“We enjoy stopping in every so often for drinks. The bartenders are friendly and attentive. They serve frozen pizza for those who want a quick snack, but we haven't tried it yet. In the warmer months, they have Thursday steak night, which is very affordable. My steak was very good, but my husband's was tough. So those are hit or miss. The sides are plentiful.
It's one large industrial type space. Do it can echo pretty good when things get loud. There are plenty of TVs around to watch your favorite teams.“

“I’ve been a regular here for years until I moved to another city but I still work in Grimes and I got my co workers food today from here. The bartender was super nice on the phone and in person. When we got the food back to my office everything was perfect. The food was amazing. My boss who usually trashes anything I order if it isn’t something in his usual food places, well he absolutely loved it and said next time we ever get burgers that’s where we are going from this point on! Thanks again Uptown!“

“My family and I recently stopped at Smash Park in Des Moines on a whim for some family fun and food. The atmosphere was laid back and our kids thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor pickle ball courts and the arcade. Food, dessert and drinks were all crowd pleasers! And to go completely over the top, we left our blanket outside and Jerry answered my phone call, went outside to retrieve it from the bench where I left it, and mailed it back to me free of charge. In a world where kindness and customer support are harder and harder to come by, Jerry and Smash Park get a 10/10 from this family!!!“

“love this bar, coldest beer in town .“
“The owner is an absolute saint, he is so nice and a great human being! However, the bartender Megan Hampton is honestly the worst human being I’ve ever met in my life. She was rude to me the second I walked into the bar, then she screamed at me, I went to another bar, and the bartender said Megan did the exact same thing to her and her boyfriend. She openly talks about using cocaine and other inappropriate talk around the bar. She is single-handedly ruining the reputation and good name of Poncho. If you don’t believe me, sit at the bar when Megan is working and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about.“

“Great bar!! Best HAWKEYE bar!!“
“A nice little bar. Great conversations. Friendly bartenders but they'll kick you out if you're trouble. Loud music on the Touchtunes / jukebox. 5 overhead flat-screen TVs. No food served but chips are available for purchase. Might even see an occasional Amishman come in and sell naked goods.. Pool table for those so inclined. Nice little place. Come on down to sit at the bar and read a book.“
“In Johnston for work and saw the sign and thot I would give it a try. Seems like local people and very nice. Bartender was great. Will definitely come back next time in town. Thanks for the hospitality!“

“Sully's is a great Irish Pub that has great food and drink specials every night. They have a dog friendly patio and always welcome riders from the bike trails that are nearby. The staff is always inviting and it is overall a very fun bar. Go check it out!“

“we love Maleena she is the best“
“They've really tried to change in the last 5 years or so. They offer daily special meals like steak night (mondays) and taco night (tuesdays). The steaks are legit some of the best I've ever had. Served with very well seasoned grilled onions and mushrooms.
Always great service. Small hometown feel. Love it!
They could improve the beer and liquor offerings. Very limited and no taps.“
“This is a fun little bar if you're headed to a concert at Val Air. It's full of regulars But we didn't feel judged as outsiders as we walked in. It's an old building with a dive bar feel But there are certain things that make it feel like someone really cares. For example the drinks like screwdrivers and greyhounds are made with fresh squeezed juice, the bartender rotates the glasses, and everyone has greeted as they walk in the door. The only downside is that it's a cash only bar and the ATM was down so we had to leave.“
“I had not been to Ducktail in ages. It's a great bar. Clean with nice decor and a full bar. We went there to listen to a local band called The Adaptors and the atmosphere was great. Everyone was having a great time, enjoying the awesome music and relaxing.“

“great people, great atmosphere, good music, all ages, so much fun.“
“such a fun atmosphere to enjoy great bands and dance the night away!!!!“
“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 tonight for steak night! Best steak I've ever had! TJ on the grill was the absolute BEST! He definitely knows what he's doing! Will definitely be back! Great food, great drinks and great atmosphere!“

“Looking for a night out without going downtown or west Glenn? This is the place. Karaoke on Tuesday, trivia on Wednesday. Lots of regulars including myself. We don’t bite and love a good time. Unlike other places, you won’t get weird looks for being new here. 4 Pool tables, 2 dart boards, 3 slot machines with Ridgemont tickets (each worth a dollar at the bar). It’s a good sized place so you can find your own area or chat with a new friend. I’m an honest guy, worst thing about this place is the urbandale and Windsor heights cops linger because they smell a good time. Just get a ride if you have too much fun.“
“Been coming here for years. For the money and just in general it is the best place to grab a drink in the city. Bartending staff, especially Anne, is second to none. The new owner did a great job preserving a lot of the core charm that the previous owner and his brother cultivated over many decades, while putting his own stamp on it. You may hear people complain about how things used to be not understanding that this place has always been a gem.“
“Love this place and good vibes!“
“I stumbled upon this bar on my trip across country recently. I stopped mainly because I run a fantasy football league, with GOAT as the main theme.Got there just in time to catch the end of a football game had some great food and really rich bar staff.“
“Loved the $5 line dancing lessons and free drink! The instructor was super friendly and very fun to learn from. I didn't think I would like it but I had a blast!
Great for anyone who loves to line dance, or people who want to learn for the first time!
Would definitely recommend it as a fun night out“

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND!! It appears they have their do no recommend set so that your post cannot publish. Called this morning to let the staff know we were going with a group of 12 and they said that would not be a problem. In an hour our group received water and a drink order placed but never got it. The same server continued to wait on other tables, make drinks for other tables and made no effort or hurry to make ours or come back to take our order. In addition, the bartender continued to walk around and socialize rather than makes drinks. We even wrote down our whole order and patiently waited for her to come back to make it easy for her. This is the second that we have attempted to come to your establishment with the same results.“
“Kristine was amazing! We dropped in on a quiet Thursday evening with a crew of about 30 people. Kristine made us feel right at home and served each of us in timely fashion flashing a lovely smile. Atmosphere was cozy and the service was excellent. A great place to gather!“
“Friendly regulars and excellent service, can’t go wrong there! The karaoke library is a bit more thin than the average karaoke bar in town, but they have a lot of classics and run it very well. Needed a new home after leaving Finn’s and it’s safe to say I feel great here!“

“Came in for a couple drinks great place with an awesome atmosphere. The bartender Tess was awesome! Greeted us walking in and never left us waiting for another round. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“Came here with a group on Friday night. Bartenders were awesome, you walk up the bar and they would notice you within 30 seconds. Pretty spacious bar, wish there was more room back by darts and the other games. Free popcorn to munch on but they either ran out or shut it down around 9. Bathrooms were clean, and we loved that they have their own parking. They offer TouchTunes to play your own music but it Is limited compared to other bars I have been to. Will be back!“

“We had the best time at Vista Pub this weekend! Showed up at 5:30 and had a hard time leaving at 11pm!! Food was delicious! We split pizzas, (big C & breakfast za), pretzel sticks, donuts, nachos, fries, and chicken tenders. Great atmosphere and the touch tunes were a fun touch! Drinks and food were fast and staff was really nice! Thanks for a great weekend Vista Pub!! We will be back!“
