Iowans know corn. Iowans know pork. And the Iowans at Iowa Cafe know pie, the kind Grandma used to set out on the windowsill to cool. Rhubarb, butterscotch, chocolate peanut butter, apple and cherry are popular all year long, but pumpkin and pecan pies get a workout during the holiday season. It also serves home-style breakfast, lunch and dinner items, including cinnamon rolls, corned-beef hash and eggs, biscuits and gravy, sandwiches (including the house-specialty Reuben), meatloaf and breaded pork chops.
