The Springs is Excelsior Springs' home-style kitchen — open seven days a week on Saint Louis Avenue, serving honest food made from scratch and portions that mean it. Come as a stranger, leave as a regular.
A Town Built on Springs
Excelsior Springs drew people for over a century with its natural mineral waters — and that spirit of welcome never really left. We planted ourselves right on Saint Louis Avenue because this town deserved a place to sit down and eat something genuinely good.
Food Made from Scratch
Chili made in-house, gravy from scratch, beef from Missouri farms — no shortcuts, no workarounds. When a plate lands in front of you here, you can taste that somebody actually cooked it.
Dishes Named for Neighbors
The Siloam Springs Waffle, the Regent Spring French Toast, the Saint Louis Ave Omelet, the Hitching Lot Breakfast — every name on this menu belongs to Excelsior Springs, not just to us.
The Legendary Tenderloin
Our breaded pork tenderloin sandwich hangs off the bun on both sides — and that's not a figure of speech. It's the sandwich people drive to Excelsior Springs for.
Come as a Stranger
Servers here get called out by name in guest reviews — that's not an accident, it's just how this place works. Whether you're a local or a first-timer, you'll leave feeling like a regular.
