Coon Bowl III

Great Dive for sure. Tried this place out a couple of times, once over Memorial Day weekend and again this weekend after a weekend on Blackhawk Lake. They have the Cattleman’s Association’s «#2 best burger in Iowa.» It’s also an old school bowling alley complete with 70’s scoring computers and complimented by league photos on the walls from the same decade.
I ordered the cheeseburger both times and it was quality, juicy meat, big patty too! Fresh veg and bun. A classic nice big burger cooked well done weather you like it or not. Fine by me. I ordered cheese fries with it which were your basic thin crinkle cut run of the mill cheese fries. Nothing special but still darn good with that burger.
Service: just what you want in a dive. The owner/​manager lady was all smiles in the newspaper article behind our seats but in person it’s another story haha. Apparently it’s all bizzness lol. We didn’t mind though. It was a Sunday and like I said, this is the ultimate dive so love it up! The first time we did visit though service was very friendly but we had a different waitress.
Whenever I’m headed through this area it’s where I will stop to eat for sure. Good stuff!
