Bar Area.

Great burger and quick service. Love finding these small town, back road shops. Great atmosphere. Hidden gem that we found on yelp. Wouldn't have found it without it.

Pulled pork and street corn nachos

The food is all very tasty. I added some photos of some of my favorites including a few specialty items.

Shamrock burger!

You can always stop in for a drink or stay a bit and grab a bite to eat. How can you not love getting a freezing cold glass chalice full of beer while your waiting for your food? Great service with great food.

The bar surrounded by video poker machines.

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.

This is one of my favorite rock n roll clubs/bars in Iowa! Located right off the Mississippi where…read morethe boats are docked to shore, this is a great place to cast your anchor and hang out for a night and watch some music! When entering the bar you might think you are in a different land, and in a different time! It feels kinda like an Irish pub in a dungeon! But there's a pool table so you know your safe! There are two long bars one on the side room where the music is and one in the main room! I have been here numerous times of the past 10 years and the bar tenders always seem to be the same. And they are great! Prices are great too, you can get your fancy whisky or craft brews, but they also carry cans of PBR, and Old Mil for us on a budget! The music room is great, it has great sound, and Aaron H. who has booked here for years brings in great stuff, a totally curated room of music! The locals just come here cause there is live music and they usually leave satisfied in their choice cause Aaron has great taste! I have been lucky enough to play here a few times and every time I have had a great time! They have a great back patio as well, but like I said they are right off the Mississippi so it might get kinda buggy sometimes! This is a total gem if you find yourself in Dubuque!
