We came in to celebrate our friends 21st birthday and my girlfriend went up to the bar to get drinks. A small blond guy came to take her order, she asked for 3 "sweet drinks" of his recommendation. He said 'I don't have time for this' and stomped away. The other bartender was better but if you are looking for a place with great bartenders, this isn't it.

Anyways enough with history. This is hands down the greatest bar is the history of man kind. Sandy Simmons is one in a million. She can make drinks and cooks the most amazing hamburgers known to man. IN-N-OUT burger can't even come close to these burgers she whips up. All the bartenders here are nice, and I cant even get over how cheap the drinks are here, you wont find cheaper drinks anywhere else. If you go here you will never forget the phrase. "You know what you got? YOU AINT GOT A DAMN THING!" LOL CLASSIC!

Above and Beyond! My wife and I live in Las Vegas and…read morerecently stopped in Jamestown to visit our son. Living in Vegas, we're used to the 24-hour lifestyle where you can always find something to eat, no matter the time of day. While in Jamestown, we were looking for a late-night meal and quickly discovered that almost everything was closed. We called Tapps and learned that the bar closed at midnight, but the kitchen was scheduled to close at 11:00 PM. It was already 10:50 PM, and we didn't want to inconvenience the kitchen staff. However, Val, the bartender, encouraged us to place an order and head over. Honestly, we were surprised, but we took her up on the offer. We arrived around 11:00 PM, after the kitchen had officially closed, and were amazed when our food arrived hot and fresh at the table. The food was outstanding, and the service was even better. Our server, Pesh, was attentive, prompt, and offered excellent menu recommendations that did not disappoint. Between the exceptional customer service, great food, and willingness of the staff to go above and beyond for travelers looking for a late-night meal, Tapps made a lasting impression on us. We would highly recommend Tapps to anyone visiting Jamestown, North Dakota. Thank you, Val, Pesh, and the entire team for such a great experience!

You have a friend of a friend that said go to Robinson and now your wondering WTH do I do there? You are a tourist/wandering nomad thinking there's gotta be a reason to stop somewhere in the vast endless prairie land of North Dakota. You seek the meaning of life, a writer looking for inspiration, or maybe just someone to talk to. You are a local. Liar! You wouldn't be reading this. Ok, additional need to know items. If it's dark out and you blink, you'll literally drive right by this town without realizing. The locals don't wear cowboy hats. Yeah, yeah, there's pictures, out of state regulars. Cash, United States currency in small denominations please. Flash a Benjamin and you're impressing no one unless your buying a lot of beer for yourself and everyone in the bar. But you do get to ring the bell! Ring it like you have a pair or you get the buy another round. Repeat as necessary but it's more fun to roll dice for rounds. Looking for fancy mixed drinks or micro brews? Bismarck is an hour away. Are you a foodie? Hope you like pizza or go to Carol's. So why come here? It looks like another one bar town and there's plenty in North Dakota. You want a sterile modern bar go to Tuttle or Pettibone. You go to Hanson's for beer in a can, the stories, and history in the making. The summer events, especially Kidder County Classic dirt bike race, truck pull, and the 2-day music Center Fest (campers welcome). Conversation with genuine people. Bill Bender. There's a unique story behind most of the decor in the bar and depending on the day and maybe a Jackson he'll tell you. Everything from The Wall Street Journal, identified as a state landmark, CBS Morning news, the town trebuchet, the ICDC, Dale Watson, chicken sh** bingo, the birth place of spoken word karaoke, and so much more. He's also got the fastest modern WiFi in the area. People from around the world have been here and they'll remember the experience for the rest of their lives. So stop reading, get driving, and join their ranks.
