Baseball, booze and burgers. It's a proven winning combination across our great nation. Local Springfield sports fans near campus can wander across Kimbrough to Boomers Campus Sports Bar & Restaurant. Formerly occupied by Coesters, the newly repurposed space has a couple of nifty updates. The new name, "Boomers," may be the name of Missouri State's bear mascot, but more importantly, the new menu includes a larger selection of tasty choices. Pizzas, strombolis, burgers, sandwiches and salads have spruced up the former restaurant's less than sparkling dining options. Click through our photo gallery to learn more about their updated digs and the new menu choices we tried.
