The magnificent Balltown view has been featured in a variety of magazines
and newspapers. Balltown is also the proud home to Breitbach's, Iowa's
oldest bar and restaurant. Breitbach's has been serving up homemade
goodness & homespun hospitality since 1852 and has served it up to such
famous people as outlaw Jesse James and Brooke Shields.
Iowa's oldest food and drinking establishment was opened in 1852 by
federal permit issued from President Millard Fillmore. Jacob Breitbach,
Great-Great-Grandfather of the present owner, worked for the original owner
and purchased the tavern in 1891. Since that time, the Breitbach
family has been in continuous ownership of this historical establishment
which is now on its sixth generation and seventh expansion. This
unique structure has been nominated to the Register of Historic Buildings
and its present owners, Mike and Cindy Breitbach, work hard to maintain the
restaurant's rich heritage.
