Bars in Cushing, IA

“Small town, big heart, and hands-down one of the best hidden gems in the area. Old 20 isn’t just a bar; it’s the heartbeat of Cushing. Jodi and her crew make you feel like family the second you walk in—good people, cold drinks, real conversation, and that “everyone knows your name” kind of energy.

The food side stays consistent, the drinks hit the spot, and the crowd is always a perfect mix of locals and newcomers. They’ve got karaoke nights, community fundraisers, creative theme nights—you can tell there’s passion and personality poured into this place.

Whether you’re stopping by for a quick beer, a night of laughs, or one of their wild event nights, Old 20 Bar makes sure you leave smiling (and probably with a new friend).

Highly recommend — it’s where small-town Iowa still knows how to have a good time.“
