Daily Happy Hours

Muddy Waters Bar & Eatery : Daily

Fans and residents of the Wedge neighborhood will remember Muddy Waters as the coffee shop mainstay at the corner of 24th Street and Lyndale Avenue.

Brain Game

Bryant-Lake Bowl Theater : Every week Friday from Fri., February 10 until Fri., February 17, 6:00pm

Open Blues Jam with Moses Oakland

Famous Dave's BBQ & Blues Uptown : Every week Sunday, 8:00pm

Moses Oakland relocated from the Bay Area to the Twin Cities back in 1987, and since then -- well, it'd probably be easier and less space-consuming to list all the venues he hasn't played and the legends he hasn't gigged with. A blues, soul and jazz aficionado well-versed in a wide array of... More >>

Daily Happy Hour

The Bad Waitress : Daily

Yes, Bad Waitress is an ironic title. No, you will not have a waitress this evening. Yes, you should tip the person who takes your order at the register. Here's how you do it: Pick a seat, peruse the menu, then pick up an order pad and write down what you want. Take it over to the register and... More >>

Leaning Tower Happy Hour

Leaning Tower Of Pizza : Daily

Of the many bars scattered along Lyndale Avenue, the Leaning Tower of Pizza is one that truly feels like a neighborhood bar.

Weekday Happy Hour

Lyndale Tap House : Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Located next to the Jungle Theater, just a skip away from the intersection of Lake Street and Lyndale Avenue, the Lyndale Tap House is another Uptown location that serves a good pint of beer.

Weekday Happy Hour

Pancho Villa Restaurant : Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Happy hour can be a tricky thing if you work a regular job. Most are over by 6 p.m., so forget it if you're a commuter. And sometimes staying out past 9 p.m. is just not an option. Thankfully, some bars and restaurants have more friendly drink specials and hours. Eat Street's Pancho Villa would... More >>

Galactic Pizza Open Mic

Galactic Pizza : Every week Thursday, 9:00pm

There is something undeniably low-key about Galactic Pizza. The colorful, humbly small space feels cozy, not crowded, at any hour.

Daily Happy Hours

Cause Spirits & Soundbar : Daily

This time last year, the area surrounding the corner of Lake Street and Lyndale Avenue was alarming in its increasing vacancy. Victims of the economy included Heavenly Soles, Vera's Café, and jP American Bistro. Thankfully, things seem to be picking up. One recent addition is Sauce... More >>

Last of the Record Buyers

Fifth Element : Third Thursday of every month, 6:00pm

MCs may get all the mainstream attention nowadays, but hip hop started as a DJ-centered movement, and the truest heads can rattle off their all-time favorite producers as readily as they can list their top lyricists.

A Sake and Sumo Happy Hour at moto-i

moto-i : Daily

You may have heard rumblings about a sake restaurant opening in Uptown recently. Though it might be a little hard to find, despite its obvious location on Lyndale right by Lake Street, it's definitely worth a visit.

The Poet's Groove

Blue Nile Ethiopian Restaurant : Every week Tuesday, 10:00pm

Lots of open mics are awkward, empty affairs, tucked into corners of coffee houses and bars, their schedules unreliable. The Poet's Groove is something else entirely. It's been a weekly Seward neighborhood institution for six years, and calls the Blue Nile home. Hip-hop/spoken-word artist (and... More >>

Happy Hour

Bulldog Restaurant : Daily

Sure, the other two Bulldogs (St. Paul and Northeast) are a little more posh, and the clientele is perhaps a little more affluent as well, but we will always have a soft spot for the less fancy location in Uptown. That said, it's hardly a dive. The crowds are mostly from the neighborhood, and... More >>

The Breaks

Suburban World Theatre : Every week Friday, 9:00pm

Kung fu, hip hop, and breakdancing might seem like an unlikely combination, but once you experience this threesome you'll understand that it's as tasty as peanut butter, banana, and honey. Friday night's party, dubbed the Breaks, gives you the opportunity to do just that. Step inside the... More >>
