My twin daughters celebrate their 21st today and have chosen to go with my wife & me to Cornbread tonight. Just wondering what people have found to be their best food & drink options. BTW, please no "Choose somewhere else to go" responses - my daughters chose this place, so that is a non-negotiable. Thanks in advance!!

Honestly, you can't go wrong with anything. It's served family style, so if you like, you can get a large variety and share. With this heat, the Bourbon slush is amazing. My wife doesn't like bourbon and likes the slush version there.

I'll echo what others said. You can't really go wrong. Their "brisket and chill" is a holdover from when they were a food truck. It's very good. But it's all good, though.

I got their brisket chilli that covers a big piece of cornbread. It was pretty good and very filling. The hush puppies were really solid too.

Appreciate the feedback everyone! Has anyone had their cider drinks or beers - favorites that you'd recommend?

I'd call to make sure they are open/have meat. Who knows if they have a post RAGBRAI day off.

Cornbred is very good. The brisket and the jalapeno corn cake are my go-to.

The ribs at cornbred are incredibly good. They always sell out, so you might not be able to get them depending on when you get dinner.
