Things To Do
Pizzeria Pezzo
Outstanding Coal Fired Pizza! The sandwiches and salads are also amazing. If you're feeling adventurous, try the "Pera" pizza... you wont regret it!
Washington Square Bar & Grill
Great food, and EXCELLENT Bloody Mary's with house infused Vodka. Also very frequently have live music.
Sam Thai Cuisine
Best Thai Food in MN, Full Stop. A must try if you're a fan of Thai cuisine. Carry Out Only at this time. A bit of a wait, but SO worth it. Call in your order ahead if you're short on time. Limited Hours, so check out the website before stopping by. Rachel recommends the "Fresh Spring Rolls (Vegetable)" and "Pork Pad Prik King Spice Level 4" (she is a spice wimp, and these ratings are not to be underestimated)
Rudy's Redeye Grill
Attached to our Hotel, excellent food and Cocktails. Rachel recommends the "Rudytini." Griffin Recommends the Salmon.
Cobblestone Cafe
Amazing Breakfast, limited hours though so make sure you check before heading over.
Mizu Japanese
Sushi in the middle of the Upper Midwest? YOU BETCHA! This place is great. A little spendy, but if you're looking for sushi... this is the place to be. You can't go wrong with this restaurant. Gluten Free Options available.
Acqua Restaurant & Bar
White Bear lake's premiere Fine Dining experience. If you're looking for something fancy, you'll find it here.
The Anchor Coffee House
Need a Pick Me Up? Look no further. This place blows places like Starbucks (and even Caribou *gasp*) out of the water. Just a really cool little coffee shop.
Keys Cafe & Bakery
A Minnesota Treasure & Tradition. "Pancakes the size of Manhole Covers" Awesome Gluten Free options available. You wont find a better breakfast anywhere. Also limited hours, so check the website or call ahead before visiting.
Cup and Cone
A White Bear Lake classic. Soft Serve, Dole Whip, Sandwiches, and more. Look for the line going down the block.
SweetLife Lane - Flavors, Favors, & More
A small town candy shop. Need we say more?!
The Alchemist
Rachel's Favorite Bar (and attached to our Venue) - If you're a fan of cocktails, this is the place to visit. She recommends the "Business as Usual" or "Lost in Translation" cocktails. They also will make phenomenal Mocktails if you're not in the mood for alcohol.
White Bear Bar
If you're looking for a townie/dive bar... look no further. Cash Only!
The Minnesotan
Also a great place to stop if you're looking for a souvenir to take home. They feature lots of vintage inspired local high school t-shirts, UofMN merch, and even White Bear Lake specific items. Always a fun store to browse.
GoodThings
If you're in need of a MN Souvenir to remember the trip and take home, this is the place to stop. Fun and quirky gifts, old fashioned candy... just the best.
Revive Salon
Need your hair done for this Shin-dig? Revive is across the street from our venue and has excellent reviews. We haven't been here personally -- But Rachel's gal will be busy!
Indulge Salon and Spa (Wigs, Toppers and Men's Hair Systems)
Did everyone already book out Revive? That's Crazy... this spot also has great reviews, and is just a few blocks away.
