    What an amazing find !!! Two thumbs up
    Angela B.

    Bartender was so helpful!!! SO MANY CHOICES.. explained how they made the best Bloody Marys ever!!

    Flight of beer. - Four glasses of beer are arranged on a dark wooden bar counter in a pub, with a background of beer taps, a chalkboard, and bar equipment.

    GREAT selection of beer. Indoor and outdoor seating. Great service. No food here but they let you order elsewhere and bring food in. However, note that most places in this little town close by 9pm.

    a glass of beer - A beer glass with Gezellig Brewing Co. branding is placed on a bar counter, with a blurred background of bar supplies and bottles in Pella, Iowa.

    Fantastic service at the bar! Great place with a decent mix of locals and out-of-towners. Loooong beer list and cheap Jell-O shots kept us happy.

    This was a fun place. We drove from Des Moines for some Bloody Mary's, they were super fancy! Staff was fun and knowledgeable. The owner, I assume- was making bloody Mary's to go as it's New Year's Eve and I am sure people will be getting these on New Year's Day! Lots to look at, they have a $2 surprise beer available, which rotates... my brother in law got it and enjoyed it. Stop by to see them if you're in the area! The fanciest place to grab a drink on Main Street! Cheers

    This place is rad!! Service is awesome, music moves you, the staff is kickass!! Don't leave Pella without stopping at Cellar Peanut Pub having a Bloody Mary, make sure you take a couple home!!

    Best bar, hands down! Marty "Duffy" the owner is a stand up dude. I've been going to his pubs since his original location. Friendly staff, best beer selections. Bloody Mary's are best I've ever had. Mystery beer for $2, and such a cool concept! All the artwork is done by the owner and so cool

    A lot of great local beers on tap. Very cool! - A bar area featuring a long row of beer taps, a chalkboard wall with colorful artwork, and a television screen displaying a sports event.

    What a neat bar and atmosphere and the people behind the bar are so friendly and helpful. A lot to chose from. Great beers. When you are in Pella Iowa you must stop in. The staff recommends some great beers and they let you have a sample too.

    Decor includes Dutch clogs, of course!

    See all

    Upon entering we were not greeted immediately, there was no one around, then a waitress came up to…read moresomeone's table and then after finishing up with them came to greet us, we asked if we could sit by the window in a booth and she hesitated, and had to ask another waitress because she said they "usually rotate". So we sat down and waited for our waitress for a moment and she appeared to be very overworked and not enough help. One waitress was trying to bartend, greet, and help deliver food from the kitchen all at the same time. Everyone was friendly and our waitress kept checking on us a couple times, just doesn't have enough help. The food was great, no complaints, just could have been a bit warmer. The wait is always terrible at Applebees. We usually wait always at least 25 mins for our food, And it was not busy. The Ambiance was okay, Just pretty dark, good natural light though! The Window sills were dirty and the bathrooms needed some better cleaning, but nothing too bad. The Music was very intrusive and needs to be turned down, coming from a music lover!

    Terrible all the way around. Was not greeted right away. Finally, someone came and asked how many,…read morewhich there was only 2 of us. She proceeded to walk around and look at different tables. It wasn't that busy, but all the empty tables were still dirty with dishes on them. She went around looking for someone to clean tables. Which I don't know why she couldn't clean up a table really quick herself. She went back toward the restrooms, then started circling to find someone to clean tables. She could have clean several tables in that time. Finally a gal came to us and apologized for the wait because she was in the bathroom. We didn't need to know that. But she did clean a table for us to sit at. After sitting there for about 15 minutes, we left. That is the second time in about a year we have left because the service was so bad and slow. As far as the gal that seated us, she told at least 2 other groups that she had been in the bathroom. NOBODY WANTS TO KNOW THAT! When she was in there, maybe she could have washed the fresh-looking tomato sauce stain off her shirt.
