I was recently invited to participate in a trivia contest at Woodruff's, a cocktail bar in the…read moreheart of beautiful Odessa. Having recently opened, I'd never heard of the joint. A good friend told me, though, that the cocktails were exquisite and that there was a waiting list for limited memberships. Needless to say, I was intrigued. I was immediately impressed upon entering. Plenty of comfortable seating (we're talking couches and easy chairs), soft ambient lighting, and a kind of quiet mystical aura make it a charming spot to gather with friends and discuss the latest Love is Blind or sit quietly by yourself, writing the poetry of your soul. The two drinks I had were, indeed, fabulous. They have beer and wine as well. Some snacks, too! The drink menu is not extensive, but it is ever-changing, like a good speakeasy will do. The bar staff were all super friendly, helpful, and adept at making spectacular concoctions. The place is open to the public but they also have memberships which gets you a free drink each month and other perks. One in particular is that you get your very own drawer, all of which are located on the front of the bar. I have no idea what a member does with his very own drawer but i find that I am beguiled and must have one for myself. Alas, there is a waiting list, but someday...

We came here on our trip to Missouri. The town of Odessa is small and home-like feeling. We felt…read moreright at home when we entered the doors. The decor is artfully chosen. We enjoyed the gin spring tease cocktail and a smoked old fashioned. The bar tender was very nice and conversational. The speakeasy feel is very comforting. The service was very personalized. Would 12/10 recommend if you want to spent a nice evening with family or friends in a comfortable setting having top-tier hand-crafted cocktails.

The many televisions in the dining area were mostly playing videos of quirky sports, so I was able to keep myself entertained by watching competitive air guitar. I can't say that about many places. 10/10.

We continue to give this place a chance and we are done after today…read more Service was not great. Serving size is small. We spent $80 plus tip and we both left hungry. We had a new server which is fine but she needed to be trained better. I don't know how an owner can stand around and chit chat while he has customers waiting over 45 minutes for a tenderloin, French dip and fries. They kept serving other people that came in after us. We won't be back. We will go back to Players!

The family went out this afternoon to go bowling and have some fun! We walked in and the business…read morewas semi busy. We paid for our bowling shoes and ordered some soda to drink as we played. Many ball weight options to choose from and friendly for all ages! The customer service was friendly and attentive. They had music playing and lots of TV's for Advertisements and bowling scores. We had ordered a Pepperoni pizza, it arrived very hot. A bit high in price for the quality and unfortunately the taste wasn't very good, slightly burnt and lacking in flavor. It's bowling food so I can't complain much! The bathrooms were also very clean. Overall, it was fun, I would recommend the bowling but maybe not so much the food.

Can't say enough great things about the owners and Alley Cats. We live in Michigan and visit our…read morefamily several times a year. Our daughters are very active in bowling and one bowls for the University of Michigan. We come down here to get her ball every year. They are very scientific in drilling her ball which is exactly what we are looking for. We have many lanes to pick from in Michigan but we choose Alley Cats due to the personal and specialized sizing that they do. We also utilize the PBA lanes for ball tracking technology. It helps in better understanding the path and her adjustments. We would absolutely recommend alley cats for all your bowling needs!

You might be put on probation by the old gray haired female owner. I think she was up too late and just ate a lemon. Who knows, must only care about the regulars and locals. My friend who recently moved to Holden area (5-6 years ago) said she has always been a sour puss and need to get some. Dear Lord! As for the food, great burgers and sandwiches; you must try the Reuben for lunch or dinner. And yes they have fried foods. OK, now back to my rant... It is amazing how a place called Cowboy Inn does not like caring for bar patrons. It's a Friday night, busy (at least that is what the bartender said - 10 customers plus our group of 7) and they barely can be bothered. Even the locals left be because off the lack of service. They have a pool table, bowling video game, and TouchTunes music. The bathrooms are a step below a filling station's, minus the key. If I come back, it will be to get take out and head over to Stumble Inn and listen to the trains and good conversation.

We visited this winery on our way home from a winery-weekend in Hermann, MO. This was our last winery on our trip back to Kansas. It has been opened for 5 years and deemed "a hobby gone crazy". This winery specializes in sweet wines/fruit wines. We had Wildflower White, Apple, Puddle Jumper Pear (purchased!), Peachy Peach, Front Porch Red (Purchased!), Country Concord, and Happy Chef. One more wine that I didn't try, but my husband really enjoyed is a jalapeno wine (purchased!). I'm excited to have added these wines to our growing collection!

We did a little wine trip this last weekend and hit up Odessa Winery. It is extremely hard to find…read morebut worth it. They only make sweet wines. We tried a 2009 and 2011 Concord they were okay. One of them was called Happy Chef. Then we had the Apple, Puddle Jumper Pear, a white wine I don't remember the name, an Elderberry wine, and Tornado Spotter which is a Jalapeno/Apple wine. I bought the Pear and White wine for my parents. They are a little sweeter than I like. The Elderberry wine (which I love) I didn't like theirs it was dirty tasting. The Tornado Spotter is NASTY and a palate killer. The owner was super nice and they were having a farkel party while we were there. I would go again to get the Pear and White wine as gifts for people if I were in the area. Take cash or checks they charge and extra 3% for credit cards. They are all about $12 a bottle
