The Rabbit Hole Sports Bar and Venue Is Now Open in North Loop | Eater Twin Cities

"Opened Friday, February 7 in the former Axebridge Wine Co. space at 411 N. Washington Avenue, this 15,000-square-foot sports bar and live-entertainment venue includes a 3,000-square-foot patio and a planned multi-level patio opening this spring with seating for several hundred.

Marylanders Get Their First Taste of Guinness’ New Collaborative Brew | Eater DC

"I read that a new tavern called the Rabbit Hole is planned for Dupont Circle at 1214 18th Street NW, promising Asian-style street food — its liquor license specifically mentions banh mi and pho — and that the restaurant hopes to seat about 100 people when it opens in Spring 2011." - Warren Rojas

We stopped here for happy hour after a twins game and had a great time. The nachos and wings were great! The place has a younger vibe with lots of seating for any size group. Will very likely be back.

It was my bday I wanted to try this place out Food was good I had the wings also I had a grilled chicken sandwich which for $19 I think the owner should replace that toasted white bread out for a Brioche buns that sandwich would go from 5 to top tier 10 it's good but not great I hated the toasted bread so after removing the bacon n tomato n guacamoleit was boring other than the vibes where good loud I didn't expect a lil night club but it was fun I totally recommend this spot I will be going back to try other things in the new future check this place out if you looking for a good food n vibes ask for Madison she was a great waiter very friendly.

Rabbit hole is such a fun place to watch a game or dance on the weekends! The bartenders are fabulous, especially Tyler!! She was so nice and friendly, and so quick to get us what we needed every time. I even asked her to make me a drink that wasn’t on the menu and she didn’t hesitate and made it right away! She took care of us all night, and was so quick and great - even during the busiest part of the evening! We had such a great time with great service from her and she’s definitely the best bartender we’ve had there. I can’t wait to come back!

Went here to see a band on NYE, and the entire experience was a mess from start to finish. The bouncers created two lines: one where you could pay to skip and one where you waited outside in freezing temperatures for over an hour. This is especially infuriating because the event was advertised online as having no cover charge. The “skip the line” option was an obvious scam. When we first got in line, bouncers were charging $20 cash or $30 via Venmo to skip. By the time my group was near the door an hour later, the price had jumped to $50–$60. We even overheard another group say they paid $50 each through an app called “Leap,” only to be told they still had to wait—and then were asked to pay again. That group ended up paying close to $100 per person just to get inside and out of the cold. It was blatant exploitation, and it seemed very clear the bouncers were pocketing the money themselves. As for the “free” line, it was miserable. We waited over an hour in the freezing cold, and the bouncers couldn’t have cared less. At one point they claimed they were doing “one in, one out,” but with both the paid and unpaid lines, there was zero organization. People were let in randomly, entirely at the bouncers’ discretion. Once inside, the bar was extremely overcrowded and very clearly over capacity—no regard for fire code whatsoever. Security inside was ineffective: bags weren’t checked, trash covered every table, and staff did nothing about men sexually harassing people. Security was present, but completely useless. Overall, this was an awful experience, especially for an event night. Customers were treated poorly, safety was ignored, and the behavior of the bouncers was unacceptable. Because of how this event was handled, I would never recommend this place—not even on a regular night. Extremely disappointing.

We had an amazing time at The Rabbit Hole! The atmosphere is very exciting and the staff are fabulous! The bartender Blake brings a lot of energy and engages with his patrons. The music was great and the restaurant is so spacious. The chicken tenders are amazing! We are definitely going back! You need to check this place out!

Waited in the extreme cold for an hour while tue bouncer pocketed $40 per person to let people get in (this was not even the $50 skip the line pass, that was another long line).. meanwhile there were people freezing outside.. if you’re going to pocket money to let people in because you are doing a “1 in 1 out policy”, split it evenly so people aren’t freezing to death outside. I’m glad I didn’t buy a skip the line pass because that was a waste when the bouncer is just letting in everyone who Venmo’s or gives him cash…

Evan was an awesome server at Rabbit Hole. Super friendly, attentive, and on top of everything without ever feeling pushy. He checked in at the right times, had great menu suggestions, and made sure our drinks and food came out exactly how we wanted. The whole experience felt easy and relaxed because of him. 5 stars all around and I would definitely ask for Evan again.

Great sports bar. I was there for NFL Sunday and every game was on with a DJ spinning during commercials for Vikings game. Great atmosphere!

i stopped into the rabbit hole last night and had a great time. The food and service was great - I had chicken tenders and Mac and cheese. Our server, Rowan, was so friendly and was on top of everything. I will definitely be back!

First time checking this place out and it was awesome! I have been here before when it was a wine bar. They have so many tvs so they can play all the sports and it was nice and clean! Our waitress was so great, she was friendly and attentive and def made the experience even better! I got the smoked dry rub wings and they were really good! It's so great to have another place that you know will play for favorite sports team and they also played the audio of the main game which was the timberwolves

Fun spot for watching sports! TV's everywhere, lots of seating and a few bars. Patio- covered and not covered, TV's outside, pulltabs! Free bus to and from the vikes game There was a DJ so it was very loud and could barely have a conversation. It was a little before the game started so I'm assuming they turn off or down the music for game time. Just got a drink and left. This was my first time there. It wasn't too busy before the game, we didn't get served for maybe 10 minutes, the server was sweet but we didn't get checked on frequently. They could have been short staffed so I don't want to judge it off my first time. Will try again and give it another chance! Might try it again to watch a game, or maybe even a night out with friends. That might be more their vibe!

I've been wanting to check this place out for awhile and was in the area with friends so we walked a few blocks over to see what the hype was about. It was basically an extreme sports bar/wanna club? When we walked through the door it was loud but when actually got seated, omgoodness... it was painfully loud (or maybe I'm just old). Like the music was to the max and it was packed so everyone was yelling to communicate. Also when you walked in there's a sign "wait to be seated" the host sat us right by the entrance and there was a large group of people hanging around the table she was seating us at, she did nothing to let them know they needed to move. With the loud music it did feel like it could have been dance vibes but it also looked like they had an area for that (not 100% sure though). They also had bingo going on & the twins game had just let out, very busy time. We sat for while looking over the menu. It was a while before we got waited on and a waitress came over and basically threw her coworker under the bus, she told us he was too busy to help us & at one point we looked over and he was partying with another table, I thought he was apart of the group vs a staff. Waayyy later, I mean drinks were on our table, menus were gone because we put our order in, he came over and attempted to wait on us but kind of put the pieces together that someone else served us. If we would have had to wait the amount of time it took him to come over, we for sure would have left. They did offer HH deals which is nice especially for weekends & during the day!! We had been bar hopping so we ordered drinks and an app. I got canned drink & truffle fries. The fries were super greasy and served warm. Would have been a bit better if they were hot. One of my friends got the Red Bull trash can drink she was kind of expecting them to served it with the Redbull can tipped in the drink or the rest of the can served on the side (some places do that) but she overall said the drink was good & she would get it again. I'm overall not moved by the experience enough to want to go back. I can see the college kids loving this place!

Service was very good. We happened in during Karaoke night so it was a bit too loud for my taste. Good looking decor

With its impressive space, fun bunny themes plastered everywhere and great entertainment, the rabbit hole is a great change to the nightlife downtown. Beers aren't too expensive and you can get service at your table or at either of the two bars. Come check it out!

Came on a Tuesday, and had the special of course...tacos. They were delicious, and packed a little punch. Washed them down with a couple beers. The server was friendly and attentive.

My friends were out celebrating their birthday in downtown and someone suggested The Rabbit Hole. It's a basement night club and restaurant during the evening. Right off Washington Ave, so many people were in line to get in. Once inside, there's people dancing, DJ playing music, and more people waiting for their drinks at the bar. Quite spacious place. Coed bathrooms and lines were long, but there were cleaners that came often. More sitting area towards the opposite side of the dance floors, I assumed it was VIP area, but no indication. We didn't order any food, kitchen was already closed. Only drinks were available. If you're looking for a place to dance, this one is in Minneapolis.

My friend and I stopped at Rabbit Hole in North Loop on a Friday night. We got there on the early side (around 9pm) parking was a bit tough but we found a spot about 1 block away and walked. Since we were there before the crowd really developed there was basically no line to get in. The lady at the check in desk did let us know that we needed to make a reservation in order to have a table. We were bummed but it was okay because we found a seat at the bar. Let me tell you something about Rabbit Hole, it is jumping! This place is SO much fun. You can vibe out with your friends, chat with people, dance, get drinks, food, bop around. We had a time. Dress up, dress down, be comfortable. The music is very loud, but it's not a club or a lounge. More like something in the middle. But I'd definitely recommend this place. The age ranges are between 23-45+ I'd guess. The waffle fries were hot, and came in a big portion. Nothing to write home about but they do the trick. Very salty so make sure you order water too. At 10pm they pull the chairs away so be prepared to dance and stand. The bartenders and servers were so kind! I'll be coming back to Rabbit Hole on my next night out!

We were excited to try out this new popular bar in north loop, and had a blast! We ran into a ton of people we knew and had great service. It was a ton of fun for st. Patrick's day with themed specials and a packed bar. We were even able to secure a table for 12+ of us in the side room. Excited to come back here soon!

We tried this place out on St. Patricks day and boy was it busy! But that was to be expected. We had a group of 13 so we put our name down for a table and then waited by the bar until it was ready. There was place to stand and dance while you waited for a table. We were probably there for a little over an hour until we got a table which is what we expected. They put us in a side room and we had a table and couches which was a great space. Our server was fantastic and attentive which was awesome since it was so busy! We ordered a few different things to share including fries, chicken tenders, and guac. The food was pretty good and I would like to return to try those mozzarella sticks and the pretzel as those were looking really good!

The Rabbit Hole in the North Loop of Minneapolis is a great place! It has a really fun atmosphere, serves great food & drinks and the staff is very friendly & efficient. The bartenders really do an excellent job engaging with all their customers. Kattie, Aria, McKenna, Jaclyn and Taylor are the best bartenders you will find in Minneapolis.

The food is largely garbage. And they are terrible neighbors. They have created a traffic nightmare for the condos across the street who struggle to use their driveway and run an over bright flashing sign that also negatively impacts residents at night.

The live music is a major vibe killer. The dj is always amazing. After a certain time, such as 10pm, move to a dj instead of live music!
