Wellman's Pub
(Dan Hodges/Special to Juice)
Wellman's has been a fixture on Ingersoll for more than 25 years. Owner Tom Baldwin (who owns spots like Crush and Drink) purchased the bar last year, but Wellman's continued on without any major changes, remaining a laid-back neighborhood hangout. Wellman's has a large patio with an outdoor bar (open Friday and Saturday) and an outdoor big screen (weather permitting).

My Favorite Bar and Grills

While I love so many different types of food, there are times when good old bar food really hits the spot. Whether Im just popping in for lunch, meeting friends for drinks, or watching a game-these are some of my favorite bar and grill spots.

Im ready for some patios!

Is it summer yet? Spring is so unpredictable in Iowa, an the thought of a cold beer and some appetizers on one of the great patios around Des Moines is helping me make it through the chilly spring!

The Perfect Ingersoll Bar Crawl

Ive spent many years dedicating my bar time to Ingersoll Avenue. My friends and I have branched out a bit, but Ingersoll will always have a special place in my heart-and make for one great night full of eccletic bar fun.
