J&R's Saloon

JR was the only drinking establishment next to the hotel. The facility is clean (including the bathrooms) and Carly never let my drink run dry. Stayed longer than originally planned. The locals were friendly and great conversationalist. They even changed a tv to Monday night football for me. They have pizza and wings on the menu, however, I didn’t eat, so I can’t rate the food.

One of the best, down home, friendliest bars in western (but note it is in the SW) Iowa. The regulars will welcome anyone coming into there, so don't have any reservations about going to visit this cool little bar. It is very clean, and the service is excellent. There has been many top notch musicians playing there as well for the last couple of years now so check it out if you are planning to going to Shenandoah, or stopping through!
