The best and classiest place to have a drink for a long way from Chester. After living in Chicago…read morefor several years, I can say that Benson's would fit right in with almost any bar I've been to up there. I definitely think most people would be surprised to see a bar this nice in a small town. They are open Thursday-Saturday nights and have live music every Friday and Saturday. There's a good selection of wine and craft beer, and they also have some snacks to nosh on. Because they don't serve food, they welcome people to bring in outside food. After a few drinks, a lot of people like to order pizza and have it delivered directly to the bar. Lots of comfortable seating (couches, etc.) and they have two TVs if there's a game you want to keep an eye on. The owners have done a fantastic job with this place, and, if you're in the area and looking for a place to have a cocktail (or 2 or 3), you definitely need to check it out.

This bar has to be the coolest, most hip bar in the surrounding counties. They have an incredible…read morewine selection and beautiful cocktails.

Jackpot! A friend invited me and my husband to this establishment and it completely blew our…read moreexpectations away. Although it's housed in a small town, their selection of bourbon and tequila and other fine liquors is outstanding. The owner is extremely knowledgeable on different types of unpreserved tequila so my husband was in pure heaven. I ordered an old fashion, and he tried one of his preservative, free tequila, which was another selling point that he had preservative free, hard liquor items. It was very educated about the backstory of them. It was just such a cool place! He gave us a tour around the liquor store as well giving us knowledge about each of the different regions and where things were made you could tell he was really passionate. The staff was all really nice and attentive. It's very clean, decorated nicely, has some awesome mural artwork inside. Although they've only been open six months. This is truly a place that you would come back to again again! If I were living in Festus, this would definitely be my number one bar to be a regular, if you haven't given them a try I highly suggest going by and visiting, be back soon! Very well done owners and staff!

The patrons were friendly and welcoming to my GF & I (interracial couple in the rural SE Midwest). Beers were cheap and I'm sure it's even more fun at night with a bigger crowd (pre-pandemic, I wouldn't recommend a large crowd at this moment). Due to the location, masks weren't enforced although I preferred to wear mine when not taking a drink.

Their drinks were good but if you are a beer drinker you are mostly looking at the normal, run of the mill lagers. They did have a couple of IPAs but nothing special craft brewery-ish. My daughter ordered a mule and said it was very good. We both ordered burgers and fries. The burgers were very good and sized well so we walked away satisfied. The service was really very good. The young lady provided just the right amount of attention and was super friendly. This place would be an excellent place to frequent if you were a local. They have a gaming room with electronic gambling machines but there is tournament sized shuffleboard along the back wall and it looked like it was free to play. Also soft tip dart boards if you enjoy that.

A large restaurant with high ceilings and colorful art throughout the interior. Our server arrived moments after we were seated. She took our beverage requests and returned shortly with them. We had perused the menu briefly and started with a couple appetizers. Their Pretzels & Beer Cheese and the Smoke Pork Rangoon. Both were good choices. The pretzels were hot and just the right amount of course salt, a buttery dark golden brown crunchy exterior and warm soft bread interior. The smoked pork rangoon, a nice mixture of tender smoked pork with cream cheese filing. These are a nice twist on the traditional crab rangoon. Fried golden brown, with a flavorful filing. A good choice for an appetizer. For my lunch, I went with their Fish and Chips. Along with a side of the Gouda Mac. Two beer battered filets with slaw and fries. The fries and slaw were good, the filets were okay. They seemed like they were prepackaged though? The shape and texture did not match up with the house made fries and slaw. It was okay but nothing special. The Mac n Cheese was good, creamy rich gouda on warm shell macaroni. A nice serving with good flavor. 3.5 Stars All in all a decent lunch, not great, not bad it served its purpose. Rounded up for the staff. 01304
