The food was good. I ordered the jambalaya (without shrimp) and it was very flavorful. It had a little more liquid than I was expecting and leaned towards the "mushy" side but the sausage and chicken were spiced well. The sausage had the right amount of "snap" to it.

We have been to Johnny's Tavern many times and the food and service are usually spot on. Tonight…read morethere was a bit of a miss. Our group of 13 arrived well before the crowd, but had to wait a very long time for our food. That is especially hard on the young ones. Although it is quite loud in there, we are typically able to talk. The chicken wings and fries were lukewarm and most said their dinner was so so. I had a side salad which was good, but of course I expect that to be room temp. We are going on the premise that this was a one off. But normally, we would expect much better on the food quality. Our server did a pretty good job for us.

You know what's really good about this place? Their signature 'cup-sized' cocktails, like their…read morehouse margarita, the 'Sinner's Punch' (a house specialty), or maybe even their Long Islands. Plus, the happy hour prices are attractive and the 'portion sizes' for the drinks are more than ample. You know what else is good? The pricing. Happy hour prices aside, Saints-Independence is offering a price point that is a bit below market for their fare, and in these times, that alone can draw you in. But, ah, there's the rub. The food is pretty average, so it's a good thing that you likely aren't going to squabble over the bill. Bar & grille food isn't usually supposed to blow your hair back, but Saints has a lot of fried options that seem under-seasoned and slow to be delivered, sooo not exactly prime. The servers are friendly, but if they have to cover the patio and the bar/dining room, then it's not a surprise that things move slowly. It's a great spot to meet, given that it's just off of I-70, but join for a drink & maybe an appetizer, and my guess is that you'll come to the same conclusion: it's just...OK.

I walked into Saints Pub - Independence on Thanksgiving running purely on fumes and poor planning…read more My stomach was emptier than the highway that morning, and I was fully prepared to regret every decision that led me there. Luckily, Saints came through like a holiday hero. Even on a quiet Thanksgiving stop-in, the place felt welcoming and relaxed. The staff seemed to immediately understand that I was one hunger pang away from giving a heartfelt Oscar speech about food. Drinks arrived fast, perfectly chilled, and honestly felt like the first step in my emotional recovery. When the food hit the table, it was exactly what an empty-stomach wanderer dreams about--hot, hearty and flavorful. Every bite felt like someone whispering, "You're gonna make it, buddy." Whether it was the seasoning, the freshness, or my Thanksgiving-level starvation, everything tasted phenomenal. Saints Pub didn't just serve me a meal--they rescued me from a very dramatic holiday meltdown. If you ever find yourself hungry, tired, or simply in need of a good meal in Independence, Saints has your back.

Barbecue and a brewery?…read more Yes please. I've only visited for brunch, so that's what I'll write about. The menu has a few familiar faces - Eggs Benedicts, biscuits and gravy, breakfast sandwiches, chicken and waffles and more. I liked the biscuits and gravy, but I absolutely loved the Burnt Ends Eggs Benedict. The beers are solid and feature something for everybody. I wish they offered an extra seasonal, but I understand a brewing schedule that features quick moving draughts. A small note - please watch your check. Some of the prices in the computer don't match with the menu. The staff - who were awesome - were also apologetic and moved to make corrections when notified.

My husband ordered the Local burger with chips and salsa. He said the burger was delicious. I tried the chips and salsa.

The fries were NOT what I was thinking, but they were unique and delicious, crispy with soft inside. I was skeptical about the wrap being served hot, but it definitely worked and was also good.
