Decent food, but nothing to go out of your way for. My husband ordered onion rings and received onion straws instead. They are not the same thing just FYI. Clean dining room, except the slippery grease-covered floor. Disgusting restrooms. Cashier chick wasn’t exactly friendly. My family has gone to Babe’s for many years and it definitely isn’t what it used to be; but, I guess all things change. Overall the food is decent and I’d go back if I had no other plans/options.

Passing thru Joplin– stopped because the parking lot was packed and the drive thru was long. Not disappointed. Had to have their trademark — the chubby cheese with bacon. Great burger, excellent onion rings. Prices more than reasonable. Stop here– you’ll love it.

A local place that has great food and ice cream. Try a vanilla shake and fried green peppers.

Everyone needs to get the Chubby Cheese Basket at least once. It is a really greasy cheese burger and fries and is wonderful. Too many calories to count? most likely, but so good! If you feel like some delicious greasy, wonderful food just stop by Babe’s drive thou and order a Chubby Cheese Basket. I have never been disappointed.

Stopped in for dinner on a Saturday night. We had the«chubby cheeseburger,» onion rings, and suzie q’s. Everything was delicious. The onion rings are awesome. The only problem during our visit was that the dining room was quite dirty. Someone needed to grab a broom and there were tables that needed to be wiped off. Would have gotten five stars if the place was clean, but the food(and the great value) still give Babes a high grade.

Babe’s «chubby cheese» isn’t really my favorite type of food to begin with, as I don’t eat red meat. But I generally appreciate a good«greasy spoon» now and then, and find something on the menu to rave about even in the roughest of those establishments. My mate and I visited this particular Babe’s a few months back and it was a decent experience. We returned over the weekend and it was pretty awful. I ordered the«fish n’ chips plate» for around six dollars and was stunned when I received my food. Two TINY pieces of fish coated in the saltiest batter I’ve ever had, on a bed of bizarre homemade potato chips. Now I understand we’re not in the UK but seriously — potato CHIPS? Even the cheapest backwoods American diners refer to fried fish and french fries as «fish n’ chips». But apparently not Babe’s. When I tasted the chips, they were horribly salty too. Extremely disappointed with the fish(which tasted nothing like fish at all and rather like a chunk of salt block might), I decided to take the potato chips up to the counter and ask for a different side. Seeing the higher price of fried mushrooms(which is justified), I proceeded to explain my surprise about the non-fry«chips» to the counter girl and ask if I could possibly trade ‘em in for a discount on an order of fried mushrooms. She became really defensive and weird and asked me to repeat my request FOURTIMES and she still did not understand what I meant. She finally grabbed a guy from the back and he immediately knew what I meant on all counts and made me an order of fried mushrooms for free. While that was decent customer service I don’t think it should have taken five explanations and two employees to remedy the situation, and the fish was still pathetic and barely edible. I also find their soft drinks to be 90% crushed ice and that just doesn’t work for me. Less important(but still notable), their ladies restroom was absolutely repulsive and the plasticky walls had some scary stains all over them that were clearly several years(decades?) old. Due to all of this, I won’t return. The 2 star rating is because friends still love their chubby cheeseburgers and my boyfriend’s fish sandwich(with actual fish on it) wasn’t half bad.

Obviously, this place is not healthy, but that’s not the point. It’s delicious beyond reason, and that makes it worth the grease every once in a while. I love their onion rings, and the cherry limeade is the classic thing to go with a nice Chubby Cheese basket… definitely hits the spot!

Healthy? No. Tasty? Yes. The food at the Babe’s restaurants is slightly different. At this one, they have catfish sandwiches and homemade potato chips, both of which are excellent. Service seems to be much faster than the one on Maiden Lane, but everything is still made to order.

Heart attack waiting to happen WHILE eating your food! Typical grease pit, greasy food galore. Explains why Anthony Bourdain said Fuck this!

Suggested by a friend and we were not disappointed. The burgers, onion rings, and thick shakes were great. All for a good price. The only negative was that someone took the trash out only as far as just outside the front door. This was quickly rectified when we told the staff.
