POTUS' motorcade arrived at Machine Shed Restaurant in Urbandale at 2:25 PM CST.
The president walked in to a round of applause from diners at 2:30 PM.
A diner shouted, "Welcome to Iowa." Another shouted, "Iowa loves you."
President Trump took a group photo then started walking table to table.
It was hard to hear based on overheard music and how far away POTUS is.
