Best Bars in Minneapolis and St. Paul | Eater Twin Cities

"Palmer’s has been a beloved West Bank bar since 1906 — and owner Tony Zaccardi has been at the helm since 2018. This a salt-of-the-earth kind of place, perhaps Minneapolis’s most quintessential dive. As Zaccardi told Growler Magazine: “One of my favorite mantras about Palmer’s, is that it’s very much Black, white, rich, poor, gay, straight, trans, left, right, it kind of doesn’t matter. Everyone’s welcome here until you’re an asshole.” There’s a nightly live music calendar, so come catch a show on Palmer’s famously tiny, triangular stage — or swing by for the legendary Cornbread Harris’s weekly performances." - Eater Staff
