Came in on Derby Day in the middle of little league baseball season and only saw a few tables open so found a spot and was given a menu pretty quickly. For being a pub, I was shocked by the amount of unique items that they had like the crab rangoon dip which was sooooo GREAT! The wonton chips were a great touch and made you feel like you were making crab rangoon. I had the pork tenderloin which was pretty good. Nothing too crazy but I enjoyed it. It was served with a chipotle mayo which I was not really a fan of. I upgraded to the onion rings and those were breaded nicely and came out tasting pretty fresh. Food was pretty nicely priced and came out pretty quick. The pub feels pretty cozy and seems like a great place to spend a while with friends catching up in downtown Ashland or a nice place to spend a while watching sports. read more

Great restaurant downtown Ashland! Your typical sports bar feel, but with some fun and unique menu items! We started off with the crab Rangoon dip, oh wowza that was good and the wonton chips I could have eaten all night long! The wings, ehh, not my jam, idk what it was! Service was great, food was on the slower side, but it was Derby Day and not a table was empty in there the entire time we were there, they were bumping along great! read more

Cozy little atmosphere!! Waitress was newer but so sweet, helpful and friendly! Even with it crazy busy (all tables full) I thought it was relatively quick... the man that ended up bringing our food; walked away at first so it could've been hotter but the flavors and taste was AMAZING!! We both were super happy with our meals and for what you get the price is very reasonable! Try it!!!! read more

Smothered chicken! Stopped in for dinner with friends while passing through on a cross country trip. This place has a bar vibe with music playing in the background at a reasonable volume. Our server was very helpful, attentive and kind. We had cheese curd and firecracker shrimp appetizers that came out quickly and were both very good. Our entrees took a bit of time but were worth the wait. I had the smothered chicken with cheddar and pepper jack cheese it had red peppers, mushrooms and onions that were grilled and smothered on top of the chicken breasts with melted cheese. The chicken was moist and tasty. My wife had the chicken fried chicken which had a super crispy breading and served with a white pepper gravy that were a great combination. We would eat here again if in the area. read more

Great food, great vibes! A very casual dining experience with friendly and fast service. The spicy fried pickle spheres were amazing; the breading stayed crispy and their homemade ranch was 10/10. The wings were smoked to perfection. The burger was juicy and cheesy. The lettuce used on the burger and salad was just as great as advertised!! read more

We had lunch at BW's on Saturday. They were super busy but the staff kept up with the crowd, and our service was excellent. It was a lively and fun atmosphere. My Reuben was superb as was my wife's pork tenderloin sandwich. We will definitely be back. And it's a short walk to BlueJays ice cream shop. read more

Add the all-American burger and my son had the Reuben and everything was great. The service was excellent. Couldn't ask for a better place.

Food and service were both excellent! Our waitress was incredibly nice! The tenderloin is huge and the baked beans have really good flavor! We will definitely be back when we are in town again!! read more

Great food and great service. Rachel was amazing. Made us feel right at home. Prices were fair. Highly recommend.

On our recent vacation to Nebraska, we were staying over at Mahoney State Park and decided to roam into Ashland to get some dinner. Found this cute little pub place downtown and decided to give it a shot. Ended up being really fun! They run keno all day, so we played a bit of that while we waited for our food. They had several beers on tap as well as by bottle. I ended up ordering a burger with onion rings -- and man, those onion rings were tasty! Burger was cooked to order and filling. My kiddo ordered the salmon plate, which I wasn't sure about given that it's Nebraska and land-locked, but he got a tasty piece of fish with green beans and a fresh salad. Ended up destroying it. Overall, this was a good dining experience - service was nice, and the decor is chill pub vibe. You can't really go wrong unless you're looking for something super fancy. read more

Stopped in the great small downtown of Ashland. Typically we drop in to our favorite bakery/coffee shop across the street but we were later in the day. BW's is a causal pub and grill, a variety of things on the menu. We had the taco salad, Ruben and kids had chicken strips and tots. Tots were better than the fries. Our friend had the BW bomb, probably one the best things on the menu with a variety of BBQ on the massive sandwich. We would pass on the fried cheese curds. Nothing worth noting. Ruben was a bit dry but decent, I prefer more kraut, but wouldn't necessarily turn anyone away from it. Taco salad presented well, but was lacking in depth of flavors, became a muddled mess at the end. Kids liked their chicken, which was a bonus to not have to search for something they liked. Service was attentive, polite and nice. Occasional check-ins and prompt with the check. We will be back, because it is one a few easy places to feed the family as we come to town to visit friends over at Linoma. Give it a try! read more

Small family oriented pub and grill nestled in downtown Ashland. We should have taken photos when we got the food but we didn't give it a chance! We dug right in!! This place is fabulous. Fresh cooked REAL food, friendly people and a comfortable easy atmosphere. We will definitely be eating here again. I ordered the shrimp basket, my daughter had the chicken tender basked and my husband had a cheeseburger with fries. No complaints on anything! Flavor was great and the food was hot! read more

I came in with a very large group without notice. We were not able to get into another location because of our size and BW's took us in with open arms. We were only stopping by for drinks and all the staff made sure we were well taken care of and never made us feel like we were an inconvenience. The bartenders did a great drop with serving everything from beer, spirts, and mocktails. The food I saw come out looked and smelled amazing! It is a large and spacious bar. I definitely could come back for more food and drink another time. Thank you again for taking in 20+ ladies unexpectedly, like champs. Great service here and worth stopping in for just that. read more

Great bar and grill. Drinks were good priced, food was good and priced fairly as well. Staff was friendly!

Amazing food. Great selection of food and beer. Friendly service and. Great prices... Highly recommended... read more

Best bar food - consistently good. Awesome staff! The best burgers, and best onion rings I've ever had! Make sure you get the sauce that comes with them! Definitely go if you're in the area! read more

Great food, friendly staff, cold beer and a small town bar vibe. All the food is great but I particularly enjoy their cheese curds and wings. read more

Love the Rueben, I always ask for extra kraut :) and it never disappoints, it is real shredded corn beef not sliced lunch meat... My son had the pork tenderloin and it was delicious and huge, it is hand tenderized and breaded. Grand kids had pizza and boneless wings - We had the onion rings as an appetizer and they are wonderful! Amazing food!! Worth the drive to Ashland and he just opened a place in Louisville called "Main Street Grub" read more

BW's Pub & Grill - Best Rueben... So good - Barbeque Near Me - Ashland, Nebraska

Really frustrated with my experience today. Ordered an appetizer for pick up. When I got there I asked for a side of nacho cheese and paid extra for it(no problem there). The waitress informed me it would be a bit. Left after waiting 10 mins for a cheese cup I paid extra for only to find that my fried gizzards were underdone. Maybe I'll have better luck next time. read more

After a successful Sunday Funday, we landed here after discovering the highly coveted "Corn Nugget" on their menu. At BW's, it's also stuffed with cream cheese, bacon and Jalapeno. The menu was vast- ranging from Flatbread to BBQ, and the drinks were well poured. This is a nice little small town spot with some killer food, and don't forget the Keno! It plays center stage at BW's- if you're lucky you'll leave with some extra cash in your pocket! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Pleasantly surprised, great menu and our food was good.

Went here today on Veterans Day to find out they don't honor a military discount...but they post happy Veterans Day on their Facebook page. I asked the owner if he could turn the game on one of the televisions and he said "he wasn't tech savvy enough to do it". Ok, while we went there with 2 other couples and the waitress forgot to put one of our members meal in and he had to wait 10 more minutes to get his food after everyone else got there food. Food was good but a bit pricey, just wasn't impressed with the service. read more

Fantastic food and service at a good price. We split the huge tenderloin and onion rings,tasty!! We will be back!

Great in-house smoked meats! This is the only place in Ashland to get Lobster Mac & Cheese. Family atmosphere, very reasonably priced, and enthusiastic service. I will be back! read more

Nice small town restaurant with a small town feel. Food is good, and servers are nice.. We always stop few times whenever we visit family in Ashland. Highly recommend their loaded tots. read more

Great place to go. I've been a couple of times and each time I've gotten something different and everything was great.

Came here during a holiday parade this past Christmas and was treated like royalty by Bryan and his team. They were super busy but he came over to check on us multiple times and even through in some free drinks. read more

Food here is AMAZING!!!! We eat here a lot and the food is always soooo good!! My go to is the Prime Rid Melt, but then the introduced Chicken Bacon Spinach Artichoke Flatbread! YUM!! I also love Asian Chicken Wrap, but I need to drink it with milk because of my weak palate for spicy food. I've ventured from my favorites a few times and have never been disappointed! So lucky to have this great restaurant in our town!! read more

I had the worst food I have ever gotten from there the service was great but the food sucked my nachos were terrible

Good atmosphere and food. Good drinks and prices. Waitress was very friendly and made multiple trips to table. Parking can be a little tricky. Park across the street in public parking lot. Appear to have a steady flow of carry out customers as well. read more

Stopped here before a round of golf at Country Drive Golf Course in Ashland and we weren't disappointed! I had the Prime Rib Melt and was one of the best I've ever had, would definitely recommend it. Someone else in our group got a specialty pizza they had that week on Cauliflower crust, and she said it was the best cauliflower crust she's ever had. We all tried a bite and you couldn't even tell it was made with cauliflower. Great little spot to stop for some beers, good food and Keno. Would recommend and would go back again. read more

I enjoy BW's food, but I wish they would work on their consistancy of the meals. It varies everytime I order the same entree.

This place is awesome!! Great food, great atmosphere, and great people. They have keno too!! Everyone is so friendly and it's a great small town restaurant. read more

Great waitresses: cold beer. Average burger, cold fries. Chili tasted like it was out of a can. Good pork, fair cole slaw. Hurried us out of there because they wanted our table for people who were waiting. Nice people, nothing special. Didn't offer us dessert or coffee, brought our bill before even asking us if we wanted anything else. Definitely not going back & definitely not worth the drive from Omaha or Lincoln. Such a cute little town, too bad the bar & grill wasn't really good. read more

Over priced, and after paying $12 for a burger and fries I got maybe 10 fries. After writing constructive criticism on another site the owner got upset and removed the comment instead of trying to fix the problem. The food is very inconsistent- one day it's really good and the next it's not. I really want this establishment to work out for the owner because he's gone through a lot of work. But, unfortunately he's losing customers daily because of prices, food and service... l On a positive note the Cowboy Bites and Prime rib sandwich are my favorites read more

We went last Saturday for the first time. It was busy due to an event in town. They had a good selections of local craft beers. Our beers came out immediately and were ice cold. The food and service exceeded our expectations. The onion rings were outstanding and our server, Beth was attentive and cheerful. We will be back. read more

BW's Pub & Grill - Barbeque Near Me - Ashland, Nebraska

I was visiting Nebraska for the first time over the weekend and the hospitality in the state was matched equally by the hospitality, customer service, and excellent food at BW's. Brian, the manager, went over and beyond to accommodate a large party last minute (and the Bacon Cheeseburger was still one of the best I have had in a while.) I travel a lot for work and can say with great confidence that BW's represented what I have come to love about the state in general - friendly, accommodating, a commitment to customer service. The comradery was as special as the dining experience. Make sure you check out this great little spot, you'll thank me later. read more

Delicious! Great service! I ordered the Reuben sandwich with house made corned beef. My husband ordered the pork tenderloin sandwich & onion rings...both breaded in house! His comment...Best Pork Tenderloin Sandwich he's ever had! We will be back! read more

Cannot say there will be any repeat business with an establishment that offers a 20% discount per $100 of gift cards and then refuses to honor it after the transaction is done. Because of this bait-and-switch, cannot recommend this establishment. Buyer beware and go somewhere else. read more

BW's has a warm, rustic atmosphere. Much of the food is made in house and always comes out delicious. With bar food and BBQ options and daily specials, there is no shortage of variety. Customers can enjoy small town beer and liquor prices here and save a considerable amount of money compared to Omaha bars. The staff is charming and attentive and the service is very efficient. BW's Pub and Grill is the best kept secret between Omaha and Lincoln! read more
