26 Best Cocktail Bars near Apple Valley

“Celebrating dad’s birthday! Mark was our server. He was awesome! Food was amazing. Thanks for the great night!“

“Great first time experience & delicious food! My kids & I were searching for a place to have a late dinner and ended up at The Tavern. We were quickly greeted & seated, our waiter was super attentive to us, and the food was amazing! We had the walleye, juicy lucy and (grilled) chicken pasta Alfredo. Will definitely go back for a date night to try some cocktails with my husband.“

“Very clean. Staff was nice. Seat yourself, order on the QR code on the table, or go up to the bar to order. There was not a sign that said seat yourself. Water is self serve. When you order coffee, you get a cup and serve yourself.

Ordering was easy we used the QR code, and just did it ourselves so didn't have to worry about splitting the bill. They asked for name so I assumed they would come out saying order for name, but they came to the table just saying the item.

The food was from scratch, fresh and super delicious. The coffee was.. fine. Nothing special about it. They were out of half and half but it never got filled while we were there. Prices are what you would expect about 17 to 25 a meal, sides randong from 4 to 8 dollars for most. Simple hat coffee was like $4

There is lots of tables and some table booths. Pretty comfy. Just very close together so if you are wide of hip or need more space to navigate, like in a wheelchair, it's not easy. In fact when more people arrived it was so hard to navigate I gave up getting myself more water or coffee it was just too hard.

Atmosphere was nice. Simple, some plants, open. They used acoustic panels so it was never too loud, and the music was ... Actually I don't even remember if there was music.

We stayed a while and no one ever bothered us it was comfy.

Overall a good place to eat something nummy with friends, chat and relax.“

“Megan was an amazing server! Highly recommend“

“The staff here are super awesome and chill. We accidentally broke a glass and they were so nice about it, didn’t make us feel bad at all.

I don’t really like the taste of strong spirits, but the “Ass in the Sand” they recommended was sooo good and easy to drink. Would definitely come back!“

“This is a cool speakeasy secret bar located in Lakeville in the South Metro! When you first walk in, it is dark and hard to see a lot but once you get into the actual bar itself, there is this wonderful perfect, looking atmosphere of an old-time bar during the prohibition. The look and feel of the place really sets you into an era. Barkeeps and staff are all wonderful nice people that really know what they’re doing. My buddy and I sat next to the action at the bar all night and were very impressed with the Mixology that was showcased. There was a couple of our drinks that we didn’t know what we wanted, but we know what we wanted to have as far as an alcohol. The bartenders took our orders and made something awesome every single time. The food on the menu was good although it was a short list. However, we’ve heard word that the menu and also the venue is getting an upgrade. But just like this bar, keep that on the down low. LoL this is definitely one of those places that serve a little bit more expensive on the drink, but ultimately you get what you pay for and you get some really amazing work.“

“The hotel 🏨 was amazing 👏 from the moment we entered till we left“

“Bourbon Barrel is a hidden gem! Their food is some of the most adventurous and downright delicious around—every dish feels like a flavor expedition. The beer selection is wild, and they’ve got bourbons I haven’t seen in ages. Whether you’re a foodie, a craft beer nerd, or a bourbon lover, this place is absolutely worth the stop.“

“Everything was good great atmosphere. Steak and sides were also great. My one complaint is on menu and online offer japanese a5 wagyu which they do not have. I settled for the filet, they need to remove that since they do not have what is advertised. That is what I wanted to order until we were in restaurant and found out that they don't have a true japanese a5 steak to offer.“

“Everything! Wait time was accurate, food was outstanding in presentation AND taste, staff was warm, welcoming, and friendly. We will be back!“

“We came here for the first time as a date spot! The bloody flight was great! The Big Dill Bloody was probably my favorite, especially if you are a pickle fan! We enjoyed chips and queso as an app and order the grilled cheese with tomato soup as an entree! Both were delicious! Our server, Willy was great too! We can’t wait to come back!“

“I visited the Bayshore location in Glendale, Wisconsin for lunch. I used the coupon for $5 off & it was absolutely outstanding. I will be back for sure.“

“Amazing coffee and burritos. Nice staff and environment! Made getting snowed in perfect!“

“Tuvimos excelente atención por parte de la mesera Tania.“

“North Star Tavern absolutely crushed it for our group! We had our reservation double at the very last minute and they not only accommodated us, but were able to get us in earlier too. The host who helped coordinate everything was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating. I really wish I had gotten his name because he made the whole experience so easy. And Riley, our server, despite being a Packer fan 😉, was fantastic. She handled our large group like a pro and gave us excellent service the entire time with a smile on her face. Also…that Brussel sprout salad is an absolute banger. 10/10 all around!“

“Well crafted menu, seasonally updated, outstanding scratch deserts, great for night out, special occasions or lunch after shopping. Highly recommended“

“I was pleasantly surprised that the food was very good. I had the filet, and it was cooked perfectly. The filet was juicy, tender, and delicious. I also enjoyed the vegetables that came with it, including the fingerling potatoes. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their food, including the steak bites, steak salad, and the walleye. It did take quite a long time to get our food, but luckily, it was worth the wait. The dining room was a bit chilly, but was clean and comfortable. The server did a good job.“

“The absolute best customer service ANYWHERE! I can tell you … as a past employee there,,,,they do their best to fill a need but do it in a fun way! I was there for 25 years and as a top seller I can say it was the best 25 of my life. Yes, it’s a commissioned store but, they really DO see the customer. DO try to make it fun and get you what you need.“

“Food is fine. I asked for bread to go with the steak bites. I got 3 small, thin slices of white bread for $3.00. Normally a restaurant would serve bread with the meal for free. Limited menu. Pleasant service.“

“I ordered from Uber Eats and my delivery person never showed up. I waited for an extra 10 minutes, then called the restaurant. I was told it had been done for nearly half an hour and might be soggy. They graciously offered to cook another one for me.
Not only is their food outstanding, their service is top notch.
I'll definitely be back.“

“I absolutely love coming to Hope Breakfast Bar! Every time I visit I have the hardest time choosing what to get because everything on the menu sounds so delicious, and I’ve never been disappointed by what I’ve ordered. They have a very creative menu which I really appreciate and it’s all very fresh to give you the best experience possible. I highly recommend visiting!“
