Shortstop Bar & Grill

My favorite neighborhood go to. My boyfriend and I frequent here a lot. The food is great and the servers are amazing. It's the local hang out for a lot of regulars. It's def a small bar but it's great. The food is always delicious every time we go. I normally always order the BBQ Ring Burger. They have food and drink specials everyday. Tuesdays and Thursdays they have bingo at 6:30 and on sat and Sunday, 4:30 and 6:30 so it does get a bit crowded around then.

My first time here. Met some friends for lunch and visiting. Our service was good the wings and tots I had were also good. This place has been around for years not sure why I never have went here but I'll plan to come back!

I have another review that's a bit different. Last month, I drove over to Shortstop Bar & Grill to pick up an order for pickles from Fire and Ice Pickles. Michelle is a server at this eatery and has a side pickle business.She has a few pickup locations. On this particular day, she was there in the afternoon. I headed over to pick up my order on my lunch break, which was roughly a 25-minute drive northbound from where I was in Bloomington.Her pickle business started when she made batches of pickles and shared them with customers at the restaurant. They were such a hit that she created her own business. Her pickles continue to be popular. It was easy finding the parking lot where she was. I parked my car and she came over to say hi. Before I left the hotel, we texted, so she knew that I was on my way.She was friendly and nice to chat with. I got my bottle of pickles and thanked her. She accepts cash only. Luckily, I had the exact amount with me.It took me just over a day to go through the entire bottle. Part of me felt that I should have got another bottle. Her pickles are tangy and garlicky, with a bit of heat that gets you at the end of crunching each pickle slice. I've never had anything quite like her pickles. So good!You basically place an order through a Google spreadsheet. The demand is high such that there's a one-month order backlog. I had to change my pickup date and time a handful of times due to timing pickup times with when I was in town. She was understanding and accommodating.I highly recommender her pickles. I am on her waiting list to place another order.I had thought about picking up food at this eatery while I was here. It serves burgers, tater tots, and more. I wasn't in the mood that day (weird, I know). I hope to place an order the next time I'm there and feel like a good burger.(67)

If you haven't been to shortstop for a hamburger than this is you're next spot. The good: The bang bang shrimp are pretty solid. The sauce around them is heavy, but tastes great. 4/5 The works Bacon cheeseburger is no joke. It's one of the nicest looking hamburgers I have eaten. it was a little pink inside and had a little tasty fat grease that came out of it. 4.5/5Tha bad: you do not get many bang bang shrimp, so it would be a nice appetizer to share between two people. If you share it with more than two people, then it feels like a tease and that's not very nice. The tater tots were slightly overdone. Tip: try parking on the side or back. The front parking lot gets packed and you can get In a jam.

This is a Coon Rapids staple!! It's a real small local bar and usually is pretty packed after 4:00pm. I recommend ANY of the burgers, and YES you want the tots. The burgers take awhile because they are made fresh. The tots are always crispy and soooo much better than home tots... I don't know why! It can be a little loud because it's small and packs up pretty quickly. If you're in the area and want a delicious burger look no further.. this is your place.

Great food, service, specials, and selection! The variety is excellent for all dietary needs. II'd like more options for mock tails.

owners do not respect customers and employees no matter how long or loyal they have been

They have excellent food I recommend. I usually get cheese burgers there which usually do not disappoint.

Good food nice service. The burgers are absolutely ginormous!!!! Bingo, meat raffle and karaoke all in one night.

First time at this place and I will definitely be back! Won the meat raffle ( 6 lbs of bacon!!) . Drinks are cheap and just watered enough. Cool lil spot.
