Editorial Juice Review: Bauder's Pharmacy
Bauder's Pharmacy
Adrian Branstad, 26, and Eric Branstad, are regulars are Bauder's Pharmacy. (Steven Sable/Special to Juice)
The cafe inside Bauder's Pharmacy is known for its healthy food options and friendly neighborhood atmosphere. It's also one of the last places in town that still offers homemade hard-serve ice cream. The menu includes grilled cheese sandwiches, walking tacos, pizzas, sodas, and an assortment of floats. During the summer months, stop in and enjoy fresh peaches and strawberries with an ice-cold root beer float. Bauder's Pharmacy also has a stand at the Iowa State Fair where people wait patiently for a taste of their warm and gooey peppermint bars, a delicious concoction of Oreo crust, ice cream, and hot fudge.
