The Montrose Sandbar building and sign along the Mississippi River

Montrose, Iowa · Est. 2019

Montrose Sandbar

A laid-back riverside bar & grill on the Mississippi — cold beer in chilled mugs, hearty tavern food, and sunsets across the water from Nauvoo.

On the water, off the clock

Formerly Kinnick on the River, the Sandbar was rebranded in March 2019 into the easygoing riverside spot locals know today. Big windows frame the Mississippi and the decor is beachy and warm.

Inside you'll find live music and karaoke nights — plus classic mixed drinks and a Bloody Mary worth the drive.
