The Iron Press Anaheim - 1 Year Anniversary Party - Food Specials

Hey Everyone! Today is the day... our Anaheim location is turning 1 year old!
Come celebrate this exciting birthday with us from 5pm-10pm at the Anaheim Packing House. An amazing lineup of rare brews, your favorite beertenders, the greatest DJ in town, AND some amazing food specials await your arrival! Check out the birthday grub we have planned...

The Britney

Oops! We did it again! We made a delicious dinner special!! A chicken fried panko crusted filet mignon. It sits a top one of our famous golden waffles and is smothered in beef cheek gravy. Southern, trashy and classy! We think the Princess of Pop would agree, this is one delicious anniversary dinner!

Buddy Cake Waffle

Our Anniversary Waffle-Cake is made up with the help of our friends at Dolce Monachelli's. We use their super moist rum butter bunt cake and infused one inside every waffle. ...And so Leonard proclaimed, "LET THEM EAT CAKE, Waffle BUNT-CAKE that is". Happy birthday to YOU!!

See you all soon! Cheers!

Smoochies, 
The Iron Press Fam
