Winchester Public House Reviews
When I was there one of our members of our party was kicked out due to not being 21 even though the signage only say No Minors which in the state of Iowa means any one under the age of 18. He wasn't drinking and was only there to hang out and talk with the rest of our group. The way he was kicked out was very unprofessional and rude. Our servers words were "get out". The rest of the night we were rarely checked on and asked if we needed anything else. Did not bring us a check...read full review
Bartender threw our tip back and said it wasn’t good enough. Enough said.
The atmosphere and drinks are top notch.
I can't say the same for service. Apparently it is acceptable to not ask if our group would like anything else AND for the tab to be tossed on our table while walking by?
Yes, I am still that person that tips at least 20% because I understand we all have "off" days but that is no excuse. It would have been 100% if the service was there.

The Winchester Public House offers a cozy and relaxed atmosphere, featuring an impressive bottle collection display behind the bar and a long bar frequented by regulars. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, providing exceptional service and delicious drinks. Guests can enjoy a great selection of spirits and beers, including some Belgians, and interesting cocktails, with bartenders who really know how to mix a great cocktail with a little flare. The bar has a casual vibe with wooden and copper details, making it a great spot for small groups, and the atmosphere can be a bit louder than most cocktail bars. The bartenders are known for their skill and recommendations, and they prepare mocktails and faux shots with just as much care as the craft cocktails. The Winchester Public House is an inviting place to unwind and enjoy unique drinks.
