Iowa City Yacht Club

So much fun! An Iowa City favorite.

Who would expect something so cool in Iowa City? Laid back basement lounge/bar.

Great place to watch some shows.
Old building with nice yacht club tiled entry way in DT IC near the Englert theatre and clock tower parking ramp.
The lil' person (cant remember his name) is a great guy that will let take your cover (if there is one depending on the night) and let you enter the lower lair.
Its a basement party and laid back and great place to grab a drink and relax and enjoy the show.
I believe Mon night is Blues night and Tues is Jazz night with open jam sessions.
Lots of good bands from all genres play here.
Small stage with all the water pipes and everything else to contend with up there too.. just adds to the ambience.
Head back to the black light and tripping walk to the restrooms (watch doing this if you're wasted, or fun to watch others).

Drinks are decent prices from other DT IC bars.
