The Filling Station
Ten years after father and son Doug and Craig Andrieu moved to Springfield from St. Louis to open the first Bandana’s Bar-B-Q franchise store, they’ve created a new restaurant concept: The Filling Station. General Manager Craig Andrieu said Bandana’s closed July 31 and 16 days later, they opened The Filling Station in the same space, 900 E. Battlefield Road, Ste. 176. Transitioning from country-western decor to car and oil memorabilia, the new concept offers American fare such as catfish, burgers, grilled cheese, shrimp and a pork tenderloin specialty, said Andrieu, who ran Bandana’s the past five years. The Filling Station employs nearly 40 and seats 182, he said. Hours: 11 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m.–4 p.m. Sunday. Phone: (417) 887-3455. Web: TheFillingStationSpringfield.com
