You want a steak they bring out a side of beef and cut a slice for you in plain sight. From behind the counter the butcher will say how thick would you like your steak cut. Let me tell you. You cook it right at home and it's so fresh and delicious. You will never get a steak that good in a restaurant. So many other fresh made things there I don't have time to list it all. Do your self a favor and try Cremers then you can tell your own story on this wonderful place.

This is a MUST STOP at location if you are a chilihead! Hundreds of different sauces included their own "Fire in the hole" (FITH) brand. I absolutely loved how they displayed the sauces, the information posted, and the free samples! The ghost pepper and reaper jars of their FITH salsas are very good, but need to be approached with caution! I torched my taste buds on a sample of the reaper version. It took a while to come back. Lol The FITH pepper sauces are good too. A nice mix to searve as a dip with a bottom layer of cream cheese... We have a Pepper Palace here in the Des Moines IA metro that I enjoy hitting up every now and then with a pretty good variety of sauces. Galena Canning was right up there with it...if not slightly better. Awesome selection and fair prices!

Join the locals at the bar and have a good ole fashion chili dog with a snap. Is it the best dog I've ever had? Probably not. Was it good? Ya-it's a chili dog. During the holiday season they have a Tom and Jerry drink. In my opinion, it's not a good drink...but it's a local favorite so you got to try it. Traveler tip: if you hear Dubuquers talking about "going east" they're heading across the bridge into Illinois for an extra hour on the town. Mulgrew's is likely part of that trip.

VFW Grant's Bivouac looks pretty much like it should have been back when it was a private club or whatever. A lot of old wood paneling and dingy atmosphere. The entire week has specials going on so you can always get cheap stuff. Coming in here it looks like going back to the 1950s in a Midwest bar. It's got lots of wood and we're talking about a lot. The walls are filled with community information and old war stuff. Kind of like a museum. There's a large drink menu featuring every special. A lot of these are for Bud Light. It's $2.50 wells on Wednesdays. Also you can get 6 packs to go. They also sell cigarettes if you're out of those. Got to check it out if you like old bars. It's open to the public. This is like a time warp or whatever.
