Here at Tavern Blue our philosophy is work hard, play harder! As a group of local residents raising our families in Iowa we have grown to love it here, but still find ourselves missing the laid back beach vibes of the Pacific, Mediterranen, and European coasts we also call home. We wanted to bring a piece of this lifestyle to Iowa and the result is Tavern Blue.Inspired by life on the water, Tavern Blue is a casual environment offering authentic brick oven wood-fired pizza, a full sized bar with local craft beers, wines and signature cocktails, and plenty of options for gaming and entertainment.Our mini golf course is one of a kind: boats, jet skis and sailboats dot the landscape as you navigate through our 9-hole course that is both unique and challenging.We also have a variety of entertainment options including professional foosball tables, super sized Jenga and Connect 4. Or you can watch your favorite game on the bar’s 8 TVS or the big screen!

We thought the service was great. The food was delicious, the steaks were cooked exactly how we asked. The view was like a picture of the farms in Iowa. Overall it was a great experience and will eat there again if ever in that area again.

Maxwell's on the River is a great place to meet friends for lunch. The river view is beautiful and the interior decor is elegant. I had the Caesar Salad with grilled shrimp. It was delicious. Others loved the Brussels sprouts, fish tacos, etc. This is my favorite restaurant in Muscatine.
