“Elegant design, wonderful wood-fired pizza, great service, who could ask for more?“

“The atmosphere and drinks are top notch. I can't say the same for service. Apparently it is acceptable to not ask if our group would like anything else AND for the tab to be tossed on our table while walking by? Yes, I am still that person that tips at least 20% because I understand we all have "off" days but that is no excuse. It would have been 100% if the service was there.“

“I got a chance to see Napoleon Douglas perform his “For Once In My Life” show here. Breathtakingly good! I hope to catch it every time he does it moving forward.“

“A tight knit clan rolls there, the regulars, but ever expanding I think. I didn’t feel too much an outsider, but the guy sitting next to me was there exactly for that reason, to wander and be the quiet stranger at a mid town pub. It’s quaint and an asset to the neighborhood. Thank you.“

“5 stars for atmosphere and live music. Can consistently find live music here and drinks a very reasonably priced. If you're looking for fancy go elsewhere. If youre looking for consistent service, cold drinks and music then head on in.“

“Went over the weekend as it was super hot out and the drink flight slushees hit the spot! A bit sugary but def recommend for the sweet tooth fans. The Strawberry Banana was really yummy!

“The Best of Ingersoll. If you consider yourself a foodie and haven’t been here yet - you are missing out! Everything on the menu is a must try. My wife and I love coming here for exceptional food, wine, and atmosphere. The Carrot Wellington and Filet Mignon are the perfect choice paired with an amazing old fashion and Sauvignon Blanc.

“The atmosphere of The Breakfast Club was elite! I loved the colorful decor and the music was great! It was a little hot in there but July in Iowa and a busy place I’m sure the air was struggling to keep up! I had the breakfast poutine and it was amazing! Bacon, gravy, and cheese curds are my favorite food groups so I was happy! My aunt had the breakfast tacos which were delicious as well! The portions were huge so we even had leftovers! Our waitress Jen was wonderful! Super attentive and friendly! This was our first time here and we will definitely be back!“

“Blue Agave, the Mexican restaurant, truly deserves a five-star rating. From the exquisite food to the captivating decor, including stunning mural art, every detail contributes to an amazing atmosphere. The lively music invites you to dance, while their flavorful margaritas are anything but watered down—unlike many other places. The food and service were exceptional, and I was particularly impressed by the presentation of the churro and ice cream that my friend requested, even though it wasn’t on the menu. It was remarkable. You really need to experience it for yourself. Everything about the place was beautiful, from the clean bathrooms to the incredible theme that permeates every corner, even down to the to-go cups. Blue Agave is not only awesome but also incredibly fun. I thoroughly enjoyed my entire experience and highly recommend that you visit. Five stars—I've yet to see a cooler restaurant in the area than Blue Agave! Nichole Aubert“

“A great place for happy hour. Friendly staff.“
