21 Best Bar & Grill near East Dubuque

“Joe, neighbors, Connie, cook. great experience!“

“This was our second time eating here. We enjoyed our first time so much that we had to come back!!! First time we had the smash burgers and I’m not too fond of hamburgers but they were delicious!!! This time we had a Philly cheese sandwich and it was phenomenal!!! The owner and employees are amazing people!!!“

“I was looking for a place to easily accommodate my group of 14 for lunch on a Saturday. With short notice they got us set up in the back room, Melissa delivered perfect service, all 14 meals came out at once, all the food was excellent and the price was very reasonable. I've driven past this place a thousand times and never gave it a thought. Now I will definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal and friendly staff. Thank you Rhody's. You were yet another part of a memorable weekend.“

“The Dog House is exactly the kind of local bar you hope to stumble into laid-back, full of character, and serving up food that goes way beyond what you’d expect from a neighborhood joint. I stopped in on a whim and was seriously impressed.

First off, the Carmichael burger lives up to the hype. Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and stacked with cheese in the middle it’s one of the best bar burgers I’ve had in Iowa. I also tried their wings, and the flavor options are wild in the best way. The Raspberry Jalapeño was a surprising favorite sweet with just enough kick.

The vibe inside is relaxed and friendly. Plenty of TVs to catch a game, and the crowd was a nice mix of regulars and new faces. It’s easy to feel like a regular here, even if it’s your first time. The bartenders were quick and easy to chat with, which makes all the difference.

Whether you’re stopping in for drinks, a bite, or just looking for a solid place to unwind after work, The Dog House hits the mark. Definitely one of Dubuque’s hidden gems.“

“Great food. Had a cheeseburger and fries there. Service was great and very friendly.“

“An exceptional dining experience awaits at Dockside Bar & Grille, where the focus on quality ingredients and masterful preparation shines through in every dish. The star of the show is undoubtedly their mouthwatering burgers, each one a juicy, perfectly cooked masterpiece that sets a new standard for pub fare. If you're looking for something truly unique, the handmade pork tenderloin sandwich is a must-try. It's a generous, tender, and crispy delight that feels both classic and innovative. And for those craving comfort, the homemade pizza delivers with a perfectly baked crust and fresh, flavorful toppings. Beyond the food, the bar is a true highlight. The bartenders are artisans, creating skillfully crafted drinks that are both visually stunning and perfectly balanced. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cocktail or a creative new concoction, they'll deliver an experience that complements your meal beautifully. Dockside Bar & Grille is more than just a place to eat; it's a destination for expertly prepared food and drink in a welcoming atmosphere.“

“Rolled into the Whiskey… found it on google! Incredible service, Kayla was perfect! Food was outstanding, clientele was great! Great pool table, great jukebox, met some great people! I would give this bar 10 stars if I could! Definitely be back!!! Top shelf!!“

“Great place for food drinks beers people.“

“My wife and I stopped in for the first time. Her burger was amazing and I had the best wings in town. Thank you jumpers for the kind service, great atmosphere, and great food!“

“My mom and I had a really awkward time at a nearby establishment where we were completely ignored by three separate bartenders (the place was not busy at all). Turned out to be a blessing in disguise because we left and stopped in here instead and had a great drink in a fun atmosphere served by a super friendly bartender. She was so kind and took some extra time to explain a little bit about some of their different types of whiskey. Will definitely come back!“

“Food and atmosphere were great, staff was courteous and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening celebrating a special birthday at the Village Bar Supper Club!“

“good service nice workers and a wonderful place to stop and have a drink!“

“So darn good! We were camping in town for an extended weekend, and we tried this establishment for our first meal. We ate here once a day after that, and we tried several things and everything was perfect especially the fries. Drinks and food are both well priced and well portioned.“

“The food is amazing & great service!“

“we were seriously disappointed. I recommend avoiding this place.“

“Attached to Kennedy Mall in Dubuque, Iowa. They are locally known for their custom designed burgers, along with shoe string french fries that kind of resemble McDonald's fries. I also like their large fish sandwich, nachos with cheese sauce, pork tenderloin sandwich & chicken wings. Drinks and soda are served in glass quart canning jars, which is unique and fun! Make sure to splurge and order their specialty drink called "The Cave In"! Service is always excellent! There is no pizza here, but that is okay. I recommend highly!“

“They have done an AMAZING rehab of this store - I was mind-boggled! It's gorgeous, bright and opulent inside. I got back to my hotel late at night and all the restaurants were closed. HY Vee has a huge selection of pre-made, delicious food choices. Grab a fork, I forgot!“

“This is such a fun place! When we walked in we were greeted by the sweetest person running the complex that day, filling us in on the history of the mini golf course because that's what we were there to do! Yes, it's very dated and some of the mechanics don't work on evey hole but fun....absolutely!!! ⛳️“

“Hostess amazing! 2 LARGE Pancakes, eggs, 3 turkey sausage patties $8... split the meal between us we ate there for the first time 2 weeks earlier and ordered the breakfast burrito. They did not disappoint! Next time will try the Asian Cuisine or the Brick Oven Pizza as both options also looked fantastic! Will be stopping any time we drive through town.“

“Bobbi was great! From food suggestions to service. Highly recommend!“

“We stopped at The Barrel House on our way thru Dubuque. Food was great, but our waiter Travis was outstanding! Very nice young man who did everything you'd want a great waiter to do! His mom raised him right!!!“
