Kelly's Little Nipper - Des Moines

Went in to buy one of their local favorites....the Guinea Grinder. Bar has been through quite a few owners over the last 12 or so years. The sandwich they make now is no longer a town favorite in my opinion. This is the 2nd one I've purchased again in thelast year there abouts. I though the other was just a bad night....nope, there all gone I guess.

Incredible food, especially the little brownies that they brought out at the end. The owner and waitstaff were really friendly and made us feel welcome. I had the ?nipper snapper? burger, which was really good and my partner had the 1 pound sausagesandwich. Neither of us are big drinkers, but it didn?t matter because the food was such good quality. We had a great time!

Staff and patrons were super friendly. Come hungry because the burgers are big! Wait time was short compared to most which was shocking since it was packed. Dinner even came with a mini brownie dessert. Live music was awesome! Absolutely an awesome placeoff the beaten path.

The daily specials are great! Jeff and his staff are top-notch. If you go away, it's your own fault.Food: 5/5

Somebody told me about this place. I got a Lyft and played pool with friendly older guys. Bartenders were pleasant. Highly recommend if you’re looking for pool opponents and good people.
