Appetizers arrived before our drinks, which took FOREVER. And the mind numbing over simplistic repetitive sounding modern country music overwhelmed the ok food and beautiful outdoor dining area.

Half dive bar half family friendly restaurant. The outside dining area is PERFECT for enjoying food and drinks on a nice warm evening. They do live music and outside is kid friendly.

The LongBranch Saloon: A Hidden Gem in Creston That Defies Expectations 🥃🔥
Tucked away in the small town of Creston, The Long Branch was described to me as a dive bar—but what I experienced was something much more memorable. While it might carry that dive bar label on the surface, it’s got a soulful, elevated vibe that completely caught me off guard—in the best way possible.
From Dive Bar to Destination 🎶🌌
I expected a dusty old joint that smelled like tobacco and stale beer. What I walked into instead was a hip, lively patio experience with a huge stage for live music, a spacious outdoor area perfect for dancing, and a massive fire pit that was easily six feet across—pure atmosphere. It’s the kind of place where you can let loose, celebrate, or just kick back and enjoy the night sky with a strong drink in hand.
Craft Cocktails That Compete with the Best 🍸🔥
I ordered my go-to: an Old Fashioned made with reserve whiskey, and I was stunned—it could go head-to-head with any high-end cocktail I’ve had in downtown hotspots. It was balanced, bold, and expertly crafted. You could tell this team knows their way around a bar—not just in pouring drinks, but in creating an experience.
A Burger Built for Legends 🍔🥓
Let’s talk about the food—because I had a phenomenal burger that was worthy of a standing ovation. Stacked with super thick-cut bacon, a perfectly runny over-easy egg, creamy avocado, and crispy fried onion chips, every bite was savory, juicy, and prepared to perfection. Paired with a side of seasoned fries, it hit that sweet spot between gourmet and comfort food. Any stallion would be lucky to have this hay.
Worth the Drive, Every Time 🚗💨
Sure, it takes a few miles to get out to Creston, but The LongBranch is absolutely worth the drive. This was my first time visiting, but there’s no doubt I’ll be back. Whether you’re celebrating with friends, catching some live music, or just want a killer burger and a cocktail under the stars, this place delivers something unexpected and unforgettable.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ — Five stars for surpassing expectations and serving up good times and grub with style. Can't wait for my next LongBranch experience… hopefully it’s not too long.

I love this place. It's out away from the town and a laid-back setting. Outside service could be a little quicker on drinks, but overall, awesome place.

Awesome saloon with great food & music. Loved our visit and enjoyed the food and drinks, great prices and nice outdoor setting with good music. Food is the type you'd expect at a saloon and nice quality. Will return for sure next time in area
Wow Warm greeting. Top notch comfort food. So many things that make this place special. I wish we had more time to spend at Longbranch Saloon.

Not happy with the bartenders. I had to go to the bar to get drinks because they did not take drink orders with the food orders. Lame. The 2 bartenders did not pay attention to who had been waiting the longest. It was clearly my turn after waiting for about 25 minutes(there was a whole line of people behind me) and the bartender took 3 people (who had walked up and waited for about 5 minutes) before the rest of us. I tried to waive at him to let him know I was next and he ignored me. I ended up leaving the bar area with no drinks and was pissed I wasted my time for nothing. On a positive note, I saved money. We drove a long way to try this place that was recommended to me by a friend and there was 9 in our group. The food was good but, unfortunately, the bartenders were rude. I'm not sure if I'll go back anytime soon! An apology would have been nice.

Super friendly staff and customers. My candied jalepno burger was incredible. And talk about atmosphere! This place has got it all. Come on down to The Long Branch in Creston, and if you mention this review, I'll buy you a beer!
