Large Parites
Driftless has many options to accommodate large parties. These includes reserving groups of tables (up to 22), renting out the bar area (up to 30) or utilizing rooms at backpocket (20-120), which can then serve Driftless Pizza. Simply let us know what you are thinking and we will work to make it happen.
-
What spaces are available in Driftless?South Wall - This is a single long booth of up to 5 tables and can seat up to 22 comfortably. For smaller groups, less tables are used. Space between tables must be maintained so people can get in and out of the booth side. Central Table - The two center tables can be reserved to seat 20. Bar Area - The whole bar area can be reserved. This has 10 bar stools and 3 tables of 12 additional stools as well as a table to setup a buffet for food. In addition spaces in Backpocket can be made available.
-
Is there a fee?There is a $50 fee for the bar area.
-
Are there blackout times?Sometimes will not be available for all spaces. This will be dependent on the exact circumstances. The large the group size during the busiest hours (weekend evenings) will be the most difficult. Please reach out to inquire. That said, the event spaces in Backpocket are always open to be booked at any time and we can try to help you there if Driftless is not an option. Pizza can be taken to Backpocket.
-
What type of service can I expect?If you are seating the main dining room you will have a server who can take your orders for food and drink. If you rent out the bar area you can choose between table service and a buffet setup with bartender for drinks.
-
How do we order food?In the main area you will have a server who will take food and drink orders. However the larger the group the more it might make sense to put the food order in ahead of time. We don't require this, but it might make thing run smoother. Up to you.
-
Can we split checks?Yes you can split your checks.
-
What does backpocket offer?Backpocket is a brewery taproom that has a lot of entertainment options including Pool, Bowling, and a Retro Arcade.
-
Can my guests go to Backpocket?Yes. Once you are done (or before) you are welcome to go to backpocket. Tabs can move back and forth as can drinks.
-
Can I take Driftless Pizza into Backpocket?Yes. Events in Backpocket can order Driftless pizza. There is a limit of 10 pizzas. There is no fee for this.
-
Can I order Backpocket Food in Driftless?Generally No. The two restaurants operate under very different workflows that are independent so your server will not be able to put an order in from the backpocket menu. That said if you are renting out the bar section and set up a buffet, it is possible to add menu items off the backpocket catering menu (wings, tacos, sliders). Menu at www.backpcketdubuque.com/food
