Gateway Market and Cafe

Gateway Market and Cafe incorporates the same philosophy as the grocery store itself. It uses fresh, and sometimes local, ingredients in innovative dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Specialties are the house ramen noodles and sandwiches on South Union bread (baked on site). Try the wines and microbrews during happy hour at Gateway for just $2. A salad bar and takeout items, including sushi, are also available in the market.

Worth Noting
The Market Cafe serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Catering and box lunches offers the same quality and passion found in the cafe and market.
Food specialties: Try signature dishes such as the Gateway omelet or house ramen. Every sandwich is made with South Union artisan bread, baked fresh on site. Order for carryout if you need to get back to the office or rush home.

When people come from out of town, I love to pick spots that really showcase Des Moines, and tell visitors we arent just some small town.
