Bloomer's Sports Bar-n-Grill - A Great Place to Eat in Carroll, Iowa

If you ever pass through Carroll, Iowa, there is a restaurant you will have to try. It's Bloomers Sports Bar-n-Grill.

Bloomers boasts to have "The Coldest Beer in Town" and has several wide screen televisions so patrons can watch their favorite sporting events while they enjoy a night out. But Bloomers is way more than just the average sports bar.

Bloomers offers some of the best food in town as well. From sports termed burgers and sandwiches, to steaks, home-made soups and salads, Bloomers has it all. Their steaks are some of the best I've ever had at a restaurant. They are marinated in Bloomers' special marinade and grilled to perfection. They are tender and juicy. In short, they are fantastic.

Bloomers also offers a wide variety of sandwiches. They have a Grilled Pork loin sandwich. It is topped with your choice of American or Swiss cheese. It is filling, but it isn't heavy. It is definitely a "must try". Their Prime Rib steak sandwich is also another must try on the menu.

They offer a wide variety of appetizers as well as their entrees. These appetizers could serve as a meal. For example, their nacho platter is big enough to serve a family of 4 or 5 people. One person cannot eat this alone. They also make it to order, so you have a choice of chicken or beef, and can have any toppings on it that you want.

Bloomers also has fast friendly customer service. The proprietors, "Tank" and "Strauto" take turns at being there every night. They chat with the patrons throughout the restaurant and at the bar. Which makes the customers feel welcome. The staff are friendly and make new customers feel like regulars in no time at all.

Bloomers isn't just a bar. It is family friendly. They have a kid's menu that offers hot dogs, chicken strips, grilled cheese, or hamburgers. They even have "sippy" cups for the toddlers. Not many restaurants offer that kind of service.

There are also video games to occupy the kids while they wait for their food. This also allows their parents to sit back, relax, and enjoy a cold beverage.
