I chose the California burger and asked for sautéed onions and they said 'no problem'. The burger was nice and juicy. Bread and veggies fresh. I went with the standard kettle chips as a side. My meal was good. Enjoyed the experience. I asked about the origin of the restaurant name and they said it came from the fact that they had shelled peanuts that patrons cracked and tossed. True or not?

Can't wait to come back and enjoy the patio with my entire family this summer. Ambiance 5/5. Outdated decor just like all VFWs, but this one has AMAZING views of the Mississippi River, so the ugly furniture doesn't even matter anymore. Free and plentiful parking never hurts either. Food 4/5. Broasted chicken was perfect with bubbly crispy skin and tender meat! Sides were okay, but not as good. Next time, I'll get chicken only. The mashed potatoes and gravy came as a generous portion. It also came with some baked beans and coleslaw. Service 5/5. Great service too. I just wanted to get some chicken to take home, but my server said it was a 20 minute wait for Broasted Chicken and offered me a complimentary soda to enjoy while I waited. I got to enjoy a beautiful sunset overlooking the river while I waited.

Great views! For watching boats! For people watching! For beautiful sunsets!…read more Rueben sandwich was great! Full of meat!!! Onion rings a little too fried for me. Wings are really good!! Crisp on the outside but super juicy inside!!! We had the Lemon Pepper Dry Spice! And I'd order it again!! I've been here with my boyfriend and also on another occasion with my family for a day out by the river. We sat and ate some food, enjoyed the views. My baby nephew pointed out all of the boats that went by. Then we took a stroll along the river walk. Fun sculptures to look at.

We were invited to try The Quarry Taphouse, what a fun evening at a really nice venue. I like the…read moreidea of tossing rocks at a wall full of fun things to hit vs. tossing an Ax, seems like such a better idea. We got a bucket of rocks to toss at the wall filled with lots of metal objects, a chime, some Tonka trucks. They also had a fun crane that you can pickup blocks and try to stack them up or build something. The venue is an old Hastings building that has a ton of character. The Tap Wall has a good variety of beers and ciders. They change them up weekly. The costs per/ounce seems reasonable. They have the types of beverage broken down by type (IPA/Dark...) which is helpful. The cost/ounce varies depending on what you are getting. We tried several different menu items and all were good - the three different kinds of cheese curds along with the wide variety of wings (both bone in and boneless). They also have a lot of great sauces to add to your wings or curds. I also tried the Caprese flat bread, yum. We also tried a couple of the specialty cocktails, I really like the Honey Jalapeno Marg! The wait staff was very friendly and helpful with any questions we had.

We stopped and grabbed some drinks, I got a beer and then saw the drinks of the month and had to try the watermelon mule. It was fantastic! Really enjoyed it! The hubby just sipped on a beer. We got 2 small buckets of rocks for $2 and went to the area to throw some rocks. The $1 a bucket was totally a great deal and simple enough without dropping major money on something so novel, but also really great. The service was a bit to be desired as despite multiple bartenders (and not many people) it took a while to get drinks or service, but the quality was great of the drinks.

Ambiance and Experience: I'm glad they turn this beautiful historic building into a cool place to…read morehang out in near downtown Hastings. Restaurant and bar area are pretty large and can see quite a bit of people and when it is warmer out there is a huge patio that overlooks the Mississippi River. Great date night spot. Rustic, modern, and charming throughout the space. Very thoughtfully repurposed. Drinks: We tried the Hastings 14 and the Gold Dandy. My wife especially like the Hastings 14 and it was mixed with edible glitter which heightened the drinks look and experience. Very interesting drink. My Gold Dandy was a refreshing whiskey-forward sipper. Food: I had a burger and my wife had the shrimp. My burger was pretty good and was cooked to perfection, soft, juicy and pink in the middle. I enjoyed the rosemary fries, good savory flavor that balance the sweetness from the burger. My wife's shrimp were perfectly cooked and her brussel sprouts were tasty. Overall: A great date night location or a place for any occasion when you're looking for a drink and a bite to eat. If it is during the warmer months you will have a great experience on there vast riverfront patio. A great dining and drinking option to downtown Hasting's waterfront.

We asked to be seated near the window so we could see the river. I tried the Riverfront Sangria which I was very happy with. It was the perfect choice for our lunch. My friend chose the BYO mimosa. Build your own which provides you with a choice of two juices so you can mix and match or enjoy them separately with your prosecco. My friend had the Spiral Breakfast sandwich with bacon instead of ham, she was very pleased and it looked very filling! Came with some cheesy hashbrowns as well. I chose the harvest salad which was full of fall flavors like butternut squash, cranberry and pumpkin seeds. The dressing was a little heavy but otherwise I was extremely happy with my choice! It was a perfect portion size. This was a great end to our hike!

I got a cappuccino that was good but not great. They use peace coffee.... I'm a fan but with all of these little places having their own special grinds and single origin it's hard to be above average when they use mass produced coffee. Overall the place is great to bring kids or to meet a few friends. The ambience is a big selling point. Not a bad place in downtown Hastings !
