Delicious turkey sandwich and Greek salad, and many homemade dessert options! We felt very welcome, and the restaurant is inviting. We will return! read more

Great food. Always made it a point to target Thursdays which was fried chicken day. Bummed that they only serve fried chicken on the third Thursday of the month. Worth keeping in mind - although we are not in the area that often. read more

Frumpy Joe's has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. It's a small-town hole in the wall, but definitely a treasure! Great for lunch, dinner. They have room for larger family dining. I've always loved their salads and wings--so good. They're temporarily closed right now but just got picked up by a new owner, and I can't wait to see what's in store when they reopen. Looking forward to visiting again soon! read more

We've been wanting to try this place out for a while and we finally did tonight and we will definitely be back! The service was fast and friendly and the food was delicious. I had the catfish with green beans and macaroni and cheese and everything was perfect. The green beans were fresh and Sautéed with a lot of onion just the way I love it. My husband had one of their burgers and said it was the best burger he ever had! We will be back! read more

Happened upon it traveling. Food was delicious!!! Wish it was closer to us to be able to go regularly and try all of the menu

Friendly service, made from scratch potato chips and dishes. It was a great early dinner stop between St. Louis and Columbia MO.

It's been a while since we have eaten here and decided to stop by tonight. Service was good and food was delicious, it being nonsmoking was also a plus. I had the pork loin sandwich, it was amazing. My wife had a burger and she was also pleased with it. Recommend you give it a try. read more

I really wanted to like this place, but the experience was disappointing from start to finish. The staff seemed uninterested and unhelpful -- it felt like I was more of an inconvenience than a customer. Service was slow, and when l asked a simple question, I got a dismissive response. On top of that, the bathroom was in awful condition: dirty, poorly stocked, and clearly not maintained throughout the day. It left a bad impression and made the whole visit feel careless. I don't usually leave negative reviews, but both the service and cleanliness here were far below what l'd expect. Hopefully management takes these issues seriously, because they really brought the experience down. read more

Best Turkey Club sandwich ever! It was done and made to order in less than 5 minutes and it was delicious! Their homemade chips were the best ever, too! I may stop by again on my way home! Not very big as space but with plenty of tables and also plenty of high chairs by the bar area. Ample selection of beverages and their menu has everything for everyone. They prep and make a lot of the food themselves, not the frozen stuff you get everywhere. Stop by and decide for yourself and don't get bogged down by some petty complaints from petty people. read more

Frumpy Joe's - Had to take my turkey club to go! It was da bomb! - Burgers Near Me - Jonesburg, Missouri

The food was good. Service was great! I also really appreciate that most of their items are made from scratch. My husband got the catfish and I got a buffalo chicken breast sandwich. My husband got creamy coleslaw as one of his sides and he said it's one of the best he's ever had. When we're back in the area again, we'll definitely be back!! read more

Came here on yelp reviews but business is temporarily closed as of September 27,2024. Sign says new owners are coming soon.

A random stop but so glad I got to experience Frumpy Joe's. -The beef steak was delicious and such a generous portion, topped with mushrooms and onions. Came with two sides which I also enjoyed. - Cobb Salad: You know me and my salads, had to get one as a side. But this portion was also very generous. Possibly shareable depending on your hunger level. They have a very large space, but we were one of 5 groups in there so felt amply spaced out in our booth. Chatted a bit with the waitress, such a nice lady. Hope we can come again soon. read more

Sorry, consumed our meals before thinking about a picture. It was that good! Wonderful find on our trip through Missouri. Local restaurant serving everything homemade. We both opted for the special, smoked pork shoulder steak with a side of baked beans and slaw. Hubby chose creamed and I had the vinegar slaw, both were excellent but my opinion, I chose the best. Pork shoulder was a generous slab of steak with the perfect smoke flavor topped with the best house made bbq sauce. As if that wasn't enough, we chose to have one of the many dessert options. Carrot cake with homemade cream cheese icing. The owner served us and kept our drinks filled. Was so enjoyable to hear her vision for the restaurant after purchasing it. Was clean and so warm and inviting to enjoy our meal. Thank you for a great meal at the end of day of traveling. read more

Happened to stop in on fried chicken day, and, oh man, am I glad we did! It was deliciously light and crisp and the accompanying green beans were fresh and oh-so-tasty! The owners told us the story of rehabbing the place after they bought it - they definitely take pride in the cleanliness of the whole restaurant and the quality of the food!! read more

This is what small town cafes in America are all about. Quality, well presented food with incredibly friendly service. I had the signature bacon cheeseburger on toasted sourdough bread with onion rings and both were excellent. Frumpy Joes is a very short drive off of I 70 but is miles ahead of any chain restaurant alternatives. Enjoy the great food and a staff who seem to actually enjoy serving their customers. read more

We took time to stop by for a late lunch on our cross country drive. We can tell these guys take pride in their housemate recipes. Breaded chicken items and sauces on the menu were delish. We took away some homemade desserts. Can't wait! read more

We thought the food was delicious and service was excellent. One of the tastiest reuben sandwiches I've ever had. And very friendly owners!

An absolute gem! If you have the chance, be sure to stop by Frumpy Joe's!

Road-trip break! Such a delight! And wonderful food! A very clean and friendly environment. Kimberly took care of us and she was lovely! I always enjoy when an employee cares about their work. The Rueben was amazing even with no cheese! And her cranberry Orange cake was yummy! We are obsessed with how cute the signs are on the way in. Enjoy everyone! read more

What a HIDDEN GEM ! I have seen the signs along I-70 for years during my trips from St Louis to CoMo and KC buy have never stopped..... now it is my go to stopping point for lunch! Such a friendly staff and unassuming location with SIMPLY FANTASTIC food. If you are traveling on I-70 and are hungry it is worth a small side trip to stop at Frumpy Joe's read more

Great food and great service. Had shirts for sale and bought one. Great old fashion ambiance.

Definitely a new favorite place, it has become a regular Friday night location for dinner, The atmosphere is extremely friendly for all ages Large portions great tasting food moderately priced and a friendly staff read more

Traveling on our way to Kansas City, we came across this great little spot just off I-70. We stopped for dinner and the atmosphere felt like a neighborhood favorite bar. It was comfortable and friendly. I got the country-fried steak with real mashed potatoes and a side of pickled beets. Everything tasted great! The staff was friendly and attentive. If you find yourself in Jonesburg, MO, stop in and have a great meal! read more

We had a last minute group of 10. They were extremely accommodating, super friendly, and the food was EXCELLENT!!! We went as some family lives in STL and some in Columbia, so this was in the middle. Again, all the food was excellent and made for a perfect meeting spot. Highly Recommend read more

Great food. Not too far from the highway. Kind of a clean dive bar feel. The menu is not just the usual bar food - I'd say fresher ingredients. Better than any chain around. read more

We were passing through and stopped for lunch in this little town of 812 people. We were not disappointed! Two people can split any of the meals. Delicious! read more

Frumpy Joe's - Cold beer, now waiting on the cowboy burger and coleslaw. So far great service and friendly. - Burgers Near Me - Jonesburg, Missouri

What a great lunch! Headed to KC and looked for an off the beaten patch spot. This was a gem of a choice. Really good burgers. My son got chicken strips. Oh my! They were like chicken breast. We had to get a second plate to give him room to eat. Great service and atmosphere! read more

Easy to miss if you're not paying attention (and trust me, you don't want to miss it!) - no big sign out front, but it's right across from the Jonesburg Historical Museum and just off highway 70. This is an extremely clean and well maintained diner with a full bar. They also have plenty of tvs if you need to catch a game. I noticed a brisk carry out business while we were there for lunch. I had the mushroom Swiss burger special with sweet potato fries and hubby had the Frumpy burger with seasoned curly fries. I thought my burger was fantastic! Juicy, done perfectly and well seasoned with lots of real mushrooms! The portion size was good and you got plenty of fries with your meal. I liked the sweet potato fries, but probably liked the seasoned curly fries just a little bit better. No worries though because both were good! This is definitely going to be a favorite stop for us! read more

Fantastic, onion rings - the best I've ever had. Great thick bacon in the BLT. Caramel sauce was awesome.

Great clean establishment with even better customer service. Many options to choose from at reasonable prices. Stopped here while camping somewhat close. My wife who is hard to impress was very happy with everything. We will return! read more

Great St. Louis style pizza! Excellent prices. We ordered two 12 inch supreme pizzas and fried pickle spears. Both were excellent. It fed our family of 6 and we had some pizza left over. The waitress was very attentive and friendly. read more

Little ways off I70, but worth the drive. Food is okay. Had to wait for a table. Recommend.

Small town Bar and Restaurant. I ordered the special which was a sirloin steak choice of potato, vegetable, and cornbread for $10.95. The steak was delicious, baked potato was adequate, green beans and cornbread we're good also. The waitress / barmaid was very attentive to my needs and kept my drinks filled. A quick stop off of Interstate 70 for a good meal and you're back on the road. The only downside is they allow smoking inside but it was tolerable. read more

Not alot of options to eat in this neck of the woods so i didnt expect much but this little burger joint was very good. I dont know all the ingredients for the chip dip but crack must be the main one. Couldnt get enough of that stuff. read more

almost a religious experience for me, god bless joe and may he remain frumpy in perpetuity
