We used La Crescent Event Center for our daughter and son-in-laws wedding last month with SwingBridge providing the bar service. Sarah and Tiffany were easy to work with, flexible about connecting and great communicators. Sarah was happy to accommodate our beverage needs without any fuss about our uncommon requests. Their bar staff the night of the wedding was pleasant and on their toes keeping our 200 guest hydrated and lines short. I received multiple compliments from friends and family about their polite and friendly service. During this busy, hectic time we really appreciated how easy and pleasant they made our experience. Their duck wontons and potato skins were a delicious treat while we were setting up the venue on Friday too!

This is a very nice place! The staff are all very friendly, the atmosphere is good, and the food is delicious! I had the broasted chicken and my wife had the chicken club sandwich. Both were excellent and served right off the grill... because they were hot! Plus, they have Spring Grove soda... a sweet, delicious, and local addition to our dinner!

Swing Bridge provided the bar service for a wedding in the La Crescent Event Center. Sarah (manager) was amazing to work with during the planning process. Her expertise and advice was crucial given we were planning from a distance. She even went over and above to acquire a specific spirit for the occasion. The staff during the event was so friendly and efficient - despite having 200 people in attendance, you never had to wait more than a minute or two for them to get mixed drinks served. And everyone always had a smiling face. I highly recommend talking to Sarah and her staff if you need anything during an event.

I had the rodeo burger and my wife had the avocado burger. Both were excellent! The fries were also very good. Some places treat fries as an after thought. These were nice and crispy and not burnt. Very good flavor. Our server was very helpful. They also have a pull tab machine.

Small little Restaurant/Bar. It’s connected with an indoor walkway to the Best Western Plus hotel. The restaurant isn’t big and was super busy at 5pm. The waitress said you need reservations on Friday but could seat us in 40-45 minutes or grab a seat at the bar. We got 2 seats at the bar and ordered a pint of beer! Tge bartender asked if we wanted food and handed us 2 menus. My wife got the prime rib sandwich and I got the bacon burger. The food was great. The staff was awesome. The bartender keep check on everyone. The atmosphere was fun but not loud. The staff amazing and the food great! Both meals and a specialty draft and tax/tip out the door for 40!

The salmon salad was delicious. Salmon was perfectly seasoned and cooked, juicy and tender with a crispy, flavorful crust. Pretty basic atop mixed greens with avocado and bacon, but was a winning combo. The service was fast and friendly, prices reasonable, and I was happy to see a fair number of gluten free options on the menu. I would definitely come back.
