    Alright, it's the VFW in Jasper. On Saturday nights, they have live music and dance, which is…read moreusually attended by the older crowds. This isn't the lively hang-out for younin's looking for a good time. It is, however, a great place for food. Why? Well for one they have good fried chicken, which is a MUST in Jasper, IN. And two...they now have Rosie's, aka the Calumet's, pizza! The Calumet was sold and went downhill fast and closed. Locals like me were devastated, especially since we lost Monte's around the same time. But dry those tears! The lady who made the pizza for years and years and years at the Calumet knows Rosie's recipe and is now making it at the VFW! $1 off on the weekends! It's a simple place, and yes they do have a 'back room' for non-smokers and under-agers. But Rosie's Pizza! *swoon* OK I realized I have written this like a local for locals. Rosie's pizza (AKA the Calumet's pizza) is classic midwestern/southern Indiana pizza. It's a relatively thin, sturdy, yeast crust that is crunchy rather than crispy. It has to be to handle all the toppings, including their homemade sauce and anything else you want to pile on it. Get sausage, because it's the classic Dubois-County slightly spiced crumbly sausage, and they pile it on high with lots of cheese. This is my favorite pizza anywhere, probably because I grew up with it. But even within Dubois County, this is my *favorite* pizza. I give the pizza 5 stars, but the VFW doesn't have the ambiance, decor, or service to get 5 stars overall.

    Ok, never knew you could get food at a VFW...always thought it was a place where vets traded war…read morestories...but this post is popular in Jasper for their pizza "Rosie's style" (Jasperites will understand the reference)...and a full bar to boot.

    I tried to go here, found it on Happy Cow and was super excited about the cereal bar but apparently…read moreit was not open when we went. Beautiful place just disappeared we couldn't eat. We checked the hours first so not sure what happened. Would love to try it again.

Don't let my 2 discourage you from stopping by, I mean that! Life is about managing expectations. For purposes of looking at this old church, the beautiful stained glass and the organ, absolutely pop in to take in the beauty of this old building. Just know what this place is and know what it is not. I stopped by during "library hours" from 10AM-4PM with to check this place out, read my book and grab coffee. During this time, the coffee is self serve, in urns, probably sitting there for some time, not hot and pretty bad. Powdered creamer is available. I made a donation of $2, got my bad coffee and sat in the open, quiet space of the Meeting Grounds for about an hour reading my book. So despite being dissatisfied with the coffee, my mission was accomplished. When I was there, there were three older men who were having a Bible study discussion and there were two guys who must live in the area who stopped in to grab coffee and then promptly left. I felt comfortable being there, taking some photos, minding my business, doing my thing, despite the kind of odd surroundings. The room is big and this would be a perfect little spot for a group to meet or book club to gather. They have snacks and other simple coffee drinks, but those are available for sale during the non-library hours I believe. The Meeting Grounds itself is open to the public from 8AM-8PM, according to the sign at the door. The church itself seems part hippie revival/part lazily renovated/part historically cool. It is an interesting old space.
