The Naughty Dog Coffee Shop & Deli
People can be described in a variety of ways. Some people are “dog people.” Some are “coffee people.” For anyone that exists at the intersection of those two sub-groups, the Naughty Dog Coffee Shop and Deli is for you. Now existing at the intersection of Locust and 11th Streets (across from the Carnegie-Stout Public Library), the Naughty Dog is the area’s first coffee shop and deli to embrace those who love their dogs, but gotta have their coffee too.
Actually, the Naughty Dog is for anyone who likes good coffee and good food and the latter encompasses just about everyone. Offering a full line of specialty coffee drinks, the coffee shop and deli also carries a menu of fresh-made sandwiches, salads, and homemade desserts....

Tastes of University Hill
| Back in the day (ancient times when Mike Ironside went to Loras), there were four bars on what can best be dubbed University Hill – Whiskey River, The Avenue Top (known to everyone as “The Ave”), Gomer’s, and the bar then known as the Barrel Tap and, later, Schrobie’s. Of course, this was before the drinking age changed to 21, so every weekend there were hordes of drunken college kids packing the bars and roaming the streets between them.

Rafters Reborn: A new take on the classic restaurant

Tabor Home Vineyards
| Take a ride with us to the heart of Jackson County, to a place that could be considered the birthplace of the Iowa wine industry, to a farm that one family calls home. Maquoketa, Iowa, lies south of Dubuque along Highway 61. West of Maquoketa and 61 lies the tiny town of Baldwin, Iowa, and just a couple of miles north of Baldwin lies a family farm that has been home to the Tabor family for nearly 150 years.
