O'Briens Place — Restaurant in Springfield

Homemade spaghetti sauce from scratch was awesome. C(K)athy(ie) was a fine bartender. Fish (ordered frozen from a company, but actually suitable) and straight shoestring style fries nicely done and tarter had a good flavor (a small bit of dill) and automatically served with malt vinegar. An off the wall drink was made for me (several times ;) due to it's tastiness. I highly recommend the spaghetti available, all you can eat that particular night. Friendly everyone really. Didn't play pool, but tables look fine and all cues I saw had fairly new tips. And a fresh chalk was on the table (didn't look for hand chalk). One thing I miss about these places (from long ago lol) are punch boards... I guess they've gone out of style. A separate...

We were in town visiting and needed a place to eat at nearly 11pm. We didn't want fast food and after striking out at a couple other places, we tried O'Brien's on a suggestion from another bar that had already closed down their kitchen.

The food was really good, drinks well poured and the price was incredibly reasonable. My son had the chicken wrap and that thing could have easily fed two people! Good music, comfortable atmosphere. Walked away full and happy. We'll be back next time...

Both burgers were wrong, one was burnt and fries were cold. I already stopped going there for video lottery cause they keep the change from my tickets every time. I lose money and they take my change too. Atmosphere was good and customers...
