Jack & Diane's - a total dive.

Tonight I finally got to experience a bar/restaurant in town that has been on my mind for months. I hear commercials and reviews on Jack & Diane's all the time and have wanted to see this place for forever! So, tonight Missy, Lauren, and I decided to head that way for a cold beer as we head into weekend mode.

Even after driving through the prairies to get there, I knew I had found a good match for myself. This place is a total dive with a great vibe, lovely outdoor seating, open room, and good bands most nights of the week. The crowd was very sparse but, it is a weeknight after all. The bartender says they stay pretty full on weekends so I will have to make sure to try it one weekend when I'm back in town. Though I had already eaten, the food looked amazing and made me wish I was still hungry! Anyone searching for a relaxed and very local place to hang out, this is your place.

It's always good to try something new - especially when it's supporting the "locals" and different than other options.
