Flavors to Savor Here and at Home
Marina Mercantile beautifully blends the charm of an old-school neighborhood market with a modern café's vibrance. It stands out not just as a place to find pantry staples and dinner ingredients, but as a cozy nook where you can savor a meal or relish a cup of coffee. Any foodie worth their salt will love browsing the selections, sampling their menu, and savoring everything on offer here.
A Taste of the World in Des Moines
Marina Mercantile is more than just food: it's a cultural experience. The establishment is the brainchild of locals Brenda Sutherland and Richard Mockler, who, inspired by their travels in Spain and Portugal, aimed to create a space that serves as a communal hub. Whether you're in for a perfect cup of coffee, traditional afternoon tea, a glass of satisfying wine, or to explore the plethora of specialty cheeses, charcuterie, and artisanal chocolates, Marina Mercantile promises a unique encounter with each visit.
Why Marina Mercantile Stands Out
- Food and Drink: From soups, salads, and sandwiches to meat and cheese plates, and rotating specials, the food offerings are as varied as they are delicious. Their wine and beer selection is carefully curated to complement the dining experience.
- Events and Learning: Marina Mercantile is also known for its engaging events, including musical performances and lecture events, alongside classes for artists, makers, and cake decorators.
- A Curated Selection of Goods: The mercantile aspect of Marina Mercantile offers an assortment of artisinal supplies perfect for creating an impromptu feast or picking up unusual gifts. The inventory ranges from specialty foods and imports to quirky home decor items.
Marina Mercantile in Des Moines, WA, is more than a marketplace; it's a destination where the community gathers to share, learn, and discover. Whether you're drawn by the food, the drinks, the events, or the unique shopping experience, Marina Mercantile invites you to uncover something unexpected and delightful. It's a testament to the vibrant spirit of Des Moines and a must-visit for anyone who loves food.
