Trailside Tap - Ankeny

This was a really fun spot. Parking lot was kind of small and tight. We came for brunch and had a pretty good variety. The place seemed to be pretty filled up. The one turn off we had was that there was a couple smooshed flies eye level to the window like inched from us eating. We were sitting right next to it which was really unappealing. A small issue but definitely a turn off. The food and service was great overall though. Would probably want to try again, and not sit next to the window filled with fly guts ‍

This place has jumped the shark already. Sticky tables, no coasters for drinks which leaves a totally wet table, salmon sandwich the size of your thumb The two stars are for the appetizer Actually had to make a grilled cheese sandwich at home to fill the void.. should have went to Trostels and will moving forward Service: Dine in

Came on a Sunday. They had an amazing Sunday brunch menu. I had the breakfast burger with egg, Ham and a homemade tobasco aioli sauce. I had this on a gluten free bun. The meat was amazing tasting and the compliments took it to another level. This was literally the best burger I had in my life. Service was amazing , friendly and efficient .

Best breakfast and lunch menu in Ankeny and possibly greater DSM. Great bar and staff. Just a great experience every time we go.

Went for brunch, had to wait 20 minutes while there were clearly tables open, then waited another 45 minutes for my food, which came in the smallest portions I’ve ever seen. The eggs were way over salted, bacon was alright, and toast was bland and soggy. Meal type: Brunch Food: 1 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 2
