This is a total hidden gem in Des Moines. We stumbled in late one night and were totally impressed by the high-quality bites. They have wonderful wine and a friendly atmosphere. The afternoon sun makes it a cozy place to spend happy hour. It's easy to make friends at the bar. Good choices for gluten free options as well.

Purveyor is my new favorite wine and tapas joint. We walked in for the empanadas, and quickly became regulars. Don’t sleep on the Friday night paella- it’s fantastic! The stuffed mushrooms are awesome too. Eva and Thomas are very knowledgeable and friendly and have suggested some great wines we wouldn’t have tried otherwise. It’s an intimate setting, great for date night. Definitely make reservations if you’re bringing a group.

We always take out-of-town friends here for the paella and house sangria, and it always gets rave reviews. The owner is so kind and knowledgeable, every single time, the food is always delicious, the vibes always immaculate.

What a find! Authentic Spanish tapas, empanadas, and fritos, served with excellent Italian and Spanish wines, in a chic industrial atmosphere, topped off with friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable service. Purveyor is my new favorite place in Des Moines!
UPDATE: Second visit, maybe even better! New bartender Carlos is a gem - gave my Spanish vermouth glass a gin wash for an authentic feel, super knowledgeable on the wine selection. The menu is excellent, so many choices, you'll never have the same small plate twice (unless you want to!). My only regret is that I don't live close enough to be a regular here. Highly recommend!

We were next door and the locals suggested “that place next door “ for really good food. Locals know!

They were not kidding we had top three cold apps. See picture. The smoked salmon was amazing. All three absolutely delicious

We opted for the Purveyor sandwich, but we opted for focaccia bread, really outstanding, everything is ridiculously delicious and fresh. Outstanding. The waiter? Owner knows the menu inside and out, made very good suggestions, and very personable.

That little bit of heaven with the wonderful Daisy chain coffees the fun store that is attached to the daisy chain coffee, we spent much of our Sunday here.
