We didn't eat, we just got coffee. It was VERY welcoming, we enjoyed our short visit very much here and the coffee was great as well. Highly recommend for a chat with friends and a drink!

After a day of Eagle Watching at Lock and Dam 14 this was the perfect spot to grab a few small plates and drinks. The staff was friendly and helped us secure a seat at a busy time. Thank you Gina! Make a stop at 129

During our visit to Le Claire, Iowa we stumbled upon 129 Coffee and Wine Bar while strolling along the street. We were looking for a spot where we could sit outside and enjoy views of the Mississippi River, and this quaint little bar fit the bill perfectly. The outdoor deck, which faces the river, offers stunning views—especially if you're lucky enough to catch a river cruise ship passing by. However, with only about four tables available outside, seating can be limited during busier times.
Our experience was quite pleasant. We were greeted promptly, however our waitress was busy and tried to be attentive throughout our visit. The outdoor space was lovely, although some nearby patrons were a bit loud, which slightly detracted from the relaxing atmosphere we had hoped for—not that it was the establishment's fault. We eventually moved inside and found the bar to be cozy and inviting, with various seating options, including bar seating, high-top tables, and a cozy corner table with cushioned seating for four. The atmosphere inside was cheerful and welcoming.
While we didn't order food, I tried their espresso martini, and my husband had a Pinot Noir. Both drinks were decent, though we found them to be on the pricey side. For a cocktail like an espresso martini, which was over $10, I expected a bit more flair in the presentation, such as a coffee bean or cocoa garnish, but this one lacked those touches.
Overall, we loved our experience and will definitely return the next time we're in Le Claire.
Parking: There is free on street parking available. A thing to note: during events or higher traffic time parking will be difficult to find especially in front of business.

Drinks were great! Hubs says best dirty martini he has ever had.
This is my husband and I’s go to place. I would give more stars if I could. It is so welcoming and feels like you are going to hang out at a good friend’s home. HIGHLY recommend.

Great place, Great Staff.

Avoid town if you do not want a ticket or fine mailed to you! I’m sure the business is great.

I really don’t like to leave negative feedback, but this is pretty important for the health and safety of patrons. We came in over the weekend and ordered one of the small plates, the goat cheese dip. Their kitchen set up seems to just be a toaster oven, mini fridge, and counter, which is fine. What is not fine however, is we watched as one of the bartenders pulled someone else’s order out of the toaster oven and proceed to grab the toast off the tray with her bare hands before serving it to the customer’s. She then cleared another table, returned to the counter without washing her hands, and grabbed our toast out of the oven with her bare hands. A quick Google search will state, “According to the FDA, bare hand contact can transfer dangerous pathogens from hands to food, spreading foodborne illness. In fact, bare hand contact with ready-to-eat foods is responsible for 30% of restaurant foodborne illness outbreaks.” Please, for the sake of your customer’s, invest in food safe gloves or tongs.
