“We’ve been to Iron Tap a few times and it never disappoints! Today we went to celebrate my son’s heavenly 3rd birthday. Initially we were okay and my daughter seemed fine but within a few minutes she decided she didn’t want to be there… the owner (or really awesome and amazing bartender) came to our rescue and offered us dinosaurs and another area to sit so my 1.5 year old could move and not bug anyone. She didn’t know us or our situation, just saw an overstimulated mother. I wish there was more I could do, because you made our celebration so special. Thank you!“

“Its affordable very nice resturant. And the food is good. And the service is good. Its off back behind other bussiness. You really have to look to find it. But if you use your phone to navigate to find this resturant. Yes it cost money. But you pay for what you order. But like I said the food is good. And it's a quite place. Alot of families do go there to eat. And you get your money's worth. Its a nice country resturant. And the bathrooms are clean. I dont have any complaints.thank you. Katrin“

“What a pleasant early morning experience at Knuckleheads. After perusing options for the Vikings London game this morning, we were wonderfully surprised with the outcome. What a warm and welcoming experience by all staff members. Specifically the Cook and “his wife”
We started out the game with a delicious Bloody Mary with all the fixings. Followed up by an amazing gourmet breakfast complete with paired strawberries as a delectable treat and presented quite nicely on our plate. My eggs over easy were cooked to perfection and the one sided Garlic toast was an exquisite pairing alongside the perfectly sautéed Hashbrowns. I could not recommend Knuckleheads enough. Service caring and compassionate 10/10. Food made with love 10/10. If you stop in, ask for Jeff. He’ll leave your appetite satisfied.“

Our waitperson was really friendly, and the drinks came fast even though it was getting pretty busy and the shift changed.“

“I am a customer and I had the best dining annd entertainment experience with the incredible staff here at Floyd’s bar! The band was Coconut Tiger, such a class act! The band was high energy, the bartender Frizby was our favorite! We had a large group of us but Frizby our girl did a AMAZING job of taking care of us, it was spontaneous, we came in for a quick bite, and it ended up being an entire night to remember! Thank you Floyd’s Bar staff! The security guys were kind but badass too, the funnest night I’ve had for a long time!“
