Hidden gem! Staffs were really nice. I got the Monday special for lunch and it was really filling! I had to pack it to go for dinner! Big portion for its price!

I'm a big fan of getting into local neighborhoods to try new restaurants so when I saw that this place has breakfast I stopped by to check it out. The place is a small neighborhood bar and restaurant with locals who all know each other and did the look at the outsider who walked in for breakfast. The breakfast menu is small but it is a bar so I ordered the West Dubuque breakfast which is hash browns, two eggs, toast and choice of meat. The lady asked me if I wanted cheese or onions in my hash browns so I say yes with onions and sunny side up eggs, sausage patties and white toast. I ordered a Bloody Mary with my breakfast which was kind of pathetic and basic with no celery salt I noticed. When my plate hit the table I'm thinking what the F is this because the eggs were over med and not one onion in my hash browns, what the F did you even ask me then. Was this even my order and how do you mess up 2 of 4 items when you wrote it on the check. She stopped back and said that she messed up my eggs and I said no onions in the hash browns either and she says the bloody is no charge. The hash browns were pretty good cooked golden/crispy with that soft center that I like. The sausage patties were moist but a commercial mild kind. The eggs were over medium and not sunny side up like I ordered and the toast was the generic white. This would have naan a good breakfast if it was how I ordered it. To my surprise the check said no charge merry Christmas but it was a good breakfast but just not my breakfast and I'm not looking for a free meal so I tipped her $10 and said merry Christmas and I walked out, maybe she was just having a bad morning.

Great breakfast spot recommended by a friend! Fun neighborhood place with friendly, quick service. Had The World Cup on TV :-) They're known for their Magic Muffin and that did not disappoint. Also highly recommend the hash browns with cheese and onions.

So good ask always! Magic muffin with a side of gravy!

But the interior was very cool and the area was very pretty. They have a nice outdoor patio, inside bar and table seating. Plus they have several arcade games and sweet merchandise. Service was friendly and everything was clean. They had quite a few beers on tap so I opted for a flight. I sampled the cramden bike-fruited sour, Punchy the clown-sour, Bangers-Strawberry Rhubarb Piehole-gluten free sour, and I Gotta Have My Hops-imperial ipa. They were all really good but my favorite was the strawberry rhubarb. It wasn't overly sour but was more sweet and was just a nice, light, summery drink. For dinner I had the Cuban B-smoked pulled pork, ham, pickle chips, honey mustard, and Swiss cheese on a hoagie roll. It came with a side of fries. The Cuban was delicious. The flavor was Smokey and sweet with a little acidity. It was really well balanced and was very tasty. Highly recommend. The fries were crispy and crunchy and not overly salted. I'd definitely order them again. Highly recommend that you stop in if you're in the area. If we end up around here again, we'll definitely stop in again.

Upon arriving, we noticed…read morethat there was a table with approximately 20 guys but it a sports bar and they're used to having large groups, with all the conferences held around Dubuque, so we thought we should be ok. WRONG!! ( One waiter and one waitress) ‍) Waited 20 mins before even getting asked if what we wanted to drink. Mind you, we were ready to have a beverage and order by that time. I ordered the pick 3 and a beer. Chips, ceasar salad, and chicken and dumpling soup. My lunch companion ordered a chicken wrap and chips and a beer. Easy enough, right?!?! Wrong! Out beers finally got poured and then sat at the bar, for what seemed like an eternity. Finally brought those to us. And then we waited and waited and waited. Finally our waiter came back with just my chips. And we were back to the waiting game. By the time the rest of the food came, we NEEDED another beer, just to endure the wait. Oddly enough, they sat at the bar again. My salad was fine but the soup was cold! And that was the only hot thing that we had ordered. Short story long, it was a 90+ min lunch, for basically soup and salad. They need to figure out their food and staffing issues before I ever step back into this place!!

I called them on Thursday for a Saturday night reservation and they were able to accommodate us. I ordered the Salmon entree- it came with dill sauce and a baked potato and I selected vegetable beef soup (the soup of the day). Husband ordered the NY strip with mushrooms and the garlic mashed potatoes and a house salad. You have a piece of corn bread waiting at your place setting when you arrive. They also serve dinner rolls. It's a tremendous amount of food. My daughter ordered the same thing I did except she subbed her potato for broccoli ($3 upcharge) We had a glass of wine as well. Service was quick and efficient, they had two people serving our table. Everyone received their entrées at the same time and all courses were served at once. Was very efficient and friendly. The total was $150 for the three of us before tip.

It took my retiring to finally start dying dining here. It's about a 70 minute ride from Cedar rapids Iowa to this location but we do it over and over and over again. That should tell you something about how good they are. Their service is outstanding. The food is great never had a bad meal. My wife has Alzheimer's and she always enjoys the ride up in the view overlooking the river. I had to ask for tables along the outside to get the best view of the river. It was suggested I might want to make a reservation to be sure I would get one if available. We've eaten various items all over the menu you can't go wrong with anything it's all great. If you haven't tried it you should.

If you're with folks who wouldn't be comfortable in seating that height (as we were), not to worry! They have additional traditional table seating through a doorway to the right of the bar. They have a large menu so there's definitely a little something for everyone. I ordered the brie grilled cheese with fries. It was good. I expected more flavor from the brie (it tasted very mild) but the jalapeno jelly added a nice sweetness and a bit of flavor. The atmosphere is your standard pub. It's in a historical building and they provide a bit of the history on their menu which was neat to read. The service was accommodating and efficient. Get to it!

I can't express how much we all liked this place and can't wait to be back.
