Park Avenue Pub, Des Moines IA

Looking for a dive? Look no farther than your corner Park Avenue Pub. Some of my best memories with friends have been made here. Don't go with any expectations and you won't be disappointed.

Good old fashioned neighborhood bar. Vintage beer signs really brought me to yesterday year. Of course beer was cold and service was pleasant.

A great place to go and hang out with friends. They have great food and awesome bartenders!

Slow service, came in with a few friends. Made eye contact with server, apparently she was to preoccupied with continuing the conversation with her friends. Didn’t approach our table what so ever, we waited well over 15 mins. We decided to leave, as we got up she still did not come to serve us. Instead she looked past us and continued her conversation. We ended up leaving. I’d give this place 0 stars if i could. Will never recommend this place and will tell all friends and families to steer clear. Worst restaurant ever.

I have been here 3 times in the last month specifically to get food!
For get about it! The 1st time I asked "is the kitchen open? " (NO) The second time I walked in & couldn't even ask about t the kitchen or order a beer, I just left. (Not that they where busy) Third time (tonight) we ordered drinks, then ordered food a short time later, inquired about our order and was told they hadn't started it because he was too busy. I've been going here a long time! Your not too busy, your just lazy!

Once every blue moon opinion is always the same good service great smelling food this time I didn't have any didn't have time and easy atmosphere I like it a lot and beer was ice cold can

Was there last night & the bartender working was very rude not sure I've ever had someone treat my friends & I so poorly ever all the times we've been out drinking!

Park Avenue Pub is always a great time! They have Golden Tee, Silver Strike Bowling, poker machines and great bartenders! Always a great batch of local company to hang out with and grab a drink. Don’t miss out on this local gem next time your in Des Moines!

Always a great neighborhood bar. Definitely a hole in the wall but great food, friendly people, and great service. Stop by if you get some time and enjoy the company!
