129 Coffee and Wine Bar

"During our visit to Le Claire, Iowa we stumbled upon 129 Coffee and Wine Bar while strolling along the street. We were looking for a spot where we could sit outside and enjoy views of the Mississippi River, and this quaint little bar fit the bill perfectly. The outdoor deck, which faces the river, offers stunning views—especially if you're lucky enough to catch a river cruise ship passing by. However, with only about four tables available outside, seating can be limited during busier times. Our experience was quite pleasant. We were greeted promptly, however our waitress was busy and tried to be attentive throughout our visit. The outdoor space was lovely, although some nearby patrons were a bit loud, which slightly detracted from the relaxing atmosphere we had hoped for—not that it was the establishment's fault. We eventually moved inside and found the bar to be cozy and inviting, with various seating options, including bar seating, high-top tables, and a cozy corner table with cushioned seating for four. The atmosphere inside was cheerful and welcoming. While we didn't order food, I tried their espresso martini, and my husband had a Pinot Noir. Both drinks were decent, though we found them to be on the pricey side. For a cocktail like an espresso martini, which was over $10, I expected a bit more flair in the presentation, such as a coffee bean or cocoa garnish, but this one lacked those touches. Overall, we loved our experience and will definitely return the next time we're in Le Claire."

"Nice laid-back place with ton of different wines to pick from. Great host."

"Warm, cozy and nice selection of wine & martini's. Friendly staff."

"This is one of our favorite spots to just grab a night cap. The drinks are tasty and not overpriced. They often have live entertainment. However it’s never so loud that you can’t enjoy conversation. Great service as well."

"My sister and I really enjoyed our visit here! We both ordered martinis and thought they were excellent. We also ordered the meat and cheese platter and loved it! Everything was very tasty. Employees were so friendly and the inside is decorated very nicely. Great place to come with friends or even for a date!"
