47 Best Bars near Apple Valley

“Great experience overall. Food is appropriately priced, and everyone is nice.

During one of my visits, they accidentally dropped my order from my party's queue, but they immediately recognized the mistake, apologized sincerely, and even gave me my meal for free without me asking.“

“Very good food, the chef is always trying something new which is refreshing instead of having the same items. They prevent their menu from getting stale like some many others. Stacey is amazing, not only a great bartender but she does so much more for Celts. The rest of the staff are really good too. Highly recommend“

“I love coming to Cowboy Jacks in Apple Valley! The staff is amazing and I love the food and happy hour specials. I also want to give a shout out to one of the managers, Calvin who intervened when he saw a man at the bar harassing me. I didn’t even have to ask him, but he could tell I was uncomfortable and asked the man to leave. It is so refreshing to go to a bar where the staff truly cares about the well-being of their customers! Great work to this whole team! I will most definitely be back!! ?“

“Just finished dinner at the Better Half to try out the new after dark menu - 100/10 recommend! We had the ahi tuna stack, miso sea bass, and the lobster pasta (can’t remember the name) and everything was INCREDIBLE. We wanted to order pretty much everything, it was so hard to decide! I would officially consider this one of the best menus south of the River - can’t wait to come back and do another round of taste testing until we make our way through the whole menu! Shout out to Michael our server - he always goes above and beyond (I somehow always end up in his section 😂 and he is fantastic!)“

“Came to McHugh's Public House recently to catch up with a friend. The staff was extremely kind, helpful, and attentive, and the restaurant, in spite of being pretty busy on a weekday evening, was laid out in a way that my friend and I could have a great conversation without having to shout. We kept things simple with the food and drinks, and everything we had was enjoyable. Will likely be back in the future if I'm in the area.“

She helped us celebrate with a surprise photo and ice cream sweet:) She went above to help our experience be wonderful! We loved the valet option and enjoyed our first time at the Lexington! 🥰“

“today was my first day visiting this location and it will not be my last. The food was spectacular and the service was outstanding. The atmosphere was very welcoming. I can’t believe it took me so long to find this beautiful gem. I will definitely be returning soon.“

“You know, this place really punches above it's weight. The food and atmosphere really isn't incredible in any sense but the restaurant is clean, the food arrives quickly and accurately, and the sure maybe the menu variety is pretty limited but everything arrived hot and was tasty. Also our waiter was the best dude. Ended up being a very fun/positive experience.“

“I love coming to this location when I fly out of the Minneapolis airport. The tomato soup is great. It actually is one of the best I have ever had. I also really enjoy having a mimosa before I board the plane. They make wonderful mimosas and also they make great omelettes if you’re flying out in the morning. Caleb Was very friendly and kind. He has a great upbeat personality.“

“food was amazing and the staff is super friendly“

“Very welcoming atmosphere, lovely staff. my lettuce wraps were probably the best I've had and my daughter's ice cream Sunday was huge! We went for bingo and enjoyed our time there, definitely will return! Nice bathrooms, very handicapped accessible.“

“Come give Granite City a try! Great atmosphere, service, and food! 🍻“

“Great food always however St Patrick’s Day corn beef and cabbage was the best we’ve ever have. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned just right. Cocktails and wine are awesome. Service is outstanding it always is. Well done. Beautiful!“

“Please visit “Eat Beat Chronicles” Facebook page for our latest adventure. 🙂“

“Fantastic good, great service and atmosphere!“

“The Old Minneapolis cocktail is a nice, sweet version of an old fashioned.
Cheese curds are lightly battered and lightly fried. Perfectly melted cheese inside. Very nicely done.
Walleye had good flavor with a nice butter sauce.
Waitress Ashley took great care of me.“

“FUN place w/good food & drinks 😜🎉🍔🍟🍕🍻“

“The environment was very calming, dim with an intimate ambiance. We ordered two items one being the porterhouse steak which was exceptional! Cooked and seasoned to perfection it was definitely one of the best steaks I've had in years. The street corn and broccolini were bursting with flavor and the single portions were more than enough to share. The salmon however was not as flavorful, more bland and the topping was a bit much for an advent salmon eater. Overall the experience at Pittsburgh was top-tier and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to family and friends.“

“Always good service & good food!“

“Efrain provided excellent service and recommendations! We will definitely come back again!“

“I’ve already written about how good it is.“

“Great Happy Hour! Food is always good.“

“We come here often, the food is great as well as the service. Service can be a little slow when it gets busy but that’s to be expected anywhere. All the food we’ve had has been very good and the margaritas are tasty and on the strong side!“

“If you were looking for a fun cocktail, an excellent martini or old-fashioned with a light appetizer this is your place. The area is absolutely beautiful and the Omni is nice. But the place was horribly understaffed. We sat at the couch area with little expectations and went to the bar for our drinks. Ordered some food and it was very hard getting even napkins or plates, dirty dishes, just sat there. For the price you pay ($15 a drink , $20 for wings) you need to have more staff on a Sunday game day .“

“The Charcuterie boards ordered on-line were delicious and wonderful! They contacted me as I had asked for all boards and no plastic trays. I appreciated the effort to accommodate my request. Thank you“

“Ate here for the first time a couple of weeks ago and the food was amazing. We had multiple apps, burgers, and a flatbread and it was all delicious. Bar food but high quality. Cocktails were also delicious and a great tap selection. We'll definitely go back.“

“Stoped in had a beer and burger burger and it was great it was called The Galway*
Topped with bleu cheese crumble, bacon, crispy onion straws, buffalo, and garlic parmesan sauce
The onion straws were nice and crisp enough for me to eat even though im not a huge fan of onions they used real blue crumbles which added a nice creamy Ness the one thing I also had a vanilla apple cider that was ok one thing to note wish we had know its was bingo got kind of crazy with the kids running around but otherwise it was nice“

“I would like to the Babes staff for another great experience in food and entertainment. I had great time with friends as always. I will be back soon to enjoy a great burger and a beer with the friendly staff of Babes. Thanks“

“Great happy hour prices!!!“

“Visited 01MAY2023 for lunch. There was only one waitress working who also served as hostess so it took a while for my party of three to get seated. When we did get seated the hostess/waitress told us that we could sit anywhere.
I ordered the cowboy club sandwich and tater tots which didn't take too long to arrive. The club sandwich was good but the tater tots were a bit cold.
Visited again 17NOV2025 for dinner. The service was excellent. Plenty of staffing with friendly staff.
Unfortunately, my meal was disappointing. I ordered the small cowboy cookout platter. My 3 meat selections were pork ribs, beef brisket, and chicken wings. The ribs and brisket came with sauce on them. I'm not a fan of the sauce and should've ordered it on the side. All 3 meats were dry. The positive is there was plenty of meat for $22, unfortunately none of it tasted good. The dinner came with baked beans and coleslaw which were actually good. You get a 3rd side with this platter so you better have an appetite if you're eating alone.“

“Always friendly and helpful. I came from Wisconsin and would like to see the bakery dept add crullers Delicious. As HyVee moves into WI you will find customers expect to be able to purchase. Also put a lot more apples into your Apple fritters. I stopped buying but I saw two slices sticking out and thought a would try again. Nope. All dough“

“Awesome and very friendly staff“

“We had an amazing server Monique, at the Blaine location Sunday 12/7. In fact everyone we encountered that day was kind, helpful, and you could tell just happy to work there. Food was great, drinks were amazing. Monique at the end, really took her time as we shared a story with her and was such an impactful interaction!!!“

“Food came out hot and fast“

“Incredible place to eat sushi and sashimi especially their dinner menu is worth the one hour drive 🥲🫶🏻…I love how friendly the staff is and how clean they keep the place. a bit pricey yes but you are paying for the quality and that is well WORTH EVERY PENNY.“

“The food and drink was delicious and the Key Lime pie is the best!!! Christina was our server and was by far the best waitress we have had in a long time. She sweetly honored our special requests and checked on us the right amount of times.“

“Great food friendly service great place to take family and friends for some good eats 🔥🔥🔥🔥10/10 must try again and again ….“
