Blackstone Gastropub is a gem of a restaurant. We stopped by for lunch yesterday and what a great experience. We were greeted at the door by CJ who turned out to be our server and she was great. We started off with the Candied Pork Belly. The combination of the pork belly, peach ginger jam and the tang of the brussels sprout slaw was like a happy dance on the tongue. My husband had the Andy Reid with a side of shaved and fried brussels sprouts. Loved them both. I had the fried cod sandwich. The cod was lightly beer battered and it all came together with the lettuce, tomato, diced pickle and the star the homemade remoulade sauce. CJ told us the sauces are homemade and you can tell they're that good. We finished our meal with the smoked fruit cobbler with apples and peaches. I never thought of the combination of apples and peaches together, but it works. We will be back on our next visit to Joplin. read more

My first time at this restaurant. We had an absolutely GREAT experience!! The food was personalized to their establishment and spot on! Had a nice interaction with the Manager. But our server, Leah, stole the show!! Highly recommend... read more

Christmas Eve dinner was on point. For appetizer can't go wrong ordering the poutine fries. We also tried the Gouda fondue served with fried naan that was absolutely amazing! For dinner we shared the burnt ends. One of ordered with a gratin potato's and one of ordered with macaroni and cheese.so we could all try both. Very filling and delicious! read more

We had a lovely evening with our little girls at this tasty eatery! Although the dining area had a draft and that made it a lil chilly... from the door being opened frequently, although I do love that a local place is getting lots of love! We had a variety of dishes that we all enjoyed, and our server was great. He checked in frequently enough but not too often, and our drinks were never empty. Were I to find myself in Joplin for any reason, I'd eat here again for sure and I would recommend it even if you're stopping through. read more

The "manager" came outside and yelled at a table near us because they sent their drink back. It was insane! I have never seen anything like it. We asked the server and he said she is friends with the owner/kind of a part owner. Everyone on the patio started talking about how crazy it was. I went inside to use the restroom and she started talking bad about me to the other bartender because I didn't want to use the men's bathroom. The whole time I was in the restroom I could hear her. She was insanely rude. read more

Blackstone Gastropub in Joplin, been there a few times. However tonight the waiter had excellent service however, we ordered a drink that was not so great. We politely if they could try to adjust the drink. When it came back it basically tasted the same... this time we sent it back and asked for it to be taken off the ticket. The waiter obliged us. The next thing we know some lady named Maddi came out and very rudely asked why we sent it back. Priscilla was trying to answer and Maddi cut her off mid sentence and said she basically didnt have time to listen. The waiter apologized for the bartender who claimed to be an owner of the establishment. I asked to talk to the manager. The same lady Maddi came out and wanted to know what the issue was. Once again we were met with same rude, loud outburst. This happened in front of a full patio of about 14 people including students, couples and people who saw the first outburst and left, who were from out of town. Stating they would not be coming back. Anyways... just my thoughts... the worst interaction with an owner/bartender ever. read more

I love coming to place when I get a chance. Recently got back home from Alabama and this was my first choice. I had their burger of the month. Can't remember the name of the burger but it was amazing. Service is always on point and I actually got to eat outside on their patio. Beautiful place. read more

I let Mrs. K. do the searching for tonight's dinner and it was a winner. She picked Blackstone to have dinner with our daughter and her roommate. We were warmly welcomed and brought to a table. Our waiter was attentive at taking orders, answering questions and refilling drinks. We started with the charcuterie tray which was a nice mix of cheeses and meats and pickles. Plenty for the carnivores and the vegetarians at the table. My wife had the fish and chips. A big portion of crispy fish and half of it came home. I chose the brisket burger which was a big patty and a thick slice of brisket, upgrading to the mac & cheese for a side. With the big appetizer, half of this also came home and was the next day's lunch. Blackstone has a nice selection of beers and other drinks. We had no trouble picking some delightful frosty adult beverages and enjoyed our evening here. Great service, not too expensive, a lovely meal. I'd return to Blackstone Gastropub!

The food was delicious. We had the Andy Reid Sandwich. Smoked porter house chilli, chipotle chicken soup. The waitress was fast and diligent. The noise was low enough my wife was able to hear her 90 year old mother who whispers a lot. read more

Had a fantastic experience at Blackstone Gastropub. Our server, Gadge, was knowledgeable about the drinks and food. Food was amazing!! Highly recommend the burnt ends and the chicken tendies and waffles! You will not be disappointed!! read more

This place deserves more than a 5 star rating for service and food! Took my wife here for date night and being new to town this place rocked our world. It was busy, had great decor on the walls and our bartender was spectacular!! Wife and I got their Fried Brussels for an appetizer and after one bite it was hard for us not to snarf it all down. We both got the Meat Sweats for our entree, I got the "hangry" version (larger portions) and once again we were mesmerized by the amazing flavors of this dish! Candied pork belly in mac and cheese FTW! I will definitely be back soon! read more

Wow! Wow! Wow! What an amazing surprise. The outside doesn't look like much but the interior was super clean and fun. Staff was all super nice and welcoming. We were traveling through Joplin and stopped here for lunch based on Yelp reviews and shame on me for not taking more pics of our food! Presentation was perfect and made me think I was some place way more expensive. Levi was our server and he was great, funny, a good salesman, and all his recommendations were on point. We had the salmon, Ozark Sandwich and the Siracha Smash Burger. All had great combinations of flavor and were well balanced. I wish this was closer to home become we'd be a regular here! p.s. grab some pork rinds they are a great treat! read more

This could be five stars, but I'll wait to give it 5 until I return. I sat at the bar and the bartender was engaging, fun, and very attentive. The Nashville hot mac and cheese (not on the menu but offered as a special) was excellent, and the bacon vinaigrette was good as well. I visit Joplin about 2-3 times a year for work, and I'll definitely be back and update accordingly. read more

We were driving through St. Louis and decided to stop by! It was my first time having poutine fries and they were amazing! Favorite thing on the menu. I got the flagship and my husband ordered the special which was a patty melt. I took a bite of his and the bread was so crispy and delicious! I enjoyed mine as well. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Great service. Would definitely come back for those fries! read more

Great place to eat in Joplin, MO. Try the Charcuterie or the High Roller. They have a great Smokey Old Fashioned as well.

This place is amazing. Chicharrones instead of fries. A wedge salad to die for and a great draft selection. Highly recommend the Hands Peanut Butter and banana Stout. It really delivers those flavors! I had fish and chips and as always it is great! The wings are full on wings and my husband is in heaven! read more

Closed early because it's winter and it's slow ?on March 5 8:50 waitress was super rude and short when in this we asked to sit at the bar I explained that it was my wife's birthday and she gave zero F$&@s. Then basically told us to hurry up and order our drinks cause they close soon we were polite and said oh our apologies we saw your website.... Before we could finish, she cut us off to give us another snarky comment about how it's winter and it's slow and they close early. Not a nice lady at all. We came here last year for my wife's birthday and the waitress was great. Don't know what happened . Don't know when these new rules changed. I would ask for a little bit more grace when explaining the situation definitely put a bad taste in our mouth. Def bad experience. read more

Nice beer selection. I enjoyed a smash burger, it was fantastic! My husband enjoyed the buffalo chicken sandwich, it was tender and very flavorful. The chicken breast itself was small, that is my only negative. Restaurant and bathrooms were clean. Staff was amazing and attentive. Liv was our waitress. read more

Took a chance while driving through and we've had to revisit since. I can't even recall what else we ordered because the gnocchi is all I can remember. It's only a side dish but it's that memorable. It's served with a pesto Parmesan cream that we've tried without luck to recreate at home. Also the pops of goat cheese were the best addition. Pretty sure we got a burger and the poutine, which was also very good. read more

Came here for mid-day drinks and a little snack before birthday shopping and wow! Cold beers, great vibes, amazing pulled pork nachos and amazing pork belly! Thank you for great service! Maddie and Zach both provided amazing service! read more

Everything was great. Good food good service. It was a fun evening. Happy new year.

Food was amazing! Andy Reid & Alabama Sammy were righteous ! Fries were perfect & fried Brussels were delicious. We were traveling through Joplin & dropped in for dinner. Lucky us!! Cherry on top was our waiter, LEVI!! Highly recommend you ask for LEVI read more

On way from STL to Tulsa. I always try to find great food on road trips. Read many positive reviews about this place so decided to stop with family of four. 3pm on a Tuesday was great time as not busy at all. Seated right away. VERY friendly team of folks working there. Food was incredible. Got the fondue to start. **Chefs kiss** Entrees ordered = Fat Mac, The Ozark, Caesar chicken salad, and the sandwich of the month which was a smoked jalapeño meatloaf bacon wrapped. Everything was delicious. I am a fool to have ordered a salad as an entree. I finished off some burnt ends from the Ozark as my son was too full. The artwork is amazing. There is a beautiful painting of Prince for sale I was eyeballing. Overall experience was a 5. Will be back when we come through Joplin anytime. read more

Excellent food! We had pork belly with broccoli slaw as an appetizer which was melt in your mouth with a light bourbon glaze that left a great mouth feel. For entree my husband and I both ordered burnt ends, sautéed vegetables, su gratin potatoes served in a cast iron skillet plus a house salad and Caesar salad. Oh forgot the pork belly had a peach ginger jam as dipping sauce which was so good my husband requested more for his salad dressing. Not one item was a disappointment. EVERYTHING WAS EXCELLENT. Including the service by Liv and the other employees were smiling moving fast and happy to help. A great dining experience. We've eaten here many times and we've never had a complaint but this Saturday afternoon was exceptional. Which was extra nice as this was our 56th anniversary dinner. So great job Blackstone! read more

I've never had a bad meal here. I love the fish and chips and the gravy fries. The appetitizers are good and they have a variety. Always good service and clean environment. read more

I am a Buffalo wing enthusiast & traditionalist. Buffalo Hot please. Absolutely no dry rubs or exotic flavorings please. I have, for about 15 years, been looking for wings in this area that are as good as what I find on the East Coast- until today I was disappointed time & time again. Blackstone finally made my dreams come true! Their wings aren't Duffs/Anchor Bar traditional Buffalo wings; But their smoked then fried Buffalo style is amazing nonetheless! This will bring me back regularly from here on out. Thank you Blackstone! read more

I always look at Yelp reviews when I'm in a city I'm not familiar with. Blackstone had great reviews, so we stopped by after a baseball game before driving home. The first table they sat us at had ketchup and something else sticky all over the floor where our feet were. We had to move to another table. The booths were pretty tight, so we put a chair at the end and they told us we couldn't due to fire code. Ok, but it didn't make for a comfortable seating situation. We made it work. The food was very good (which is why they have a 3-start review), but the service wasn't great. We had to chase down our server several times. Finally, the manager jumped in (I think she was also bartending), and she was amazing. The food is great, but the service just needs some work. read more

Oh my Lord, this place is amazing! The food was phenomenal and the service was out of this world! Everything we ate made my mouth explode with excitement! Get here as soon as you can!! read more

Blackstone gastropub is by far my favorite place. Every time I'm in Joplin I visit, and it has never disappointed me. I had the special for lunch, cashew chicken and waffles. There is always an inventive twist to all their food. The chicken and waffles had a sauce that you were expecting a sweet maple syrup flavor, but it was savory with just a hint of sweetness. I make a point to talk to the chef if I am amazed and every trip finds me in the back with the chef discussing the meal. Another wonderful attribute to blackstone is the staff. They are full of energy and very noticeably happy which can't help translate to the guests. If I had one ounce of the energy Maddie has, I could solve world hunger. Levi is great too, I sat at the bar and he took good care of me. I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

The food is amazing with a modern flare. Never had anything bad from this place! Service is always great and friendly too. Highly recommend!

Delicious! My husband LOVED the mussels, didn't get a pic of those! The pimento cheese and onion jam smash burger was great but definitely could have used an entire side of the pimento cheese. The Naanchos sounded so interesting, we're VERY crisp and I'm not personally big on BBQ but overall it was tasty. Even the Caesar salad was delicious and we were a party of 10 - and everyone made alterations to their meals they were very accommodating. The staff was so sweet and every one of us enjoyed our food! Since our party was so big we ate outside and it was nice but I'd love if they had more indoor space but I loved the fun decor. read more
