"We were next door and the locals suggested “that place next door “ for really good food. Locals know! They were not kidding we had top three cold apps. See picture. The smoked salmon was amazing. All three absolutely delicious We opted for the Purveyor sandwich, but we opted for focaccia bread, really outstanding, everything is ridiculously delicious and fresh. Outstanding. The waiter? Owner knows the menu inside and out, made very good suggestions, and very personable. That little bit of heaven with the wonderful Daisy chain coffees the fun store that is attached to the daisy chain coffee, we spent much of our Sunday here."

"What a find! Authentic Spanish tapas, empanadas, and fritos, served with excellent Italian and Spanish wines, in a chic industrial atmosphere, topped off with friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable service. Purveyor is my new favorite place in Des Moines! UPDATE: Second visit, maybe even better! New bartender Carlos is a gem - gave my Spanish vermouth glass a gin wash for an authentic feel, super knowledgeable on the wine selection. The menu is excellent, so many choices, you'll never have the same small plate twice (unless you want to!). My only regret is that I don't live close enough to be a regular here. Highly recommend!"

"What a great feel this place has! It’s like a trip abroad in the middle of the East Village of Iowa. Spanish tapas and European flair throughout the menu. The spinach ricotta empanadas was delicious, as was the gambas al ajillo (slightly spicy, amazing garlic flavor), eggplant, scallop/shrimp cazuela was to die for, order extra bread to sop up the sauce. Had a new to me N/A option in their offering of Danish Sparkling Tea, the Bla flavor was not blah at all, definitely give it a try for something new and unique."

"This little place has wonderful charcuterie boards. The staff are friendly and helpful. Anything I've ordered here has been very good."

"Great mix of fun food and a fantastic wine selection. We stopped in Sunday while biking Des Moines. It’s nice to have an option other than microbreweries. Love the vibe and the people working here are amazing."
