Chatters

Came to try the $ 5.00 farmers breakfast. I am very impressed. You get scrambled eggs, 3 pieces of thick bacon, home fries, scrambled eggs and a biscuit with sausage gravy. They do not allow any substitutions so don’t try to order eggs over easy but at this price you can’t beat the deal. I highly recommend stopping by and grabbing this deal. None of us could even finish it so don’t worry about not being full. Staff is very friendly and nice environment. It’s off the main strip in Pittsburg but worth driving the extra few blocks.

Had the gorilla — at least the chimp — and it was AWESOME! REALLY wish Ahmad would open one in Joplin —

I’ll start with the good as a whole: Gorilla Nachos, Have some drink specials during the week that are good, quality of ingredients/​food/​condiments/​etc than most others. Bar area has many tv’s and fair amount of seating
Negatives: some of the prices are on the high side (wings especially), I always seem to have an abnormally long wait time when I come here.
In general terms I would say Chatters has average to above average food, poor service, above average bar area for sports viewing.
*Disclaimer*
This is just one incident from many trips to Chatters, and there are of course other, positive incidents, but this one was just a little bit ridiculous to us.
Chatters has been a snowball sliding down hill for the last few years now in my opinion. The service has gotten very poor over the past few years. I’ve always given them the benefit of the doubt since they are one of the few local establishments. Today though, our waitress was amazing, management and the cooks not so much. I went with a large party and the food took quite some time (which I have little complaint about since our party was so large.) One of the members in my party received a burger that was way undercooked, a member of my party then asked to speak to the owner to voice their concerns, another member of Chatters’ management came to the table and said the owner was unavailable. After the re-​cooked food was brought back out (by the owner who was said to be unavailable who also didn’t say anything to acknowledge the error). They did «make it right» by wiping that cost of that meal. The owner did end up talking to our table briefly as we left, but still made no admittance of error on his or his staff’s behalf saying they got very busy in the back (you are a restaurant, that will happen), and also said that they had a reception later and told his hostess/​receptionist not to take our reservation which was made early in the week, I think 4 days of preparation would be enough to handle two large reservations in one day.

I had the shrimp and tips the food was delivered quickly and prepared very well. The service is great and there’s never a shortage of people if you need to reach someone on the wait staff.

This is a very popular spot regardless of the reviews. Tortia soup was very good. I had three other people with me and they all enjoyed the food and drinks.

Service was great and food was pretty good. Fried pickles are a good appetizer and enough for the table. Draft beer is really good price — go for the larger (plastic) glass for an even better value.
Had the Maytag blue cheese encrusted Kansas City strip steak. Flavor was good and a big cut of meat. Good value.
Looks like a popular place and stays busy. Lots of TV’s for sports.

If your looking for good food and a place to have beer on the cheap go here. Only thing is it cost a shit ton for mixed drinks. If you are looking for low priced mixed drinks do not go here.

Went there three times… Good but prices are little high. Nothing special. O recommend the Pasta.

This was the second time we tried Chatters. This time was better than the first. This place is really popular. I’m not sure if the bar is more popular or the restaurant. It’s kind of split into two sections. It seemed to me that there were quite a few people taking advantage of the bar, so maybe that is more popular.
The employees were all very courteous and our waitress was the most attentive server that we have had in quite a while. She was all over everything. The food did take a little while to come out, but we were visiting with some good friends so we didn’t really mind too much.
The food is just alright in my opinion. The prices were reasonable. Chatters is just ok in my opinion. I like that it is a local place and supports the local university. The place is clean and the service is friendly, as I mentioned. I would go back and would enjoy it.

The food here is ok but the staff takes the cake. We sat at the bar and the bartender was fun and jovial, we enjoyed her company. I had actually written a good review on my phone but when i got my bill i noticed that they had charged me 15 bucks for 10 wings. Granted i thought that 10 bucks for 10 wings was excessive but 15 is just crazy! Yes i asked snd as it turns out, they had changed the price in the regisyer but not on the menu. Jesus how did s bar and grill gett so high falutin? They now have items on the menu aka novel that are $ 25 and up? Wow! That is insane!

Staff can’t handle the crowd. We were waiting for an hour to sit and waited another hour to get our food. There were a bunch of empty reserved tables but the staff told we cant seat there. And those seats remained empty until we finished our dinner. And some people in my group got wrong food and the server didn’t even ask for the replacements. People come here because this is the only restaurant serving this kind of American food in town. It’s just good for a small town.

Friendly place. The bar is separate from the dining area, so you can choose which atmosphere you prefer.
and 25 cents hot wings on Monday night!

This place is great! The portabello fries are so good :). I was very impressed with their cocktails as well!
