“We came mothers day to take my sons and wife out had a great time foods good steaks were real tasty the server was funny and great.“

“I don't go here often, and each time I've gone, there's been a change in food offerings. Several years ago, it was more American bar food. About 2 years ago, there was more of a Mexican and American food offering. As of a few days ago, it is an Asian and American food offering. We chose the selection of appetizers of potstickers, egg rolls, spring rolls and cream cheese wonton at $8/ea. The apps were tasty and our bartender was pleasant. The customers appeared to be regulars as the bartender was offering to get them their usual as they entered. A welcoming environment for the middle of the afternoon. I do wish the tap beer was colder, but I also didn't ask if they offered a frosted mug. I'd go again without hesitation.“

“Burgers unrivaled by none. Nice pours, friendly faces, staff is professional and just really cool, and the pull tabs support SPFD. Doesn’t get any better. #eastside #stpaul“

“The Cubano was excellent, and the waffle fries and seasoned sour cream are better than other local establishments. I had to give props to the cooks. Most bar food is mediocre, but I was so impressed with their food. We had a great Sunday afternoon here chatting with regulars and the staff. Everyone was very friendly. We will be back!“

“A True neighborhood staple.

You ever step into a place that somehow feels like home, even though you’ve never set foot in the state before? That’s exactly how I felt walking into Gopher Bar.

The original wood interior and walls packed with memorabilia make it clear this isn’t just a bar—it’s a living piece of St. Paul history. It feels worn in, but in all the right ways… like generations have laughed, argued, celebrated, and made memories here.

While I was sitting at the bar, I heard an older couple behind me reminiscing about coming here when they were college kids. That says everything. This place has been a cornerstone of the community for decades, and you can feel it the moment you walk in.

It’s authentic. No pretense. Just a damn good neighborhood bar with roots.

If you want a true St. Paul experience, skip the trendy spots and head to Gopher Bar. You’ll understand why locals keep coming back.“

“We visited on a Tuesday evening and had the dining area to ourselves, which was perfect for my 96-year-old grandmother. The quiet atmosphere allowed her to hear everything and more easily join in on the conversations.

Our waitress was kind and attentive, with a traditional touch—she served the ladies at the table before the gentlemen, something I had not experienced before dining here. The food was better than we expected it to be, especially given that the menu was on the smaller side. We even got a slice of chocolate cake in honor of the birthday we were celebrating. Overall, it’s a nice spot to bring your family if you’re looking for a very calm, relaxed setting.

I’ve also included a photo of the menu since I had trouble finding an up-to-date version online—hopefully it’s helpful!“

“Great food. Beautiful view. Awesome service“

“If you’re looking for a hidden gem, The Cherry Pit is the place to be. From the moment you walk in, the cozy mom-and-pop vibe makes you feel at home. The food? Hands down the best I’ve had in a while! Portions are huge, fresh, and bursting with flavor, and all at an unbeatable price. Plus, the cherry on top – they’ve got charging stations right at the table, so you can stay connected while enjoying your meal. Highly recommend this spot! Mary K. Was our server and she was fantastic – super attentive and genuinely kind. She made sure we had everything we needed without hovering, and her recommendations were spot-on. It’s rare to find such great service that matches the quality of the food, but The Cherry Pit definitely delivers on both!“

“Bartender is awesome . he helped us drown our sorrows after the wild loss“

“Our kitchen is open. We focus on serving high quality, freshly made to order bar food, with a twist. We offer food specials as well as surprise Gourmet chef specials. We have awesome Bloody Mary's one of the best I've had. We offer drink specials 2 4 1s on domestic beer and premium rails. Our neighborhood is being revamped which is awesome for the bar and community. So if your looking for a cool neighborhood dive bar with awesome staff and great food come Check out The Saint Paul Saloon. P.s The owner is on site and loves to interact with the patrons of the bar.“

“Sweeney's was fantastic for hosting our large event. Their Oak Room space was perfect for a group of 120ish people, event staff were extremely helpful in setting up food, drinks, and fun for our guests and took great care of us the night of. Highly recommend as both a neighborhood bar, and as a place to host an event of any size.“

“Tuesday tacos , tater tots , burgers , and the ribs are some of my favorites. And if you're a wing fan be ready as they are huge !!😋🍻“

“Our favorite local place to enjoy amazing food and amazing service! Our servers, Erica and Martiza, are literally the bomb. We try to always come when they're working!“

“Great food. Served hot which is nice“

“I'm absolutely grateful and happy with the immediate herpes cure i got through Dr Momoh herbal home on Facebook. Keep saving lives Dr MOMOH“

“A classic Saint Paul neighborhood bar, with simple grub yet so affordable, a mix of Asian and American. All served as takeaway but you can eat it there if you want and the portions are gigantic. There's bingo two nights a week, a Friday afternoon meat raffle, and pulltabs/etabs. Locals are the majority of the clientele but for all its grittiness, it's a safe place with patrons who care about the establishment! Watch out for the parking lot. It's a dirt lot minefield of potholes that will destroy your transmission of you go faster than 1 mph.“

“Girls trip and we ended up at The Eagle Street. Mike on the piano..... amazing!!! the staff was amazing! We had an incredible experience and will tell everyone to go there!!“

“because Cubfoods hires and stands behind people who abuse their customers.“

“all 5 of us loved every bite. best burger tots were the best! service was great!“

“I was very glad to eat here at the recommendation of my foodie friend so I knew it would be excellent. The food did not disappoint in any way! Don't miss the bourbon list or the au gratin potatoes. The service left much to be desired as I had a server who was very kind but screwed up my order as well as everyone around me. Definitely eat here when in St. Paul!“

“Love the pinball machines! Highly recommended!“

“The best tap list in the Twin Cities northeast metro and guaranteed to have everyone’s favorite appetizer and meal on the menu. It’s a must stop for anyone visiting White Bear Lake and has the best patio in the historical downtown area. Whether you are visiting for the first time or lived here your whole life, you’ll love this place!“

“Very high quality food. Steak was amazing and the salad was fantastic. Portions were great for the pricing. Lots of places now have poor salads and this place had an amazing salad. Very fresh and great mixed greens. Great service and easy parking. Would come back again and again.“
