Be aware. CASH ONLY Loud place, very friendly local joint. Food is scratch made, not fast, but pretty good. Famous for their pork loin sandwich. Huge. Delicious. Checkout the handlebars on the bar. Prime rib tender medium rare just as ordered. A little cool. The au jus it swims in is very good. Creamy horseradish very good. Broasted potatoes good, potato wedges with a nice sour cream house made sauce. . Not a fan of margarine or tiny packages of Daisy sour cream. Hubby got honey bourbon sirloin pretty good for sirloin. Big loaded baked potato was very good he enjoyed the green pepper and mushrooms that came adorned with. Steamed broccoli with nice seasoning. Salad bar fair. Coleslaw is good. Tuna pasta salad a No for us. Romaine with brown edges another No go. Ranch and

We were pleasantly surprised when we sat down. This place was charming, had great drinks and so much space. My friend had such a great time that she bought a sweatshirt.

There's never a bad meal here and the drinks are always tasty. I highly recommend Taco Tuesday. The portions are huge and drool worthy. The taco (sans lettuce) is pictured here and their unique take on nachos are just as delicious!

Only 2nd time to Handlebars, both times the service and food were great. Small town bar atmosphere with high dollar type of food and service with reasonable prices. Your drink will not go dry and the wait for appetizers was not long considering how busy they were. The food arrived in perfect time after with finished the appetizers. It’s a little drive but have driven much farther for much worse food and service. Can’t wait to get the friends together again to make the trip.
