Burgers were absolutely amazing. entire table was extatic about the flavour. Yeah that's a clean plate. worth the visit/trip. not a fan of the tablet tipping jargon. waiter was new and very friendly and was happy learning the job and did a good job helping us figure some alcohol drinks.

We traveled a ways here to see, "Show Me Your Hits," for my daughters' 21st birthdays. Our evening could not have gone any more perfect and I wish I could thank everyone involved. People were very nice and polite and paid attention to not sit in the way of our view of the band. A very loud shout out to security, especially David, who was amazing at keeping a peaceful atmosphere inside, watching over the ladies, and being pretty discreet if there was a problem that needing addressing. We felt safe the whole time we were there, and my kids had the most perfect first bar experience possible. Our server was also very polite and very attentive. Food was great. I also appreciate you gentlemen that very politely danced with my daughters in passing in a respectful, fun manner. I love when people can all come together and have a good time as a group and that's exactly what happened last night and I thank you all!

Babes allowed us to host a fundraiser for a Lakeville family, and not only were they welcoming and fantastic to work with, they were supportive, fun, encouraging and provided great service! Bree, and Emma and their crew went above and beyond for us. I’m so grateful all the offered us! Please take the time to visit Babes and try their menu and meet their staff to help us say a giant thank you!

Wonderful food and great service. The light above my booth was a little bright, so I asked my server if they would, and I would be able to dim it. Yes! They were, and that made it even better. They are currently remodeling, but that didn't slow down the servers or the cooks. The food was great and the severice was too! Highly recommend! I didn't have the wings, but they looked delicious!

Saw a great band at Babe's on Friday. Joy Ride really rocked the place! I would have mixed the sound a little better so you could hear the keyboard and voices better, but that wasn't the band's fault. The guitar solos were awesome and their lead singer really belted out some amazing vocals! Had dinner before - cheese curds and fried pickles were great apps. The royal burger, the loaded brisket and the chicken wrap were awesome choices and our server was the best! She was on top of it, getting food out to us unbelievably fast and keeping our drinks full all night long! Portions are really big!

Babes is the old hometown bar. It's where the local hang and it's always really busy. They have a full menu and a full bar. Tuesday nights is open mic night. They also have live bands on a regular basis. We were there to see an amazing new band Lavender Whiskey. Wow are they amazing!
