Lighthouse Lounge - Des Moines
Lighthouse Lounge
Description
The Lighthouse Lounge blends dive-bar charm with polished service—friendly bartenders, strong drinks, crispy comfort food and standout seafood—set against a Des Moines Marina backdrop. Big screens, country music, live bands and Friday karaoke create lively nights; daytime visits feel quieter and more relaxed. Recent renovations freshen the space, though weekends can get cramped and last call is often around 1 a.m. Ideal for locals, sports fans and music lovers seeking an easygoing, convivial spot.

They are still working through renovations, but the food and drinks are on point! Great staff working hard to make everyone have a great time. Love the new music nights and karaoke on Fridays. Love the Chicken and Waffles!
Great place! Love the lighthouse decor and ambiance. Bartenders/waitstaff were friendly, diligent, cheerful and sweet, and took care of everyone. There were customers who came in from across the street after being dissatisfied with the service over there. They appreciated the friendly professional service at the Lighthouse in contrast. I live quite a ways north and typically wouldn't be in that area to experience this place, but my new band was hired to play there. We got to watch the Sounders win the cup, right before we took the stage-nice set up for bands, btw. I ran into a customer who knew a relative who lives in the area. I would recommend this charming spot to anyone looking for an enjoyable evening, watch sports on the giant screen, Karaoke, jam night, or live music!
I always have a great time here! It's a lovely place with friendly staff. I ordered a Swiss cheese mushroom burger with fries, and it was delicious and full of flavor. I paired it with a Mac Jacks beer, which was a perfect match. And on my latest visit, I enjoyed an amazing Bloody Mary!
