Ranked as one of the best farmers' markets in the US, heading to the market is a classic Saturday activity in Des Moines. The 165+ vendors offer something for everyone and since it's only three blocks from the Surety, you'll have plenty of time to check it out before the wedding!
Although Des Moines is not a large city, it has one of the highest restaurant-per-capita rates in the US. Highlighted here are some of our downtown favorites: Centro, Malo, St Kilda, Proof, Bubba, Fong's Pizza (don't miss the Crab Rangoon pizza), and Americana.
