WHERE TO TALK SHOP

Professionals meet over “seasonal Midwest” fare like creamy spinach cheese curds in James Beard Award– winning chef Gavin Kaysen’s Spoon and Stable, located in a converted horse stable downtown. Come to Moose

& Sadie’s for the chance to rub elbows with the North Loop’s advertising and marketing gurus, who often take breakfast meetings at the café— and stay for the locals’ favorite dish, huevos rancheros, made with refried beans prepared in-house.

Minneapolis is no stranger to craft beer, so when entrepreneurs want to toast to the day’s accomplishments—or failures—they head to one of its many breweries, including Bauhaus Brew Labs, known for its varietals like the IPA Sky-Five.
