Quackers Bar & Grill

The family took a little trip to St Joe to pickup a new smoker and on our way back like always everyone became hungry for some reason. Pulled into Mound City and seen the signage on the back of the bar slash Restaurant so we decided anything would be better than McDonald's.

You can tell the place is where all the avid waterfowl hunters come to drink and eat at the end of the day but that is okay with us as we hunt to. Walked in and were greeted by a table full of regulars and the waitress with open arms and smiles. We were seated and the special was a 16oz rib-eye and baked potato with a salad for $15.95 and thought what the hey. Food came out hot and on time and was one of the best steaks I have had in a long time other than my own amazing steak I grill. All was fresh and very tasty. Other than the food the service was great and we especially enjoy the Old boys club that was gathered and enjoying their day there as well.

So if you find yourself hungry and needing a stop along I29 I would highly recommend Quackers for a great meal along with a little ribbing from the Good Ole Boy table and have a laugh or two with them.

Big Luv

Mound City is in the middle of some prime hunting areas and this is definitely a hunter-oriented place - lots of game mounts on the walls - but since we're members of PETA (People Eating Tasty Animals) it was fine with us.

It's a rather small - maybe 16' x 35' - one-room bar and grill, half of one side being the bar.  One wide-screen TV, playing an HBO movie which we found fairly easy to ignore.

We both had the dinner special - $8.95 for grilled chicken breast with baked potato, grilled toast and salad.  The salad was iceberg lettuce with a leaf or two of radicchio, some red onion, tomato wedges,shredded cheese and croutons.  The chicken breast was charcoal grilled and juicy and the potato came with real butter, not margarine.  Sour cream (real, not artificial) is extra.  Good food, nothing fancy.

Dinner entrees are around $15-20, burgers & sandwiches under $10.
