I love the counter service concept and being able to pick my pastry out of the case before finding a seat. I ordered the breakfast burrito, a lemon poppyseed muffin, and a latte. For brunch catching up with a friend, it was the perfect blend of savory and sweet. And MAN was the breakfast burrito delish - I adore when breakfast items have a hearty serving of avocado, and the burrito struck the perfect balance of avo and egg goodness. The accompanying sauce was also delicious. My only complaint is I'm not a local so I can't visit more often. Definitely give this one a try!

My son had the grand idea to stop by for a brownie and when they walked in we were greeted by a friendly hostess who asked if we needed a table for 4. We were still thinking we would stick to just a sweet treat, until we looked at the menu and were told it was happy hour. We decided to all get dinner and were not disappointed! The meal was started with some delicious bread rolls, the beers were only $1.50 on happy hour and they even gave us scotcharoos to end our experience!! We are already planning our next trip so I hope to see you there! I promise it won't disappoint!

Open Fridays for dinner when they have prime rib and catfish specials. The menu is extensive; there is something for everyone. All the servers and cooks are super friendly and will make you feel at home.

Our food took a bit longer than expected, so if you're in a rush, this might not be the best choice.

But, more than once I've stopped in on my way to work to find a line of customers, a backlog of to go orders on the counter, and one poor person working there. A morning smoothie shouldn't require a 15 minute wait. I've decided I can only plan to stop when I remember to order ahead or I may not make it to work on time. I'm really hoping they're able get staffing figured out and I can come back to review because the food, and even quality of the staff they have, warrant 5 stars. It's just deceptively not an in and out kind of place.

They also have one of the best iced matcha lattes in Iowa City. The staff is amazing too. Everyone is so nice, cheerful, and genuinely helpful, which makes the whole place feel really welcoming. The music is always great, the space is decorated so nicely, and I love the pencil wall. The bathrooms are clean and well kept, and they really have everything you could possibly need. They even offer a student discount, which makes it an even better spot for college students. Definitely one of my favorite places to go in Iowa City!

(NOTE: This dining venue is located WITHIN the casino floor, so children are not allowed to patronize this restaurant.) Here are my thoughts below! Food: I order a "Book Burger" which is essentially the restaurant's take on a bacon cheese burger. The burger came with a side of fries. The meal was very average to subpar. The burger itself was dry and did not have much flavor. The patty was very thin and looked like it might have just been a frozen puck before it was prepared. I'd rate the meal a 4.8/10. Service: Despite the subpar food, the service here was very good. Attentive waitresses and prompt service! Ambiance: My motivation for coming to this sports bar was not for a specific game/viewing party. However, this place would be EXCELLENT for those who enjoy gambling and want to catch an Iowa/(Insert your team's) sporting event. The bar has a calendar of upcoming viewing parties they host throughout the coming weeks! Ample TVs and good vibes abound! All in all, if Draft Day stepped up their culinary abilities, this would easily break into a 5/5 sports bar.
