New life for an old favorite |
1360 North Lexington Parkway Minneapolis, MN 55104 United States +1 651 488 4920 http://www.comopark.com/pavili... |
Located on the eastern edge of Como Park, this old favorite has graced the shore of Como Lake for more than 100 years. Less than ten years ago, it underwent a complete renewal. It had been boarded up and steadily declining throughout the 1980s. The structure was actually torn down and completely rebuilt, though it has the same design as before. On its wide veranda stage overlooking the lake, free concerts and plays are offered during the summer months. The building houses Black Bear Crossings on the Lake, meeting rooms and banquet facilities. In the summer, paddle boats and canoes are available for rental use on the small lake.

Fun in Como Town! |
1301 Midway Parkway Minneapolis, MN 55103 United States +1 651 487 2121 http://www.comotown.com |
If your child needs an outing and you want some time to yourself, send them to Como Town or better yet, go along. With ample activities to choose from, like so many different kinds of rides, fire fighting games, driving cars and planes or just running around and enjoying yourself, Como town is a child's paradise. Have a birthday party here or a picnic with your entire family. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Live Jazz, Local Food |
1010 Nicollet Avenue S Minneapolis, MN 55403 United States +1 612 332 1010 http://www.dakotacooks.com |
This classy bar and grill has been a pioneer among local restaurants by offering regional, home-produced food. This casually chic establishment has evolved into the best place to hear local and national jazz acts. An intimate stage separates the bar from the dining room. The acoustics are considered some of the best in the Upper Midwest. The trout comes from a Wisconsin farm and local game fowl, mushrooms, and wild rice are featured. It is all put together with the utmost care and a lot of imagination. The wine (including some by local wineries) beer and liquor selection are impeccable. Review © 2007, Wcities |
