Sonny’s Tavern

Damn I love this place! It’s a darn good thing it’s too far from home to frequent, because I would eat a stumpy burger every single day. Then they would call my short fat ass Stumpy Man.
It ain’t gonna make Food Network for amazing and creative fare. No one driving by is gonna say, «WOW! I NEED to go there. It looks so inviting and interesting.» And if they do go in… they ain’t gonna take home any interior design ideas.
BUT…They will have pretty good service, a decent selection of adult beverages, and pound packing dive-​bar food all at a great value.
You really have to try the stumpy burger. The classic and the flame thrower are my favorites, but they also have a Skippy stumpy burger and one other I can’t remember. Listen. I can’t explain WHY I love them so much. It’s a blend of the texture, the taste, and the value I suppose.
Give’em a try!

My co-​workers an I come in from time to time for lunch. The staff is always very friendly and helpful. Their food prices are amazing! I suggest trying the stumpy burgers!

I love the atmosphere but the bartender tonight was just completely rude and acted like she did not want to do her job makes me not want to be here

Met the owner last night. Decided to come tonight for dinner. I’m not disappointed. Good beer, good prices and friendly service !

Had a nice time with friends here for a karaōke night. They have a pretty large selection, and although it was a little quiet, there was non-​stop singing. Their beer selection is not very exciting, but I had a good cocktail.
In addition to karaōke, they have a number of arcade games, right in the main area so you don’t feel too isolated from your friends, as well as some pool tables! We arrived a little late for food, but our friends recommend the Rueben pizza.

My wife and I dropped in on this great little bar a few nights ago and I think we will be there again. Great service, and oddly enough, they make a deliciously interesting pizza: salami, sauerkraut, and cheese. Sort of like a Reuben pizza!

My husband and I were in the area and looking for a place to grab a drink and some dinner. When we walked through the [sketchy, no-​window, strip club feel] door, we immediately looked to see if there was anything on tap. We almost walked out – they had 4 beers on tap – but the waitress was super friendly. She was telling another patron that the pizza oven was warming up which got my husband’s attention. We never even looked at the menu – the waitress recommended a reuben-​like pizza, which is what we got, with a pitcher of beer. The place was a little chilly, but that’s just me being nit-​picky.
There were plenty of pool tables, darts, video poker machines, and big screen tvs to keep us entertained. We LOVED the pizza. It was absolutely perfect bar food to go with some beers. So glad we stopped in to this joint!

The people are friendly, the service and servers are great. I’ve been going for .75 taco nite, for a beer and couple of tacos. It’s a good happy hour to drop in on every couple of weeks.

Good food. Good prices. Good service! Need I say more.

Great place! Cheap drinks, pool tables, dart boards, music, and a helpful staff!
I was in Springfield for business last week and was having a difficult time finding a bar/​tavern that was open late (2:00am) on a Monday night. Sonny’s stayed open until 2:15am even though there was only myself and three friends in the bar. The bartender was constantly coming by our table to check on us! Excellent service!
