    Cool vibe, friendly people, the crowd is low key. They had a little pizza truck on site serving pizza. It was good.

    Beer was ok, not very cold. Great outside patio area. Live music too loud. But others seemed to enjoy it

Tucked away down a quiet dirt road, this place is a true hidden gem. Despite being absolutely packed on Saturday, the energy was electric and the service never missed a beat. From overflowing steins and mouthwatering BBQ plates to fresh, sizzling pizza, Whistling Springs delivered on every front. The staff were not only incredibly friendly but also super knowledgeable--eager to help you choose the perfect craft beer and even share the story behind it. This will definitely become a regular destination for us. And the bonuses? A peaceful pond, charming farm animals, horse rides, and more. Oh--and minimal cell service, which made it the perfect excuse to unplug and truly enjoy the moment.

    Love, love, love this place. It's a great place to go to get your animal fix. There's a petting…read morezoo, a stable, horses, miniature horses, cattle, sheep, goats, donkeys and pigs. They said they had chickens but I never saw any. Oh, least I forget, at least five dogs. The beer is very interesting. I tried their RootBeer at FrostFest 2024 in Fayetteville. The taste was so outstanding I took a road trip the next weekend just to have another taste. This is not your regular root beer. The ABV is 8.6. On Sundays they will serve it as a Root Beer Float. It's fantastic. I plan or going back really soon.

    First of all, if you go in to this place expecting a brewery, like I did, then you will be very…read moredisappointed. This is not a brewery. This is a bar that happens to sell beer made by someone like a home brewer. And not good beer at that. They have 4 options to pick from. We tried the fancy water and the Irish red. Both were extremely flat. I haven't had a flat beer in a while but that certainly affects the taste of the beer that should have a bit of foam on the top and these didn't have any. Second both beers were absolutely disgusting. If we didn't order food, this would be a 1 star review based on the horrible beer and Coyote Ugly type decor that doesn't match what an actual brewery should look like. It was smelly (like cigarettes) and weirdly uncomfortable. I go to bars often but this one caught me off guard since I was expecting a brewery type experience. The second star is from the food. They have some typical bar food and we got a variety of dishes. We got chili cheese fries that were amazing, fried green beans that were yummy served with a thick ranch dressing, the hot dog wrapped in cream cheese and a tortilla and fried and the chili dog. The food was all really good, however it didn't outweigh the horrible beers. I visit the Springfield area often but I doubt I will ever be back to this place.

    Unfortunately our tabs are not lining up to being consistent, even when specials are included. It…read moredoes make it hard when there's not an actual itemized bill. This is a bar I've enjoyed coming to when I come home for the holidays and it was not the place this year with being constant.
