I've been wanting to check this place out since I moved down the street a few years ago. The bartend was super friendly and happily explained the membership requirement. I also got to chat to a few of the regulars. It is an intimate space, but it was really nice. It is all bar stool seating and there's a step up into the bar and then another couple of steps to the bathroom. So not ADA friendly, but like most bars they're just dealing with the cards they were dealt in the early 1900s when they were opened! Over all, you should go check it out if you're interested in finding your own little local watering hole.

While visiting a friend in Ottawa, KS, we had dinner at Brand N Iron Bar and Grill (now named Brand…read moreN Iron Country Grill), a local favorite. We went on Saturday night and it was packed! We had to wait until guests left, but they are so quick in bussing tables that flow of guests were continuous. The ambiance was somewhat country/western style, the wall of "Brandings" of local Ranchers in the area was amazing, as if it was a tribute to them. Love the vibe, it was apparent to me that this was a very supporting community. Every customer that came in was known to the owners, if not, they were treated with very hospitable service. It wasn't too long that we are finally seated. We started off with drinks. While others had beer and fountain drinks, I had the Kansas Sunset Cocktail and it was very refreshing for the Hot Humid Kansas weather! Seeing that portions were huge, we passed on appetizers and went straight to the Main entrees. Ordered the Prime Rib Sandwich, Chicken Friend Steak Dinner, and the Barnyard Battle Dinner. Each came with 2 sides, their side salad was big, also came with 2 servings of crackers. We also got Mac & Cheese, and loaded baked potatoes as sides. Very generous with the butter for the baked potatoes, I also liked that the sour cream was Daisy, and it was individually wrapped too (my first time ever seeing sour cream like this)! Food was abundant and delicious! The Barnyard Battle is an excellent choice if you want to try both Roast Beef and Chicken Fried Steak. The Prime Rib was tender for the sandwich. I was so bummed that Prime Rib was only served on Thursdays. Hope the owners would consider making it a regular item on their daily menu. After that hearty meal, we were treated to slices of homemade apple pie (a la mode and served warn) and chocolate peanut butter pie which was shared by all of us. Those pies was a delicious way to top our dining experience. I was told it was the owner's mom's recipe, and it's a MUST have! Highly recommend if ever you find yourself on HWY 59 in Ottawa, KS! The restaurant may be easily missed from the highway because it's behind the Shell Gas Station. The parking lot is gravel but plenty. It also appears they are expanding the front outwards that you just have to go through it to get to the entrance. Special shout out to owners Aaron and Lindsay Nichols for their hospitality and keeping Brand N Iron Bar & Grill a great place for locals and non-locals to dine. :)

The address is Broadway, but the entrance is in the back alley and then down a flight of stairs into the basement of the old Carnival building built in 1903. With it's dark atmosphere and exposed walls and pipes, a prohibition vibe is certainly present. My $6 Tank 7 was priced fairly and my female bartender was friendly. The 7pm crowd was a mix of fans from the earlier KC Current match nearby and a few "club girls" that were starting early. Leather seating, a nice billiards table and several TV's with sports provided entertainment. Probably won't go out of my way to return since I live across town, but would probably have been a regular if they had been open when I lived in the neighborhood.

Well another group of ppl were hangin out with us since we're cool, an started to play music as well. By almost the end of the night neither one of us heard most of the songs we played so we complained about it. After our party was upset over the situation we left. While outside socializing a chic heard my homegirl say "bitch" an thought we called her one when in reality she was sayn "ain't that a bitch" but the chic was super drunk an heard it wrong. Anyways she went inside an told the bartender (who I guess no her) an he came outside rite as we were twinkling but remind you, there's only two bathrooms in the place that were full an we definitely wasn't gonna pee on our nice clothes, beside the fact we didn't wanna go back in after that incident...he asked us to leave an said we cnt ever come back ..my homies started talkn slick to him sayn they wnt ever be back ..we left and I'm thinkin all is cool so I went back a few wks later only to be told I cnt come back in becuz I was bein disrespectful, like really?? That definitely wasn't fair considerin I took pics on Halloween wit the same bartender guy who said that an he was cool wit my then, not to mention we spent alot of money there, so I felt offended. I ended up leavin an found a better bar up the st called Dewey's in which I no the owner, that's wat better, and dnt jus except 'cash only', it also has a live DJ who plays real good music so we dnt need to spend ours for songs we didn't even get to hear! So I'm not really upset about him sayn I can't come there anymore becuz it's their LOSS!!!

It's decent sized, clean, and the service was friendly. I went with a PBR and didn't really check out the beer menu. A shot of cinnamon rumplemintz found its way in front of me. But I never actually looked at a menu so I'm not any help there. I did enjoy the fun mystery bag vending machine. It's gimmicky but I bought one and I was pretty happy with my purchase. It's a fun little thing that sparked joy in that moment. Anyway, I'll definitely stop by again and next time I'll be in a better position to share the experience.

The big white guy, who I'm assuming was the bouncer, apologized. However, the damage had already been done. A black gentleman who we were told didn't work there, asked my husband to step outside "to talk". However, all he did was add fuel to the fire. I'm hoping he did not work there otherwise he's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Because that man DOES NOT know how to deescalate a situation. Unfortunately because of this, we won't ever be going back. This is super sad because this is not something you'd expect to experience in Kansas City. Food was ok. Ambiance was ok. However, this bar will now forever be known as "Twin Sh*tty", to our group. Thanks to the rude regulars for putting a damper on my birthday celebration! The irony in this situation is that if the roles were reversed, anyone in our group would've been super welcoming to newbies. Oh well! C'est la vie!

My friend and I stopped in recently on a snowy day and the place was lively and the service was on point. I forgot they had curly fries which are indeed the most superior fry in the game so, that's a big plus for me. But, what really shone through was the Chicken Caesar Wrap, it was filling and fresh. I've been on the hunt for a standout Chicken Caesar Wrap ever since they really started trending online and this one hit most of the right marks. The grilled chicken wasn't rubbery and the ratio of protein to lettuce was on point. I enjoyed that the creamy tangy caesar dressing wasn't too plentiful, if it's overdone then the wrap becomes soggy. The only thing that would have upped the ante would have been if the tortilla was grilled because it was a tad gummy. Other than that this wrap checked all the boxes. The curly fries on the out hand were near perfection, seasoned just like one of my favorite fast food restaurants and crispy without being oily. The Bar is what its namesake says, it's a neighborhood joint that serves "bar food" nothing stuffy or fancy but, great drinking food...or if you're not drinking your loss...still, the American classics are done right and you shouldn't be disappointed if you order an appetizer, burger or wrap here.
