Best deal In Delano. Beers are always cold. Food is always good. Atmosphere hasn't changed in the 27 years I've been coming here (which is perfect). Great small town bar feel. Service is always wonderful. Never change, Dave's.

Dave's is a great place for good food at a cheap price. Where my kids can go and keep themselves busy (games or popcorn).

We had a great day here. Stopped in here randomly one Saturday after being in the area and had a blast! Food was your typical bar food but the best part of the day was the Meat Raffle! We ended up winning 2 times and came home with some local bacon, beef, and steaks. The bar and atmosphere are so cute for Delano, a small town, west of Mpls/St. Paul. There is a fish tank and a really, really cool train track setup that runs above you! They have such cute mannequins of local businesses and it creates such a unique experience. Staff was friendly, accomodating, and attentive during our dining exerpience! Definitely will be back for Meat Raffle and pull tabs, maybe not so much for the food.

Love love Dave's. His food is always great and his prices are amazing. Cocktails aren't bad either we go to Dave's as often as we can. Love the appetizers too bad they do not serve their prime rib anymore. It was the best. If you're in and they're super special is sauerkraut soup, you have to try it it's the best Thanks for serving your people. We have been going to Dave's for years

Need a good old tavern with cheap food and cold beer? Dave's Town Club is the place. Don't be scared off if you walk in the front door and it looks full, there's plenty of seating in the back, and some outside. The service is nice and quick. Be patient if it is busy, and it just may be, because, after all the food is great and did I say the beer is cold?! Unique decor in that there are saltwater fish tanks as well as a pretty cool train that goes around the front part of the place. Give this place a try. It will not break the bank, nor your hopes for a good place to eat.

Dave's is synonymous with Delano... It IS the city's bar. Guess what - I'm from Delano, so I love Dave's and the fact that I can almost never get a beer or food there without seeing someone I knew growing up. Dave himself is commonly working and may even bring your food out to you. If you grew up in a small town and miss that one place that everyone gathered - this will bring back some nostalgic vibes. The prices for both food and drinks are refreshingly reasonable. You won't need to take out a second mortgage to get a simple (read bar food) meal and drinks for you and your family. Bonus points if you love deep-fried appetizers and burgers (I always get the cajun cheeseburger). Some people rave about Dave's pizza and my family would get it because there were limited options in town. I think it is fine, but not a favorite. PS - Don't forget to checkout the train that encircles the bar/dining area downstairs.
