What's happened to Aunt Maudes? Not for the good.

If you want great quality food for reasonable to low prices, its tough to beat The Cafe. I still cant believe how resonable the prices usually are for great quality food hard to find in Ames.
I'm not an old-timer - maybe a middle-timer? - but it feels like Ames is going through a transition and a lot of the "old guard" places will be disappearing. Based on the number of Facebook posts I've seen, Omaha is, on a longer timeline, going through something similar.
The food scene in Ames is blah. A Runza needs to be built in campustown to rectify the situation.
Thats a you problem. There are plenty of good places in Ames. But you are a dumb *** so its not a shocker you feel this way.
Anytime your population demographic is pushing 70% (college and city Schools like system) of the city being under the age of 25, there won't be a lot of fancy steak houses.
In my opinion thete could be a few more nice places and it wouldn't hurt to get a Pazzesco type place back that's for sure.

Ames now has a Potbelly, which upped the restaurant game to the next level.
Just kidding, but it really is awesome that there is a Potbelly right by campus. Ames has a number of good places to eat, just not super high end stuff, which is for a limited audience anyway. There is fairly good ethnic food, which is a must for me.

I guess I need to up my food game.
I think Ames has good options, but then again I am perfectly happy with patty melt, french fries, and pint of beer.
OK, I lied. 5 pints of beer.

Pretty sure that's what I'd get. Were they blue layered tortillas?
Loved the bar area too. I always got a kick out of the Alcoholicos Anonymos framed print above the tappers.
