A group of my friends and I went to The Back Forty last weekend when we were on a party bus and it…read morewas fun bar. We stopped the bus and all walked in and good vibes were definitely felt. We didn't order food but we all ordered drinks. My drink was well made and the bartender seemed to be enjoying her work. They also had live music, which was nice. If I'm in the area again, I would definitely go back and try their food.

This was a great spot for lunch! The dinner menu looks just as great. We were wandering around on a…read moresmall town adventure today and checked Yelp for a lunch suggestion. I'm so glad we did! The place has a small town vibe but could easily compete with anything in the Omaha metro. Talked for a bit with the gal that owns it. She was great! So glad to support a women owned business. I had a basic BLT and we shared corn nuggets. Pretty good. Husband had the lunch special, Tater tot casserole. My first thought was "I have the stuff for that in the fridge/freezer at home." Then I remembered that I have indeed not made it. They made it first so we went with that. He loved it! Not your grandma's casserole. The Thursday prime rib sandwich ($15) and Friday and Saturday steak specials ($25-30) will definitely draw us back. Thanks for a great afternoon.

Everyone is super friendly, the coffee is consistently great, and the breakfast croissants are unreal. Like... I crave them when I'm at home. I usually get the sausage croissant and add tomato. So good. Last time I switched it up and got the stacker with tomato, also great! But that flaky breakfast croissant is *chef's kiss* :) They have wifi available, which is another huge plus for me. I can't always find it on my Iowa journeys! Already looking forward to my next visit. See you in a few months!

I was startled when I picked it up to go and it was forty dollars for two skillets, an egg, two eggs, and bacon. I would not have ordered some items if I knew the correct prices. The skillet was very good. Everything was fresh, with potatoes eggs, ham, onions, and green peppers with cheese. The bacon was crispy and good smoke flavor. Service was good, but would like updated prices so I can order accordingly.

Amazing has to start at the breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. Not only is it the largest and…read morethickest that I have ever seen, but it tastes fantastic also. My wife had the grilled chicken BLT and she loved it as well. The tables in the front room main seating area are designed to be more family style to accommodate more patrons. I understand that there is additional seating in the back, but I did not see it. It was busy when we arrived around 11:25AM for lunch. Our server told us that the tenderloin would take a little bit of time and we were fine with that. Any sandwich that has a pizza box as it's "to go" package has to be huge. I have eaten a lot of pork tenderloins growing up in the Midwest, but have never had one as meaty, tenderloin and spiced perfectly as this one. The pie and brownies looked awesome and the burgers were huge also and loaded with meat. We will be back!

I fully expected the place to be packed as it appears to be pretty much the only show in town as far as a sit down restaurant. There was a please wait to be seated sign there as we walked in. We were greeted right away and seated in minutes. It's old school wood tables and chairs and I think there was a counter available. Ordering is done at the tables as well as settline your bill up with your server. Surprisingly the speed of service continued throughout the visit. After drinks we ordered the rodeo burger and fries, a tenderloin with chili cheese fries, and the garlic cheeseballs. The cheeseballs came with marinara and ranch. Fresh, hot, and fantastic! I've eaten a lot of tenderloins. Many that have been highlighted as Iowa Tenderloin Trail winners or participants... This is one of the better tenderloins I've had in the state! Obviously hand made, breaded, and fried. Not too thick and not too thin. Drained properly. Served with the essential condiments including the holy trinity (onions, dill pickles, and mustard). The gf liked her burger. It could have used more of the featured ranch and bbq sauce. The fries... Neither of us cared for them. Obviously hand made, but almost too thin and too greasy. We'd both opt for a different side next time. To each our own though. Almost every small town along this stretch of I-80 has a pub & grill. The menus vary a little, but are very similar in a lot of aspects. The quality of service and the cooks make the biggest differences. The Chuckwagon hit five stars in some aspects of both. Work on those fries and the flavor of the chili (horribly bland) and this review would have been five stars. I'm going to emphasize this again. Truly one of the best tenderloins I've had in the state! Keep doing what you are doing!
