It is a great place to enjoy food really good food. They have gluten-free options for fish and burgers, which is a huge awesome. I hope to see the menu grow. The owner is very involved. A safe place. They did have a good selection of games to play in the corner, but it needs to be restocked. The parking is awful, but trivia is so fun. Trivia Tom is the best, and Cam is your go-to for anything. Melissa knows how to pour a proper Guinness. I love how involved the owner is within the community. You'll see him mowing grass, fixing things, and still will stop to have a good chat. Best of all, dog friendly outside area.

I have a very severe allergy to gluten and eat at chick-fil-a often. I went here and requested a gluten free bun as well as them to change gloves, wash hands, etc. I was then given a glutinous bun and no refund. Will never eat at this location again.

We tried this beautiful place after moving our daughter out of her dorm at Iowa State. The atmosphere was great with high ceilings, an open air vibe and lovely natural lighting. The breeze coming through the large windows was so nice as we enjoyed our meal. We came for lunch and got sandwiches and salads. Bonus for us- gluten free bread options! Our waiter was especially helpful and charming with the style of an artist. I wish I had tried a coffee as it smelled amazing, but I will definitely be returning for that next time.

Love coming here for place to do my Bible study or writing. I highly recommend the hearty burrito (I get it as a bowl with vegan cheese and I'm Dairy free and Gluten free). It is quite filling and has a lot of protein! The atmosphere is so calming here. 😌 I love it.

I Always place order to pick up. Always so friendly and efficient!! Food is always so very good!! I have celiac disease and can't have any wheat or dairy. I order everything omelet with no cheese and double order of hash browns instead of pancakes, etc. I am highly sensitive and don't have a problem with that at all. Everyone is always so friendly. Food is always ready when I get there and it tastes wonderful!! Thank you!!
