happy Hour 4 – 6.$ 2 for strong well drinks, full bar + jello shots. Free pool (unless you hit a ball off the table then it’s .25), video crack, open mic nights, karaōke, shuffle board, video crack, darts, juke box. It’s a typical local bar, not much diversity here… it’s Gladstone! We go about once every week or two after work for happy hour.
