"At this neighborhood gastropub, you’ll find more than 60 beers on tap, along with a menu that stands up to the suds. The appetizers are full of potluck classics, including Swedish meatballs served with lingonberries and sour cream, loaded baked potatoes topped with pulled pork and beer cheese; and a spicy pickle dip, tart with giardiniera and served with kettle chips. The bar can get crowded during NFL games when drinks are always happy hour prices, so make sure to arrive early if you want a guaranteed table. Reservations are accepted on Tock, and yes, there’s takeout." - Julie Yu
"Pop into The Gnome Monday through Friday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. for $4 well drinks and select drafts, $5 house wines, and $2 off all craft cocktails. The happy hour eats menu features $7 food specials like nachos, spicy pickle dip, a foot-long hot dog, and buffalo chicken sliders. Happy hour is also offered during all NFL games. The gorgeous wooden bar inside is always a good choice if you’re seeking a classic Saint Paul vibe." - Stacy Brooks, Alex Lodner, Eater Staff
"The Gnome’s popular patio is well equipped with heaters, a tent, and massive fireplaces. This spot is known for its fun takes on bar food: Think spiced beer can chicken, giant pretzels, and a hefty pork belly and skirt steak burger with bacon jam." - Eater Staff
"At this St. Paul staple, the bottomless bloody mary bar during brunch every weekend always draws crowds. But the late-night happy hour is a sleeper hit. Get tap favorites for $5, and order their housemade pretzel to share: malty, deeply browned, flecked with salt and always fresh from the oven." - Eater Staff
"The cozy room upstairs at the Gnome can hold up to 125 guests. This elegantly rustic venue boasts 60 tap lines, an impressive whiskey list, and a patio with options for heaters and a cozy fireplace in chilly weather." - Justine Jones, Alex Lodner
