I was not sure how to rate this one. The food was very good and the prices were also good. But the restaurant itself was way below average. There was a terrible smell and was pretty disgusting inside. Definitely a take out restaurant

My boyfriend and I visited the BOXCAR while visiting Stanwood. We had a good time. They are a full service bar with excellent customer service, Sports, music, karaōke COLDBEERS, mixed drinks and a FUN crowd. Taylor our bartender was quick to serve and a sweetheart! Brian the cook was great! His extra spicy chicken wings were Amazing! Mike and I will definitely be back next time we’re in town. A personal Thank you to Taylor and Brian for making our visit to Stanwood, WA a pleasant one! You guys are Awesome! Mike & Dianne :) Calif.

Loud and active on certain nights but a fun dive bar. Food is greasy but good. Taco Tuesday was a hit for date night. They were loaded with toppings and not just meat and lettuce like those offering tacos nearby. Karaōke night is Tuesday also

Waitress was very nice but they would not honor the Unilocal online coupon. The waitress felt bad. She called the owner and they denied the online Unilocal coupon! It says to print out or show the online coupon with your phone. If you want to draw customers in with a coupon then honor it!!! We say down to wat here because of the coupon! Place is very dirty also. The back access gate is literally falling off and the bathrooms are some of the worst in recent memory.

Honestly, I have never been to the«family» side of this restaurant but I have been to the bar side and it is truthfully horrible. The staff is more into their own personal drama and drinking on the job than serving good quality drinks and maintaining the cleanliness of this establishment. Both my husband and I got burgers when we went and both were beyond greasy. You couldn’t take a bite without grease soaking your entire hand. The drinks were decent. Nothing amazing but decent so that’s the one plus. For a bar, I can forgive lackluster food but I can’t stand a place where all of the workers are more into their own drama instead of working, drinking while on the clock and having loud conversations about their sex lives. Sorry but not my thing. Amendment to original review: I am upping it by two stars simply because of customer service. Upon writing this review the owner instantly messaged me and apologized and even offered a gift card. Many owners do not even take the time of day to read these reviews let alone respond; and on top of that respond in a very professional manner. So, I want to believe that I must have gone in on a very off night and things have gotten better. Maybe I will give them another shot some day of which at that time I will do a new review.

After seeing it got voted best burger in Stanwood I wanted to try it. I was thoroughly disappointed. It is a dumpy bar with frozen fried bar food. They attempted to make homemade burgers but overworked the meat so it was tough as leather, dry, and too much garlic salt. I will not be back.

Not your typical, local, dive bar. This is the southern outpost of the famous Conway Pub and is tiny and old! Food is a cut above and much the same as at the Pub. Oysters are great, I usualy get ½ fried with the light breading and ½ sauteed — the cook uses a lot of garlic with the sauteed and its really good. They go thru a lot of oysters so I don’t think they sit around too long, tasted fresh. My wife is a big fan of the Bleu Cheese burger. All burgers are very large and the fries feed two. Service has always been friendly and not overly attentive, but don’t go if you are in a hurry — tiny kitchen with a single cook who is in a Pullman-style kitchen. Hopefully there will be two servers on duty. Drinks are good, love to go there on Sundays for the Bloody Mary special. Plenty of TVs for sports fans.

The best fried oysters in the northwest. Service was also very good. We also had the New York Steak special and it was good. Great atmosphere and fun. This location is not as loud as the sister location in Conway.

Worst bar food I have ever had. I would never go back nor recommend it to anyone. It was very dirty inside. Waitress tried to charge for drinks not delivered. Then insult to injury when ordering meal asked if we wanted onion rings instead of fries but failed to mention that it would be an extra charge. I can only hope now that this meal passes through me quickly.

The Burgers are the bomb! The Oysters are first rate. The prices are reasonable. No hurt intended by my previous review, I’m into honesty!

Big tall guy, with goatee. Waitresses were cute and service was fast. Oysters made me think about things I can’t mention. If you are in Stanwood, stop by and have a beer and oyster at the Boxcar!

The Box Car is a great dive bar. These other hateful reviews are dumb and you guys need to lighten up. It is what it is, and it’s fun! It’s an old building with a lot of character, and a lot of local flavor too. Karaōke twice a week rules. The blue cheese burger is so amazing. Angel the bartender is awesome. Don’t go to a dive bar and expect 5 star service. It’s a fun place to drink and get loud.

The place was clean, i waited only a min or two for my beer. The garl woking there is great! I ordered the fish and chips, they were good! However the clam chowder tastes like it comes from a can of walmart brand chowder. :-(yuck. don’t order the chowder. The Conway restaurant is much better go their instead.

It’s one shot deal. Waitress is a joke, can’t seem to locate one beer in 22 minutes. Ordered two burgers in over crowded drunks breathing on you cramped narrow hallway of place. music too load on bad speakers. Burgers arrived 61 minutes after beer and the absolute disappearance of said waitress. Who thought fit to put her hands on my burger. Husbands burger overcooked and dry. the place is filthy and smells like old drunks and smoke. Manager gave husband a beer for the troubles and thought to make a joke of the whole thing. Folks went two weeks later and thought less of the place than I did. Thatmy friends is very bad. Funny that we love the Conway pub but will not return this dive.
