    Small and simple bar area

    By their own words, this is the only place that serves you open after 2pm in Kimball. By my words, this one place beats out anything you might find in Cheyenne. At least if you're like me and you like local down-to-earth places, full of friendly locals. I chatted with the bartender Ashley for awhile and we had a great time. Believe it or not, this is the first time in three tries I've actually found nice people in Nebraska! Should've come from the west instead of the east this whole time! Drinks: No tap. There, I said it. That's the loathing part. They do have a good selection of bottles including local brews, and a secret $1 off per beer if you get two. (Whoops, not a secret anymore!) I enjoyed my Nebraska OSO. Food: My goodness. I was watching the chef make the food (next to the bar) and it seemed to be taking quite awhile. Was my food going to be cold? Were these other people's orders too? Well, the burger came out just fine and let me tell you, wow. The buffalo, per Ashley, is local - only 14 miles from farm to pub. The taste of everything together is just overwhelmingly homemade. I was worried when I saw the freezer full of certain apps, but you won't go wrong with the buffalo burger - or the Rocky Mountain Oyster burger! (I've had them before so I didn't, but I'm pleasantly surprised to see them outside Colorado. Ashley loves them and if you've never had, go for it!) Atmosphere: So local. So homey but welcoming, which often isn't the vibe for local places. You get a nice little downtown to explore for 10 minutes and then you get this nice little place to explore. I was even offered to join their pool tournament! As an admitted outsider! Hence why I said I finally found part of Nebraska I like. So that makes the 5 stars a slam dunk here. There's TVs, music, just... anything you want, it's here. You'll be at home. Come home to Kimball.

    Loving this place! Came from Lake Oliver and needed some quick food and a drink! Nate was the bartender and was awesome with service, food is frozen but so much better than anywhere else around here. Fun vibes, sexy bartender. Chalk all over the bathrooms, super awesome. Nothing on draft but local can selection! Gambling machines and touch tunes juke box

    Excellent burgers made by Nate

    We drove over from Cheyenne to visit Nebraska just to knock off another state. We decided to hit up Beer and Loathing as it was raining and didn't have many options for sightseeing. The town of Kimball was essentially shut down except for this bar downtown. We walked in and were greeted by one of the owners, Nate. He was pleasant and helpful and we had so many questions about the area. The locals were friendly and the bar was really pretty cool. The decor was unique and Heather, one of the other owners, had done the bar and the walls with beer caps. Clearly the owners are proud of the hard work and they have great customer service in mind as well. The beer was cold and the burgers were delicious. A unique experience for a couple from Alabama.

    Before passing through town we googled restaurants in Ault and and Ugly Pony came up so we looked…read moreat their menu and saw gluten free options. Being celiac, it's difficult to find restaurants in small towns that offer gf food so we were really excited. First impressions when walking in was it was a cute, clean, welcoming atmosphere with a beautiful bar, pool tables and football games on tv. Now to the menu...wow! The options were amazing! I have never had chicken and waffles and was so excited so I ordered them (I got a half portion which was more like a 1/4 portion...so I'll order the full next time). All the food is made to order so it takes a little longer to get your meal but it is definitely worth it! The waffle was crisp but soft, the chicken was beautifully breaded and was so moist when the bacon jam was a perfect addition! The maple syrup was warm and sticky and perfect. My friend ordered a grilled cheese sandwich and commented that the tomato tasted like it came out of her grandmas garden. The fries were perfectly crispy and not soggy at all. The owners husband was amazing and shared awesome things about how they source the food, how they bring their heritage into the restaurant and recipes. He and his family are all gluten free and he cooks like he wants to eat! The only thing I'd recommend (and if you're celiac, you should already know) is to simply reiterate that you are celiac as some menu items aren't gf. We will purposely be driving through Ault again, just to go to Ugly Pony!

    Amazing food and service even has Gluten Free Options and all options are delicious . Service was…read moreexcellent and very quick

I stopped in with my brother to meet with his friends and got tanked! Absolutely tanked! I hit on the waitress, I hit on my brother's friends, HELL I think I hit on my brother too! LOL!! Prior to cracking open my first of many beers, I had their wings, which like most small bars, are frozen, probably precooked (served real quick) but I must point out that they were good. So I give that 3 stars. The staff were great at 4 stars. Friendly and on top of things. The decor is about 2 stars but gets lost after mingling with the patrons. Now the important question: Do I recommend?? YES but you can't be a wallflower!

Last time I was there I was over served and made an ass out of myself particularly because the bartender free poored penelton out of a 1 liter bottle with no spout. The drinks were strong and I got so drunk I had trouble holding my head up. I was gauging how much i was drinking by past experience of drinking accurately poored drinks. This wasn't the bartenders fault but the use of 1 liter bottles is impossible to poor accurately especially without a pour spout or jiggers. This bar is popular with bikers on runs to biker events. During the summer it is likely you will see a large amount of motorcycles outside and the bar will be packed. The staff are friendly for the most part. Keno available.
