Came to Iowa from Washington for a wedding. Only spent 24 hours in Iowa and 6 of them were spent here! Best bar/saloon Ive EVER been to. Amazing nightlife. Amazing drinks. We felt very safe here thanks to front door & walk around security, Chill dudes. Weve already talked about coming back to Iowa just to go to the Hazzard County American Saloon

Pretty awesome atmosphere for the younger crowd. I liked how it has huge open doors to the outside. Being a visitor here was the first time Ive seen that many people in iowa lol

Witnessed over-serving young people, the only good time to go was during the day in the summer. Now days not enforcing mask, overly packed

Review №4

As a result of going to hazards my whole family got covid-19 and died because they dont enforce masks. I also saw rats walking around and biting peoples ankles so I called the police to come arrest the rats. We were angry so we left. As I was driving away from the bar, the rats from the bar followed me and my family and kept attacking us. Two of them got into the car and attacked my dad who was driving, and he crashed his car.I would avoid going here.

Definitely different from the rest. When the DJ puts on the line dances the place comes alive. The drinks are as expected and the prices are reasonable.

Had to settle for a 1-star rating since it’s the lowest option. Feels like I’m being a bit nice giving a star at all.

Cheap drinks, good music, great stage for dancing. A must-visit bar in downtown CR if you’re into loud country music, drunk & fun-loving folk, and dancing. A go-to bar for most of the college kids in town, but a good hangout for people of all ages (21+ of course).

No place like it In Cedar Rapids. Lots of room, tvs playing live sports and food served. The staff is amazing and their barback is the best Ive ever seen. I dont know how one person keeps everybody stocked. Ill def be going back there and I suggest everyone do the same.

Not a big fan of the Country Western Scene (I prefer Metal). But I did walk out with some cute girls clinging to each arm. Ill probably hit up this place if Im ever in Cedar Rapids again.

Such a huge space with so much going on! They have a dance floor, DJ, large bar, darts, pool, beer pong, bags, outdoor seating, bands, food truck, etc.

Its just ok. Its set up very weird. I could see it as more of a place for a rave but used as a country bar doesnt fit it. It gave me an uncomfortable vibe so I couldnt really enjoy myself

If you have a license that is issued by any state other than Iowa, be sure to MEMORIZE every date on it before you go to this bar. Or better yet, no matter where youre from, go to any bar in Cedar Rapids other than this one. My daughter and 11 of her college friends have gathered at our house this weekend for a little reunion before they all head off to grad school. They asked my husband and I to give them rides downtown so they could go check out Hazzards and a couple other bars. The bouncer at Hazzard County IDd them and let them all in, no questions asked, except the one girl who had an out of state license (MN)....and the reason is because he asked her WHAT DATE HER LICENSE WAS ISSUED and she was off by 1 year!! I completely understand scrutinizing an ID, but how many people know the exact date their license was issued?? The funny part is...if the license really was a fake, she would have certainly had every date on it memorized! My husband even talked to the bouncer a few minutes after the fact to vouch for her and assure him that the license is not a fake and the bouncer was having none of it. He didnt care if she was of age or not - he didnt want her business. The entire group promptly left and took their money elsewhere. Hopefully, anyone reading this review does the same.***Judging by the owners/managers snide responses to any poor reviews left here on Google, he/she could use some serious customer service training. If I had read any of these remarks before taking this group downtown, they would not have stepped foot in this bar in the first place.

Ive went to Hazzard many times. Always have had a great time. Great staff and good music. Gets a pretty decent crowd. Its nice when the beer garden is open and can hang out outside. I take family there when they come in from out of town.

Review №31

Hazards usually has a good crowd. They also have pool tables and dart boards if you want something to do. If you’re not into loud country music though, you might want to try a different bar.

Fantastic bar! Definitely the most popular of the Cedar Rapids area. The staff are friendly and the security is always on the look out to make sure everyone has a safe and fun time! The bartenders make really good drinks that are fairly priced for what you get, and there are various DJs that come and really spice up the country atmosphere! 10/10.

They have some games to play like jenga, cornhole, darts, and beer pong. The music is usually pretty loud so prepare for ringing ears. Staff has been helpful and fast each time weve gone

This place is absolutely terrible when it comes to cleanliness, hospitality and simply everything else. The staff is the most unfriendly Ive ever encountered. I would highly suggest not stepping foot in this establishment unless you enjoy ruining your shoes, buying over priced drinks and being treated terribly.

I really do like this place. Im a fan of the country atmosphere, and the bartenders take care of you if you take care of them (the same as most places). Overall a good place to bring a group of young people from the country if they are up for a good time that night.

Review №47

I usually go here every weekend. I love the atmosphere and the music! I love Brett, he gets my drink right away and is always friendly. Same with the security staff! The only complaint I would have would be the restrooms. But what can you expect, its a very busy place! Keep up the good work! :)

Would love it if they changed the songs up at least a little bit. If you go there Thursday-Saturday nights, you will hear the same songs every night. Gets kinda monotonous. Im sure theres been more than 20 country songs ever made. Other than that, I have a good time most of the times Im there

Was here on St. Patrick’s Day. I’ve never been in a more crowded place. It took, no joke, about 10 minutes to get from the door to the back corner of the bar. To get a beer? Even longer. It was a mostly white dude crowd and it seemed half of them were peacocking around looking for a fight.I don’t frequent Cedar Rapids bars, but there has to be a better place to go.. unless you like squeezing through crowds bumping into douchebags looking for a fight and waiting 15 minutes for slightly above room temperature beer.

Went on a Friday, staff was very rude, bouncers very unprofessional. Bathrooms very dirty. There was feces all over the handicap stall. Puke all over as well. I will not be going back! Owner made a very petty response and checked on the bathroom a month after my review....yikes.

Only bar in town where you can set your watch by what is playing. DJ hasnt played anything new in the last year. Doesnt even switch up the order. Only reprieve is when theres a band with is 10x better.

Review №66

Hazzards Country American Saloon is your stereotypical small county bar - and it couldnt own that label any better. Hazzards plays excellent country/country derived music that is perfect for dancing and drinking.Hazzards is not good if you are looking to sit down and have a conversation. The venue is more geared to dancing and is usually very loud and crowded.

This place is an absolute joke! first off the bartender that works in the back is the most unprofessional arrogant bartender you will ever meet. If you want to pay $5 a shot for some pineapple juice with no alcohol this is your spot. all of their drinks are watered down in tiny crappy cups with no ice. Theyre jello shots taste like straight up your Jello with no alcohol and they charge you triple the price on everything. The owner needs to hire all new staff because the staff that works there bring their girlfriends and gives away free drinks to them and treat paying customers like crap. The music that they play at this bar is like 8 of the same mainstream top 10 hits from 1999 over and over and over again the DJ needs fired too. Underage drinkers are here as well which creates a terrible atmosphere. It would be nice if this place got shut down and we open an actual real bar!! This is Cedar Rapids Iowa not Timbuktu Tennessee . I absolutely hate this bar trust me once you spend at least an hour here youll feel the same. Ive been to this bar twice and every time there is a major fights and bull because the bartenders give free drinks out to their girlfriends and overcharged paying customers. Dont waste your time at the hole in the ground.

One of the worst bar experiences I’ve ever had. The entire place smells like a gym sock. The bartenders are abrasive and don’t know how to make anything that takes more than two ingredients. Overall - terrible establishment. 1/10
