our dear old burch

Welcome to St. Burch Tavern — aspiring counterpart of the timeless taverns and supper clubs immortalized by the brilliant men and women who gathered together under their hospitable roofs! A glance at the mementos covering the walls reveals the tavern’s kinship with the town and University. St. Burch aims to attract people who appreciate the best of food served in cordial surroundings. Today, this tavern flourishes without sacrifice of dignity and old-fashioned ideals. It bids its guests relax and refresh themselves within its friendly confines.

We dedicate this establishment to the indomitable spirit of Burch the Bear, Iowa's original mascot, who left his Idaho home to attract the favors of the God of Chance to his beloved State University of Iowa. May he rest in peace and forever watch over us all.
