What's not to love about Airliner? It is easily one of my favorite bars in Iowa City. A rare trait that I have for being a girl is that I LOVE watching sports, especially basketball. I am a die-hard Boston Celtics fan. So, as the playoffs have been heating up, I have been watching all of the games. There is nothing I love more than posting up at Airliner on a Thursday night (the Celtics have been playing on a lot of Thursday nights) in one of their booths, and watching the Celtics kick ass on one of Airliner's many TVs. What makes watching basketball on Thursday nights even better is that they feature half-price appetizers until 10, and, let me tell you, their appetizer menu is to. die. for. My personal favorite is their cheese curds (mmm, nothing better than straight up fried cheese), but I also love their spinach-artichoke dip, and my boyfriend can't get enough of their wings.
Also on Thursdays, Airliner serves two dollar domestic big beers. And the ads don't lie, the beers are indeed big. I have two of them and I am usually done for the night. So, all-in-all, I spent four dollars to get drunk. Not too bad.
I also love Airliner so much because of its atmosphere. It doesn't stress me out because it is completely over packed with people, and it is not so ridiculously loud like some bars that I need a megaphone to communicate with the person standing right next to me.
Airliner has been around Iowa City for quite some time now, and it is not hard to believe that this is the case. Year after year it has been a fan favorite, and they continue to do great business every year.
