Manning's Whistle Stop

We stopped here on the birthday party bus. Regulars seemed put out that we came in. One of the two bartenders was very helpful and friendly. The drinks were good and reasonably priced. Live music too which was cool.Service: 4/5

Thank god we found this place. We had a rough day after visiting two other places in the area with bad or no service. Bartenders were great and our food was just as good. Very clean and the other people at the bar were personable.

We love this place! It's nice and clean and the food is fantastic!

Inundated by fellow crew members late on a Labor day Friday unannounced... The bartender kept up and was very accommodating, the spicy Bloody Marys weren't bad either! She deserves a wooden Steamboat souvenir whistle from the American Queen Steamboat on our next visit!

Wanted a quick new place to eat. Found this hole in the wall. It was more then that! The food was great. The atmosphere was inviting and employees very pleasant. Got or food nice and hot. Service was exceptional. Will return again. Parking: They have more then enough parking. With 2 entrances and exits.

My Lady Friend and Myself arrived at this Eatery on the Early Evening of Mother's Day. We were there for primarily some Cocktails and Dinner. Upon questioning the Bartender it was discovered that there were no Kitchen Staff present and that Sheena, the Bartender, would be tasked with any Kitchen Duties as well. We were in awe of Her abilities to pull it off. The Atmosphere, Service, and Quisine were outstanding!!! We leisurely walked Ourselves thru Cocktails, Appetizers, and Entrees and it was delicious!!! The only thing the was lacking was a choice of Desert, I would recommend having a choice of Cheesecake Slices to end the Meal in pure perfection?! Both My Lady Friend and Myself had a wonderful experience Here and would highly recommend "Manning's Whistle Stop" as a must Visit!!! Thank You from the bottom of Our Hearts to "Manning's Whistle Stop", located on 2nd St. North within Clinton, Iowa, for providing a, nothing short of an excellent experience on this very Special Day, "Mother's Day" for both My Lady Friend and Myself!!! Sincerely, James Lee and Maryann Micole on the Mighty Mississippi..!!!

Great bartenders, and great service... The live music was AWESOME! Four stars since they only accepted cash. They did have an ATM on site Being new to the area, I give this place a thumbs up. Over all, a fun time was had by all, and I will definitely be a repeat customer.

What a nice place. I cant wait to go back and try their food.

This place is awesome. The food is great, good atmosphere, and the bartender Tucker has the singing voice of an angel. He sang the Dirty Dancing song four times.

Food is great, pool tables are well kept and service is fantastic.
