Eat at Banning and Fifth

Visiting town for a college fair and I found this absolute gem. I was fortunate enough to arrive on the last day of "Chili Dog Days". I was even more fortunate to arrive just before the lunch rush. This place is very popular and I understand why. The staff was excited about my order choice and everyone just had a level of hype and energy that you don't often see. Also the dessert bar is just filled with tempting options that I couldn't resist. It's a very solid Boston cream pie. It was a very quaint atmosphere and I couldn't recommend it enough. I'll absolutely be coming back when I'm back in town.

Great lunch spot for take out out or eat in if you are in downtown White Bear Lake. Good variety of soups, sandwiches, and dessert and all were delicious.

This place is amazing, the service is delightful, and the food is wonderful!

It was extremely good. I might encourage them to move away from using. Styrofoam disposable serving plates. Styrofoam, as I understand it is rarely recycled. Very difficult to recycle and does not naturally break down. Noe stepping down from my soap blocks. The Ruben I had was delicious as was the soup. And the people were extremely nice.

Decided to try a new place today VERY HAPPY with our decision!! Wonderful fast pleasant service very clean establishment and the FOOD WAS AWESOME. Reuben and tuna was tasteful and filling. Seriously where can you eat soup with a fork so hearty and delicious. WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK AGAIN 5⭐10 times over

Coming here is like walking in to happiness. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful. The food is made quickly and tastes delicious. It's a great lunch spot and I love coming here.

I have gone to this place for many years and the family is incredibly charming. They have very fresh and healthy ingredients, prompt service, and fair prices. Try the soup and croissant of the day if you can--don't forget the delicious desserts!!

Super cute lunch spot ! Friendly atmosphere and delicious food ! Fresh and homemade! Highly recommend! You can take out for a picnic or eat in the restaurant! Bonus - so many homemade desserts too ! Don’t miss out !
