8 Best Sports Bars near Dubuque

“My wife and I stopped in for the first time. Her burger was amazing and I had the best wings in town. Thank you jumpers for the kind service, great atmosphere, and great food!“

“Good food and I have had mostly fast service there. I like that it is a peaceful sports atmosphere. Lots of nice tvs and good clientele. They have great wings that are very meaty, top notch french fries, Chicken sandwiches ate are good as is their taco salad.“

“The Dog House is exactly the kind of local bar you hope to stumble into laid-back, full of character, and serving up food that goes way beyond what you’d expect from a neighborhood joint. I stopped in on a whim and was seriously impressed.

First off, the Carmichael burger lives up to the hype. Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and stacked with cheese in the middle it’s one of the best bar burgers I’ve had in Iowa. I also tried their wings, and the flavor options are wild in the best way. The Raspberry Jalapeño was a surprising favorite sweet with just enough kick.

The vibe inside is relaxed and friendly. Plenty of TVs to catch a game, and the crowd was a nice mix of regulars and new faces. It’s easy to feel like a regular here, even if it’s your first time. The bartenders were quick and easy to chat with, which makes all the difference.

Whether you’re stopping in for drinks, a bite, or just looking for a solid place to unwind after work, The Dog House hits the mark. Definitely one of Dubuque’s hidden gems.“

“Bartenders are amazing and love karaoke nights and bands nights“

“My adult children and I met at Lina’s for food and drinks and it was fantastic. The food from Lina’s lounge and Thai Bistro was delicious, and we were able to sit outside with the kids and dogs. We highly recommend!!“

“★★★★★ Absolutely Fantastic – Don't Miss the Sunday Ribs!

It had been a little while since our last visit to Mason Dixon Saloon, and after this meal, I need to make sure my next trip back happens a lot sooner! Everything from the starters to the main course was simply outstanding.

If you are looking for the perfect way to kick off your meal, do yourself a favor and order the Dixon Dice, Cheese Curds, and the Portobello mushrooms. They make for an incredible appetizer lineup that sets the stage for the rest of the night.

But the real star of the show is the Sunday night ribs—they absolutely do not disappoint! A quick pro-tip: get there early! These are incredibly popular and have a tendency to sell out fast. What I love most is how the ribs are prepared. They don't come drowning in barbecue sauce; instead, they are seasoned to absolute perfection, letting the flavor of the meat really shine. If you are a sauce lover, you can request their BBQ sauce on the side. We heard it is homemade, and it is indeed really good!

Even if you aren't interested in ribs, they offer a full menu of other fantastic items to choose from. Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything you order off the menu here.

Highly recommend Mason Dixon Saloon for a top-tier dinner. We will definitely be back sooner rather than later!“
