Wine Bars in Dubuque

“Chill place without the college crowd. If you can grab a couch, the beer tastes even better!“

“5 stars – The PERFECT event space! I hosted my 30th birthday party at Gary Dolphin’s Iron Bar, and I truly can’t say enough good things. The space itself is incredible—versatile for any weather (which is huge in Iowa), cozy yet open, and full of charm with string lights and exposed brick. The staff went above and beyond—from the band to the caricature artist to the bartenders, every single detail was thoughtfully handled and perfectly executed. I felt so taken care of, and so did all of my guests. It was more amazing than I ever imagined, and I’ll be recommending this venue to everyone. Whether you’re hosting a celebration, a casual get-together, or a private event, this is the spot in Dubuque. Thank you again to the team at Gary Dolphin’s for making it unforgettable!“

“Wasn't crowded for 7pm on a Saturday night. Service was friendly but took 15-20 minutes to get a glass of wine after we ordered. Sea bass was very good. Shrimp and crab carbonara was average at best. We have been here before and loved it! No so much this time.“
