21 Best Sports Bars in Des Moines

“We had our Holiday party there on Saturday January 20th. The food was good, and the staff was excellent.“

“The chicken sandwich is fire and the staff is great“

“It definitely has changed from when I have been there years ago, but it's definitely for the better. Whe. You walk in its nice and open on the right to have conversations you can hear and pool tables on the right. It now has a jukebox (it's what I still call it) and no longer a stage. You can tell that business is not as busy since the changes, hopefully it picks back up for whoever the brave bar owner is. The bar staff ,she was happy,honest and just plain people's, with drinks with perfect mixtures, that make you feel relaxed and at home.“

“I DO NOT RECOMMEND!! It appears they have their do no recommend set so that your post cannot publish. Called this morning to let the staff know we were going with a group of 12 and they said that would not be a problem. In an hour our group received water and a drink order placed but never got it. The same server continued to wait on other tables, make drinks for other tables and made no effort or hurry to make ours or come back to take our order. In addition, the bartender continued to walk around and socialize rather than makes drinks. We even wrote down our whole order and patiently waited for her to come back to make it easy for her. This is the second that we have attempted to come to your establishment with the same results.“

“Bears fans need to come and watch a game“

“darts, drinks, food and fun“

“The people are fantastic! I went for lunch while I waited for the plane, they were busy, and I was worried I might not have time to eat. The kitchen cranked it out, I was so impressed!“

“What a fun place! Next time we will try a escape room. Need more bathrooms. Had a great time!“

“Best music,wanted a bar that made u feel in ur 20's again. and wanna just dance lol,yet without too many people and it's small,but very nice abdyet has everything a big bar would have for entertainment:great music,pool tables,pinball machines,darts,etc!( Plus I have to mention the nice staff,as well as super friendly people who end up conversing with!)“

“Very amazing family night tonight! We had a family of 9 and they got us in to eat right away, great food, great prices, fun for all! Bowling prices were also very reasonable! Will be back soon! Thank you to the amazing team!“

“Nice, local crowd with pool tables, dart boards, and my favorite, the punching bag machine. Local bands and djs and even a weekly karaoke night helps to spice up the music selection. Free pool day and drink specials help to keep the cost of your partying low.“

“My husband and I stopped by when we heard live music and we had such a fun time! It was pretty quiet for a Friday night (we also left before 9 pm), but we loved the intimate atmosphere and being able to interact with the band, who were very talented and friendly. Our bartender was warm and attentive and ensured we were taken care of. Their sangria mocktail was SUPER yummy and I was impressed at their mocktail selection. Excited to come back some time and try their food- the chicken strips look phenomenal!“

“Ordered the big bacon cheesburger special for lunch carryout after reading some reviews on the burgers. I must say i was impressed, the meat was cooked to order, the bun was grilled and the veggies on the buger made every bite delectable. Will be back for sure!“

“Stopped in for the first time today. I’m happy to have a good breakfast place on Ingersoll. The food was good and staff was super nice. Will be back for sure.“

“I'm biased about Highland Park Lutheran Church. Basically, my mother is the pastor of the church. Though I will say is you're looking for a welcoming place to find God, then you definitely will. Also, the congregation is very welcoming as well. DO COME AND SEE WHAT A GREAT PLACE OF WORSHIP THAT YOU'LL FIND WITH Highland Park.“

“I've been here before, but gotta admit, it was several years ago! I should have come here more often!! A friend (a regular here) and I split a Monte Cristo sandwich--my first one ever!! And I would definitely order that again. We also shared some dumplings and eggrolls!! Everything was delicious!! I'll be back soon!!“

“The Punching Pandas ROCK! From the energy, to the song selection - to the horn section- these guys bring it! They are guaranteed make every show they play one big party. Once again- THEY ROCK! 🤘😎“

“The best food I have had at any Dave and Buster’s hands down! Really was impressed! My husband really liked the spicy smash burger! All the staff we dealt with were very nice. My only complaint is when my husband made the table reservation, we put for special occasion- birthday. And there wasn’t anything for that. Our child still had a great time but it would have been nice if the table had some decorations or a balloon or even if he got a little dessert. And on that day there was an event so parking was a problem even though there is plenty of space for just Dave and Busters. But other than that we had a pleasant experience.“

“The family stopped for lunch because they have jambalaya in the name on some of their locations and my wife is a huge gumbo fan. The food was very good. I like the jalapeno creamed corn. My wife enjoyed the gumbo. The corn muffins were very sweet and we both wished it'd been a corn bread, instead of muffin. The pulled pork was very good but they have Alabama white sauce so of course it's going to be good with that. The staff was nice. There is a tiny free lot behind the building that may fill up quickly, depending on the day's events.“

“We arrived in Des Moines late and wanted a quick bite to eat and cocktails. The burger was delicious. The beers were cold We got to watch a lot of different sport events on their tvs. Our waitress was awesome and told us about a great cookie place to get dessert. Definitely would go back next time we go to Des Moines“

“Wife and I came in late. Sever Jackson was an absolute pleasure and was great. Listened to all our questions and was pleasant the whole meal. Will definitely return and will ask for his section. Food was good. Everything was as we ordered it.“
