Big Grove Brewery
The restaurant features 14 changing taps that include their own beers – brewed on-site in Solon – as well as guest brews. Food is created using as many local ingredients as possible. The tater tot casserole, made with housemade mushroom soup, is a favorite side item.
Kalona Brewing Company
The Amish community of Kalona is the last place you might expect to find one of Iowa's best craft breweries and restaurants. But the Kalona Brewery has earned a reputation for its fine food and beers brewed on site.
Rustic Brew
Opened in 2013 by a group of friends, Rustic Brew is as fun as it is unique. This small, family-owned restaurant is a one-of-a-kind experience that features fresh-roasted coffee, craft beer, wine, soups, sandwiches and salads. Locals highly recommend the Reuben on their homemade marble rye bread.
Safe House Saloon
Steps from the Mississippi River on Lansing’s Main Street, you’ll find gourmet thin crust pizzas, legendary wings and a craft beer menu that beats any big city bar at the Safe House Saloon.
The CO-OP Bar and Grill
When Pomeroy residents became tired of not having a local place to meet and eat, they took matters into their own hands and established The CO-OP, a cooperatively funded bar and grill with 65 local owners. Stop in for hot pizza, cold beer and a glimpse at Iowa’s small-town spirit.
The Diving Elk
This gastropub brings locally sourced foods and and a variety of regional craft beers to Sioux City's Historic Fourth Street. Try the 14-ounce bone-in Heritage Farm pork chop, served with patatas bravas (fried potatoes in a spicy red sauce).
