“I’ve been a regular here for years until I moved to another city but I still work in Grimes and I got my co workers food today from here. The bartender was super nice on the phone and in person. When we got the food back to my office everything was perfect. The food was amazing. My boss who usually trashes anything I order if it isn’t something in his usual food places, well he absolutely loved it and said next time we ever get burgers that’s where we are going from this point on! Thanks again Uptown!“

“My family and I recently stopped at Smash Park in Des Moines on a whim for some family fun and food. The atmosphere was laid back and our kids thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor pickle ball courts and the arcade. Food, dessert and drinks were all crowd pleasers! And to go completely over the top, we left our blanket outside and Jerry answered my phone call, went outside to retrieve it from the bench where I left it, and mailed it back to me free of charge. In a world where kindness and customer support are harder and harder to come by, Jerry and Smash Park get a 10/10 from this family!!!“

“We went for steak night and my expectations were exceeded. The steak was cooked perfectly, had great flavor, and was good sized without any gristle. The baked potato and toast were good. Looking forward to going back.“
“In Johnston for work and saw the sign and thot I would give it a try. Seems like local people and very nice. Bartender was great. Will definitely come back next time in town. Thanks for the hospitality!“

“GoodSons on Beaver Ave is the quintessential neighborhood bar. Have a seat, and you're surrounded by friends. Nice rotation on the taps, including many local brews, and a plentiful selection of cocktail options. The food is a delectable selection of paninis and bar favorites. Come in, have a seat, you are welcome!!“
“The owner is an absolute saint, he is so nice and a great human being! However, the bartender Megan Hampton is honestly the worst human being I’ve ever met in my life. She was rude to me the second I walked into the bar, then she screamed at me, I went to another bar, and the bartender said Megan did the exact same thing to her and her boyfriend. She openly talks about using cocaine and other inappropriate talk around the bar. She is single-handedly ruining the reputation and good name of Poncho. If you don’t believe me, sit at the bar when Megan is working and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about.“
“A nice little bar. Great conversations. Friendly bartenders but they'll kick you out if you're trouble. Loud music on the Touchtunes / jukebox. 5 overhead flat-screen TVs. No food served but chips are available for purchase. Might even see an occasional Amishman come in and sell naked goods.. Pool table for those so inclined. Nice little place. Come on down to sit at the bar and read a book.“
“This is a fun little bar if you're headed to a concert at Val Air. It's full of regulars But we didn't feel judged as outsiders as we walked in. It's an old building with a dive bar feel But there are certain things that make it feel like someone really cares. For example the drinks like screwdrivers and greyhounds are made with fresh squeezed juice, the bartender rotates the glasses, and everyone has greeted as they walk in the door. The only downside is that it's a cash only bar and the ATM was down so we had to leave.“
“If you're looking for a fun night out, this place is a total catch! 🎤✨ The karaoke is a blast, the drinks are delicious, and the atmosphere is cozy, comfortable, and seriously gorgeous. The vibe is just right for singing your heart out, making new friends, or maybe even catching someone's eye. 😉 Best of all, the prices are incredibly affordable, so you can enjoy the night without breaking the bank. Absolutely love this place and can't wait to come back!“
“I was riding my bicycle with several friends from Johnston Town Center to Polk City. On the way back we rode over the Sailorville Dam and stopped in to the Boat House. What a fun time. The place was amazing and the free popcorn was a great surprise.“

“great food & service!“
“They've really tried to change in the last 5 years or so. They offer daily special meals like steak night (mondays) and taco night (tuesdays). The steaks are legit some of the best I've ever had. Served with very well seasoned grilled onions and mushrooms.
Always great service. Small hometown feel. Love it!
They could improve the beer and liquor offerings. Very limited and no taps.“
“5 stars for atmosphere and live music. Can consistently find live music here and drinks a very reasonably priced. If you're looking for fancy go elsewhere. If youre looking for consistent service, cold drinks and music then head on in.“

“Food was great and service was top notch!! A lot of places need training from these people!! Will definitely come again!“
“I love a good dive and this place checks all the boxes. Big TVs. Pool table. Golden tee. Cheap beer. Great deals. Wall of liquor. Slot machines. ATM. Regulars a dime a dozen, but you wouldn't trade a single one of them away. They have a roller dog machine, was not on while I was there. The bartender tolerates everyone guff and makes sure everyone's still laughing. 10/10“

“Discover a delightful haven for your sweet cravings ? Personally, I can't resist the allure of the cheesecake baklava. Planning to return soon for some exquisite Bosnian/Turkish coffee paired with a heavenly slice of cake. Wholeheartedly recommend this place!“

“The staff & the regulars are super friendly. The bartenders remember my name & what I like to drink. Sometimes I don't even have to ask. 😁 This is a great place to go hang with friends or by yourself. If you do go in by yourself, it won't be long before someone strikes up a conversation.“
“Perfect spot and community. It’s my Iowa spot...#dive bar“
“A staple for when you're in town for the Drake relays. We were a little surprised to find out that they did not put the Drake Relays slogan on the other side of the t-shirts due to the extra cost. Really? Peggy customers will gladly pay the extra few dollars for their relay souvenir.“
“😌It would be nice if they honored the Triv prizes.“
“Went tonight for steak night! Best steak I've ever had! TJ on the grill was the absolute BEST! He definitely knows what he's doing! Will definitely be back! Great food, great drinks and great atmosphere!“

“Stumbled on this place while just looking for the nearest spot for lunch, and what a happy accident! It just needs a bit more lighting/signage out front, since I almost drove right past it without noticing. But once inside, the ambiance is lovely, cozy and welcoming. I had the chicken pita and it was absolutely delicious. Service was great and the price is very reasonable for the quality. Give them a try, you won’t regret it!“
“Beautiful atmosphere a place for the community“
“Came in for a couple drinks great place with an awesome atmosphere. The bartender Tess was awesome! Greeted us walking in and never left us waiting for another round. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Driving back to Denver from Chicago, this spot was recommended by a gal at my hotel. Rolled over to the moose late on a Monday and found myself at the bar. Struck up some great conversations with the bar tender and a few locals. Really appreciated the friendly and divey atmosphere. I would definitely come back if I am in Des Moines again.“

“Came in on a Saturday for a softball break. They only had ONE worker named Devina. Well she ended up being AWESOME. She tended our table of 12 and worked her butt. Luckily she had some kind gentlemen customers that jumped behind the bar and helped her out. She made us some of the best bar pizza I’ve ever had. Was a very pleasant surprised. I would highly recommend getting her some help before you lose her!!!“
