August 2, 2015
Minneapolis is a vibrant city offering no shortage of things to see and do — especially in the bustling downtown area. Once the hub of the flour mill industry, downtown Minneapolis is now a popular destination for dazzling entertainment, fine dining, and incredible shopping. Here are our picks for three great ways to spend a summer evening in downtown Minneapolis:
Wine and Dine in the Warehouse District
The Warehouse District of downtown Minneapolis boasts a plethora of bars and restaurants to please your palate. Head to Saffron Restaurant & Lounge for cocktails and tapas, in addition to scrumptious entrees like Whole Roasted Brazini and Grilled Lamb Chops. Or, visit the Bachelor Farmer, a Nordic-inspired eatery offering menu choices like Baked Duck Egg and Lemon Chiffon Cake. Here you’ll also find an extensive wine list with offerings from around the world. If swanky is your style, check out The Monte Carlo, a restaurant and bar offering fine American cuisine and an extensive selection of martini choices.
Shop ‘Til You Drop at Nicollet Mall
With a history dating back to the early 20th century, Nicollet Mall is the city’s premier shopping destination. This massive mall spans 12 blocks and features stores like Macy’s, Banana Republic, GAP and a spacious multi-level Target. The mall is also home to a variety of specialty boutiques, as well as plenty of places to dine. When you need a break from shopping, head to La Belle Crepe for Italian coffee, gelato and of course, crepes. Outdoor seating provides the perfect opportunity for people watching on a warm summer evening.
Take in a Sweet Symphony at Orchestra Hall
Located in the Nicollet Mall area is Orchestra Hall, host to regular performances by the Minnesota Orchestra. At Orchestra Hall, you can attend concerts for all ages, fun music festivals, summer camps and more!
