“Twin Cities Purdue Alumni Club basketball game watch. Great food and atmosphere. Server was exceptional with a large group, different tabs.“

“Milly’s is an absolute gem in Minneapolis! The wine selection is impressive, with a great variety of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options that catered perfectly to our group. The food, especially the charcuterie boards, was delicious and beautifully presented. Don’t miss out on the French onion soup! Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. A special shoutout to Timothy, the sommelier, who was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us pick the perfect pairings for our meal. And the owner, Brandon, was so welcoming and personable, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. We’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

“Had lunch here today for the first time. Food was amazing and their pour your tap setup is awesome. Beer was extremely cold and fresh. Solid setup for watching sports as well. Will be back again in near future.“

“Immaculate machines, and great food. Drink prices are pretty reasonable too“

“Cultivated skill of fine dining meets dive bar. Bull’s Horn is something in between. Reasonably priced for dishes created by a culinary chef who makes his very own house made bologna and cheeses. His subtle cooking techniques results in extraordinary taste and texture that the unrefined tastebud may miss. Great food coupled with great service drove my family to stop here twice during our weekend trip to Minneapolis. Here are our must tries: Cheese Curd: Lightly battered and geniusly paired with thousand island dressing which breaks up the acidity of the cheese and brings out the rich creamy cheese flavor. Bologna Sandwich: Not from your childhood! This homemade recipe marries a blend of spices that makes your tastebuds dance. Lightly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside…assembled with homemade American cheese, a slice of crisp white onion on toasted white bread… the best I’ve had in my life! Chicken Gizzards: Technique, technique, technique. I can only wonder the effort and preparation on the front end that makes these gizzards so, so tender. Lightly battered and minimal frying time leave these gizzard with a “cut with a folk” and “melt in your mouth” texture that I have never experienced before.“

“Lovely atmosphere with great staff and fabulous cider! Watching the younger generation curling was so fun!“

“Love this place. Kitchen is open late. Drinks are tasty. Food is excellent. Staff is so friendly. 😁“

“Lots of fun. Great place to hang out.“

“Great venue! Had free water which NEVER happens at venues. Good sound and service. Will be back for sure! 5/5 stars!“

“Cozy and cool slice of Linden Hills. The menu has something for everyone, even a few kids options. Super friendly staff!

Kid-friendliness: High chairs and kids options available! Staff is very friendly and accommodating to kids.“

“Fantastic Food, great music and the wildest bunch of neighborhood regulars.“

“Great drinks and love the atmosphere!“

“Have a variety of drinks other than beer. Also have nonalcoholic beer.“

“We went for drinks and dinner, and it was excellent! Our server did an amazing job remembering orders for 6 of us chaotically throwing food and drink orders at him. The drinks were creative and well-balanced. The food was delicious. The music list was fun without being intrusive. Just overall a really fantastic time - we'll definitely be back!“

“This place is one of a kind in Minneapolis, and I couldn't say enough positive things to do it justice. Welcoming, and with the loveliest, most beautifully eclectic and wholly diverse bunch of regular patrons, anyone could easily make this place their home away from home. Members boast generous discounts and countless perks, and anyone can become one to join in and receive the same benefits. With multiple, assorted activities happening there on a consistent basis, there is something that everyone enjoy. From karaoke, blind dart league, drawing club, to trivia, to any one of the swing, country line, or salsa dance nights, or any of the hosted drum and bass, rock, metal, or rockabilly shows- it's always a time at the Eagles 34. They offer tasty bar food and 4 nights they showcase Polish food from Wojtek. Rad staff, rad patrons. Oh, and they contribute to local high schools through charitable gambling. They have bingo 3 days and pulltabs/etabs. This place rocks!“

“I love this place! I had excellent service and was treated so well by the staff- especially Sarah and Maddie. The food is great. Drinks are always good but it’s the service and the people that really make this place nice to come to. Sarah always goes out of her way to make sure my daughter and I are happy. Maddie is the best server I’ve ever had!
Keep up the great work, ladies!“

“Part of the Centro restaurant group. Everything is great except the parking situation. During peak hours, its near impossible to find parking near the area.

Food was great, its the same QR code ordering as the other restaurants. The Bina burger was almost like a Juicy Lucy without the mess. Chips were great. Deviled eggs were good.

Drink options are limited and the menu is kinda overpriced, but that hasn't disuaded anyone from coming.

There are bar games and the whole place has a speakeasy vibe.“

“A great area for dogs of all sizes to run outdoors, attentive staff to manage any pup issues, a great menu, and great drinks! It's a fantastic place to spend an evening with friends and your dogs without worrying about keeping your dog on your heels. There is also an indoor area for rainy or snowy days.“

“A new addition to Uptown, and a great one!

One of the best spots to go watch sports in Uptown. The TVs are great, the crowds are lively, and the food and drunks are amazing. It *is* a smaller spot, so try to get there early on game days - it gets busy fast.

We love the Cookie Shots, and the buckets are delicious too! The food has also never disappointed - I highly recommend their burgers.

Will always be coming back!“

“Nice little hole in the wall spot on Central Ave. Busy street makes for easy access by foot, but not car. So it’ll appeal to some but maybe not all. Drinks were great! The apricot old fashioned was phenomenal. Didn’t get food because there wasn’t much of a menu, but smaller items to snack on. Not really a dinner spot but definitely a romantic date spot with great drinks and service. $4 Hamms for HH is excellent.

Parking: If you are a driver, park on side streets and walk.“

“Chill vibe, great drinks, cozy atmosphere“

“Cool place! 🇺🇸 #StatechaserUSA #YouHaveBeenChased“

“Always a great time when we come here!“

“It was a nice place to learn a new craft. Service was excellent and they are helpful. Large selection to choose from. They only have flatbreads to order and I was not impressed. You can order food from nearby but I do wish they had a few other options for purchase.“

“The Northeast section of Minneapolis is a surprising Mecca for neighborhood taverns, and I was blown away by the quality of the food and service. The burger was cooked to perfection and the fries were crispy and hot, complemented by an icy cold PBR. The bartender was very pleasant and made sure I had everything I needed, while the clientele were entertaining and added to the lively atmosphere. I can't wait to come back and try the double cheeseburger again.“

“Finally, a place respecting the art of a delicious gin beverage! Offering a mesmerizing selection of gins and a creative delivery of flavors and botanicals, Moonwater respects the art of making a great, craft cocktail. I even enjoyed the little touches on the gin menu that showed what glassware the drink would be served in! A great gin menu, friendly staff, and access to Luna and the Bear's food menu make Moonwater the place for an enjoyable night out!“

“Really cool speakeasy bar and awesome cocktails 🍸🇺🇸 #StatechaserUSA #YouHaveBeenChased“

“This place is legit top restaurants in msp, why??? Because they have talent and imagination. Any one can buy great ingredients and high end products, but can you make sidewalk grass , spruce pine , lingcod , wildrice and strawberry taste good ?(Not a real dish just something off top of my head) That's talented and worth talking about , the folks here have talent. And if your looking for adventure of the palette look no further.“

“Fantastic. I already know what I'm having next time!!!“

“great service, Tony and Amanda are the best!!“

“first time going here and I had a great experience friendly workers pretty chill place to go“

“This is by far the nicest Sportsbar/pool hall I have ever been in. Super good food and the place is unbelievably clean. Owner Jerry and staff were super friendly and I got the meet Litte Joe Villalpondo while I was there. Thanks Jerry, it was fun.“

“Consistently an amazing breakfast.
It's a dive bar themselves will be with ya when they get there.
It's no bad service it's just not your turn to be served yet.
Be nice dork!
?
Just had steak eggs mush onions hash browns holendaze and 3 maybe 4 vodka grapefruit and I tipped over 20% out the door for 30$
That's unheard of in a big city.
It's a gem.“

“One of the top places in Minneapolis!!!“

“This was a nice surprise. We were looking for a spot to grab dinner before a concert and ended up eating and staying for drinks for a couple of hours. The drinks Dave made us were fantastic. The food was very good. Overall a great spot to stop at for food in the area. Between the great conversation with Willie one of the managers, and Dave behind the bar, it was a great experience and I know this will be where I go next time I'm up in Minneapolis.“

“I agree with previous poster. I will be dreaming of Francis now. Door was FABULOUS! Atmosphere is quaint. Francis is my new favorite“

“One of the best bars in Minneapolis, if not THE best. The people that go there on a regular basis really seem to take care of eachother.

Vegetarian options: Cheese Pizza

Parking: Parking on the street out front, also a paid parking lot across the street.

Kid-friendliness: Absolutely not

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible“

“Amazing food and amazing hospitality. Staff is really polite and sweet.“

“I had the best Shrimpo-boy here at the local 1029 Bar. Great atmosphere for anyone to watch sports, grab a drink, and chat with friends. The food here has always been top quality too. Shout out to the chefs

This restaurant also has a sweet outdoor patio during the summer with a nice view. They have cool events to check our year round. Don't miss those“

“Sometimes it’s nice to go to a place where people know your name“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“Best hidden secret in NE. Friendly staff and a nice little patio. Bring cash because they won't swipe credit cards“

“Amazing food, drinks & service!“

“The food was perfect and our server Sandy was attentive and made excellent recommendations. Definitely coming back“

“always wonderful perfect thin crispy crust perfect ratio of toppings today we had the El Camino - excellent but the spicy arbol chili red sauce was too hot for us we should have asked for mild or just pico de Gallo. our son will enjoy it“

“I have loved Dusty's for many years; and a Dago Works with potato salad is always a winner!“

“What an excellent little dive bar in NE! We went on a Thursday, and we were blown away by how good the daily deals were: BOGO burgers and $5 draft beers. Plenty of TVs showing a variety of programs, and a very friendly server. We will definitely be back!

(P.S. It'd be awesome if they got some bike parking on their corner of the intersection, as opposed to only having it kitty-corner by the deli.)“

“I always have fun here. There was a bartender on the weekend nights that gives me the heebie jeebies, and some of the arcade cabinets are always down or need some maintenance. The pizza here is hit or miss. But despite all that, I do have a good time here“

“As out of towners, we weren’t sure about this place based on outside and location. But wow! The inside is gorgeous, every food item was delicious (we split a buffalo chicken wrap, French dip, tots and cup of soup). Our waitress Jackie was awesome! If we are ever back in town, this will be a must-do! We are so glad we came here! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
