Minnesota, United States Food Guide: 10 Bar food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Duluth

August 15, 2019 Claudia Navarrete

Find out what Bar restaurants to try in Duluth. Perfectly positioned at the westernmost tip of sparkling blue Lake Superior, Duluth offers visitors a true escape from the stresses of everyday life and an opportunity to enjoy nature. You can opt for a more leisurely pace: spending time at one of the city's 23 beautiful parks, taking an unhurried drive along the scenic North Shore, bird watching at Hawk Ridge, skipping stones on the Lake with the kids. Or go for a more structured itinerary: the aquarium in the morning, lunch at a sumptuous restaurant on the waterfront plus a tour of the famous Sculpture Walk, then a visit to the historic Railroad Depot in the afternoon. Either way, you are sure to leave Duluth feeling relaxed and refreshed.

I love vintage buildings...and this restaurant offers a fun atmosphere! We were there for a quick meal -- we ordered cheese burgers, mac and cheese, a Reuben sandwich and a big hot pretzel.The fries were fabulous...the burgers fantastic. The Reuben did not disappoint!! The mac and cheese was good along with the hot pretzel. The service was friendly and well done. The pretzel was not the best I have ever had...but still enjoyable. I will most definitely be back...and I will get that Reuben again for absolute sure!!! There are games for kids to play with -- it is a very family friendly place. The dining is upstairs however there is an elevator for those who prefer not to use steps.This is a definite place to try when you are in Duluth!!!

As indiacted by the title we last visited Grandma's Saloon in 2013 at that time I commented on how great the wild rice stuffed mushrooms are. Since that last review I must comment that the mushrooms are still good but no longer great. There is more cheese in the serving than mushrooms and white rice is mixed in with the wild rice. For the serving size 6 mushrooms I feel the price is pretty high and the quality has declined.Hello,Thank you so much for your longtime patronage and for taking the time to share your thoughts. I can assure you that our recipe has not changed for this menu staple, but I will use this as an opportunity to reinforce for our culinary team the importance of strictly following our specifications with every meal. Thank you,Jill TGeneral Manager

I'm not going to lie, we felt a bit old here... We rolled in around 9pm and the bar was filling up with younger college kids. There were still a few tables of older people and some parents with their kids, but for the most part we were surrounded by a younger generation. Once we got over this, which I did pretty quickly, we bellied up to the bar and ordered a flight of 4 beers. I can't say an Irish brewery is going to brew my favorite type of beers but i found most things well done here. After our flight we grabbed a couple beers and walked around until we found a couple chairs to sit and enjoy our beers while we shared stories of our youth. Fun place, good beer, busy but friendly staff!

Very historic. Beautiful woodwork from the early 1900's. Food was wonderful. We were there for dinner. Many options. You won't be disappointed. It was a walk to dinner before other activities took our time.It was an amazing meal. We had our daughter from New Zealand with us and overlooking the lake was an amazing.

Sir Benedict's Tavern

Reviewed By bigdaddy73

We stopped at Sir Ben’s as we typically do as we travel from the Twin Cities to our cabin in Two Harbors. We are creatures of habit, so we ordered our smoked Gouda butternut squash soup... on a 90 degree day, but also with a couple of cold beers.If you’ve not been here before, the soup is legendary, and the selection of beers is second to none. I had a Bent Paddle IPA, and my wife enjoyed a raspberry blonde something or other. Both were delicious, and paired well with our soup, the Reuben sandwich we split, and the kettle chips that came along.Our favorite part is the banter at the bar. We always sit there... and my wife always gets involved in conversations with locals, students, and other travelers. The bartenders are smart, funny, and always accommodating. Another wonderful memory.If you haven’t yet, go to Sir Ben’s!

Walking over from our hotel in Canal Park, we stopped by Fitger's Brewhouse on the recommendation of a coworker (and Duluth-native); she assured us that the beer was good but the wild rice burgers were not to be missed. My mom and I both ordered different wild rice burgers, and were both incredibly happy with our choices. I had the burger with blue cheese and onions and a really delicious jelly. The root beer was also awesome.We were seated right away around 6 on a Friday night, out on the patio; dog-friendly. The brewhouse isn't a huge space but there's room enough (it's not too cramped) and the few other shops in the complex are fun to drop by before / after dinner, too.
