“ Best burger in town, bar none. I love a Holy Coe in a hungry day, but the peanut butter cheeseburger is far too underrated. Also, they have the best potato salad in the county...and I don’t even like potato salad. But this...this is amazing! ”
“ Service was second to none. The place was busy but the food came at the perfect time. Servers seemed happy to be there. Small menu, but everything we ordered was fantastic. ”
“ Great service and atmosphere. Lots of food options, at reasonable prices. Wonderful cheesecake! We come back each time in Decorah, this time had salads, which were fresh and delicious. Service is still great! ”

“ The music is pretty loud but the vibe and the food are amazing. The popper burger is amazing I got it without berry sauce and fries. It is food I would definitely try again if I go into town ”
“ great wings, i recommend getting the bbq wings with ranch, they are perfect form the seasoning to the nice tangy bbq and that perfect creamy ranch. I also recommend the popper burger, my cousin got it and it was amazing the jalapenos and cream cheese mixed perfectly the atmosphere was perfect so much cool memorabilia like vikings and packers stuff, college banners and more. Everyone there was super nice and the service was top tier. Great place to go, i highly recommend this place if your in Decorah ”
“ Definitely WAY better than most sports bars. I got the chicken strips and they were pipping hot out of the kitchen. The chicken also seemed really high quality and were nicely breaded. I'm not a honey mustard connoisseur but the honey mustard also tasted really good The chicken strips even came with 2 pieces of bread and about 6-7 pickles so you could make a sandwich if you wished. the people were nice and the service was good too. It also has a JV menu for the kiddos and a diverse variety of food that abides by any taste ”
“ We just stumbled onto this place driving down 52. My wife was very happy with the wedge salad, butternut squash soup and a bloody mary. Now I had the best French dip I've ever ordered in a restaurant! Simplistic made with great ingredients. And for my side I choose cottage cheese! It was a huge helping. I love cottage cheese and seldom see it at restaurants anymore. ”
