The band thing started fall 2010 and has exploded into a great time. New Management. Drink specials! See ya there soon!!!!

I love the Meeting House! The only thing that could make it better would be a bigger selection of food, but it is a bar after all. The patrons are all friendly and make for some interesting company.

Small but a great place to just chill out...I enjoy a drink or two there. hottest bartenders? I think brewers might give them a run for their money

Hottest female bartenders in Ames are found here. Bar is nothing to brag about, it is small and cramped, but let‘s face it, with these bartenders, it could be a smelly fish house and I would still go :)

Great place to pick up a poker game. The bartenders are usually pretty cool, but the prices suck. When you have to pay $5.50 for a jagerbomb half the size of what it should be, thats BULLSHIT!

Too smoke filled but still a decent place to get a drink. Has kind of a neighborhood feel. Danny runs a good bar for sure, better than most of the college kid hangouts.
