Live Music Venues With the Best Food and Drinks in the Twin Cities | Eater Twin Cities

"The James Ballentine “Uptown” VFW Post 246 might not seem like the first place to see a local show or grab a bite to eat, but this long-standing venue is a sleeper hit for locals in the know. Besides live music and dancing, the VFW also hosts weeknight events like drag queen bingo, trivia, and karaoke. Chef Miguel Urrutia relocated his Mexican restaurant El Jefe to the Uptown VFW — enjoy flavorful Mexican favorites like barbacoa tacos, guac and chips, and mole enchiladas. (For a modern twist, try brothy beef birria noodles and churro donuts.) Brunch seekers will find hashbrown and chorizo-stuffed burritos, saucy chilaquiles, a meat-topped savory waffle, and a smoky chipotle hollandaise-drenched eggs Benedict." - Natalia Mendez
