18 Best Bars in Cedar Falls

“so much fun! great staff!“

“Games are great, pizza is amazing!!!“

“Cool Speakeasy! Had a great time there.“

“Octopus is a bit of an institution: following in the footsteps of places like Steb's and Pour Richards. Dave is a huge supporter of local and regional musical artists of all shapes and sizes. There's always a cheap beer for those with just a few bucks in their pocket; and plenty of crafts for a few bucks more. They recently expanded their space adding some food items in the process. Popcorn is always available for those with munchies. Lots of regulars for sure. Guests should feel welcome. If you don't bump into a friend...you can quickly make one at the bar. Thank you Octopus for your continued commitment to The Hill and the local/regional music scene.“

“Great time, great atmosphere and Brent is an awsome bartender!“

“Enjoyed my first visit to Berk's. We were there in the late afternoon and it was mostly an older crowd like ourselves. I understand that late in the evening it gets more lively with the college students. It was very pleasant, the bartender was friendly, the environment was peaceful at that time of day. The other bar patrons were friendly. They have comfortable upholstered bar stools as well as table seating. There are bags of snacks that you can buy.“

“Excellent place! Terrific Owner/ Bartender“

“step off the main street and relax with a cocktail or craft beer very reasonably priced“

“After we were seated, it took a while to be served, and before we could order. The food was great, and the atmosphere was spot on. They have a nice vibe with old gas pumps and ski ball! I would definitely come here again. We got the horney burger, and by the time we got it, I forgot all that was on it... so mich was on it.“

“Normally our time goes well when we go to Brass Tap in Cedar Falls. Unfortunately we did not have a good experience on our most recent visit, Friday June 7th, 7:00pm. We went for dinner fully expecting it to be busy, which was fine. We sat at the bar for 10 minutes, while the lead bartender lady and trainee COMPLETELY IGNORED US. The bar was dirty, and needed wiped down. A nice waiter finally came, asked us what we wanted to drink, and gave us food menus. Unfortunately he did not return to take our orders. I did look at the menu for a while, but still come back to check on us. We are now 30 minutes into our experience, and the bartender, along with the girl she is failing to train behind the bar, still have not said a thing to us. My boyfriend asks the women if we can order, and the lead bartender walked away, didn't say a word, and left the trainee to fend for herself. It was very clear she needed help. We eventually got our food order in. The food came out fast for how many people were there. It was cooked well, and we took home what was left over. I had to ask for our silverware, napkins, refill, and check. Not once did the lead bartender talk to us. Not once did we get checked on. We asked for everything we needed. Just crazy how she could talk to everyone around us, but not us. Not a word. The trainee was super nice, but it was very clear no one was training her. We will be back, because my boyfriend loves that place. We will NOT be at the bar, and really hope the service is better next time.“

“Suds is a bit of a hole in the wall, but that's what I love about it! They have pool, darts, and an amazing outdoor patio. This is the bar to go to if you're wanting a chill night with a few buddies. You will find people of all ages at this bar UNLIKE its next door neighbor Sharky's. Also, you can write on the wall and literally leave your own "mark" on the bar! How fun!“

“Whenever we are in Cedar Falls, we always make sure to stop at the Landmark. The friendly atmosphere will warm your soul, or maybe that's just the good brews that the incredible staff serves. Inside, there is plenty of seating at the bar or at high top tables. Play some tunes, Buck Hunter, or darts! Outside, the patio has several tables to enjoy your favorite sport on TV or you play giant Jenga! Definitely a place I recommend everyone to check out!“

“always have a great dinner at Whiskey roads I love the bourbon selection I'm a big bourbon drinker the only little pet peeve I had was the White Russian was in too big a glass too much ice too much milk does not allow the drink to stay consistent everything else as usual was just perfect this is a place where I know I can take out of town guests and I'll always be satisfied“

“Love the Blue! Classic home town place to grab a couple drinks. A place that never changes!“

“If you LOVE pizza then Chads Pizza is a MUST!! They have an amazing variety! Even thou most of the items on the menu are pizzas they do have a little extra for those that do not like pizza or if your gluten intolerance! My favorite has to be the street taco or Philly!
