Since 1996, South Union Bread Café has been serving hungry diners in the heart of Des Moines. What began as an outlet to showcase Chef George Formaro’s artisan South Union Bakery breads has turned into a downtown institution. Stop by our lively lunchtime café and try our famous sandwiches, fresh salads and made-from-scratch soups. South Union Bread Café also offers great catering solutions for casual entertaining. Think of us for hassle-free party sandwiches, meat and cheese platters, house-made sides, desserts and more!
