Des Moines is such a great city for foodies – we have everything from apocalyptic burgers to a boulevard of culinary dreams. Recently, the famous Cheese Shop opened up a restaurant right in the heart of the city, where Iowans can gather to enjoy drinks, small plates and bar bites any time they’re feeling like treating themselves to a delightful dining experience.

The Cheese Bar is the newest spot for turophiles (cheese lovers!) in the metro area.
