About The Sanctuary Restaurant

The Sanctuary Restaurant is a charming spot housed in an old church with stained glass windows and high ceilings, located in a small Iowa town. The restaurant is known for its delicious roast beef melt, mixed berry cobbler, and peanut butter pie, which is described as amazing and worth a return visit. The simple grilled cheese and chips are also a hit, with friendly and quick service. The restaurant ensures wheelchair accessibility with a special ramp, making it a recommended spot for a good lunch experience. The menu features a variety of sandwiches, salads, and soups, with the highlight being the homemade desserts, including the signature raspberry cheesecake with chocolate ganache and the banana caramel, which tastes like the richest banana bread with whipped buttercream and caramel sauce layers. The restaurant also offers a selection of teas and coffees, with the blackberry sage iced tea being a must-try. The Sanctuary Restaurant is praised for its use of fresh, garden-to-table ingredients and homemade dishes, including the outstanding Reuben sandwich and the lemon coconut pie.
