Backpocket Brewing - Dubuque, Iowa

 

Backpocket Brewing in Dubuque is a fun place to stop for snacks and games.  Pool and shuffleboard on the main level are free to play and duckpin bowling is $5 per person.  The basement has retro arcade games which range from 50-75 cents.

The food was good, but I don't like the setup.  You order from your phone, then go to the pickup window for food (which is nowhere near the tables) and wait for drinks to be delivered to your table, which came way after our food was ready.

UPDATE: We were at Backpocket in Dubuque again in June 2024 and our group really enjoyed duckpin bowling.  We didn't get food, but the drinks came out much more quickly this time.
