West DSM Bar to Watch Game?

[AmCyFan]

I'm looking for sports bar suggestions in the West DSM/Ankeny area to watch the game tomorrow night? Thought it would be fun to watch with other Cyclone fans. Thanks for any ideas.

In wdm I'd recommend either

Saints Jordan Creek (formerly mavericks)- TVs everywhere, usually a good ISU crowd for games.

Draught house 50- good number of TVs, great food, nice number of beer selections.

That's a huge range from WDM to Ankeny to be honest. I live in Ankeny and I know there are CF watch parties every conference game at Benchwarmer's.

Well, in WDM, the Cyclone bar would be The Keg Stand on Westown Pwky.

The Other Place has the game on most TV's, the big screen, and on sound. Also there are always plenty of Cyclone fans.

Thanks everyone! Appreciate your input!!

Keg stand is where you'll find the most fans. Draught house is good to, and has a solid Bloody Mary bar.

My buddy watched both the Maryland & SC games at Saints. It's cursed.

Cyclone fan in West DM here. I agree that Draught House 50, The Other Place and Saints by Jordan Creek are all good options.

I'm a big fan of the new Draught House 50, good setup of TVs and the food is solid

I think we're going to try Draught House. Great suggestions. Just want to be surrounded by other Cyclones.

Are the Draught House 50 and 1908 Draught House the same? Same menu, same drinks, decor, owner, etc??

 

[AmCyFan]

Will definitely stay away from the cursed bar!

Similar but not the same. Some common ownership, some of the same menu items iirc.

Which one has better food selection?

Ive never actually been to 1908, but looking at the menu, id say very comparable.

I have been there and they have good food and nice beer selections also lots of TV's
