We’re a state of water lovers here in Nebraska, which makes sense since we do have thousands of lakes and more miles of river than any other state. As soon as the weather warms up a bit, you can catch us out on the water swimming, fishing, boating, and playing in any number of ways. No matter how you have your fun on the water this summer, one thing is true for everyone: it’s bound to make you hungry.
If you happen to be spending your river time in Decatur, you'll want to head to Pop-n-Doc's Marina for a meal that will keep you going through the rest of the day.
Things can get a little loud here on summer nights, but it wouldn't be a river hangout if that weren't true, right? If you show up on the right night you'll be treated to the sweet sounds of a local band as you chow down.
Pop-n-Doc's is the kind of place where, okay, you should probably put on some shoes and a shirt. But no one says that shirt has to have sleeves, and flip-flops 100% qualify as shoes. There's nothing fancy here, just good Nebraska fun.
The beers are always cold, the mixed drinks are always stiff, and the company is always fun. And what about the food? This locally owned grill goes above and beyond to serve you the juiciest, tenderest, most mouthwatering burger ever.
If you're not into beef that day, no worries. Order up some Alaskan walleye or chicken strips. This fried goodness may be too rich for you on a regular day, but on a river day you're sure to burn those calories off by sunset.
The pork tenderloins here are legendary, and one bite will tell you why. But you've got to get the Mary Burger at least once. Loaded with buttery fried onions and two slices of cheese, this burger will be the subject of many future cravings.
Lots of fun events take place at Pop-n-Doc's throughout the summer months. You can even host your private parties here to show your guests a truly great time.
Whether you stop in before your river day or after, you'll find a lively crowd here just enjoying the outdoors, trading fishing stories, and planning their next adventures. This is the kind of place you want to plant yourself at all summer long.
Pop-n-Doc’s Decatur Marina is located at 3000 Hutton Drive, Decatur, NE. It’s only open during the summer months; the opening date for 2019 is set for May 15, so mark your calendar! Keep up with the marina’s news, along with hours, specials, and events, on its Facebook page.
