Best outdoor bars/dining in West Des Moines?

[sultanofsuede]

We have a large group attending an event in West Des Moines on Saturday and hoping to find a cool place for kids and parents to grab a bite for dinner. We have a mix that includes kids that are too young to be vaccinated and some parents would like to be outside. Anywhere that comes to mind? Ideally a few tv’s with football on, fire pits or lamps would be a plus. Doesn’t have to be a brand new hot spot, but there are about 12 of us. Thank!

El Rodeo has outside dining, but no tvs or anything outside. Pretty sure The Other Place has outside seating, doubt they have TVs outside though. Not sure on that.

Wellman’s (near Jordan Creek Mall) has rooftop dining with various heat lamps and TVs.

Thanks guys - sorry, I meant this for the OT board. That Wellman’s place might do the trick.

Smash park if you have kids and don’t care much about quality of food. Kids can play games and stay out of your hair, it’s big, outdoor too, and plenty of beer and TVs.
