What to do and see in Warehouse District, Minnesota (MN): The Best Nightlife

June 8, 2021 Brain Ambrose

With its gleaming skyscrapers set amid glittering lakes, Minneapolis makes for an attractive and fun getaway. A truly year-round destination, the city offers activities for every season. In winter, one can explore the downtown area through more than seven miles of glass-enclosed skyways. In addition to keeping you warm, they create a lively thoroughfare filled with specialty shops, restaurants and services. Whether you want to escape the winter cold or the summer warmth, the Mall of America offers shopping, dining and entertainment options for any time of the year and every member of the family. Art lovers have plenty to see at the Minneapolis Art Institute, Walker Art Center and the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum, which all house world-renowned collections. The theater scene is thriving. With more than thirty theaters, Minneapolis has more seats per capita than any U.S. city except New York. See a Broadway show and enjoy dinner and live jazz at a fabulous restaurant. With kids in tow, check out the Science Museum of Minnesota, where visitors can produce their own video, or come face to face with a shark at the UnderWater Adventures Aquarium. In summer, the action moves outside. Known as "The City of Lakes," Minneapolis has 22 lakes located within city limits and many more in the surrounding area. In town, hordes of locals and tourists in-line skate or stroll around Lake Calhoun, stopping for ice cream along the way. Just outside of town, Fort Snelling State Park offers outdoor recreational activities from hiking to biking and golf to boating. No matter when you visit, Minneapolis offers lots for everyone to enjoy.

Very enjoyable pre Twins game lunch. Restaurant is following good Covid protocols, so felt safe. Santa Fe Salad was wonderful, tasty chicken, corn relish, avocado. Juicy Loopy burger and French Dip also very good. Seasoned fries were very thin and crisp.Our server was very good and made sure we had every thing we needed. Comfortable warehouse chic decor. We will definitely be back.

This was my favorite part of our quick girls weekend. We went to a Kane Brown concert and this was the only other thing we planned as we just wanted to enjoy a weekend of not too many plans. This was so much fun! Endless mimosas the day we went, neat atmosphere and the best part is that each person in your party can pick any project they want to do and you can all still sit together. So much fun!!
