Est. Palo, Iowa
A refined gathering place on the edge of town — where handcrafted cocktails meet honest, hearty food beneath a tin ceiling that's seen a century of laughter.
Our Story
Tin Roof Tavern grew from a simple conviction: Palo deserves a place where the drinks are mixed with intention, the food is made with care, and every guest feels like they belong.
Tucked along Pleasant Creek Drive, our tavern carries the spirit of the old Midwest — unpretentious, generous, and deeply honest. Whether you're settling into a corner booth after a long day or raising a glass with friends on a Friday night, this is your table.
