A nice little local spot. Food was excellent. I had the Reuben. It was top notch. The waitress and all the staff were super friendly. Try it! read more

Price is about the same as everywhere else very reasonable. Food is deliberately outstanding. Have yet to try one bad thing here, I've eaten their Chicken Alfredo, Wings, Buffalo Sandwich, Nachos and looking forward to trying much more! 100% Recommend! read more

3.9 rating is a stretch. Food was just ok but all lacked flavor. Lots of draft beer selection but no list of what's available. Cobb salad came with no bacon. Dill sauce for fish didn't have any flavor. Nice place, nice bar. I wouldn't come here food. Riesling was good. Close to the movie theater. read more

Love the Italian Beef & Waffle Fries!!!! Their soups are always good and the staff is very friendly. Try the Jumbo Pork Tenderloin!!!

Went with wife for lunch and wanted something light as I was still comfortable from breakfast. Salad was a bad choice. It was great that they want to serve fresh grilled chicken on the salad however when you mix it in directly after it came off the grill it tends to wilt the lettuce and make it unpalatable.... YUmmm Hot lettuce...either that or it was left out overnight as that was the consistency. Flavor was ok but really underwhelming. In addition neither my wife or myself like the newer style beer battered fries and specifically asked if they were. The waitress insisted that they were not. Fake news they are decidedly beer battered. When I asked her she just sort or shrugged it off. Either I did not explain my dislike completely or she had no clue.. either is completely plausible. We have had better food there previously but will probably be awhile before we come back. read more

The restaurant is in a little strip mall so the parking was shared with other businesses along there. It didn't have many handicap parking spots and I didn't see a ramp so I had to go up a step to get in. The tables were close together so that wasn't easy to navigate if one had a wheelchair or a walker. The place appeared to be clean., but not real covid conscious. We ordered 2 sandwich meals 1 was chicken artichoke and the other was a jumbo pork tenderloin. The food was very good. It came out hot and fresh. The service could not have been better our server was very friendly and attentive. Our food came out just how we ordered it in a very timely manner. read more

Ate here for the first time with coworkers. This is probably the only YELP review with a consistent high rating so why not give it a try lol. It's a small pub with a few tables and they're always busy no matter what day you come. I ordered the prime rib (16oz, but looks larger and delicious), steak (10oz and flavorful), double cheeseburger (nothing special), and the waitress recommended, Blarney Castle (fried pork tenderloin buried in mashed potatoes and gravy is super tender and delicious). The drinks are normal bar drinks. We ordered the Irish Shake (minty ice creamy shake with vodka) and they had a 34oz beer of your choice at a super cheap price. The parking lot is huge. Our waitress, Jenn, was very friendly and fast. She appeared to be so busy, but still managed to attend to us really fast. read more

Food was good but it wasn't what I ordered. Staff were definitely focused on the people they knew. No napkins or silverware on the table. Our waitress said she'd be right back with some. At this point we had our food but she was at the counter fixing a drink for someone else. To top things off there was an up charge for using a debit card instead of cash. We had no idea. read more

Service was slow and the food we tried was not good. The fish tacos were very chewy tortillas filled with some kind of shredded fish. I had never seen fish tacos like that before and they did not taste good. Chicken George was swimming in grease. Prices are high for what you get. read more

Where do I even start with this one. So, I work in the area a lot, and my hotel is near here. I finally took the chance to stop in and check it out. It's definitely a pub, their menu has a large variety and a lot to choose from. Their drinks were awesome, their food was awesome. I got a chicken dish, and the chicken was cooked perfect. Quick service. Everything seemed great and I was extremely impressed with the experience I had here! I figured it would definitely be a regular spot for me in the future. However, things turned wrong when I asked for my check. Our waitress brought it over, I handed her my card, she said "don't you want to see the check?" And I told her "nope, I'm good". I did get a quick glance that it was like $48, but that was about it. When she brought my check back, the price was in the $50's. Unfortunately for her, it was a corporate card so I had to have an itemized receipt to expense. I immediately asked for one in which she replied "oh okay" snatched the receipts she gave me out of my hand, crumpled them, and walked away. When she came back, my amount was back to $48. My point being, check your receipts here. She would have made more of a tip off me if she hadn't had been so sketchy. Really disappointing ending to a great meal. read more

So glad we came here, the Irish nachos are RIDICULOUSLY!!! The staff is super friendly and funny they are another reason to stop in. Omg the tenderloin is so delicious I cannot stand it !!! I'm definitely coming back if I'm even close to the area.!!!! read more

Stout's Irish Pub & Grill - Horseshoe Tenderloin Prime Rib - Pubs Near Me - Clinton, Iowa

Nice little Irish pub that has plenty of customers but not enough space to host them all!! Seriously need to acquire the vacant space next door and have more dining seating!! read more

I stopped in Clinton for a couple days and through a thrown-in-the-air decision, my friends and I ended up here. They are locals and told us how great this place is and, as a foreigner to the lands of eastern Iowa, I was excited to try it out. It was great! The atmosphere was limited so seating wasn't hard to get. We were served pretty fast and it all tasted great! I had the Bourbon Charburger, which was good, but I heard the tenderloin burger is a must have. My friends also order the states largest moscow mule of 85 oz (!!!). Four of them handled it pretty easily. Overall, great place and pretty good food! Really enjoyed myself there. read more

This was our first visit and was worth the 11 mile drive away from all of our usual haunts. Our server, Courtney, was very attentive and efficient. The Crab Rang dip was phenomenal and will be ordered every time we stop going forward! Our Horseshoe Burgers and fries were really good. Huge portions, enough to take home for a nice lunch. The negative was the beer cheese sauce was extremely salty. That's to be expected when it's obviously from a can. The other negative? Seating us next to the noisy kitchen door when there were a number of open tables with the same number of chairs. Conversation wasn't easy amongst ourselves. That table should really be the last one you seat. read more

I was in Clinton yesterday for a medical appointment and saw a billboard advertising this establishment a couple of miles out. I am not from Clinton so I don't really know my way around. I spoke with a couple of nurses at the hospital and asked them if there were any good places to eat. I heard varying opinions and then I asked about Stout's Irish Pub. They all gave it an enthusiastic endorsement so I vowed to try it out after my appointment was complete. Look, you're not going to necessarily be dazzled by the exterior or the interior. It's pretty average but it's also tidy. What you ARE going to trip over yourselves about...is the pork tenderloin. I like to think I'm some sort of pork tenderloin connoisseur. It's one of my 'go to' meals. Maybe there are restaurants that have as good of a pork tenderloin as Stout's. If they exist, I haven't found them yet. This was the crispiest, crunchiest, tender and absolutely massive pork tenderloin that I have sunk my teeth into. It's about 50 minutes away for me but I will be back and often. Prepare to not be hungry the next day either. Did I mention the tenderloins was massive? Don't miss the opportunity to dine here. You'll be kicking yourself if you pass it up. read more

Awesome Ruben! The waitress was fun! Very personable. Comfortable atmosphere. Would visit again!

While in town doing my thing I wanted to stop for lunch so I wound up here. This is another one of those strip mall chain pub feel type of a place which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The place is small and at 2pm every table was taken with the end of the bar being open, where all the servers hang out and do there thing which I didn't like at all but I sat there anyway. The place is nice enough with lots of rich woods and a nice old school looking ceiling. There was about 21 taps and I had some stout that was the perfect cold temp. I looked over the menu and there was the usual pub/bar offerings but I still didn't like my seat so I asked if I could get take out. Well there was one thing on the menu that is a local or a Iowa thing because it's not on most menus that I have seen which was the jumbo breaded pork tenderloin with frys. First off this thing was fuc#%ng stupid big and I mean the size of your head big. First off it is impressive looking but it's not breaded because it's battered which looked like a beer battered thing of beauty that dwarfed the toasted bun. It came with lettuce, tomato, pickles and red onion on a bed of thin frys. No sauces of any kind to mush up the batter by the way. You have to eat the edges to even get close to the bread and it was nice and crispy/crunchy, seasoned well and tasty to my surprise. The pork tenderloin was tender and juicy/moist on the inside of the golden batter. The thin cut frys didn't look like they would be good but surprise again because they were crispy and soft in the center and seasons well also, potatoes need seasoning to bring out there flavor and they nailed it. I really can't complain about the mall pub and the food was pretty good overall and way better than my last pub lunch. Anyone who likes pork should at least once try the jumbo breaded pork tenderloin sandwich. Overall I had good cold beer and food here so I would definitely recommend stopping by. read more

Coming here I was super excited for a Irish pub. There is nothing Irish besides shepherds pie and Guinness. The menu was less than lacking. We had a horseshoe with beer cheese sauce it was just nacho cheese from a can. We were expecting a good full beer flavor with cheese. I ordered a hamburger which is just premade patties the fries were Krinkle cut with hardly and flavor. Crab Rangoon dip was good but came with chips and not wonton crisp as promised. If I could give constructive criticism I'd say revisit the menu and start making from scratch items. With the rumor of opening another restaurant I'd hate for it to not be successful. The bartenders and waitstaff were beyond amazing and bubbly. read more

Waitress was kind and quick on the food order and refills. Food - very good but you have to get a baked potato!! Best I've ever had!!!

Every time I have eaten here the food has been wonderful! Wait staff has been great, but the only thing is when it fills up, it is pretty noisy. This time we ordered the Firecracker Shrimp, Poutine, and Portabella mushroom strips. We will go again, and would definitely recommend. read more

This a great place for a younger crowd. Just remember that is basic bar food and if you have any special needs, it will be tricky. They have a very large space and often have group parties, but there are enough activities to keep you busy. The staff does what they can to help you out, and are friendly. read more

We heard all the good reviews about this place, so I, my wile & our daughter traveled from Rock Island to check it out last Sunday. First in-the-door impressions were good, beer was cold, and featured drinks were ok. After ordering, we watched how things were unfolding in the bar. Things didn't seem very organized, with staff running in to each other, getting orders mixed up, and customers waiting for menus. When we finally received our food, everything was cold, not just luke warm, but cold! Obviously it had been sitting at the bar waiting to be picked up for some time. We told our server, and she did bring us hot fries and tried to make it right. Maybe it was just a bad day for them, but we were not impressed and probably won't be back. read more

It's a nice pub and lots of people I know like to go there to watch sports. Service is usually good but I've had mixed experiences with the food. Sometimes it's amazing, sometimes it's prepared wrong. Would recommend for a hangout spot. read more

Went here for the first time last week, as I recently moved to Clinton. I had heard really good things so I decided to check it out. Well, not only is the service atrocious as far as rude servers, but the food is just blah, bland, and in small portions. How EXPENSIVE!!! For the quality, it's not worth it. I will not be returning....... The drinks were pretty okay but overpriced and slow service. I don't see how it is so popular. read more

The tradition in Iowa of very large pork tenderloin patties is continued here at this bar in Clinton Iowa. They also have a great selection of beers. read more

Food was great! You really get your money's worth! Great variety Jumbo Pork Tenderloin was more than enough for 2 people

We got there about an hour before closing. Apparently it was a slow night, so they started stacking the chairs up on the tables as we were eating. And the food was terrible. read more

This was our first visit and we were impressed. The service was top notch, and the food great! Their tenderloin sandwich is the best I have tried over many years. Our job in the area allowed us to visit a second time and all the same! read more

Omg the food here was amazing! I'm from Buffalo NY and wanted to try their wings...I gotta say they're just as good to me! Very casual, staff was friendly, but not fake friendly. Just a really great place to eat and relax! read more

The food at this place was tasty. They have a huge menu. Maybe too large of a menu to the point where they are unable to focus on perfecting their trade. The dining area was small but i revisit for the good beer selection and tenderloins read more

Stout's Irish Pub & Grill - Tenderloin to go - Pubs Near Me - Clinton, Iowa

I've lived in the area under a year and this is my favorite local business to support. The bar/restaurant is great. They have friendly waitstaff, lots of TVs to catch the games, and a great selection of beers. They offer delivery also which is great. Favorite things to order are the boom boom shrimp and Chicken George. They give big portions of good food at fair prices. As soon as this quarantine is over I'll be going in for a drink. For now I'll stick to delivery. read more

Great food and staff, the Moscow mules are the best!! I ordered the fish tacos and they were big enough for leftovers! Tasted great too! Service was great. I went around 4:45pm and the place was packed by the time I left around 6. There are tables near the bar for the "sitting at the bar" type feeling. The ladies room was clean and so the the place. Great atmosphere I'll definitely be back as I'm in town for 12 weeks! read more

Outstanding food and value. Great service, clean, fast and friendly. One our go to places when we go to Clinton.

We came for the first time last week and it was mediocre. Cute environment and atmosphere! Food wasn't to die for. We got cheese bacon fries (the cheese sauce resembled nacho cheese from a ballpark) with half a slice of bacon crumbled on top. Not super spectacular. The burger was ok. Mac n cheese was weird. I got a Buffalo chicken wrap, wasn't anything exciting. We probably won't be back unfortuantrly but drinks were good! read more

Very good food. Our go-to place in Clinton. The pork tenderloin sandwich is intimidating in size. Personally, I'm a fan of their Reuben sandwich.. Probably the best I've had anywhere! It can get pretty busy and a little grimy inside depending on the time of day, but their menu more than makes up for it. read more

went in to stouts with my mom and aunt. I ordered the chicken George with a basket of fries and mandarin oranges. and it was not very good. I don't hardly ever send food back but I wouldn't have even fed that to my dog. when the plate came out I immediately noticed the amount of grea pooling on the top of the chicken. when I cut in to the chicken it was difficult as it was extremely dry in the middle. the fries came out cold and soggy on the plate. needless to say I ate a bite of the chicken maybe two, a few fries and I ate the oranges and sent the rest back. 90% of the food was still on that plate aside from the oranges and we still got charged 17.99 for it Even tho it was barely touched and sent back to the kitchen. the food I received was absolutely disgusting. will not be returning read more

Went there for dinner & was happy to see the on tap beer selections. I was totally disappointed on the taste of the tap beer. It had a distinct vinegar taste. I googled that & it says the beer lines are dirty. Whoever takes care of the tap beer needs to be aware. It would be terrible if anyone got sick from that! read more

So glad I went to this place. For their beers I had their stout. And then I had their Tip to the Cow beer. Very good beers. Will definitely go back for them and also try others. Was definitely satisfied wit the beer selection. I had there signature grilled tenderloin. Oh so good! This tenderloin was great to the taste. And talk about a huge slab of tenderloin. It was nice and juicy. Came with fries. Which were marvelously done. Will definitely come back to try more of their excellent food. Great service and excellent wait staff. Very friendly and knew their stuff. read more

Very nice a greeting place in Clinton. Excellent menu with large servings. My family also frequently use there delivery

Bettendorf location is nice, but the food is lousy. Nice place, lousy food. Prime rib was the worst I've ever had, and the Mac n cheese was half cold. The cheese for the mac n cheese was the nacho cheese from a baseball field. read more
