Prairie St. Bar & Tap

Chill vibe, lots of regulars, so super safe space for anyone that stops in. Attentive staff & great specials. Great patio, smoking allowed outside.

Everyone is so nice here and we've been back so many time. The workers already remember our names and our drinks and they invite us to their events, and brunches. It's like being with friends you've known for years and so laidback and inclusive. It's by far one of my favorite bars

It's open Sunnite. They 'craft' martinis. They have a full bar. There's searing for (at least) eight AT the bar. It's 'cozy (enough).'

Great bar, good folks and nice to have a place like this that isn't on Dickson. Chill place to swing by on the way home.

We have been here several times, and love the location and the casual vibe. This afternoon was very disappointing. The place was not busy. We ordered some drinks, started a tab, and our drinks went dry. Bartender was standing at the end of the bar looking at his phone. He made his way back down to us, and my husband asked him a question about a drink. It turned into this weird psychoanalysis session in which the bartender was questioning the motives of my questioning husband, and all the while I'm sitting there with an empty glass. As a former worker in the restaurant industry, I'm very mystified at how this is happening. They finished their discussion, and then the server asked, "Do you have a tab?" We had given him our card on the first drink. This made me think that MAYBE there was something else going on here. Fortunately for me, a second bartender arrived, and she very kindly passed by, noticed my empty glass and asked if I'd like another. Husband, a former restaurant manager, and I were talking about this at dinner. What if: the bartender was on our drinks as they got low? What if, as we were trained, the bartender offered an upsale to try something new, or something special? We would have bit. There is so much opportunity in this town for good service and upselling; quality service and return customers. This afternoon fell very, very short of that mark, and I hate it for the owners. If I were an owner, I'd make it my business to be present off and on and to be talking with some tables to find out about their experiences. I'm a fan of the development in this part of town, especially on West St leading up to the new expansion of the library...let's put some muscle into this place and make it a gem!

Maybe we are blessed with options in this area, but the fact of the matter is there are plenty of better alternatives to grab a beer and hang out with friends than this place. It seems like an establishment on the Greenway would generate its own buzz, but you're usually looking at an empty tap room and facing in an uncomfortable conversation with the bartender. There's an old school cathode ray tube TV and a Nintendo game cube in the tap room, and I've never seen the TV on or folks using the area. Weird details like this speak to how the bar struggles to settle on which crowd it wants to welcome. Maybe it's for you?
Check it out if you've never been, but if you're looking for a place to grab a pint along the Greenway, you might be better served to stop by Fossil Cove or Columbus House. If you are in the immediate area, Crisis Brewery is a more appealing stop and brews their own beer.

We walked over from Woodstone Pizza after dinner for some drinks and to check it out (it shares a back parking lot with Woodstone). The selection of drinks was good from local beers to cocktails. Food was available from the food truck Big Sexy. It's located right on the bike trail so I see it as a spot to stop and fuel up if you are doing an ale trail ride.

Super cool and chill environment. Such a nice break from the barrage of Greek life and college kids on Dickson street. You can sit down and enjoy good beer while having a conversation. Fayetteville needed a place like this!

It was cool until they fired the guy who designed it and setup up the whole place one month after it opened. It's a shame that they fired the guy who has been bringing in 10-20% more ticket sales for local shows at their other bar for YEARS with zero pay for that. They have lost their minds. Also the food truck their doesn't even begin to look "sexy".

Rude. Bartender absolutely rudest I've ever experienced. Cannot believe the owner would tolerate this. Ordered a beer got a ton of attitude, no smile, no hello, no may I help you. Turned and walked out. Too many good Fayetteville staples rather than put up with that. Without customers who are willing to give you their money, the road is bumpy and short.
