They also had board games and 2 arcade style game machines in the back! Their draft beer options are super expansive! I was here on a Tuesday and it was packed!! Only issue was because of this being a popular spot, the service was very slow so keep that in mind if you are in a rush to be somewhere after. Otherwise, I loved the vibe in here and there were a ton of 4 person high top tables you could seat yourself at that offered great views of the tvs. There were also a few larger tables for big groups, as well as ample bar seating.

I visited Old Timer Tavern with my boyfriend during a trip to Iowa a couple of weeks ago. We…read morestumbled upon this place on Yelp while looking for somewhere to go un Marshalltown while most other places were closed. It took a while to find it, as it's located under a street that's also a bridge, so we had to circle around a few times. We got there, ordered a beer and a cocktail, and were told it was cash only. Oh, no! I didn't have any cash, and my boyfriend only had $10 on him. We also found out their ATM was broken. We both heard that our drinks came out to $25, so my boyfriend hands the bartender his $10 as a "deposit" while we go try to find cash. She then proceeds to give him change! We were stunned. Our total was actually $8.25. Wow. We got to have our drinks. We were pleased and amused. We thought $25 was a bit pricey, but didn't question it too much, since that's likely what we would pay at a similar tavern in California, where we live. The drinks were okay. Prices are good. The ambiance was what you would expect for a tavern. I would definitely return.
