“Came in for Mobster Mary Sunday. Last Sunday of the month. Let me tell you this place is amazing, get there early if you want a seat! Hanna behind the bar is so AWESOME! All the staff is wonderful! 100% love this place. We come here for the Mobster Bloody Marys and on St Pats day for the food. Special menu delicious. Definitely recommend Maloney's in Eldridge amazing food and even better drinks.“

“Very old school local place. The bartender seemed to know the name of every person who walk through the door while I was sitting there for lunch. I ordered a burger and fries. The burger was not good. The price was right for what I got. Looks like a great place to hang out with friends and have a few drinks.“

“Was craving a burger and a brew from a small town bar. And I got it. The server was friendly, witty, and had the perfect demeanor. Burger was the quintessential off the grill kind of sandwich you could eat anytime of the day. Pretty damn good.“

“Jose’s fajitas meal was amazing!! It’s not on the menu as it is a specialty item so ask for it. It was everything he described and then some. The staff was kind which made for a pleasant experience. Would absolutely recommend this place.“

“Cute tavern with small booths. We popped in just for the Mac and Cheese. It was creamy and delicious. The menu offers something for everyone. The service was swift, and the food came out hot. There are so many unique decorations to look at.“

“Need a new craft beer to try? Then you need to check this place out! Retail and unique crafts on tap with a zen atmosphere to boot! Have loved this place for years now...they have something for everyone and the knowledge of their staff will help you find it!“

“We came all the way from Dallas Texas. This place is well worth it. From the customer service to the food. Everything came out so quick and food was delicious. Our waiter Emanuel and I believe the manager made sure we were taken care of at all times.“

“Our date night top spot. I've seen David Ramirez, SUSTO, Rum Ragged, Darren Kiely w/ Kyndel Inskeep and now John McCauley. Always amazing artists here! Love itParking: Parking right out front of doorWheelchair accessibility: No stairs or steps“

“Bootleg Hill is cool & chill! Listened to Patrick Moore perform, (so the place has to be amazing!) This place brings in local talent for open mic. I hear the Mead is awesome! I had a couple of NA options. Good drinks, good service, good vibes! Definitely support these guys! This place is way too cool to turn it into a sports bar. I’ll def be back.“

“Stopped in for the first time last night. Joined a group already seated by the fire pit and I had mentioned to my group that my beer tasted funny, than a man got up and said please let me replace it. Turns out we sat by the owners. I still would of drank it and was a but embarrassed. We will definitely be back, staff was all friendly, the band was great and they have an amazing outdoor space. Thank you for the hospitality!!!!!“

“Went there last night to meet some friends. Had an excellent dark beer and my wife had a glass of white wine. Nice atmosphere that could be enhanced by being a little warmer however. Service was very prompt and friendly. Like going there with out of town guests as well.“

“Good little bar. They do exactly what you would expect, plus a little more. Drinks are well made and bartenders are happy to experiment when a customer desires it. Cant complain on selection. Location is great, especially for ppl staying at the black hawk.“

“Waiter was AMAZING! I think his name was Jack. The food was delicious, and prices were decent. The owner checked on everybody in the restaurant. Very clean...including the bathroom!! DEFINITELY recommend this place! Oh yea, that cherry cobbler is everything!“

“This place is easy to miss entirely. A bar in a strip mall shared by a T Mobile store, a salon, and an FSBO homes outlet...if it weren't for the beer and liquor neon signs on the storefront, I'd have still been wondering what the place was. I guess Google maps helped too - they tend to be pretty accurate at identifying what businesses generally do.The overall appearance of the interior is not entirely cohesive. There's the normal mix of high top table seating and stools at the bar that's common at bars. The floors are a nice looking wood laminate - that was common enough, but clean in overall appearance. The lighting is also nicely done in the space - evenly dispersed incandescent or incandescent-like suspended metal fixtures are present throughout the space, providing a warm, low light level. The ceiling area, however, is fractured in overall appearance. The area behind the bar contains 2 x 4 foot drop ceiling tiles, while the rest of the drinking space is uncovered with visible wooden support frames, HVAC ductwork, and conduit.The area behind the bar is pretty interesting. The metallic or metallic-looking patterned tile were a neat accent, especially when paired with the yellow-orange strip lighting throughout. This also provided a nice way to partially illuminate the liquor bottles displayed along the bar.I was ready to order my standard Gin and Tonic and asked the bartender what their selection of gin included. She mentioned they had an orange flavored Tanqueray, what I've now come to understand was Tanqueray Sevilla Orange. This was something new for me, so I opted to try this in a Gin and Tonic. That was a good decision, as this is one of the best Gin and Tonics I've had in a while. The drink was smooth with light orange citrus notes throughout. If this is on offer when I'm out in the future, I'd definitely get this again.Probably not at The Q, though. I know I wrote some things about the ceiling that were a little picky. These aesthetic choices don't bother me severely - general ambient noise level does, however. The music was playing at a volume just above what I'd consider too loud. The effects were clear - the other 10 or so people in the bar were all talking far louder than normal just to be heard above the music. This is a big turn-off for me when places do this. I come out for a drink or two and some generally quiet conversation if I'm in a group. This place definitely wouldn't service this need.To be fair, The Q has a back patio area that wouldn't be feasible to use in the current winter weather. I'd consider visiting again in warmer weather and sitting in this area. In the meantime, I'd probably still stop in for a drink to wait for a significant other with a salon appointment or to shop for a phone if either of those specific scenarios were to arise. There's both TVs with sports and darts to pass the time.“

“My husband and I were so excited to find an arcade bar! I will say the initial impression we got was a bit confusing. There was no signage or employees letting you know how to get our quarters to play any of the machines. So we ended up having to wait in a very very long line at the bar just to get our quarters to play. Once we got started, the games were pretty fun. A few of them were out of order which is to be expected. There was an adult birthday party there during the time we went which was around 11 PM on a Saturday, so they really took over most of the arcade and most of the games for a long period of time we will definitely try again next time.“

“Excellent food, pleasant atmosphere (except a bit noisy). Our waitress was very attentive. First we had the Crab Beignets, which were delicious. Three of us had the Scallops, which was good; one had fish. Dessert was turtle cheesecake and coconut creme cake.“

“I had a pleasant visit to this cozy bar located at the bottom of the hill as you enter downtown. The morning crowd was friendly, and the prices were reasonable. I decided to try the open-faced roast beef, also known as Hot Beef, which turned out to be quite tasty.“

“Best bar I’ve found locally in my opinion. Everyone is very knowledgeable on what they serve! They have an awesome wine selection and wine room you can buy from! My boyfriend loves the bourbon they offer! Its a little higher price but well worth it for the service and atmosphere. It’s quiet yet cozy and welcoming. 5 stars if you ask me!“

“We were looking for a good bloody Mary and found this place. I'm here to tell you the bloody Mary's were the bomb. There food and service is amazing. Amazing smoked meats. Definitely found a place me and my wife can road trip to again and again. Loved it! Thanks juniors!“

“Great pitstop on my way from Chicago to Des Moines to remote work, drink, and watch the Women's World Cup game. Ideal service, nice drinks, fast wifi, best ambiance with music, many TVs, sangria special, and a cool fire pit on the patio.“

“Stopped in before leaving town, as I was in for an interview with a local company. Amanda was behind the bar and made it a great quick stop. She was fast, friendly, and had great information regarding the surrounding area. If I relocate, this will instantly be one of my go to locations.“

“Every now and then I have friends I'll visit in West Davenport. After work one day I was planning to meet with a few of them but unfortunately our plans fell through on my way driving to the place we were meeting. Since I was already nearly in the area, I decided to impulsively stop at Probstei. It had been recommended on the Quad Cities Subreddit, so I was eager to try them anyways.This place is decidedly not the normal sort of venue I frequent. There's a large sign of sorts on the building exterior proclaiming "welcome bikers". To clarify, I am not a biker, nor does my general appearance reflect any sort of associated stereotype for someone who chooses to ride a motorcycle.The interior is fairly small. There's a bar that runs the length of most of the space, a single pool table, and a few other tables. The floor is a combination of wood laminate and pretty old looking carpet, while the overhead consists of primarily plain drop ceiling. Lighting is low - a combination of a few accent strips and the various neon beer signs in the interior. It's quiet and easy on the eyes - I liked it.I opted for the patty melt on the menu with a side of fries. Both were alright. The only thing I was a little bummed about was the bread - it was advertised as rye, but ended up being white bread. Still, it was greasy and delicious.Of further note is the eclectic patio area around the side of the building. There's a variety of seating, including a few picnic tables, individual chairs, and even benches of the size children would likely use. It looks like a nice place to hang out during the warmer months.This is well away from home for me, so I probably won't be back. If you're in the area and need a quiet place to crash and enjoy a greasy bar meal, this might be for you. Thanks, Probstei.Vegetarian options: Consult with the server/bartender what might be vegetarian on the menu.Kid-friendliness: This probably isn't the best place to sit down for a family meal.aybe in the summer months if you want to sit outside.Parking: For the size of the venue there's plenty of free parking around the buildingWheelchair accessibility: The front entrance is wheelchair accessible.Dietary restrictions: Recommend consulting with the server/bartender about your particular dietary needs.“

“Wooden Nickel is Supburb place to stop and wet your whistle. Very relaxing Great drinks of the Variety They serve . Certain nights they have Ore Duerves and Sundag you can make your own Bloody Marys. Jukebox Slots Pool Table Patio. Definitely recomend. Prices are great.“

“I would give it five stars as it matures, by 4 is pretty dang good after going there during the break in period! Potential, that's what this restaurant has... and I believe it will fulfill if given the chance.... The chef is the Real Deal and the food is delicious! I will be keeping my eye on the pace as it has TONS of potential!!! I look forward to my next visit!“

“Quiet, beautiful, airy location was a perfect spot for a late breakfast this morning. My ham and swiss omelette was fantastic, as was the oatmeal with strawberries and blueberries that I was able to substitute in for hash browns and toast. Had a great chat with the server and got some tips on what to check out as I walk around town during my visit. Would definitely stop in here again during lunch or dinner to try something on their regular menu.“

“One of the best small town feel bars I've ever been to. The owners legitimately make you feel like family and their staff is superb, well trained, respectful, and knowledgeable. If this could be my home town bar I would be extremely happy! 12/10 highly recommend ?“

“I had an enchanting evening at this beautiful and elegant restaurant. The Delmonico cut steak was incredibly buttery and juicy, creating a warm and homey feeling when paired with the delightful bread and assorted butters. The carpeted flooring exuded elegance, complemented by a coat check at the entrance and a welcoming smile from the waitress. The highlight was the breathtaking view of the moon, adding a touch of magic to the entire experience. A truly memorable dining affair.“

“Thank you to Monica, Bob, and the rest of Boozie's staff for creating such a fun and welcoming place for our family and friends to hang out the morning of our wedding on 11-11! Everyone had a great time and said how they can see why we both love coming here.“

“It's a small bar. I always order ham and cheese Arabic bread sandwich. It's exquisite. They have decorated the walls of the place with a leaf design. Beautiful. Now it is called CUNCHIS, because whoever painted the G defined it that way...hahaha. . RECOMMENDED.“

“This place is amazing there are definitely really nice staff they are helpful and respectful they help alot and i use to work there i loved this place and i am very honored they let me get the job. I wish i didn't quit but it's ok they are still family to meIn summary this place is amazing definitely try it??“

“First time I tried Filipino food and it was very good. Only reason I gave food a 4 is because I wanted more limpia ?? I didn't know they were that small. My Pancit lasted me 2 days. I wish I could've ordered a margarita to go with my meal because I didn't want pop. Definitely going back to try something else ?“

“An old style restaurant which apparently lets people smoke inside if the restaurant. Went inside an it is very largr and can accommodate large parties or individuals. They have a few beers on tap and offer pepsi products for your beverage choice. Lots of burger choices for lunch. Went with the bbq pork sandwich which is topped with cole slaw and an order of fries. The bba sandwich was just ok the fries where very good. I would be willing to stop in again sometime.“
