Brady's Pub - Sheldon: A Culinary Gem in Sheldon, Iowa

We love Brady's! We make the 35 mile drive at least once a week and we've never had a bad meal. Great food, great service!!

What a pleasant surprise!! This is definitely a local hangout pub where the patrons are close to employees. Something that we love to see when we're on the road. Our server Kayla was so proud of her employers that she praised the chef's culinary schooling and the superb dishes that he creates. She also gave a nod to her co worker that got a best server award. Kayla suggested several good options and I chose the mushroom bacon burger. My husband chose the braised fried chicken. The food was damn good my eyes rolled!!! I've never eaten a full burger, but that one I did!!! So many flavors in each bite. The chicken wasn't greasy at all. Even the breast was moist. The lightly covered coating was very flavorful! I love to try the local beer, so I started off with a Ruthie's Exile. It was a lighter beer that could've been a little colder for me. (I like my beer really cold.) Then had to try what the locals were drinking, a Busch beer with green olives in it! YEP, olives!!! One and done for me even though I love olives, but not in my beer. Lol! I would SO recommend coming here. There was so many interesting selections of food. That I want to come back and try. Thank you Brady's Pub for a nice dinner!!

It's a really nice place with really good food. I live in a much larger city in Iowa with more fierce competition than Sheldon, Iowa. I think Brady's would hold up just fine. I will definitely stop back when I'm in town.

This is a perfect example of why you always ask a local what you should try. I was meeting my parents up in Sheldon and I felt like I had been to the same restaurants in that town every time. I asked my aunt that lives in town where she would recommend and she said Brady‘s Pub. I had never heard of it but after looking at the menu, I was more than excited to try it. After checking with the restaurant on accessibility, we met there and I was very impressed. It was a clean, updated, rustic vibe of a restaurant that was packed full of locals having a good time. The menu was extensive but everything sounded delicious. I love going to places that put their own spin on traditional options like burgers, sandwiches, etc. I will say for being so busy that the staff did a great job of staying on top of things. They were very friendly and reminded me why I love some small town restaurants. Of course we had to start with an order of tots. We opted for the totchos. What I loved about these was that they weren’t just fried and thrown together, they were seasoned, topped with fresh ingredients, and packed with flavor. My dad went with the smokehouse gourmet hotdog, which was wrapped in bacon and topped with pulled pork, coleslaw, and BBQ sauce. My sandwich was pretty tasty, but not very photogenic. I also opted for the sweet potato fries which were really good, but seasoned with brown sugar I think which made them sweeter than I would probably want, but maybe you’re into that. Needless to say, if you are passing through or find yourself in Sheldon, I would highly recommend Brady‘s Pub.

World-famous burgers and a great atmosphere! I was skeptical about the peanut butter and jalapeño burger, but wow, one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Highly recommend this spot for lunch. I’ll be back soon!

I had a delicious burger here that was plenty to eat. The prices were very reasonable. One star deducted on service as it took about 45 minutes to get our food.

Like many places, they seemed short staffed. Waitresses were running the a---- off. Burgers were barely lukewarm when served to us. You could tell they had sat awhile as buns had soaked up juices and were soggy. At least the beer was cold, and the waitress kept bringing them.

Made the motorcycle ride from Sioux City to Brady’s Pub for lunch. Found out when we got there they had just started opening on Saturdays for lunch. I hope they continue that tradition because the food was amazing, and service was best service hands down I have ever received. Absolutely will be making this run again!
