Reserve Your Table for Dinner on the Docks

Two Dinner on the Dock seasons were cut short by the pandemic, but now it’s time to come together again on Thursday nights for live regional music, good food and tasty craft beer made on-site at Prairie Street Brewing Co.

An exciting lineup of regional bands features both returning favorites and some that are new to the venue.

“‘Come Together’ is our theme this year,” says Reed Sjostrom, chief brand and products officer. “It’s a nod to the Beatles song, but it’s also our way of saying we want people to come relax with us and just enjoy being together again.”

Three Good Men performed the Beatles classic on May 19, the opening of the 2022 season.

New this year is an expanded number of tables that can be reserved online up to 48 hours before the event. While reserving, you can pre-order appetizers not otherwise available. 

“You select the date, pick the table you want, choose your appetizer and find it delivered to your table at the selected time,” explains Sjostrom. “It’s nice to offer this convenience to folks. Maybe you want to be right next to the band or maybe a little further away so it’s easier to talk.”

The cost is $40 for a table for four, $60 for a table of six. For larger parties, call the events team to book a private room that overlooks the excitement. 

Another change is the addition of the Sizz N Fizz food truck on Thursdays, which will ease lines at the walk-up hot food tent. 

“It should be operating by mid to late June,” says Sjostrom.

Among the most popular returning bands on the 2022 lineup are Miles Nielsen & the Rusted Hearts, The Jimmys, The Trippin Billies (a Dave Matthews cover band) and Unity the Band.

Live music and food aren’t limited to Thursdays. Monday night Dockside Live features all-local bands from 6-9 p.m. and is presented in partnership with WNIJ radio. Admission is free. 

“It’s a lower-key, more relaxed, intimate night,” says Sjostrom.
