Great place to bring the entire family and enjoy an amazing meal! I had the fish and chips -and wife had club salad, kids had the cub burger, fingers, and mac&cheese... guess what????? Everything was amazing and cooked to perfection. fyi, the cookie and ice cream was out of this world. One last thing, Colton brought me the coldest Stella’s I have had in my life. Hats off to this place!!!

What an awesome spot! I flew in from Georgetown Texas just long for fun places to have dinner with my family and it did not disappoint. Awesome food, great atmosphere and seriously how cool is it that if you're a pilot you can fly right in and park at the restaurant or if you're just there for dinner you get to see all the cool different planes takeoff and land while you enjoy dinner.

If you’re craving an unforgettable escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, look no further! This gem is the perfect getaway. The delicious food, especially the mouthwatering burgers, will have you coming back for more. The service is always top notch! Ask for Sophie and you'll feel like family. And the fly-ins? They add an exhilarating twist to your visit! Bring the kids along for an adventure—they’ll love watching the planes take off and landing or having a blast on the playground. Stearmans is an absolute must-visit for an exciting day out with family or friends!

Best place to be for aviation enthusiasts. The food and service was pretty good. Not the best food nearby, but you're there for the entertainment. Loved watching the planes come in and out, including a guest appearance by an Apache helicopter.

My wife and I decided to make the 30-minute drive from West Wichita and give this place a try. Very cool restaurant with a large covered outdoor area with better visibility of the small runway where we did see one small plane take off. We both ordered the Country Fried Steak, and it was very good. The steak was thick and tender, and the coating was crisp and had a great flavor. The mashed potatoes and corn were also very good. One of the things that can break or make whether I like the service at a restaurant is whether my drink ever goes empty. They have the solution for that. We each received our drink in a glass and a small pitcher of the drink we each had to refill our own! Genius! Service was great, and this is definitely a place we'd return to.

One of if not the best airport restaurants I’ve been too! The staff is always so friendly! Kreed, Rachael, and Brooklyn always go above and beyond! All the way from KCKB!

We love visiting Stearman’s when we’re in town. Great food, great service, reasonable prices and amazing drinks. Bartenders and wait staff are friendly and attentive. Tonight we were met by Kreed and Rachel with friendly smiles and cold beer, and Brooklyn took care of us at our table. Perfect night to hang out, listen to some music, and celebrate our engagement!
