    While you're here, you need to go to RIBCO in Rock Island. Great beer selection.

    No I do not work there, but my daughter does, and they do not serve food. But right next door is Barrel House and a block east is Brix Pizza they both have good food. Both those places have craft beer selections on tap and bottles, but O'Keefe's has the best beer selection and 14-16 oz draws are $5.00.
