Brian's Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Stillwater

I liked Brian's a lot. We went there for the first time just this last Monday on the 28th and I was really glad they were open on Monday since so many places are closed on Mondays in the Winter in downtown Stillwater. Our waitress was very friendly, but not fake, bubbly friendly; just regular friendly (does that make sense? I hate bubbly friendly). I can see the management/owner pays attention to detail; the little things go a long way. I ended up getting a spicy chicken sandwich, which was very good; it came with chips and the chips were seasoned fantastically.

And you never know when you'll run into interesting characters, like a man with a pet rabbit, adding a touch of unexpected charm to an already...

We booked the third floor last Saturday night for a pre-wedding line dancing party for approx 70 people. I can't say enough good things about the service and the bartender. Sarah helped us with the menu, floral delivery, music, selecting our bartender (shout out to Giulia) and every detail. She was responsive and helpful every step of the way! We planned the party from NC so her responsiveness was especially appreciated. The taco bar was very tasty and the cheese curds were a big hit with our guests who had never had them before. Suggestion would be to make sure you have name tags for your guests to prevent bar crashers from creeping up from the floors below - worked like a charm. Can't say enough good things about Sarah, Giulia and...
