Dont Go Bacon My Heart Burger
Richard C.

I ate at another Black Sheep location 6 or 7 years ago, so when I booked a nearby hotel, I knew I'd make a short walk for an awesome burger. Black Sheep has some interesting takes on burgers. You can find something to suit your mood. The fries are enough to feed 2 or 3 people. This downtown location is in an older building that suits the burger bar style of Black Sheep. Service was on point.

Truffle and parm fries
Nathaniel H.

Fries are too die for!!!! I got the truffle and parm fries and also just the salt and pepper. 15/10 for the fries. Burgers were very good but I got the blue cheese burger and it was a ton of blue cheese almost made it to were you cant eat it bc the cheese was too strong! I wiped off some of the cheese and still ate the whole burger it was delicous! My son loved the hot doggie!! Will definitely be back.

Loaded fries with pulled pork. "You are Smokin"

Two words. Top tier!!!! Where do I begin? The vibe is great in there. Excellent decor and I love how it's set up. Has a laid back feel, but can still be a romantic experience for couples. The food is mind blowing. I ate there twice during my time passing through Springfield, and I'm disappointed I won't be able to walk through that door for a good while. The waiters are extremely helpful and very personable. You don't get the feeling that you're inconveniencing their day. On the contrary, I felt accepted and heard. The menu items are a play on words. Burgers are euphoric and the fries are absolutely delicious. You can't go wrong here with anything you choose.

Born in the USA double cheese with bacon

When you have a limited item menu you better be doing it right. Black Sheep is serving up some amazing burgers, Wagyu burgers. Cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and full of flavors. House made pickles and sauces ( the chipotle bbq may be the best I have ever had). We ordered an array of different burgers, mine was the Born in the USA- delicious. The burgers are ala'cart so we ordered to buckets of fries (reg and sweet potato) accompanied by a sample of all available sauces- did not disappoint. Service was great, friendly and made us feel right at home. Small footprint downtown with a really cool vibe to the place.

Burger and fries

I was greeted at the door and seated quickly. As a single diner, I was not forced to eat at the bar as I have bad knees and high chairs are not comfortable now onto the food probably one of the best burgers I have ever had. it was delicious. it was a single patty bacon cheeseburger. I think it was called. Don't be bacon me cry. I also had the sweet potato fries which were good and the assortment of dipping sauces made them excellent I chose a golden Road mango IPA, which I've had before overall a delicious meal and a reasonable price. Thanks to the staff at the hotel for recommending.

Salt and pepper fries with five dipping sauces.

Arriving after a cross-country flight with typical airport and airline fare, I was hungry for something decent. A good, non-chain burger sounded like just the thing, and a local recommended the Blacksheep location downtown. They have others but he said that one was the best. I found it easily enough and was pleased to see plenty of free, on street parking. I walked in and took a seat at the bar. My server came over quickly with water and a menu, which I perused after ordering the salt-and-pepper fries my acquaintance highly recommended. They came quickly, were piping hot, and accompanied by five dipping sauces: a chipotle ketchup, plain ketchup, sriracha ketchup, ranch dressing and spicy aioli. The burger was a tougher choice. They have others menu had lots of gourmet burgers with off-beat names, so one had to read a fair bit to understand what you were ordering, I had one with white American cheese, house-made pickles and butter lettuce. I had them hold the onions and mayo-based sauce which it normally came with. The griddle prepared it "smash burger " style, which meant patties that were falling apart. Add that to the juice-soaked bun and it was quite messy! Plenty of napkins required. It was very flavorful but fell short of what I'd set my mouth for, which was a more traditional burger. Plus, the menu says they cook the burgers medium-well which is more cooked than I prefer. Q On the plus side, my server was quick and friendly, and the prices were pretty reasonable. On the minus side, this location is a little on the dive-y side, so just be aware.

OMG! The burgers and fries were amazing. They were served quickly after we placed our order and they were fantastic. We ordered the Truffle and Parmesan fries and they were so delicious. Our server brought us a tray with all the sauces to try and we enjoyed them all. There were three in our party and we ordered the Foodie, The Ugly Cheeseburger, and the Hippie Jen for the vegetarian at our table. I had the Foodie and it's one of the tastiest burgers I've had in years. If you're in town, looking for a good bite to eat, check this place out. If you love burgers and fries, you won't be disappointed.

Black Sheep is a great local eat in Springfield, MO! They are known for their unique burgers and shakes. Highly recommend don't go bacon my heart burger (4oz patty, applewood smoked bacon, black diamond sharp cheddar, butter lettuce, tomato, house made pickle, onion, smoky garlic mayo) and purple haze shake (home-made blackberry pie, blackberry whiskey, frozen vanilla custard). And cheese curds are surprisingly good as well!

Garlic Truffle and Parmesan Fries and All The Sauces
Jen M.

We were on vacation and tried this place. Glad we did! I can't remember exactly what we ordered - everything has super-cutesy names that just don't stick in my head, but honestly all the burgers and sandwiches we had were delicious! Best thing though was the Parmesan truffle fries. It was a very generously-sized serving and comes with a selection of dipping sauces. Only complaint is that the burgers have a lot of toppings and are messy - which is totally fine, but it would be better if they were served on an actual plate and with a fork and knife if they can't stay in a shape that can be eaten as a burger! Service was friendly and helpful. Ambiance - it was packed and busy in there, but it wasn't overly loud. Loved the flavors, definitely recommend.

We were in town to visit Missouri State University and stop in here for lunch. Definitely a good choice. I like the modern rustic vibes of the place and it seem to be quite popular as it was packed during lunch time. We order the burgers and shared some fries. The gourmet burger was absolutely delicious as well as the truffles fried. They also have vegetarian burger option. The fries came out with several different sauces for dipping. Service was great. We were waited in my one of the nicest and sweet waitress in the Midwest.

Piña Colada
Kate M.

More adventures off Highway 44. This spot came highly recommended by fellow Yelpers, and locals alike. I'm one to always see what all of the fuss is about. There are a few locations throughout Springfield. This is the downtown location. The space is on the smaller side. We were able to snag 2 seats at the bar. Maddie was our bartender, server, and...... She was hospitable, friendly, and made excellent recommendations. The menu is fairly simple, burgers, fries, and shakes. There's a cocktail menu, full bar, and beers on tap. I decided to try their interpretation of the piña colada. This wasn't anything I have had before. It has rum and pineapple juice. Instead of coconut cream they add a generous dollop of their homemade custard. This is not a frozen cocktail, the addition of custard takes the place of coconut cream. My only suggestion is that this drink could stand to be a little colder. Otherwise l, a delicious and interesting interpretation. Burgers and fries... the beef is good quality. Buns are a beautiful toasty brioche. Additional ingredients range from cheese, bacon, and brisket along with the more traditional toppings. I went with a bacon burger and it definitely rates pretty high on the burger list. We were told Black Sheep has the BEST fries in Springfield. Well, I don't take anyone's word and decided to give the truffle and Parmesan cheese a try. Super crisp on the outside pillowy soft on the inside. Salty savory cheese and truffle were the perfect combo. The meal was filling, but I would be remiss to not try the milkshakes. We took them to go. I had Maddie surprise me and ended up with a caramel cookie dough milkshake that I have since been dreaming about. The coffee milkshake comes highly recommended by my companion. This was a fun experience with delicious food. My only complaint is that they close at 8pm! Next time I'm in town, we plan to visit again.

Shake
Melissa T H.

I thought i had posted this, but it was still in draft... This is a great place when you are craving over the top burgers and shakes! Holy moly, it's decadent in a hipster burger joint way. My teen son loved the shake (I think it was the Elvis?) and smashed his burger (too fast for me to get a photo!) and my husband and I shared a burger since we weren't feeling super hungry. Every bite was crazy good. The fries were crispy and the different sauces were fun to dip into. Service was super friendly too. We would definitely recommend, but not if one is watching one's diet... this is a splurge type of meal.

The burgers are EXCELLENT! My strategy on it was, once it's picked up, there's no setting it back down. It was a HUGE mess by the time I was done... Had to head to the bathroom to clean up my hands and face. The fries are abundant and the dipping sauces are GREAT. I'm thankful they didn't come out to early, or I wouldn't have had room for the burger. Brought the leftover fries home to warm up in the toaster oven (NOT something we normally do)! And they provide little lids to the dips, so they're home with us too! Attention to detail is important!!! The service was good and the prices seemed reasonable to us, for the quality of food that we received. OH, and that cocktail? DELICIOUS!!!

See all
