4 Best Bars near Winterset

“We visited The Honey Lounge on a whim, and man are we glad we stopped. The place has a cool, cozy atmosphere. We got there and were the only customers for quite awhile, so we tried every flavor of mead, played cards and chatted with the owner. She was so kind, and even offered samples of upcoming flavors. We consider ourselves amateur wine and mead connoisseurs, and left with a new favorite place, and an excellent recommendation for our friends and family! We’ll be ordering mead to be shipped to our home in Minnesota in the future for sure! 🤍“

“A#1 our favorite place for the cleanest yummiest salads around. The mushroom and goat cheese flat bread is sweet and perfectly toasted. Britt our server was awesome and took good care of us. Maybe next time I will drink some beer since it’s a tap house. But we had to much wine at a local winery so the COFFEE hits the spot. We will be back before we leave town. We love our salads!!! And we’ll be back for the apple pie! Ok we came back 3 times to our favorite Drift bar. The 2nd and 3rd time we were served by Miranda who was awesome as well. More food and drinks! Tried the spinach salad and the awesome reuben sando. Also the pineapple whip sour is my favorite! Thanks to you all we had great food and also that live band on the 15th of August, 2026!!!“

“I'm an Iowa native now living in Charleston, SC. While visiting back in Iowa I was lucky to eat lunch here. Best tenderloin sandwich I've ever had!“
