After a brother from Iowa shared his love for the food at this little sports bar in Charles City, IA., we took a ride out there last Saturday. The place was immediately next to the Cedar River, and thanks to quite a bit of recent rain, the river was roaring The waitress came to the table quickly, and we ordered a couple of sodas and pork tenderloin sandwiches. She was friendly, and even though it was obvious that she was busy, she was attentive and professional. The food arrived faster than we'd have thought, since it was busy, but it was wonderful. The fries were piping hot and crispy on the outside, and the pork sandwich was AWESOME. Soft roll, crisp, cold lettuce and tomato, and an amazing piece of perfectly cooked pork! The breading was light and perfectly crisp, and it was nearly too hot to eat when it arrived...the kitchen did a wonderful job. We'll absolutely go back - this little pub is a hidden gem!

They also had board games and 2 arcade style game machines in the back! Their draft beer options are super expansive! I was here on a Tuesday and it was packed!! Only issue was because of this being a popular spot, the service was very slow so keep that in mind if you are in a rush to be somewhere after. Otherwise, I loved the vibe in here and there were a ton of 4 person high top tables you could seat yourself at that offered great views of the tvs. There were also a few larger tables for big groups, as well as ample bar seating.

We came for happy hour and ordered an appetizer of wings. The wings were fantastic, and the cocktails were enjoyable, but it did take a while for someone to take our order, which was a little frustrating as I was trying to catch the happy hour specials. Eventually, the bartender came over, apologized for the wait, and was super friendly with a great personality. I've also ordered lunch from here several times, and my favorite dish is the Bruschetta Salad, which I get every time. It's a perfect option when dining with a group. Another thing I love about Pub 217 is the seasonal décor - they always do a great job switching it up throughout the year!

The facility is faux-English pub, with a woody vibe and lots of nooks and crannies. Servers are earnest, friendly, and very helpful, albeit not polished or slick. So far I have sampled the "pork wings" (breaded and fried slices of tenderloin - AMAZING!!!); the Reuben (solid, though weirdly served with Thousand Island on the side, not on the sandwich); the platter of red onion rings (crazy delicious, if a tad salty); and the spinach and artichoke dip (very cheesy - mmmm). Friends and family have ordered the Walleye (looked wonderful), the nachos (a little odd and not recommended), the chicken fajita salad (unexpectedly lovely), and the ribeye (a wonderful cut of meat, sadly very overcooked). There are lots of beer choices and more varieties of wine than I expected (they carry Malbec!), well-poured drinks, and the one dessert we tried (my birthday girl caramel sundae) was lush. A word on portions and value: portions are HUGE. You'll probably need a box. Prices are very fair and seem low to this city girl: great value for your money! If you are in the area and want a nice sit down meal in a cozy, friendly spot, this is the place.

We go sit near bar area. Saw 1 bartender and a server. 10+ minutes later a server greeted us took our order, dropped off our drinks, needed more time to look at menu. So server went to another table for nearly 20 minutes. My girlfriend and I had a lengthy conversation about walking out. But we didn't have cash on hand to leave for payment of our drinks. Finally order, food came out in 5 min. Minus 1 side. Sampler platter. Pulled pork, molten hot, huge amount, and good! Brisket, at best warm, and the fattest slab of meat I've ever seen. Most prime rib has less fat. 50-50 ratio of meat and fat. Oh I had to use my pocket knife to cut because my gf had the only knife we were provided. Then the ribs..... Warm ish, tried using my fork, then pocket knife. Considered asking for a Sawsall to cut them. We ate about 15% of our food. The take home is going to the dog!
