Trade Winds Pub & Eatery

Food was really good. Staff felt flustered and scattered. I hope they stay busy and can staff up. I'll definitely be back. I was worried they wouldn't have food for the kids but the kids menu was pretty good.

2/2024 update: new specials same great servive.
Service was great and so was food. Really enjoy the fair/river fries. Try the pork tenderloin its awesome.

This place is a real gem in Springfield. They have a Chef, I know it is a bar but I am going to call the him a Chef because he is actually cooking real food from scratch with real ingredients and custom recipes. The prices are low, so low you might question the quality but the quality is outstanding.

This isn't your usual Springfield restaurant serving you reheated frozen food from Sysco or GFS. They hand batter the mushrooms (hard to find if you live fried mushrooms), and the chicken strip. The burgers are amazing and juicy, perfect ratios of fat to meat content. The bread is outstanding. The specialty breads like the jalapeños cornbread is a real interesting treat. The cheese sauce is a garlic cheese sauce that is different from the normal here and a real delight. The French fries are amazing. They coke with salt and pepper on them for that added special touch.

The servers are friendly and attentive. The draft drink specials are great.

They have plenty of outdoor seating and a window you can order from outside if you are so inclined.

The only downside is they stop taking food order at 8pm. Other than that this place is absolutely perfect.

I highly recommend the tackle box! Delicious catfish, pollock and shrimp. The special drink- "the school bus" was delightful as well!

Even showing up 50 minutes before they closed, still had an amazing experience. Three Pigs sandwich was absolutely delicious. Their appetizers tasty as could be

Let me say upfront, I am NOT a Horseshoe fan. Nope. Not at all

HOWEVER, after trying their special Cinco de Mayo Mexican platter, I will be back the next time they offer it as it was delicious. From the sauce to the ingredients AND the presentation, it was delicious.

And while I have stated many times that Horseshoes are a waste of good French fries, the sauce and fries were most excellent!

Food, service and price all great!!!! Salmon BLT was excellent. Top notch service....definitely a go back to!!!!

Italian beef was great! Also 217 food week Mexican horseshoe was great too!!

Wife and I dined in on Tuesday night for the first time. We shared the salmon blt and the 217 burger week burger. Both were fantastic and the wife is looking forward to a return trip for the salmon. Service was 👍👍

We show up for the salmon blt!!!
The best on the menu!

Captain's Burger. We also enjoyed cheese curds, breaded mushrooms, and chicken potsickers. Awesomesauce!

I’m new to the area and have grown very suspicious of local restaurant rankings (I’m looking at you Chatham cafe) so I was wary about eating here but the food was outstanding. It’s clear that good food is a priority here. Whole family was happy.

Wow, what a great dinner. Fantastic service and good food. Had the chilli cheese dogs for dinner. They were outstanding! Our server was also the bartender. She was only one waiting on tables too. She did a fantastic job! Also the prices might be some of the cheapest in town. We highly recommend tradewinds! Only wish I would have remembered to take picture of dinner.

Great food. Loved their French fries. Good price. Good service.

Amazing food! My kids also were playing the claw game and were very disappointed when they did not win. Worker was very nice and claimed he had one twice earlier and gave them both prizes. My kids were ecstatic! Great deals on beer! Their pork tenderloin is the best. Definitely will go back!

Haven't ate here yet,but will tomorrow!!! Im just having a drink and have been watching the food come out and im impressed!!! It looks amazing and hearing from the other customers its as good as it looks!!! The tenderloins are huge!!!! A pony shoe alone could feed 2 people!!! Fresh cut fries everyday!!!

Waitress awesome it was clean.. tasted like grease was burnt or old... food was not bad...

Rather unassuming from outside, but we were happy we went inside. Tenderloin was much better than I've had at other restaurants! Not many people there, so it was rather quiet. Waiter was very friendly. Prices and portions were good.

Food was excellent even semi warm. service was slow but they were really busy had 2 servers and 1 person in kitchen.

Them FRIES!! Hand cut cooked to perfection and seasoned just right!! Had the breaded tenderloin and it was also off the chain! Seriously in my top 5 for tenderloins!
