Love going here. The atmosphere, food, prices, bands, music and karaōke… I will do it one of these days! and no one cares who you are! We are all people wanting to live and not waste anymore time! But the bathrooms need help! Face it. I don’t care if its new, BUT keep it clean!

Ok the perks of this place are good food and live music. Now why they only get two stars… the owner charges more when there’s live music. A jack and coke goes from being $ 3.50 to $ 5.50. Now I understand it cost money to have music but I’ve worked in the bar business for a long time and this is silly. I would prefer to pay a cover if I’m helping you pay for a band than be up charged on my drinks. I casually asked my waitress about this and she must have said something to the owner. He approached me about it and was not very nice. This was his mistake I was with 12 other girls so we finished our drinks and promptly took are business somewhere else. It’s a shame too based on the service of my waitress we may have stayed the rest of the night.

Cute bar. Bathroom need to be cleaned. Especially the men’s when you can walk by it and the«perfumes» wafting out could kill a cow dead in it’s tracks. The patrons seem nice enough. It is a biker bar but not a hells angels type. Drinks watered down more cranberry then vodka but the food was AWESOME some of the best wings I have ever had. Smokey spicy goodness. The band that night was well a bunch of mid life crisers thinking they could sing. People started walking out. They were awful.

It’s a hole in the wall. It’s a biker bar. Beware of this before going in, but since you’re forewarned, put your big girl/boy pants on and go! Not only is the good CHEAP, it’s f-ing delicious. Half pound burgers for $ 1.29(that’s with cheese because who in the hell eats a burger sans cheese? Not this girl!) The girls have gone to a Hooters-esque look, but I don’t give a damn. I’m into dudes, particularly my boyfriend, so as long as the service is good, eh. If you’re a female, good-to-just decent looking, you will probably get hit on. It happens, but I’ve never encountered someone who I feared was trying to roofie me. I love that they have some form of entertainment most nights of the week, too. The missing star is because there are a couple regular creepers that happen to call Schatze’s home. My other gripe is that the bathrooms could use attention. They were remodeled several years ago but need it again, and my final issue is only that they measure every shot. I understand they’re there to make money but if you want an amaretto sour that tastes more like the drink and less like straight sour mix, you’d better order a double. This place gets crazy packed, but for the most part, there’s plenty of parking between the two lots. The outdoor patio is also nice. It’s heated in the winter for the smokers and is covered all year round for an additional comfortable seating option. Waitresses regularly visit the outdoor area, so being served isn’t an issue. Jamie – the Sunday bartender rocks. Go see her! She’s only served us a couple times but she’s fantastic.

This place was pretty fun for a Wednesday night. Enjoyed the nonsmoking environment and local crowd. There were a lot of singers, so it took a little while to actually sing, but it was a fun night.

When it comes to catching a quick drink or keeping a barstool warm all night long schatzes is one establishment you must consider spending your time and coin. The food is way more than what you would expect for the price and believe it or not, it’s delicious. Think of it as «Fast Eddies» but in your neighborhood. $ 0.39 peel and eat shrimp, $ 1.29 ½ lb. cheeseburgers, the list goes on. Great staff, beautiful bartenders, and genuinely attentive security, Schatzes is worth at least three or four visits.

Schatze’s is a neighborhood bar that’s been in existance for as long as I can remember. It’s a small joint, with a cozy bar, occupied by rowdy locals! The bar maids and waitresses are friendly. The food is, well, bar food. And for bar food, it’s great! Their burgers are awesome, and their onion rings are great! They have lunch/dinner specials that just can’t be touched, price-wise! Last week I had a pork steak plate, with two sides(cole slaw and beans), for $ 4.99! The also serve peel-and-eat shrimp, for .35 each. I know Fast Eddie’s shrimp are cheaper, but Schatze’s sells only jumbo shrimp, and they are huge! Schatze’s features entertainment on Wednesdays and on the weekend. Usually Karaōke, or a live band. The place is small, and when the entertainment is happening, the place gets crowded quick! They have an outdoor patio, but usually full of the smoking crowd! Okay, Schatze’s is a dive. But it’s a great dive! The place is popular with bikers, but I wouldn’t call it a «biker bar». Nevertheless, it’s a nice scooter stop after a long day in the saddle. Definitely a place to go for a quick bite, and ice-cold beer! TV abound, so not a bad place to catch a Blues or a Cards game!

Schatze’s makes me miss Belleville! Let’s be honest, it not the nicest establishment. It’s quite trashy, but you know what? Everyone needs a guilty pleasure. Schatze’s happened to be mine while I lived in the St. Louis area. Regarding their food, you can’t find anything cheaper! The quality ranges. Burgers are burgers. Brats are brats. I will say that their peel-and-eat shrimp are surprisingly flavorful and fresh when you consider the proximity to the ocean. The fact that they keep their food cheap is something I consider noteworthy. They don’t let you have to-go orders since they want you there drinking, of course, but I see no problem with that. They keep many of my favorite beers on tap. If I recall, they had Boulevard. This did not seem like too big of a deal at the time, but as I now live far far away from the Kansas City home of boulevard, it is impossible to find, which makes me miss Schatze’s even more. Buzztime trivia… silly. Karaōke… shameless. Skimpy waitresses… maybe a little trashy. A good time… most certainly so long as you get in the right state of mind!

Definitely the cheapest place to eat! You have to buy a drink(doesn’t have to be alcohol) for their food. I went one day when their burgers were 50 cents, for real meat! The place itself is a dive, but the service is decent. It does take a while for your food to be prepared as you receive your food in order, however, you can sit at a table and wait. Lunchtime is kid friendly. They even have one high chair in the place. For me it was an order of french fries, a hot dog, and some chili which is decent with one drink for a total of $ 4.70 you just can’t beat the price!

I can’t speak for the people there but the burger is the best you will have. I have lived in KC, South Carolina, and Dallas and I still have not found a burger that is anywhere close. To top it off, it is only $ 1.29! The crowd can be rough, though, so visit for lunch to stay safe.

You’re takin’ her with ya? Being from that side of the river, I’ve driven past Schatze’s once or twice, and thought it was the shitty yet lovable hole in the wall local bar that Belleville people spent many a night getting wasted in. However, after a recent unplanned stop there, this mirage was destroyed as fast as bobby barstool can chug down a beer. The waitresses here are dressed up like wannabe Hooters girls on a bad, street crime riddled night scene in a special episode of Law and Order SVU. To get food, you place an order from a snack bar, that is literally a different bar than the bar, and a little dude fries up your food and gives you a number. Drunk and lurking dudes stared at me from across the room at the bar bar. a man popped into the back door behind where I was sitting and yelled at me, WHOOHOOO! Surprised, I said. hi? YOUDIDITWRONG, he said, then walked away. It wasn’t until my friend told me that the local Chester the Molester just walked in. Sparing you the details, by this time know that I didn’t want to share breathing space with this man any longer. And, making sure that Schatze’s will always remain a remnant of a bad memory, a shard of that bad part of a dream that forever haunts you, as we walked out, my friend through the door and I almost through to safety, one of the leering lurches leaned back in his sleeveless jean shirt and asked, in a voice loud enough for the entire contents of the den to hear, «YATAKINHERWITHYA???» Run, run for the hills little bunny, run! And all the way to the car I ran.
