If you need some extra fuel or you're looking for a night on the town, check out what to see, do and eat before and after heading to Holidazzle.

Café and Bar Lurcat

Calling all foodies! You can’t come to Minneapolis and NOT try Café and Bar Lurcat. The trendy, urban eatery has both a café for a fabulous sit-down dinner, and a bar for hanging out with a couple of craft cocktails. Located right outside of Loring Park, it’s the perfect spot to relax, indulge and overlook the sparkling Holidazzle lights.

Lakes & Legends

A trip to Minneapolis just wouldn’t be the same without experiencing our incredible craft beer scene. Luckily, Lakes & Legends is just a few short blocks from Loring Park, so you can quench your thirst with a cold beer whenever the mood strikes. The beer is incredible, the space is beautiful, and they even have games!

Eggy's

Whether you're craving breakfast for breakfast, or breakfast for dinner, Eggy's has something delicious for you. Don't let the name fool you into think all they do is eggs. Their chicken & waffles is phenomenal and their pancakes are plate-sized goodness.

Brit's Pub

Located just a short pedestrian walkway from Loring Park, you'll find a corner of the UK right in Minneapolis beautifully decorated for the holiday. Complete with fish and chips, bangers and mash, shepherd's pie and other British specialties, Brit's is the perfect spot in town to fuel up before or after the Holidazzle. And with multiple roaring fireplaces and a full bar, it's also the perfect place to relax all winter long.

Walker Art Center

The Walker Art Center is a must-see destination in Minneapolis, especially with its location right next to Loring Park. Although the Walker has a number of incredible galleries and exhibits, the star is the Sculpture Garden. It is a true gem in Minneapolis. Visit the iconic Spoon Bridge and Cherry among more than 40 other works from the Walker’s collection. Afterwards, make a visit to Cardamom, the attached restaurant at the base of the museum. Enjoy top-notch cocktails and remarkable dishes all with a fabulous view through the glass-enclosed walls.

Sisyphus Brewing

Weekly comedy shows, unique flavor combinations and...dogs?! Yep, Sisyphus has everything you could want in a brewery. Getting hungry? They often have food trucks parked outside, or you can order from a place nearby and even bring in your own food!

The Butcher's Tale

Recently opened, The Butcher's Tale is the perfect spot to have a few drinks and get your fix of protein. Here they do meat right by providing a fresh approach to the culinary world of artisanal meats such as hand-crafted sausages and slow-fired long rib. Come into this warm, comfortable, welcoming space, fuel up and then head out for more fun at Holidazzle.
