Very tasty, relatively simple American cuisine.
Melt your face off wing sauce is actually somewhat spicy -- a rarity in the American Midwest. I'm there for it.
Fries were surprisingly good with reasonable crunch for their size.
Chicken tenders don't feel produced in a factory somewhere. Very thin, good breading. Could use a bit more crunch, but are very good.
For nachos, BBQ sauce is sweet (in some people's opinion, too sweet), the jalapenos were (at least in this occasion) spicier then most. Felt like upscaled football stadium nachos in the best possible way.
Inexpensive, great service.
We'll be back by whenever we're in the area hiking.

We had a great day at Elephant Rock Park and decided to do as we always do and stop and eat at a place that we've never been before. When we first walked in, it took about 5 minutes for us to be seated, not recognized. Everyone actually looked shocked that we were there. The service continued to be slow. Then the food came out. The spinach dip was watery, cheesy and unseasoned. The onion rings were bland, how is that even possible and unseasoned onion ring. Even the pulled porked on my potato was bland and unseasoned. It was just inedible and I sent it back along with a request to have the item removed from our bill. I normally have a great or decent review for restaurants but my best experience here was leaving.

Was at the reenactment festivities all day, everyone having a great time, first time at the Iron Mule, plenty of parking was a major plus, then the atmosphere was amazing, but our waitresses was even better, we had 6 people in our group and she handled it with experience and laughter the whole time, we didn't have to wait long for our food, and it was amazing, for such a crowed day, this place has it together, great job staff and chef's, we most definitely will be back.

Nice place with good food. The pizza with the hot honey is so good, we got it as an appetizer for the table and it was everyone's favorite. The burger with jalapeños was really good as well. The wings weren't bad either, but the pizza was the real standout. Really good service as well, they were pretty busy but the workers were handling it well.
They have a lot of food options that I'd say are a step up from similarly priced chains, the wings may be closer to average but were still good.
My review is not tainted by camping meals. My last meal was a nice bbq place in St. Louis.

If you're out this way it's the best there is. The place is definitely dated and you may meet entire parties wearing camo but that food is good and the staff is polite. Def a go to spot for the area.
