Great place for quick organic/healthy food. They also serve local beers, liquors, and kombucha on tap! And you can even pick up a handful of groceries if you need.

One of my favorites. Try the vegan pancake, or the nachos with chicken! They know me by name, so if you see Alex, tell her Shannon sent you.

Drinks & Nightlife
My favorite bar in Minneapolis. No frills, no drama, and they won't kick you out for ordering a Budweiser. Two for ones during happy hour, and the best chicken wings you will ever put in your mouth.

Look for a hidden door behind the Bachelor Farmer. There are fairy lights strung up. Don't worry, you're in the right place, just open the door.

This little speakeasy is a little tricky to find. You have to go down an alley and behind some dumpsters. You'll see a queue at a door with a red light over it. Worth going, if you're up for the challenge of finding it! Ask for Angel, she's delightful.

Another "hidden" speakeasy (like Marvel Bar and Volstead's). Amazing burger. Fabulous cocktails.

Just a half block away from the studio. One of my favorite places in all of MPLS. Great for a picnic on the warmer days, or a quick walk for a breath of fresh air on a cold winter day.

There are a few hiking trails through this park. Also, you can grab a NiceRide (citywide bikeshare) and ride to it on the Midtown Greenway (about a 6 mile ride, one way). (I only recommend riding there in the warmer weather, not during the cold months.)
