31 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Des Moines

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

“It's a super cute coffee shop, tucked in the middle of the block. The vibe inside was light, airy, and welcoming. I love that they are all about being eco friendly! Instead of paper cups, you get your coffee in cute glass jars. The staff were very friendly and helpful. And the best part was the amazing coffee and pastries. My breakfast latte was delicious. The cinnamon crown had bits of apple pieces and was so gooey and delicious. This is a great place to stop.“

“Betsy is always the best barista and very friendly with me and my dog Tela and I always love talking with her and she makes the best mocha ever!“

“Good beer and food, but over priced, especially with added fees.“

“The ice cream here is absolutely delicious! I was also honored to meet the owner and some of the staff while I was working at a local haunted house and they were so much fun to be around! I will always love this place!“

“The staff are always super friendly and kind!“

“Fun gathering place with great summer treats!“

“This is a destination Brewery. There were 39 beers on tap when i was there, and what I had had the body and subtlety of the best European beers. They do have flights (generous pours of 5 beers, but if your idea of good beer runs to the light and conventional, it would be best to stick with ordering from the rather daunting list, which is arranged by heaviness. The staff is very friendly and helpful in picking out you might like. It was crowded with families and groups of young people the Sunday afternoon I was there, but the parking lot is large. It is located on the edge of the extensive park system that surrounds the Racoon and Des Moines rivers, ahd one of the main biking paths goes right up to the building. Too bad they don't serve food.“

“Wow.... soooooo good. First time eating here and will definitely return. I order the 2 meat, 2 sides. Turkey strips, catfish, green beans w/ potatoes, and jalapeño corn. It was all pretty good, but the catfish takes the trophy!!! Jalapeño corn, also amazing!!!!“

“3/1/25 I ordered delivery My order was grilled chicken sandwich on sourdough bread with fries. The sandwich was very good and lots of great flavor. Herb fries were good too. I also, ordered the pretzel Bread Pudding, it was terrible dry and hard even with the carmel sauce. Bad choice.

“This is one of the best happy hours that I’ve been to - I highly recommend it!“

“The food is always great. The only reason why service is a 3 star actually only because there was only one person in the back of house making food and taking orders. She was just extremely busy when my wife and I came to get our order. She was super nice and apologetic. I don't hold the lateness in our order against her whatsoever.“

“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.“

“As far as fast food places good, this one is incredibly well run. I've ordered from here no less than 50 times (Don't judge me!) over the past year and my order has never been wrong. Kudos to the workers in this location, they have a vibe going in the back and its noticeable!“

“Food was good as one would expect from a Subway. First Subway that i have seen with a drive thru. We had placed an order through an app and pulled into the drive thru lane to do pickup. However, we sat in the drive thru lane at the order area for a minute or two and were not acknowledged, so ended up parking and walking inside to get our sandwhiches. Staff inside acknowledged me right away, and had our meal prepared on time.“
