Ok, let’s start with Oh. My. God.
This place is great!
Located in downtown Springfield with on street parking. If you have to walk a couple of blocks it’s still worth it.
Hubby and I ate lunch here after a couple of hours at the aquarium. I was craving a good burger and they were amazing!!
I had the “don’t go bacon my heart”. Oh so good. Hubby had Cowboy Carl, he loved it! Both were juicy and had great flavors. We shared a order of Apple and hickory smoked French fries seasoned with sea salt and pepper, yes smoked fries! Again Oh. My. God.
We love those fries!
I HAD to try one of those shakes. Was leaning towards the Elvis, but got the only adults only shake, the Sugar Daddy.
Again Oh. My. God.
Trust me, you HAVE to eat here!!!
We spent around $35.00 and got full! Worth the money in my book!
They play rock music, it’s not too loud but be forewarned, we loved the music too.
One of our new favorite places now.

This is a great burger joint! For my drink I got the sweet child of mine for my drink it was ok could use more alcohol got the Cowboy Carl for my meal it was good it had a burger with porks and onion straws. They could use 1/2 the onion straws so you can eat it like a burger. Wife had the hot dog said it was good and we had the salt and pepper fries the fries are very crispy nicely done.

The truffle fries are amazing! Definitely a shareable size! The burgers were good, not a shareable size but they were very filling. The only reason this didn’t get 5 stars was that the service was very slow. We got the fries as an appetizer and when we asked for sauces to go with them we didn’t get them until after our food arrived. Our waiter was very scarce, we saw him when we ordered and when he delivered our food and that was basically it. It also took him a while to bring us our check. If you get a good server I would say this place is worth it.

Three of us stopped in for an early lunch on a Monday. Ordered up some salt 'n' vinegar fries and some truffle 'n' parmesan fries. Both were excellent. The jamaican me crazy burger and blues brothers burger were both very good. Third burger was the don't go bacon my heart ordered with a gluten free bun, at an additional charge of $1.75, which was so dry that it was not eaten. But the burger was good. We ordered an Elvis shake for dessert. About 5 minutes later the server came back and said they were out of custard and couldn't make shakes. I am dumbfounded as to how a restaurant with Shakes in its name, could possibly be out of the main ingredient to make shakes. This accounts for the Average rating.
I'm sure I will return, but will call ahead to make sure they can make shakes.

Delicious juicy hamburgers, tried the American beauty, two 4oz patties of wagyu beef, & the blues burger which had blue cheese smothered in 2 patties. Parmesan & truffle fries rank up with some of the best I’ve had, nice & crispy, I am so tired of eating soggy fries at other restaurants, these were awesome & server brought out 6-7 dipping sauces to try.
Had to try the shakes, non alcoholic during a work day, the Elvis with banana, peanut butter, & chocolate, & a strawberry shortcake, both made with custard. Service was great & friendly,

This is not your typical burger joint at all! They are gourmet burgers and they are absolutely delicious! Also, the different flavors of fries are beyond yummy. Ask for a sample platter of all the different dipping sauces for your fries. A platter of fries is so generous that 4 of us shared them. The shakes are fantastic too! I go there every time I go to Springfield.

This is such a great restaurant. I’m not one to write reviews unless a restaurant is top notch, but we were so very impressed with the food and service here. I had the Cowboy Carl burger and my wife had the Wagyu burger, both were fantastic. The atmosphere is relaxing with classic rock music softly playing in the background.
We highly recommend the Black Sheep restaurant. We’ll be back for sure.

I had the Cowboy Carl and a Purple Haze shake. My wife had the Veggin' Out and Jungle boogie cocktail. We shared an order of apllewood bacon smoked fries. We couldn't decide on the dipping sauce so our waitress brought us a sample of each.
The burgers were good, but we could have eaten just the fries. They were the best food item I have had in a long time, and the best french fries on the planet. Each dipping sauce was amazing on them.
Our waitress was kind friendly and professional, and it was a fun environment. I could eat there all the time, but sadly we live in the Wichita, Ks area.
I would recommend them to anyone. Next to us was a table with several kids that were enjoying their shakes. Awesome place.

Was visiting this past weekend and my friend's family chose to pick up dinner from here. Did not disappoint! There was nothing ugly about the Ugly Cheeseburger and their fries were very crispy and tasty. If you like garlic, get the Truffle Fries. I had the Sea Salt fries, and they were excellent. We like supporting smaller businesses, especially now, and I wish we found this sooner. Check it out

The food was great! Our waitress, Sarah, was great too! This was our first time ever coming here (we’re from out of town) and picked this place based on reviews. Everything is “a la carte” so you have to get your fries separate from your burger if you want fries. We had the Parmesan truffle fries and they were delicious. I tried them with all the different sauces. The fries are definitely shareable. I then had the You’re Bacon my Heart burger and it was delicious. The burgers are very tall so you either have to have a big mouth or squeeze it down to fit. My husband decided he wanted dessert. We thought it was going to be a regular dessert but it’s a shake, which is totally fine and totally makes sense (given the name of the place). It was better than an Oreo blizzard. Sarah had some great recommendations and was friendly. She checked on us regularly as well so she made the experience better. The only downside is it’s loud in there which didn’t work too great for my dad but everyone in our party liked the food and service. This is a great stop if your new or a regular.

I love burgers. They are one of my favorite things, but it's hard to find a good one. This was our second time here and it was as good as the first. There were 6 of us and each one of us got a different burger and every single one was amazing. We got the hey sweetie! (very sweet) and you are smokin’ with pulled pork (very spicy) fries and we all shared them and still had some left over. Their portions do not disappoint. This is my go to place if I want the best bleu cheese burger on the planet (even if I am 3 hours away!) I did get the strawberry fields forever non-alcoholic shake and my daughter got the alcoholic version. Neither lived up to the hype we had in our heads for it. Lots of icy bits and dried cake. But the rest of the food lived up to our expectations and then some.

My Son and I came here Thursday 1/05/23 at 5:20 pm. There was No wait to be Seated. Our Server, Madison V, was Excellent. She Explained the Menu Very Well. We both Ordered Burgers and Fries I got the " Born in the USA" Burger and Salt n Pepper Fries. My Son got the "Springphilly", and Smoked Fries. These were the BEST Burgers and Fries, That I have Ever Had. Service and Food was Excellent.

Visited here with my Mom and Sisters. Was a small wait to be seated but other than that the staff was friendly and attentive to all needs and questions regarding the menu. My mom claimed that these were the best fries she has ever had. She liked them plain but I liked the variety of sauces and the Garlic Mayo was a table favorite. I also got the burger with Dr. Pepper pulled Pork on it and egg and my goodness was it sinfully delicious.

We just returned from a visit to Springfield. We asked our hotel where to go for good food and they recommended Black Sheep. They knocked it out of the park! I had the Ugly cheeseburger, my husband had the Foodie, and my daughter had the Don't go bacon my heart. All were flavorful and delicious!
We also had shakes. I had a non-alcoholic Oreo, and my husband and daughter both had the Elvis. They were so Amazing! Our server, Caroline was so great! She was attentive and friendly. The food came quickly and she also let us know that there were some drink orders ahead of ours and that there was only one bartender working, but that as soon as they were ready she would get them to us (it wasn't more than 10 minutes). The other thing I enjoyed was the college vibe. It was an upbeat place with a good energy, even on a Sunday evening. Thanks so much for a great meal!

Skip the traditional popular places and eat here! The shake was amazing (they even split it for us). The burgers were phenomenal and the french fry portions are HUGE (and tasty)! Our server (Caitlin) was just the sweetest. Attentive enough without hovering. There was a table nearby that was a little high maintenance and she handled it like a champ. 10/10 would eat here again when in the area!
