Overview
Hungry for an off-the-beaten-path Minneapolis food experience? Join us as we explore two of the city's trendy and historical neighborhoods, the Mill District, and St Anthony on Main in Northeast Minneapolis at the edge of downtown. You'll enjoy sampling food at the first Thai restaurant in Minnesota, eating homemade gelato, and drinking locally-milled matcha. A highlight for many is the diversity of tastings which showcase the multi-culturalism of the area from its very beginning.
In addition to sampling food, we'll also stroll by the local Farmers Market, Mill City Museum, and Guthrie Theater. You'll enjoy gorgeous views of St Anthony Falls as we walk along the Stone Arch Bridge into historical St Anthony on Main. You'll learn about the history of both neighborhoods while touring the oldest street in Minneapolis. You'll taste and chat with other food-loving guests, and leave the tour with an appreciation for these distinct neighborhoods that most tourists never see!
Note: while the Stone Arch Bridge is closed for restoration, we will cross the Mississippi River via an alternate bridge
