We've been coming to Willie's for over 20 years. It used to be one of the few places in town that…read morefelt consistent, not just in service, but in spirit. Lately, though, it's clear that whatever made this place special has been pushed aside, if not completely forgotten. The sudden disappearance of your bartenders is baffling. Turnover is normal in a college town, sure, but this wasn't a natural shift, it feels like a purge. The heart and personality of the place left with them. What's left behind feels generic, transactional, and hollow. Then there's the decision to go cashless. I'm not sure who thought that was a good idea, but it's incredibly tone-deaf. It's inconvenient, exclusionary, and says more about your priorities than you probably realize. For a place that used to feel local and grounded, it now feels like it's trying to be something it's not, and failing. Willie's had something rare, real character, built over decades. Watching it unravel this quickly is disappointing, to say the least. We won't be back, and that's not something we say lightly. Good luck, truly. But maybe think about what made people come here in the first place. And who.

After over a decade living in OK, I finally visited this Stillwater destination restaurant. It…read morelived up to its reputation as a special place. I came to Stillwater on a work trip with 5 other people. It was a Tuesday just before noon. We were quoted an accurate 10 - 15 minute wait time. That gave us time to browse the gift shop before we sat down at our table on the second floor. We had a nice view of the campus and the bar across the street. It was a bit loud in there due to the music and many other guests, but we carried on our lunch table conversation without any trouble. I ordered Joe's Classic with lettuce, tomato, and pickles. It was a solid charbroiled burger -- a step up from Burger King because of the thickness of the patty and because it had a buttered toasted bun. A little ketchup and mustard was all that it needed. For my side order, I got the coleslaw. Overall, not bad. It was served cold and had little bits of carrot and red cabbage for color and extra crunch. The dressing was not overly sweet and had a runny consistency that I liked. However, I prefer a coleslaw dressing with more vinegar than in their recipe. We ordered some of the famous cheese fries to share as a table. They were delicious! I like that they cut their fries in-house, and their custom fry seasoning was delicious. No extra salt or pepper needed!

I ordered Chicken chili and a Black Bean Burger with everything on it (pickle, tomato and lettuce). The rest of the party received their appetizers, and main dishes. I waited, and waited while the server attended to guests being seated at other tables. When my sandwich arrived it was cold and dry. Way disappointing. The chili though, was hot and delicious, especially with the shredded cheddar I received on the side. I guess it was a busy time of day, or that our server was a bit overwhelmed and unorganized, but I won't be returning any time soon for a cold, dry burger.

Everyone knows the Tumbleweed or "The Weed" as people call it. Heck, my parents used to go here when they were in college. Apparently it was bumpin' back then. Not so much now. Even though my experience happened like... four years ago, I still remember it like it was yesterday. A big group of girls from floor 3 of Village C (the journalism floor) headed on out here to go club. I think all of us had, well, never been clubbing before and well, what were we expecting in the middle of nowheresville Oklahoma? My then-friend, a Chicago girl by the name of Carolyn S. came with me and we were horrified when we walked in after giving the bouncer $7 each, to get in. We walked inside to see the bouncers carrying a girl, like a baby, out of the club. I don't know if she had been on E or was just that ridiculously drunk. I can still see her head flopped back in my mind. Scary. Well, now that that was over, we walked into a completely smoke filled room - picture the bar from the movie My Cousin Vinny and this is what it looked like. Smoke so thick you could cut it with a knife and pool tables everywhere. Ugh. The dance floor was teeny tiny, filled with only girls and I was not having it when some girl on my floor trying to dance up on me. I don't swing that way. I don't think there were even 5 guys sitting around the dance floor with country playing. It was really the last straw for me. After 7 minutes in that hell hole, I called up a guy who lived on my floor back at the dorms and demanded he come save Carolyn and me. Within 10 minutes of my call, I was sitting in the middle seat of his truck, with all the windows down, with him complaining how we smelled like ashtrays. NEVER AGAIN!

We tried the basil pesto & goat cheese crostini and the spinach artichoke dip. Both were amazing! The negatives: It was a little loud, but not unbearable sitting by a wall. I would not love if I had to sit in the middle of the room. Getting seated was also difficult, as they did not have a host stand, so we just waited by the door. My least favorite part of the evening was when we were trying to pay. They were just holding the handheld machine, so we could not take our time looking at the bill and filling out the tip. The presets were something like 20%, 25%, and 30% tips. I am not opposed to tipping that much if we received above and beyond service, but that felt very pushy for such a nice place.
