I need to renew my license and the DOT building in Coralville doesn’t have an appointment open till mid September. Are appointments required? I remember just walking in and waiting like 20 minutes growing up.
My criteria would be

- good drinks/beer
- good food
- bonus points if they play the audio of a big game.
- a crowd that is invested in the games.
