The Comic Book Themed Restaurant In Iowa That Will Bring Out Your Inner Fan

Breakfast in Des Moines is never hard to find - the city does love its bacon, eggs, and waffles! It seems like each new place is trying to one-up the last with ever more spectacular breakfast creations - and one place may have the edge. The Breakfast Club in Des Moines is getting attention not just for its spectacular food, but for its incredible decor. It's the only comic book-themed restaurant in Iowa - but there isn't a superhero in sight! Rather, the design at The Breakfast Club is heavily inspired by the vintage era of pop art - which was heavily influenced by comics in the 1940s to the 1960s. The walls and even some of the cups are adorned with vintage comic book and pop art, paying tribute to classic romance and comedy comics of the era. Are you ready to turn the clock back for a memorable kick-off to your day?

Hidden in a standard-looking building, The Breakfast Club is kind of the Clark Kent of breakfast joints!

The second you step inside, you'll be hit by the retro comic-book vibe, exuding bright colors and classic drawings from every corner.

The walls are covered with pop art that looks a lot like comic book panels - some modern, some original.

The theme even extends to the coffee mugs, which have comic panels printed on them. As you can see, the restaurant loves its cocktail program!

Of course, you're here for the food, and it doesn't disappoint. The indulgent pancakes and waffles come with an incredible array of toppings.

The chicken and waffles is packed with flavor and given a sweet-and-savory twist.

It's brunch, so we need some lunch favorites, as well! Somehow, the hash browns make a cheeseburger taste even better.

And don't forget the cocktails! A breakfast margarita flight is just the ticket to get your day off to an exciting start.
