Love coming here with my partner or friends, weekends are great for high energy dance vibes and weekdays are for a bit more relaxed experience! Staff is always wonderful and the place is cute and clean!
A group of 4 of us went to bellhop around 11pm. We stayed, drank and spent loads of money there all night. One of the individuals in the friend group was pregnant and only drinking Pepsi. When it was minutes from closing time, their bouncer/buss boy came around just as our pregnant friend was getting up to go use the restroom before we left. This employee said the bathroom is closed and then insulted her by saying she was drinking while pregnant. When she rightfully put him in his place and told him to watch his mouth on what he doesn't know, not even an apology, he just doubled down.
without this experience, the night was great. However, since this happened, I will not be returning to Bellhop. Maybe consider hiring security with some emotional maturity
Our bartender Fabio was very fabulous and friendly. Seriously one of the very reasons I consider this bar.
Kathy is the best bartender I’ve seen in Des Moines since Ashley Norland. Highly recommend this place for a different vibe

At first, we thought this place had potential. I ordered a double shot of Patrón that tasted suspiciously like José.. first red flag. Then my friend stood at the bar for 10 minutes trying to order while the bartender blatantly ignored her, serving everyone else around her. Weird energy. We came in excited, ready to stay all night and tip big, but the vibe was off. Ended up heading across the street instead and had the best night there. Save yourself the trouble! This place is all attitude, no hospitality. Very disappointing.

Went on a Saturday night and the drinks and service was fine but the music was ungodly loud. And I enjoy good loud music but like holy cow guys it was painfully loud.. Definitely don't need that volume in a space like that.

My favorite bar in the Des Moines area! They have the best unique drinks and even better atmosphere. When you’re there see Katie and Trent as they’re the best bartenders in the city!!

No where else my friends and I would rather be on a weekend night in DSM! We always have so much fun, and all services are top notch, from the drinks, to the music, to the company.. especially bartenders Katie & Trent! 🤍 Also, how can you not love the Photo Booth!

My absolute FAVORITE place to bring friends on the weekends. Atmosphere is amazing and music is typically very good too. Drinks are amazing but the hospitality and service is top notch. Special S/O to Trent, Troy, and Katie :)
