The sandwiches are good and the price is right. The ice cream is second to none and they make cones, shakes, malts and sundaes too! Stop by and let Kim and Pam take care of you.

A nice mom-and-pop shop that serves delicious and cheap doughnuts. Their honeydew doughnuts are amazing. With a light and airy texture and a sweet taste that lingers. All for only a buck! Plus the staff is super friendly and helpful.

They are some of the best donuts in town. It was a rough time when Donut King shutdown but now they are back. Make sure you get there early as they often sell out of donuts.

Fun place to go like stepping back in time . Great ice cream the old ice cream sodas are really good.

This adorable little spot has such wonderful charm and delicious food. The hostesses bring incredible energy and from the first time we went we knew this would be a regular spot. It quickly has become a weekly tradition and we have loved going every week since!

Bauder's is a FANTASTIC experience! It is beautifully decorated, almost like it is frozen in time. I don't think I've ever seen a pharmacy and a restaurant rolled into one.We were greeted with huge smiles and fantastic service. Our reuben sandwich was excellent, and we were able to get one half of the sandwich with sauerkraut and the other half without. Great donuts, too!Please give Bauder's a visit if you are in the area, and manage to catch them while they're open. Highly recommend!

Very friendly people and wonderful customer service!Wish the donuts were as good. They looked perfect but were a bit bland. Probably needed to change the oil in the fryer.Didn’t try any ice cream (too early).

very nice staff ! donuts were still soft and smelled amazing !!

Wonderful little soda shop, like stepping back in time. Prices are very reasonable. Light lunch with soda, peppermint bar (big enough for two adults) and a scoop of fresh peach ice cream, all for $13 plus change, add on a top of course! Small menu of old favorite sandwiches and large selection of ice cream favorites. Do not over look this delightful place while visiting Des Moines!

A group of our coworkers headed to Bauder’s for a late lunch and treat. We had never been before. The staff was so friendly. We had never had one of their peppermint patties so she cut one into six pieces so we could try without even asking. Shakes and malts were delicious and the grilled cheese and Rueben’s we got were also yummy. Can’t wait to go back to treats this summer!
