Great service, bar games, and a true bar atmosphere! I actually love the fact that they don’t serve any type of food so they can focus solely on serving drinks. It also helps support the other small businesses in the downtown area since they encourage folks to bring in food from the area to enjoy with your drinks while also playing billiards, darts, or shuffleboard. That’s the reason I put food at 1 star since they don’t serve food. If you’re having a night out there then I recommend getting Tomaso’s pizza to bring in and enjoy with your drinks.

De, Trevor, & Ben are the best I have been coming here since I was 21 and they are amazing at their job and super friendly. They don't serve food, but this is definitely the best bar in Marion.

I come to visit the town of Marion every other weekend and when I do I just have to stop at brick alley! The establishment is huge! Great customers and the regulars are very friendly. The service I receive from the bartenders are incredible every time I come in and I never leave without a smile on my face

Recently celebrated a 40th bday there and the staff were phenomenal. Had some confusion upon arrival (totally understandable in the unique circumstances) but they did everything they could to make sure we were looked after all night. Great drinks, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommended

I will start with saying that I realize that there have been some lost liquor licenses lately in Marion. However, my experience was honestly...a bit back alley. I was there for a group celebration, and when I went to the bar for a beer I presented my driver's license. Granted I have an out of state license so I understand being asked to repeat my birth date or address but this was not the case. The bartender yelled that it was a fake, yelled is the word to use as it grabbed the attention of many other guests who were audibly shocked and approached me later. I stated that I can assure her that it isn't, I have the up to date travel star in the corner, and she replied that anyone could add the star that it isn't laminated (it is). She then threw in that I need to leave the bar since she believes I am a minor. Throughout the interaction, it was difficult to believe that there weren't different motivations for rejecting me, I moved out of Marion, IA after all due to many discriminate life experiences. I can't say with certainty that was the cause but it's worth a mention I suppose as her actions went above and beyond simply rejecting an ID or trying to confirm identity (many people around sought me out to suggest this and discussing the interaction with strangers was how I got to spend the rest of the evening). I unfortunately wouldn't recommend this place to others, especially if they do not have a scanner or a method to confirm documentation with less room for potential bias or mistakes.
