50 Best Bars near West Saint Paul

“The best St. Patrick’s Day corn beef and cabbage you can have. Good food on the menu also.“

“Best bartenders ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“They always have delicious food. Sloppy hot dago, chef salad, and daily specials are always my favorites.“

“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!“

“Reeeeeeeally wanted to give this 5 stars. Knocking off a star because both my friend and I got food poisoning after eating and this was the only meal we shared that day. Will give this another chance in the future and revise.

Service is stellar. Like seriously. We didn't have a reservation but they were still able to accomodate us at peak dinner time. Very patient in explaining their menu. Checked on us frequently, changed our plates with clean ones after every round, cleaned any spills on our table, always seemed to bring out the next course piping hot just as we finished the last one.

Food tasted phenomenal. I wanted to order literally everything on the menu. The gnocchi poutine was definitely the most unique. Restaurants usually skimp on desserts but not here - make sure to check it out. Price wasn't even that bad considering how amazing the food was and how stuffed we were afterwards.

Street parking. Location is a little odd being right under an apartment complex.

Definitely coming back, but I would be supremely disappointed if I get sick again.“

“Yes - a Warm Inviting Atmosphere and greeted by the owner! Music and drinks Great 5 stars ⭐️ from me !“

“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!“

“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 haven't tried the food so i can't say. but i got in a disagreement with the bartender this evening, and said that i was leaving, i'm a hair short of six feet and 250 pounds and i'm loud, usually unintentionally, and people always think i'm angry. So i'm sure the bartender took it that way. so he instantly gave my card back and said no need to sign i'm good to go. very friendly about it too. this was after an evening of exemplary service from him, but he didn't give me a chance to tip since we were disagreeing. what and excellent and principled thing to do. i like this bartender and can't wait to go back, also i did insist on tipping.“

“We came here with the promise of some great Coneys, and we were not disappointed. Yeah the place is a bit of a dive, but that definitely adds to the charm. The apps we had (fried mushrooms and mozzarella sticks) were delicious, but those Coneys... OH MY GOD!!! Absolutely delicious! I had 2 but I could've easily downed 2 more. So good, and what was especially impressive that every one of the 5 total that we had looked exactly the same. The consistency of the cook is often overlooked at other places, but not here. Top notch! Also, our bartender Jade (sp?) was super friendly and always on top of anything we needed. Very funny too. A little bit of humorous commentary made for an even better experience.

As I said, the Coneys are to die for, but I would also recommend the Reuben egg roll. I got one after I was finished with the dogs, and it was absolutely amazing!

Gopher Bar is definitely the place to check out if you are a Coney Dog fan. And if you're not, there's plenty of other options to try that all looked incredible when I scanned the menu. Also, and this is yet another reason to choose The Gopher, the prices are very cheap. I wouldn't have expected to get full for under $20 anywhere these days, but they certainly did it! I'm actually getting hungry again just typing this! 😅

FYI, cash only. They do have an ATM though. 👍“

“Nov 30 We cannot figure out if you are only open for events or daily for? Food or ? Need more places to support and eat/ s St. Paul“

“The new owners are amazing as well as the staff. Kirkwood BBQ has joined them in the kitchen and the food is a must have! Love the outdoor area and the space inside.“

“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!“

“This is the best live music venue in Saint Paul. They do not have a food menu, but if you want some snacks they can help you out. The patio is pet friendly and an awesome tucked away space with huge pine trees and a fire pit. If you want live music this is the place with having multiple shows on many nights. The early shows are even on weekdays and from 6-8 pm. You don't have to stay up late to enjoy the live music scene.“

“We’ve had 2 pregames here and had excellent food and service both times. Their fried pickle chips are awesome, wings great even sauceless (got dipping sauces on side), walleye fries were great, the only thing we were so so on were the nachos. Fake cheese was blah but otherwise all good! Service excellent, drinks cold.“

“I love that I discovered this place. I have been going to Lucky's for years and did not realize this existed. I came around the holiday period and they offer fun festive holiday drinks. By the time we arrived, they were no longer selling small bites. The entertainment for the night was a live band. I enjoyed a few songs and then ended up night upstairs at lucky 13.“

“I love this bar, it's my kind of place. Just walking thru the front door puts a big smile on my face.“

“Great Live Music @ Mikkel Bee Presents👍🥳🥳“

“Very Flavorful fine dining“

“My 4 year old had so much fun in the arcade!“

“Cool place in Mahtomedi. Great beer selection, and also the choices of wine are really nice, different from the usual. We have been here several times and the food has always been very good and the happy hour has some good appetizer selections. We will be back!“

“5 stars is not nearly enough stars for this place. I have celiac disease (severe wheat/gluten allergy) and when I saw gluten free cheese curds and gluten free fried pickles on the menu, I about cried. I haven’t had cheese curds or fried pickles at a sports bar since I was diagnosed 11 years ago. Their food is absolutely incredible- something you normally wouldn’t expect from a place like this. I’m so grateful to whoever created the menu!

Dietary restrictions: Tons of gluten free options! Designated fryer for the fried items listed as gluten free!“

“Both my daughter & my meals were good. She had the walleye tacos & sweet potato fries & I had the bbq burger, both were fresh and my burger was juicy!“

“Simple Bar for a simple good choice. Happy hour: All day, every day! My server was on top of things Great First Experience. OPEN on MONDAY!“

“Was passing through from red wing and stopped in on a Saturday. Wonderful atmosphere and Dani was amazing!!! Highly recommend stopping in for a drink and some pulltabs!“

“I finally came when there when it wasn't a soccer game and I probably had the best time I've had at a bar in a long time! Was a fantastic time, I'm definitely coming again <3

The aesthetic is great, its chill, and when things start bopping it's an exciting time, absolutely amazing <3“

“Great people and cheap drinks! Great band that plays Wednesday’s from 7-9 no cover!“

“small town bar atmosphere. great drinks, nice people.“

“This place is great even if everyone don't no my name I'm ok with that drinks are great ...

Parking: It's street parking right now where getting the train put in so construction has been making parking harder otherwise walking great 2 blocks from home.“

“Karaoke! Love the people there!“

“Old school local experience. Keep it alive“

“This is an absolutely wonderful male dive bar, it's quiet and has quick service... if you are a female watch out for Steve(married) and be ready for probably too much attention because it's all older men and a couple biddies around.“

“Best Dive Bar Around and Best Bartenders Ever!!! Definitely a place to check out when you’re in the St Paul area.“

“Great bartenders! My friends and I always have fun everytime we come😁🍺“

“Consistent quality and value at the St. Paul Hotel is guaranteed without the hoopla but more so by the incredible effort of the staff that is effortless. From my early arrival to in-room and venue dining to the daily interactions ~ I am always satisfied.“

“My first time here. It’s a tiny little local bar. They keep their old tradition as cash only, which the bartender explained, even though card option would’ve been nice since the atm and my bank both will charge fees withdrawing cash. Found out the hard way, but you have the option to leave if you don’t like it , no one is forcing you stay. bartender is a nice guy and made me feel welcome.“

“Awesome staff and fabulous patrons!“

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

“So romantic Lol fun bar is huckleberry still around?“

“Just good all around place for food and drink“

“Anna is the best bar tender that I have ever had the pleasure of being served by her! She is super friendly a great conversationist that makes you feel very comfortable when you are in this establishment. I will be returning to this place. Thank you Anna.“

“steak night every Wednesday night 6pm“

“Friendly staff and atmosphere..Karaoke with Dj Cowboy is always a blast! Great music, great singers, a lot of fun every time! I wish DJ Cowboy was there every weekend. ❤️🎵“

“This is a classic St. Paul bar. Don't expect anything fancy, but what it lacks in poshness it makes up in charm. The bartenders are very nice. The patrons are mostly regulars and are down to earth and friendly. If you want to just have a drink at a good price this is the spot. Oh and if you are worried about this place not being accepting and safe, I was here to watch my lesbian sister perform her music and was with my best friend who is a drag queen. My sister is one of the regulars here and her and her wife love it.“

“Wow! Like stepping into an elegant dream. I don't normally like lobster, but I could down those lobster deviled eggs all day! Be sure to order a Fitzgerald and plan on spending some time here just taking it all in.“

“Good friends, Meat Raffles on Wednesday’s and Fridays, Happy Hour Specials.“

“This has become a favorite happy hour hang out. Great value and the best bartenders. Kendrick is amazing.“

“Great tour by Cade. Beautiful facility and even better whiskey. Can’t wait to go back!“
