Reviews for The Royal Mile in Des Moines, IA
I brought my 73 year old mother to the Iowa state fair for her birthday (8/13/49). We skimmed the web and found this place. We... both thought EVERYTHING was great. Drinks, service, ambiance... Everything. We got drinks, appetizers and dinners. No picturesof drinks, and the poutine was captured after we tore into it. She got the chicken pot pie, me fish and chips, starters, Reubenegg rolls and poutine. Go there, tip good... Unless your service is less than mine. And support small business! Thanks forreading.

Good service and fun atmosphere. I didn't know what I wanted to drink, and the bartender made me a creation with raspberry vodka... and blueberry red bull (I told him I needed caffeine!) and he threw down some glitter in the drink too. I was with twogirlfriends and we each ordered some appetizers and they were all great! I had the fried pickles and they were fabulous (spearcut like fries), and one friend got the banger bites - really tasty with some mustard dipping sauces Our other friend got thechicken tenders and I loved the crunch on them and they have unique sauces for those as well- she had gotten some kind of bbqpineapple sauce for them? Overall great! Glad we stopped there on our way to a show! (Picture posted is my whimsical "unicorn"drink!) Read more
My wife & I had a great experience here. It's definitely an English Pub with that type of food but they also have American Food... for the less adventurous. I got Scotch Eggs, Banger Bites, & Shepherd's Pie while my wife got the Turkey Club with steak fries &Mozzarella Sticks. It was all fantastic! Our server was incredibly friendly & very helpful which was appreciated since this wasour first time here. They had a great pub atmosphere & also a few TV's scattered around to be able to catch the game. We'lldefinitely be going back! Read more
Good food, but don't go during peak hours, it's a smaller restaurant and gets a little crowded. Nice adult beverage selection. ... Service was fairly quick, and it's walking distance from downtown hotels. Read more
Recommended by a stranger and boy did it not disappoint. Food was insanely good service was top notch. Next time I?m in town, I... will be back. Thank you for the great meal and service. Read more
Great spot to catch a Premier league soccer game. Friendly staff, great vibe. I spent a week in Ireland last month and this... place feels very similar to an Irish pub. Brunch food was okay. The Benedict was smothered in hollandaise...be sure to ask forit on the side. Kids menu had relatively small serving sizes so be prepared to order a couple extra sides. 5 stars forambiance, staff friendliness, drink selections, and soccer 3 stars for food Read more
Cool combination of a bar and restaurant. We went late after a concert and they only had the Late Night Menu but still was very... good. I love the variety of appetizers that you don't always find in a bar. They have a wide selection of beers, whiskey andother drinks. Very nice service and experience. I would definitely come back.

The Royal Mile has a great atmosphere inside and out in the alley. We enjoyed the alley with friends! It has shade and plenty of... space. So if you don't like tight quarters the alley is a much better. They have a VERY diverse beer menu and a changing set ofmixed drinks, but kinda limited. Loads of whiskey options as well. The food was ON POINT! I enjoyed the chicken pot pie that wascooked perfectly and was so delicious on a cool October evening. The prices were very reasonable and you received good portionsfor your money. My friend had "The Earl" a club sandwich with a British spin and loved it! If you're looking for a differentspin on the regular sports bars, stop in to the Royal Mile! Read more
