Crimson Sunset Blueberry Cider

Adorable place! Great atmosphere! Fun craft beers and ciders from all over Iowa. Scary to try new things but free samples gave us free range to find what we loved. Service was awesome and friendly. Wings were excellent. Highly recommend the blueberry cider!

Frank O'Dowd's Irish Pub & Grill - Scottish egg with curry aioli

What a wonderful restaurant! First night in Galena, IL we dined here. I kept it simple with a bowl…read moreof potato soup and a Scottish egg. The soup was a delicious . A thinner soup but the flavor was delectable! The Scottish egg was over the top with a beautiful curry aioli sauce. The sausage encasing the egg was neither greasy or salty but packed with flavor. I would definitely order it again! My husband loved his fish and chips! The music by a gentleman whose last name was Herr was fantastic! Loved the whole vibe!

Checked out this Irish pub located in a hotel in Galena. Frank O'Dowd's certainly is an appropriate…read moresetting for the guests here. It has a lot more room than expected with enough space for live music. As for the drinks and food they're good stuff also. The prices can be high but it's not crazy for the atmosphere and quality. Basically this is one of the first places one encounters when entering town from the east. It's located in the Irish Cottage Inn & Suites. The hotel itself is very nice and has lots of amenities of its own if wanting to stay there. As for the restaurant itself it's one of the highlights. It's about $8 for an Irish coffee, which is a classic in the morning, evening, or whenever. Amazingly they have non dairy options including Bailey's Dairy Free Toffee Cream. It's about $18 or more for an entree which is a lot. We were able to find a few plant based options. I got the Roasted Squash Bowl. This has broccolini, farro, heirloom tomato relish, pickled red cabbage, and white beech mushrooms. An earthy flavor. She had the Vegan Shepherd's Pie. An alternative made with faux beef and mushroom gravy There's also plenty of meaty options like beef medallions. For sure it's one of the nicer restaurants around here. It's closed Mondays. They amazingly have a few things for vegans and vegetarians.

Went in for dinner one evening. Found two open seats at the bar. Place was packed. Typical pub…read moreatmosphere. Service was sufficient. They were doing the best they could with the staff they had for the crowd they had. Ordered the beaded tenderloin. Holy smokes was it huge. Took half for leftovers. It was one of the better tenderloins I've had recently. Would definitely go back. Based on watching orders coming out of the kitchen, the tenderloin It's the thing everyone gets. Will definitely return.

My first review was taken down for some reason. So here we go again…read more. I actually went back to this establishment a few times because I wanted to give Stout's Irish Pub the benefit of the doubt. I thought maybe the first experience was just an off day for the waitresses. Unfortunately, after going back, I realized it wasn't a one-time thing. Each time, I've found the service to be rude, dismissive, and generally unwelcoming. There seems to be a select group of staff who are very close with certain customers and will spend their time talking with and befriending them, while other customers are seemingly ignored. I've also noticed staff spending a lot of time on their phones or sitting at the bar instead of checking on customers. The overall attitude from some of the staff gives off major "mean girl" energy. It's especially noticeable because there was a newer staff member during my most recent visit who was genuinely kind, attentive, and good at her job. I really enjoyed interacting with her, and she honestly stood out from the rest in the best way. The food is just okay and, in my opinion, lacks flavor. If you order it to go, expect it to be pretty soggy by the time you get home. I gave this place multiple chances because I really wanted to like it, but unfortunately the repeated poor service and mediocre food have completely turned me off. I won't be returning.

We went to celebrate New Year's Eve with our friends. 1st time at this place, we ordered (2) surf &…read moreturf, ribeye & catfish. This was a great choice. The ambiance, friendly people & the staff was great except when it came to our bill the waiter messed up both our bill. Items were swapped vice versa on our bill & the waiter went up & rang one of the bill up & threw ticket away for some reason. Also I had calamari, it was an appetizer but it didn't arrive till after the main course. I thought the waiter mention it was on the house since it arrived later. But when we received the bill, the calamari which should have been on my bill was on my friend's & not mine. So afterwards, we reviewed everything and our bill was still $20 or more over charged, so for some reason the waiter stated couldn't retrieve the itemized receipt & he would need to call manager from home to get this resolved. So instead of waiting, we decided to let it go & pay the bill. Overall food was awesome, friendly atmosphere, very nice place, staff nice as well, only thing if you're splitting the bill just make sure to check your bill to make sure it's correct before you pay! 1st time review for this restaurant as part of a Yelp elite squad!

Would love for this place to be successful! Salad was warmer than the wings and had to chase down…read morethe waitress for everything. Also, their tenderloins are awesome, when they aren't pork chops. Either they don't know how to order food or reject the wrong product. Either way, ask to see the slice of meat as they don't know what they have. I give them a try about 2 times a year in hopes it changes. Disappointment surrounds those attempts!
