Ace of Spades Saloon opens its doors on Spring Avenue in downtown Waukon

The Ace of Spades Saloon opened for business October 24 at 7 Spring Avenue in Waukon. Owner Dillon Dietrich and Manager Matt Doubek, both Waukon High School graduates, say they hope to provide a new place for area residents to have a good time in a relaxing, upbeat and welcoming atmosphere. Originally from Waukon, Dietrich said he also wants to try and make Waukon a better place to live and associate with others.
Dietrich describes Ace of Spades Saloon as a fun place for all ages with a clean, friendly atmosphere where area residents can enjoy their favorite beverages, events, cards and leagues. He says the most rewarding thing about opening his business in Waukon has been the opportunity to restore and remodel a downtown building. He added that he is very excited to meet and get to know the great people of Waukon and the surrounding area.
In the future, Dietrich says he hopes to make the upper floor of the building handicap accessible so that the banquet hall located there is usable by more people.
The Ace of Spades Saloon is open Monday through Thursday from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. and Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. For more information, call 563-217-3005.
