Tap Rooms Iowa

That rent has to be insane. Can’t say I was surprised when they closed down. Only brewery in Iowa that makes sense to me would be Toppling, but they wouldn’t do that.
Toppling is planning to build in the Drake neighborhood
Haven’t seen any updates on that recently either but I think the timeline was 2025
pipe dream but would love if someone like Surly or Boulevard would take it over and make it a tap room, of sorts
I recommend checking out The Map Room. It’s a cool little bar/restaurant with good food and beer on 3rd. If you like a good Italian beef then go to Gianna’s also on 3rd.
From the outside looking in, that place was poorly managed. They started off really strong but at one point their food menu, which was pretty good, totally changed and the food was awful. From what I understand, they lost their first chef and struggled with finding someone who knew what they were doing in the kitchen, along with what appeared to be staffing issues. IMO the beer wasn't good enough to carry it on its own. It's too bad because they were right on the bike trail, had a fantastic outdoor space, and a dog park.
Yes, we've been there and liked it. The last time we went, the next day pretty much everything shut down because of covid. It was the last time we ate out for months.
Field Day had some excellent beer. The Lion Bridge tap list kind of sucked. Clock house continues to be the best beer in the area IMO.
On a side note, there are few things better than watching the cyclones win, while in hawkeye country.

My dream is someone established who knows what they’re doing buys it
Make good beer and be open consistent hours and I’m confident anyone could make it work in this location
Bike path + dog park + waukee yuppies should be a money printer
Hopefully not because 1st down is way better then 1717, they sucked at making beer when they were in the east village
That area is where the next housing boom in waukee is
I'm not going to speak for the people in charge, but I do know several of them, and I would put the odds of Pulpit ever opening a second tap room at some where between 0 and 1%. Especially one 3.5 hours from Decorah.
Commercial development that is not an absolute destination requires rooftops that exist now. Future beers don't pay the rent.
