Featured Bars/Clubs


http://www.thebdp.com With a menu driven by Jucy Lucys and all manner of fried goods (green beans, cheese curds, Spam bites, etc.), the Blue Door Pub is low on pretense but high on creativity and passion. The menu is dominated by scratch-made pub grub that puts a premium on quality and taste, and the atmosphere is friendly. Try the Breakfast Lucy ($8.50) if you're in the mood for something deliciously over the top. The creaminess of the fried egg, plus the thick-cut salty bacon, plus the burger, plus a whole mess of liquid cheese add up to one devilishly delicious meal on a bun. More >>
http://www.myspace.com/bigvs While Minneapolis has the Terminal Bar, St. Paul has Christensen's Big V's: a funky dive where you can catch a multi-band bill for a negligible cover charge and have plenty of cash left over to down a few drinks. More >>
http://www.dixiesongrand.com Dixie's may not be enough to make a true Southerner feel homesick, but it does serve a wide variety of Gulf state comfort food. Its generic but comfortable décor matches its middle-of-the-road menu, heavy on "blackened" fish and meat, sandwiches, and Cajun spices. The jambalaya and gumbo are popular favorites, along with po' boys (catfish, shrimp, and pork), and house-smoked barbecue. Entrees are generally $13 to $20 and range from Kentucky bourbon pot roast and honey pecan chicken to coconut fried shrimp and seafood potpie. Specials every month feature food from a different Southern state. Summer options include a patio and Sunday champagne brunch. More >>
http://www.thedublinerpub.com A no-nonsense Irish pub in the budding Midway-Vandalia neighborhood, the Dubliner plays host to live music almost every night of the week. Wooden barstools opposite the stage provide a nice vantage point for all the locals nursing their Powers and Jamesons. More >>
http://www.dunnbros.com Dunn Bros. has grown to be one of the biggest local coffeehouse chains in the Twin Cities Metro, and the Grand Avenue location is where it all started. Free wi-fi, live music, patio seating and their special coffee blends make this a popular hangout for nearby Macalester students. More >>
http://www.ginkgocoffee.com Located on Snelling Avenue near Hamline University, Ginkgo Coffeehouse is Midway's gathering place not only for coffee, but also for music, presented here on a small stage facing the busy street outside. This family-friendly cafe also has a menu offering a variety of fair-trade and organic products and is open until 11 on school nights, midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. More >>
A neighborhood tavern with a full bar and pool tables serving a menu including burgers, sandwiches, chicken and steak. More >>
http://www.ogaras.com From blue-collar bar to neighborhood institution to historical landmark, O'Gara's has called its Selby-Snelling intersection home since the early '40s. It's expanded significantly since then -- the Garage hosts live bands, while their game room occupies the space where Charles Schulz's father had his barbershop -- but it's still unpretentiously local, a St. Paul bar all the way.

Casual eating and drinking. More >>
http://www.salutbaramericain.com Modern lounge bar lights provide a nice backdrop for rail dwellers at this French-themed eatery on Grand Avenue. Award winning pomme frites will likely go well with any $4 house wine or tap beer during happy hour. Speaking of wine, Salut keeps a respectable list while featuring different bottles daily. More >>
http://www.townhousebar.com With a design that sets it apart from the big box retailers and long-gone auto dealerships that line University Avenue, the GLBT-friendly Town House Bar seems like a small and unassuming locale at first sight. But upon entering its front doors, a space that seems small opens to a generously-sized bar and adjoining dance floor, as well as a back room with another smaller bar and sitting area. This bar is also a great place to pick up inexpensive drinks, with all you can drink from 4-8 daily for only $9. Also expect nightly DJs, karaoke, or live entertainment. More >>
So you're looking to drink on University, but want to avoid the frat crowd of its western side and the music scenester vibe of its eastern side? Look no further than Tracks Bar & Grill. Located across from big-box hardware store Menards (need we say more?), you'll find simple grub, simple drinks, and a no-nonsense crowd of Midway wanderers and neighborhood folks mixing with travelers staying in its adjoining Days Inn. More >>
http://www.turfclub.net Few bars in St. Paul can boast the kind of bang-per-buck ratio as the Turf, where a twenty will get you in to see a three or four-band set -- usually featuring notable local and national indie-rock acts -- and enough drinks to last you pretty much all night. Upstairs features a classic, unpretentious '40s-vintage bar atmosphere, while the Clown Lounge downstairs hosts weekly jazz nights. More >>
http://www.wild-onion.net Ample accommodations for birthday gatherings and bachelorette parties make the Wild Onion a prime special-event destination for celebratory St. Paulites. But even if you're just in the neighborhood, or heading down Grand after an afternoon of shopping, the bar's casual yet dignified atmosphere and breezy seasonal patio make it a welcoming place to catch one of the many happy hours or themed special nights.
