The Heidelberg

A popular place for Mizzou students (especially those who enjoy drinking). The BOGO appetizers during happy hour are a great deal. Sadly, the chicken wings are not BOGO. I was also disappointed in the club skins as there was a lack of melted cheese and the turkey cubes were oddly large. The staff is quite friendly and attentive. They also have a nice banquet room that can be reserved.

Great food. Fun atmosphere. I bet it was even more fun pre-Covid. The porch was closed and the party room shut down. It does not look like they have put a lot back into the building. But it is a campus hangout so it probably gets abused quite a bit on the weekends. Service was good and personal-able. The German potato salad was very vinigary, I am told that is authentic, by my German wife. My mouth is watering now just writing about it. There is a lot of history here. You can’t really say you are a Colombian, if you have not eaten here or had a beer from the Heidelberg! Came back 7-10-22. Some improvements have been made. That is all that I can say.

Not a bad place to grab drinks and eat some average bar food. None of the food really stood out to me, like something authentic or original. pretty much the same things as anywhere. Still wishing they had the half a star I would give this place 3 1/2 stars. If you do stay around the downtown area it would be a good place to drink.

Now, let’s keep this straight … it’s a bar, and a somewhat infamous spot near campus historically known for its bar more so than it’s dining…. It is what it is. Since my days being here on occasion, it seems roomier and brighter. The drinks came quickly, we had ample local beer options, and honestly for it being a game day (right after loss to Boston college) it was adequate but we lost the waitress for quite a while while they did shots and we had to get back to the swim meet. So service was ok, then not. Beers were good and cold. Appetizers were appetizers. So, in review it’s like a cleaner, more spacious and brighter version. And it smells better. Lol, but still has same vibe. Plus one for nostalgia.
