Harbell's - Springfield
Harbell's
Description
Tucked away in a bustling downtown, this restaurant presents a mixed bag of experiences. While some diners rave about the wings—especially the smoked variety—many have faced hurdles such as delayed service and underwhelming dishes. Appetizers like chips and salsa fall flat, while service inconsistencies leave patrons feeling neglected. The atmosphere is lively, ideal for sports fans, but staffing shortages detract from the overall experience. Despite these challenges, the establishment shows potential with its robust drink specials and friendly staff. While some vow to return, others remain hesitant, marking it as a spot worth considering but not without reservations.

My wife and I recently visited Springfield and were driving around on Friday evening and found this place. What a wonderful bar. The staff was very friendly, great atmosphere and plenty TVs that I’m sure you will find something of interest. Got there late so wasn’t able to get food but will certainly go back again and will recommend to others.
I would not recommend working at this restaurant under the current owner. I worked at this restaurant for two nights a week for a little over a month (totaling around 40 hours at $14/hr) but only received 10 of those hours in pay. After working here for a week, we were issued a cease and desist order because the restaurant did not have a valid license for 11 months. Shortly after, I received my first paycheck and it was only for half of the hours I had worked. I brought this up to the owner, who promised to fix the mistake and pay me the correct amount, but he never did. The next day, he avoided me and then left without addressing the issue. The paycheck I received still only reflected the incorrect amount, so I decided to quit that night after cleaning and closing the kitchen. I am owed at least 30 hours of pay, totaling $420.
Harbell's eating has become better and better, and only more so! wow! so much love is placed in this food. to love these new menu items. chefs kissing?
I ordered a spicy Bloody Mary, but it was way too hot. I had to ask the bartender to remake it. I enjoy spicy food and can usually handle the heat, yet I still had heartburn from just a few sips even after nearly two hours. The menu has also changed— they’ve removed the quesoburger. Honestly, nothing on the new menu looked appealing.
The only positive aspect of my visit to Harbell's was the waitress. The chicken wings were undercooked, and the appetizers I ordered took over 30 minutes to arrive, arriving cold. I had been there before the pandemic and enjoyed great food, but now the quality of the menu is very disappointing. This will be my last time dining at Harbell's.
