A Year-Round, Dog-Welcoming Patio Will Open in St. Louis Park | Eater Twin Cities

"Opening October 10 just off Louisiana Ave. S. on Walker Street in St. Louis Park’s Historic Walker Lake District, I learned that The Block Food + Drink—Craft & Crew Hospitality Group’s newest project—aims to be a dog-friendly neighborhood hangout with an indoor/outdoor patio and heated floors so pups are welcome year-round. A long list of milkshakes is the star of the menu, each built on a frozen custard base with an option to add booze: the 'Cereal Killer' blends Fruity Pebbles and Froot Loops with vanilla custard and vodka, and the 'Cookie Monster' mixes Oreos into chocolate custard with a splash of Baileys Irish Cream. Human diners will find extensive brunch and dinner options from burgers to vegan rice bowls, housemade soups to revamped bar classics, plus a three-course dog menu; canines and kids dine free on Tuesdays, and the restaurant will offer a variety of weekday happy hour deals. The Block will operate weekday lunch and dinner service and weekend brunches." - Julie Yu
