What a great visit to Big Red's while we stopped over in Norfolk! Very lively sports bar with…read morepersonal televisions in each booth! We weren't there for sports, we were there for lunch; however, we definitely took notice that it would indeed be the place to go for sports. A group of five of us, seated at a table and the only reason I'm docking a star is because we were seated just a few feet away from the Keno ball machine and it was quite unpleasant when it was running, which was during most of our visit. Excellent burgers, pork tenderloin sandwich, hand breaded chicken strips, fries & tater tots! Not a morsel left on anyone's plate! Our service was wonderful and attentive, we were checked in several times and beverages refilled often. We will definitely be back when we return to Norfolk!

We went to have dinner and a few beers. Our waiter was exceptional. However the restaurant…read moreoperations leave the ability do waitstaff to do their job very limited. It really painted a poor picture of the bar. First, when you walk in there appears to be a wide variety of beers and a well stocked bar. However, the bar doesn't provide a printed beer menu nor does it have a QR code one can scan to see the selection. No waitstaff member should be expected to remember the selection of beers, especially since there were some smaller breweries, in theory, represented. I travel a lot, here and abroad and this was the first time I'd ever experienced something this poor. Our guests decided to have martinis after the meal. What should've been a standard order (Grey Goose dirty martinis) was near impossible to get. Our poor waiter had to twice return to our table to tell us the bar didn't have Grey Goose nor did it have vermouth. These are not rare or exceptional things used one in a while in a bar. Grey Goose is a standard upsell from well vodka; and to not have vermouth tells me inventory management is shoddy. We also found out that there were a large number of managers on shift. My experience has been that when a restaurant manager sees or knows one of their waitstaff is struggling due to the restaurant's shortcomings; that manager comes to the table and apologizes. Our poor waiter was constantly stuck as the bearer of bad news and it really was a very poor look for what could be a much better bar experience based upon the interior. Tragically this is one of the few places open on Sunday in Norfolk so you're captive to this bar or fast food when visiting here. We won't be back. This model of business doesn't deserve nor earn success. It negated any promise of value the food may have provided.

My husband and I were looking for a place to eat after arriving up in Yankton to go camping, and…read moredidn't want to grill up anything late. So we found this place on Yelp, and decided to give it a try. When we first pulled up we honestly thought about turning away and going somewhere else. It is a little hole in the wall place and doesn't look very convincing. However, I am glad we gave it a chance! When you walk in, you actually go down stairs and the bar is down there. It is a surprisingly huge place and everything is very spread out. They had the bar in the corner and places to sit and pool tables, and darts and stuff like that. Our waiter was quick to get our drink order, but took him awhile to come back and get our food order. The menu itself isn't very big. However they have a great burger selection. If you want to add it they have it. I could have put everything from bacon, avocado, a fried egg and many other options on my burger. I had a pretty basic cheeseburger with tater tots and I was impressed. I also was really hunger, but it hit the spot. My husband really enjoyed his burger with the fried egg on it as well. You can also order a beer boot, for a decent price here. Naturally my husband had to enjoy this huge beer boot. We ended up bringing some friends back here for drinks the next night. It is a good place to eat, the food is good and there is plenty of room for a big party. We had about 10 people our second trip in. The service needs a little bit of work, but thankfully we were there at slow times. I'd be a little nervous to go there during a husker game or really busy time. They did have several TVs everywhere to watch whatever game you wanted, and the remotes were right there if you wanted to change it. I will be coming back next summer when we are up there camping. On a side not, They also have a wings and a huge selection of wings. IT reminded me of BWW's selection. I will probably try them next time!

If I could rate this zero I would. The first time I came in here the service was terrible the food…read moreis decent but really expensive especially for bar food. The second time I came in the service was better but they overcharged my card. The bill was 49 dollars and she charged my card 40 dollars after I asked her to only charge 28 and I gave her 34 dollars in cash including a 12 dollar tip. Absolutely insane and unacceptable.

It's been many years since I've been back, and I was so sad to see that they really haven't kept the restaurant up very well. While traveling on business, I thought I would grab some lunch and work on a project. A hostess offered to seat me, but became quickly confused about exactly where to put me and we ended up walking to several areas of the restaurant that had empty tables before she was able to get some assistance and find the right booth for me to sit in. Unfortunately, they do not have Wi-Fi so I wasn't able to stay. I would have ordered their classic "French Cheesy" sandwich which sells for only $4.50 (it is sold a la carte, as all of the sandwiches are). Much of the menu is fried, although they do offer a salad. I choose to keep my nice memories of the granary as a fun, family-friendly place to eat. I was really sad to see that it had aged so much. I hope that it's current owners, or anyone who takes it over in the future will opt to redo the interior & give it the love that it needs. It's meant to feel warm and homey. This has definitely been a treasured restaurant in Norfolk for many years and it deserves to be taken care of.
