Our server Rachel was quick to greet us, friendly, and helpful. Brick walls, wood block sculptures, and old black and white photos of the town serve as decor, making the place very welcoming. A couple rounds of local beers started us and then we were off in earnest. The fried pickle spears were just as perfect as we remembered. Huge, hot, sour, and delicious, served with dijonaisse dipping sauce. Everything we ordered was delicious and each person at the table thought theirs was best. A smoked ham, cheese, and fig sandwich... cheese quesadillas... pork belly sliders... steak and mushroom wrap... all great. Our only disappointment was the gumbo. It tasted more like a bland bean soup. No seafood flavor and non existent seasonings, but even that wasn't enough to bring this place down. We cannot recommend highly enough!

And given all the time we needed to browse the menu. This was my first visit and the menu is extensive. By 1:45 we had made our decisions and ordered. Crawfish poboy $12. Tender fried crawfish on a hogie bun with remoulade. It was massive. I tried to eat it all but couldn't . So good. The Jack Daniels sirloin looked delicious ($23) served with a potato. The men at the table both ordered that. And ate everything. No leftovers. The last person to order was the only person who ordered from the lunch menu . Served from 11-3. Offers about a dozen options including the Shrimp and grits ($11) The food arrived in about 18 minutes. And we were paying the bill 25 minutes later. Very causal, un rushed visit. I would love to go back!! In my humble opinion 4.5 stars

The staff was completely unwilling to help find a solution. I suggested several simple options--digital gift card, emailing proof of purchase, or even mailing it out. Nope.

I'll be recommending my family take their money somewhere else.

The selection of beers and liquors here, and the recipe knowledge of the bartenders, will leave you unable to decide what to order! Lots of craft beers and unusual brands and flavors available. They do serve food here, and have a full kitchen. Their menu is typical bar fare mixed with a few surprises. My favorite thing here is their French dip sandwich, it's absolutely superb. There's lots of space to sit, lots of TV, a music player available to all, and lots of locals to chat with. Once again, the team who runs this place is definitely doing something right and I salute them.

Unfortunately, smoking is still allowed inside which sucks. However, it wasn't that bad in here. Ventilation must be pretty good in here. Server was very good. Neat that they had a real Irish accent. No BS here. Got the baked Cod and broccoli. It was pretty good. It comes over rice. Pretty loud inside but it's a sports bar so that's normal. Sound system was decent. Walked out and there was a guy breaking into a car. We watched for a minute or two. He gets in and starts diving under the steering wheel to get the wires out. Sooooo don't park out front.

Cookeville is such a small, quaint, and friendly town with such genuine charm to it. My husband and I visit his mimi every year and as part of our tradition, we select a restaurant in town to eat at to give her a break from cooking us meals. This year we chose Spankies! We were greeted by warm, welcoming faces, and the restaurant's ambiance felt comfortable and inviting. We ordered quite a variety from the menu! And every single dish, from the starters, to the entrées, to the sides were each absolutely delicious! You cannot go wrong with any order. 5 stars for a lovely experience!

The menu had something for everyone--from salads to burgers and classic bar food. The tostada salad was a hit I forgot to take a picture. I have mixed feelings about the visit. While the food was a hit (everyone enjoyed their orders), the service was a bit slow. It took a while after being seated, to place our orders, and finally get our food. Our server was very sweet, but seemed stretched thin--possibly juggling too many tables. Overall, a decent local stop with a solid menu, but be prepared for a more relaxed pace when it comes to service.
