Although reservations are accepted, they are almost never necessary at this Des Moines institution.
Raccoon River Brewing Company features sandwiches and hearty entrees along with fresh beer brewed on the premises at reasonable prices with friendly service. The pasta dishes and "house specialties" for dinner--tuna, salmon, etc. are around $15-16. For lunch, pasta dishes and sandwiches are under $10 each.
Late at night, it is a popular gathering spot (especially Tuesday night for salsa dancing and Friday and Saturday nights for live music) but for dinner or lunch it's a good place to take the entire family for a good meal.
The location--10th & Mulberry downtown--ensures plenty of street metered parking or lot parking (for a fee) nearby.
