The beauty of a great bloody mary is that it's as unique as the person who orders it. Whether they want it spicy or tangy, spiked with vodka or tequila, or crowned with a juicy piece of shrimp, Springfield voted JP Kelly's Pub as the best place to start their weekend with this iconic brunch cocktail.
While you can order a bloody mary any time, there's a full bloody mary bar available on Saturdays from 9 a.m.-2 p.m., allowing thirsty patrons to doctor up their drink with a dizzying array of options including pickled okra, jalapeno cheese, olives and shrimp. Circle your favorites on the order form, or order "the works," which gives you every garnish plus a beer chaser.
On sunny mornings, those looking for an al fresco experience while they imbibe can take advantage of JP Kelly's shaded parkette, a perfect spot for people (and puppy) watching during the Old Capitol Farmers Market season. It's also a perfect spot to partake before or after the many downtown festivals and events, and of course, a go-to for St. Patrick's Day celebrations.
