I had the breaded chicken sandwich with swiss and bacon ($4.50) and was definitely hand breaded. The battered onion rings ($2) were good too. I was good enough that I stopped by for the lunch special the next day. BBQ Ribs, mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, roll and dessert. I had a pepsi to wash it all down and the entire check was $7! The meal was served on real plates with real silverware. All was quite good. The gal here can cook!

Best bloody mary I have ever had!…read more I frequented this little bar a lot when I was in Webster City specifically for the bloody mary's. Jamie (the owner) is really friendly and welcoming and even let me sign my name in the bathroom! (This is a common thing at Carpy's...I promise I am not that weird). Aside from the great service, drinks are cheap and are made well. For the bloody mary that I won't shut up about, Jamie adds the perfect amount of heat and flavor and there is just enough vodka that you can taste is, but it is not overpowering. Add the beef stick and pickled asparagus garnish he puts in and you've got yourself a meal! Friday and Saturday nights get fairly busy (for small town Iowa). The dance floor is small but just big enough that you aren't getting to know the locals too well, if you know what I mean...I will definitely stop by again!

A couple folks…read morewere at the bar and a booth was finishing up dinner, but the place had that classic small-town bar atmosphere--very clean, well lit, and welcoming. The menu is simple in all the right ways: sandwiches, wings, salads, and a few other staples. I went with their award-winning tenderloin and onion rings. My wife had boneless wings and the deep-fried cauliflower. The food was excellent across the board. Portions were big, nothing was greasy, and everything was cooked exactly how it should be. The cauliflower was crisp and seasoned well, the wings were solid, and the tenderloin was spot-on--great flavor, not oily, and the onion rings were light and perfectly done. Our bartender/waitress, Jesse, was outstanding. She was friendly, checked on us several times, and made sure everything was right. All in all, a great stop. Good food, generous portions, and the kind of service you don't take for granted. We'll gladly make the 30-minute drive to come back.

Always bustling on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday Fun Day, Pickles has a great staff of friendly, small-town folks. They hustle! Food comes out timely, and is good quality. We had a combo plate with fried mushrooms, pickles, and corn nuggets. It's all frozen stuff, but good quality. My wife had the French Dip sandwich and loved it (although she never dips her sandwich... wtf). I had the Patty Melt. It was cooked well on marble rye and was delicious. This is the ultimate roadside joint for a beer and bite. Nothing but positive energy for Pickles Pub!

Be prepared to show a little grace, there were a lot of cars turning in there as we came up to it- from the food, I'm guessing they're always busy! My wife chose their mainline burger (no cheese) and house fries. Honestly, I think we could tell how good it was going to be when got out of the car and that awesome charbroil smell overwhelmed us. She loved it. I had the Chipotle Bacon cheeseburger on Texas toast, well done for me (they will prepare to your liking), which is charbroiled, then dunked in their home made bourbon sauce and served with Swiss cheese and jalapeños. The fries have some type of coating that makes them a little crispier and a little tastier. Even if you're cruising up I35, it's worth the detour into WC for a great meal. Plenty of tv's but even with a crowd, you can still have enjoyable conversation at your table. It's no wonder one whole wall is covered with "best of" awards. They deserve them. Bon Appetite!
