    We got Wing Stop boneless wings with bleu cheese dip on Thursday and they were good. We had Hawaiian and BBQ wings. Clean. Friendly staff. Family friendly. Lot parking. Bit pricey. Marcy'sDinerTantrumScale 5/5- NoScreamingKids.

    Huge Wingstop fan so when I saw there was a location opening up in central Iowa, I was all over it. I would say it was just short of being a stalker. Now that it is open, I can say it lives up to my excitement. I have been to quite a few of them from ones in California to Texas and others. This one looks just like all of them except it has a lot of Senaca Wallace's memorabilia. He is the franchisee for this location. While I was here he stopped in briefly to check on things, said hi to the customers and took off. The food is as I expected. The same quality Wingstop wings. The mango habanero and lemon pepper are some of the best around. The wings are crispy. The veggie side is fresh and tasty to balance out the less healthy but so yummy wings. While there was a wait, the staff was working hard to turn out hot and fast food. I can't wait to come back again and hopefully they open a location in Ankeny soon.

    Crazy busy Saturday

    The yelp reviews brought me in. The wings would bring me back. In Ames very rarely we were going to go try a new restaurant. Our first stop the weight was over 45 min and I was already hungry so I will admit by the time we arrived I was a bit grumpy. We walked into a line a the regsiter. The menu is availble on the counter or behind the college students running the counter. Most people were awaiting their orders which worried me a bit. We tried to make a quick decision and put in an order for a couple types of wings and the carrots and celery sticks. You get to pick your sauce and your dipping sauces at the counter when you order. What kinda rubbed me the wrong way was that they decided to share how long the food would take after she already took my money. Almost 20 -30min for chicken wings. My feelings were mixed cause I was getting Hangry but I knew they would be fresh. We were getting a combo which automatically comes with a drink. We were given glasses and you turn around and go to the all-in-one coca cola machine behind you. Of course, they are working on replacing something in it, so you cant even get ice for the tea while they did that. So I grab my silverware and napkins and find a seat in the back area. There are multiple TV and the place is busy. It is a good 25 min and they finally bellowed our name to get our wings. The wings: Hot, fresh, and crispy liked I had hoped. The price was a little high I thought for what we got, however they tasted really good and I was soon not so grumpy. I saw a lot of carry out orders, if they came closer to where I lived I would order out next time.

    Im excited to sit this close to the bathroom.....

    The wings aren't bad, but you could get better. The service is fairly slow, and the cashiers could use a lesson on customer service.

    Waited an hour for my order and it was all wrong when I opened the bag. Absolutely ridiculous. Will not be coming back.

    Wings have good flavor. However, service is a bit slow. Plan on waiting a while. Try to stay positive- it is Seneca Wallace's place,

    Service took forever. Iced tea dispenser didn't work. Mediocre food. Terrible layout. Would rather eat wings at McDonald's.

    As a noobie to Ames, Iowa, I wasn't sure what to expect of the nightlife here. Iowa State is a big…read morecollege campus, and on any given night, you can find youngsters like myself roaming the streets to find a good bar. Well folks, I think we found a keeper. My boyfriend insisted that Welch's makes the best White Russians (my absolute favorite drink of all time) , so we stopped into Welch's on a Saturday night around 11:30pm. For any other noobies like myself, you enter Welch Ave Station by going through the door and DOWN the stairs. The stairs that go up lead to a pizza place. When I entered, I saw that it wasn't too busy and on a Saturday night, that surprised me. I wasn't complaining though because that meant A) no nasty sweaty bodies everywhere and B) more breathing room for me! We immediately made our way to the bar. They have a variety of lit up signs that let you know what the drink specials are, and the different kinds of shots/drinks they make which was helpful! I saw names of drinks I'd never heard of before! We started with the infamous White Russians and went from there. The White Russians (we got the double) were delicious...creamy with just the right amount of vodka. I swear it tasted like a milkshake. We also got a round of Scooby Snack shots. I've never had them before, but I'm a big Scooby-Doo fan, and they were mega-tasty! If you're looking for a "shake-your-booty-to-booty-bumpin'-music" kind of energy, Welch's isn't the place for you. Welch's has a very laid back atmosphere. If you want to munch on some 50 cent popcorn, have conversations with your peers or play some pool, Welch's can do all of that for you. I enjoyed having a casual and relaxed night with some friends...nothing too crazy, but still a great time. Oh, and get the White Russians. Every. Time. P.S.- I heard they only used to accept cash, but they do accept both cash and card now!

    Looking forward to another trip to Welch Ave on Saturday afternoon before students come back…read more Always good drinks and food from Pizza Pit. Only 2 people in the place sitting at bar eating and having drinks. Sat in normal "dining" area of the bar. Bartender watched us walk in and didn't even say "hello". Found a table easily but no waitress ever came. Finally went up to the bar to see what's up. "I'm the only one here". Oooookay? So the 2 people at the bar were going to ransack the place while you came over to our area to say "hey, sorry but I'm solo today. Would you mind coming to the bar to order?" Not too hard, but too difficult kind of multi-tasking for this guy. Decided to leave and walked down the street to have a sandwich and a drink. Lame! One of my favorite places to go but good help must be hard to come by on a slow Saturday. Maybe he didn't need the $10 tip he would have gotten for our drinks and meal??? You'd think on a slow day anything extra you could make would be a bonus. I know it's a college bar but it needs a cleaning. With it empty... the odor in the place was weird. So probably should have left for that reason. They need to get that addressed -HVAC or clean/replace carpets? Both?

From other Yelp reviews, this place looked like a good place to try. Walking in, it first reminds you of a dive bar and staff were a little slow to seat us on a Thursday lunch but once we got our seats, service was speedier and we were eating soon enough. Service was attentive and our waitress made sure we had things taken care of. The best bang for your buck (or at least for my family of five) was ordering the family sampler platter. We got an assortment of meats including pulled pork, brisket, sausage, and chicken. We also tried the baked beans, mac and cheese, and waffle fries. Portions for the sampler are huge and filled us all up with a little extra left over. The BBQ was really good, just what we were wanting. You can't have good BBQ without good sauce (my opinion) and Jethro's had an assortment to find just the right one for the meat/entrée you were eating. Definitely a great stop, I'm glad we took a small detour to find this location.

    Tried the challenge sandwich (not trying the challenge). Delicious and more than any 4 people…read morereally should eat. Every part was amazing! I ate the pork and my Mac and cheese there, and that was enough to make me full. The leftovers that I took home after this, filled a catering pan! I ate three more days on that one sandwich.
