    I visited Old Timer Tavern with my boyfriend during a trip to Iowa a couple of weeks ago. We…read morestumbled upon this place on Yelp while looking for somewhere to go un Marshalltown while most other places were closed. It took a while to find it, as it's located under a street that's also a bridge, so we had to circle around a few times. We got there, ordered a beer and a cocktail, and were told it was cash only. Oh, no! I didn't have any cash, and my boyfriend only had $10 on him. We also found out their ATM was broken. We both heard that our drinks came out to $25, so my boyfriend hands the bartender his $10 as a "deposit" while we go try to find cash. She then proceeds to give him change! We were stunned. Our total was actually $8.25. Wow. We got to have our drinks. We were pleased and amused. We thought $25 was a bit pricey, but didn't question it too much, since that's likely what we would pay at a similar tavern in California, where we live. The drinks were okay. Prices are good. The ambiance was what you would expect for a tavern. I would definitely return.

    Private parking. Huge outdoor patio with umbrellas. Friendly staff. Free round on the owner…read more Decent beer on tap. Decent spirit selection. Huge overpours which is cost effective for the patron but may not be I the best interest of the business for Many reasons. Fair warning, they keep the Jameson in the freezer! We will return as it is comfortable and friendly. Jukebox has decent songs. Large area that filled in while we were there.
