Restaurants in Ames.
- Thread starter dafarmer
- Start date
They're fully staffed. You just have to look in the aisles for the employees stocking shelves and filling online orders.
Why would they pay people to check you out when you will do it for them?
Nothing more typical than a restaurant thread on CF turning into a bunch of cheap Iowas complaining about how expensive fast food is. Gotta love it.
Yep. They've been advertising for awhile, more so since the semester ended. What used to be 35-minute delivery is now routinely 60.
No, the more typical thing would be a fight over if hickory park was overrated or not.
I haven't been out to eat in Ames in years besides Cornbred, can't pass that up
Someday I’ll be rich enough to eat waygu grass fed burgers…someday.
I actually prefer sweet Caroline’s over cornbred. I thought CB was okay but nothing fabulous.
Still on a personal protest on discontinuing the cherry shake.
When I moved to CT in 2010 I was told Five Guys was the place to go out here by everyone. One of the most overrated places I have been to. Especially with how expensive they are. I am usually not picky with food in any way but Five Guys is one of the few places I have left and said, “So that was it?” I just didn’t understand the hype. Then I heard it was heading to Iowa a few years later, and so many of my friends and family in Iowa were jacked. Told them to lower the expectations and you have a shot. They all had it and agreed.
Honestly if it was the insanely stupid price for their food it would be a lot better but damn it’s expensive for what it is.
Wendy's is very much still open. Went there last weekend and was open at lunch today when I went by. Maybe just limited hours.
Also, this. Last I went there were I think 4 cars in front of me, and it took around 20 minutes. Food was good though when I got it.

They have bomb bbq.
I've never heard of Sweet Caroline's. After looking into it, is that the old Old Main building?
Looking at the pictures, it looks like the old Old Main building. It looks like the little beer garden they have is where the brewing tanks used to be.
Yes to Olde Main's previous space and I'm pretty sure it's the same owners as Whiskey River.
