The Boulder Tap House - Ames

Decent sports bar with well above average not quite stellar tap list, 50 taps, some local and other national craft and domestics. Service is hit or miss, but people have always been nice who worked there. Burgers are okay, perfectly serviceable but nothing spectacular. Also we have had several “suspect” pours of IPAs here that aren’t quite as that respective beer normally tastes - not sure if they are old/mishandled kegs, or dirty lines. Cheese curds are large cube shaped, not quite traditional, and are delicious! They offer 3 types of cheeses on the curds to select from. Also the fried avocado spears are great appetizers. Tacos were decent, the pork option was good. Prices are fairly typical but this place does offer decent happy hours on apps and drinks.

It’s game day and this place is SO loud. We had about a 20 minute wait. Of course it’s loud it is GAME DAY!! Considering the name when were seated we each got one menu for food and two for drinks, I wish I wasn’t driving! The burger choices were 6 or 8 ounce, nice sizes. I ordered a cheddar cheese burger with jalapeño fries. It was a nice lunch. First time here today, I’ll be back this is great place, Friendly staff and clean store.

Stopped in to catch the end of the Vikings game on our road trip back to Minnesota. The food was amazing. Gabe, our waiter, suggested some delicious menu items. The food was delicious, the service was spot on and lots of TV's to watch your favorite team play.Food: 5/5

Our first visit was awesome! We were promptly greeted and seated even though it was a full house. We had our drinks quickly, and were in and out within 35 minutes total. We had one minor hiccup with our order, but our host Michelle was prompt, friendly, and considerate! The burgers, cheese “curds”, and tater tots were delicious. Best curds and tots I’ve ever had. We were thanked on our way out by the staff at the door, too. Will definitely be back!

Bloody Mary and Nashville Hot Chicken with a side of cole slaw didn’t disappoint? The lettuce wraps looked awesome as they passed by on their way to another table. Huge beer selection. We will definitely be back to this restaurant when we are in Ames!

Had lunch, service was great, meals came out quick, Burgers were very good. I really like my cheese stuffed burger.

Great place! It wasn't too crowded, plenty of seating and TV's with sports showing. I ordered the Brown sugar and smoked cheddar Burger with fries and it was fantastic. Also a Boulder Margarita and a Tropical Sangria which the bartender I believe her name is Mac made VERY well. My server Chris was outstanding, he was helpful and always asking if I needed anything. If I come back to town in the future I will visit again.

Good burgers, we had the brown sugar smoked cheddar burger, the Cheese curd burger, and the blue cheese stuffed burger, they were very tasty! Also the cheese curds are to die for!!Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: NoTakeout: YesDelivery: NoCurbside pickup: No
