I have enjoyed all my experiences at the Cork this summer, ranging from a work get together, hanging out with some girlfriends and date night with my husband. The staff have always been helpful, kind and the owner was so nice.

Very neat place, I just moved out to des moines not to long ago. I just searched wine and this place popped up. I went alone but the staff and bar tender were so friendly and kept up a good conversation the whole time i was there.Parking: Plenty of space.

This bar opened 6 months ago and I visited it for the first time today. I was not disappointed. There is plenty of seating and large TVs and lots of wine, beer and spirits to choose from. The owners were super friendly and there was a nice crowd in there at 3:00 p.m.

Calm and peaceful and nice beverage options. There are some top shelf beer options in addition to a gazillion wines.

Very disappointing. There was a limited number of choices for wine by the glass. I paid $12 for roughly an inch of the only Sauvignon Blanc available.

Wonderful people behind the bar, including the owners. A great selection of wines and beers. Highly recommend.

A HUGE shout-out to The Cork 50131 for offering their FANTASTIC space for a Saturday morning Bridal Shower, thrown for my future daughter-in-law. Tricia and her sister were beyond helpful that entire morning, and very welcoming and accommodating to all our guests. They provided the most beautiful set-up for us to bring finger foods, and provided a delicious variety refreshing beverages. They even refreshed drinks and bussed tables while the guests visited and celebrated the Bride-to-be as she opened gifts. It was such a great atmosphere for a beautiful celebration. Thank you! You are definitely a class act. I highly recommend!

Really cute and modern space and vine! Had a wine flight which was really good! Service was good, too! Only reason 3 stars is because the food was not so great. The charcuterie board meats were a little old/gray looking. There wasn't that much cheese or variety of cheeses. No explanation of what was on the board, and no sauces, jams, or spreads to go with it. We also got the prosciutto Flatbread and this was a little dry and lacking flavor, too. For the price of these food items, was definitely hoping for a little more taste/quality. Would definitely cl go back just for the wine, though!

Great place!

Great place to stop in for wines while catching a game on one of their many TVs. Very cool unique wine bar with excellent acoustics.

Beth Willem

Loved it! Friendly owners, fantastic selection of wine, spirits and Iowa beers. Great ambiance also. Although we didn't try any of the food, the offerings sounded yummy.

Vaughn Christensen

The best wine bar in the Des Moines metro. Plenty of seating areas and lots of TVs so we can enjoy wine and sports!
