Fantastic beer selection. Excellent food. Reasonable prices. Single speed checks all the boxes!…read more I've stopped at Single Speed several times when passing through, and always enjoyed the experience. The flatbread is huge--at least two meals' worth--as are the salads. Beer's available in full pours, half pours, and flights, so it's easy to sample a few in one sitting. And don't miss the specials--especially inventive soups. There's plenty of seating options, too--a nice patio, bar stools, and a couple rooms full of tables and booths. Cheers!

This property is enormous, and I imagine it would be a really great place for a family reunion or…read moregathering! There is ample space inside and out, and it's all very open and clean, though the inside dining areas are separated into large rooms, which I think would help with noise control when it's busy. We visited around 7:45 on a Friday evening in August and found it remarkably not crowded, but they have another location in Cedar Falls that probably draws a larger crowd. We were at the Waterloo location, which probably caters to a lot of business people and business travelers during the week. We ordered a lot of food for two people, and it was all excellent, but I rate this cool place four stars because all the food came out of the kitchen at once and we were totally overwhelmed. If it had been paced, I think we could have pulled it off, and as travelers, we couldn't really take leftovers with us to have another day. Our server was extremely helpful and patient helping me understand their beverage selections. I enjoy a good cocktail or a glass of good wine, but my beer tastes are even more limited, but SingleSpeed offered up the perfect solution: the SingleSpeed-a-rita. This is made with their Ring Around the Gose, tequila, agave, and lime juice. That hit the spot on a hot Friday night in Iowa!

The food menu is absolutely charming! And totally LOVE the bar and selections! We've brought several guests here this past year. The bar staff and wait staff are charming.

I hope it never changes!

The ceiling is corrugated tin and the floors and walls are reclaimed barn wood, according to the article in the Courier. You will step on peanuts, which I find mildly schticky, but okay. We bellied up to the bar and enjoyed the company of the barkeep, a friendly girl with an easy smile and a quick laugh. The beers and liquor are all the standards, nothing terribly out of the ordinary for the area. The place was not well-attended, but I don't think many people know about this place yet; anyone we talked to after our visit had no clue it was even there. Hopefully this place will draw some business to the area.

This may well be the best place in America to celebrate Nikola Tesla's Serbian heritage. For those…read moreof you not in the know, there is only one way to celebrate Nikola Tesla's heritage, and that is by listening to a Serbian anthem in 7/4 time. On autorepeat. An anthem whose only recognizable word to those not fluent in Serbian, is "Tesla." Drinking on a Sunday afternoon can be a slow way to get your day started, but the owner is there to boost morale. "Nikola Tesla!" he shouts, pumping his fist into the air. "Serbia!" Occasionally the Serbian anthology CD would slip into track 2, a jovial polka, until the owner slaps his slouching bartender on the back. "Nikola Tesla!" Barkeep dutifully repeats track one, sits back upright and earnestly offers us another drink. There's also an espresso machine here. The espresso is really, really good. You're not supposed to find good espresso in a depressed, post-industrial Iowan backwater like Waterloo. "Nikola Tesla!" the owner shouts. "Serbia!" One hour and forty five minutes later, the ode to Nikola Tesla is still playing on autorepeat, but by then I had the courage (Miller Lite) and my friend the caffeine (several espressos) to finally get us out of this wonderful ethnic dive.
