Des Moines’s Best Restaurants, According to 2020 Campaign Operatives | Eater

"El Bait Shop claims to have the world’s largest selection of American craft beers on tap. With 262 lines running, it’s difficult to argue with them, though their sister establishment The High Life Lounge is just next door if the Champagne of beers is more your speed. The elevated bar menu has quite a few gems on it, but the bacon wrapped tater tots, spam egg and cheese sandwich, and nachos are must-haves. Swing by late at night and you’ll see it crawling with photojournalists and campaign staff decompressing after a town hall or rally." - Gary He
