Things To Do

The Osakis/Alexandria area is our favorite place to be in the summer. Kylie’s family has a seasonal camper on a site at a nearby campground, and because of that, we’ve spent countless weekends up here over the years. This area holds so many special memories with family and friends. Below are some of our favorite places to go and things to do while you’re in the area.
Carlos Creek Winery & 22 Northmen Brewing Company

Carlos Creek Winery & 22 Northmen Brewing Company

6693 County Road 34 Northwest, Alexandria, MN 56308

A winery and brewery with great pizza and an incredible atmosphere. This is hands down our favorite place to go in the area and a must-visit while you’re here.

DJ's Tap House & Grill

DJ's Tap House & Grill

3007 Minnesota 29, Alexandria, MN 56308

One of our favorite dinner spots in Alexandria. Their burgers are to die for, and The Rippin’ Razz is our personal favorite.

Ron's Warehouse Distribution

Ron's Warehouse Distribution

900 County Road 40 Northwest, Alexandria, MN 56308

A giant warehouse filled with marked-down items where you can find everything and nothing you were looking for. Not your typical recommendation, but one we love for stocking up, wandering the aisles, and “dilly-dallying” as we like to call it.

O-Town Tavern

O-Town Tavern

17 Main Street East, Osakis, MN 56360

A longtime favorite of ours for casual meals and relaxed evenings, and one of our favorite places to bring Lena and spend time together on the patio. It’s the kind of place where you can grab a drink, enjoy good food, and feel right at home.

A J's Café

A J's Café

230 Central Avenue, Osakis, MN 56360

A cozy little diner serving up classic breakfast favorites and seriously great food, especially the caramel rolls. If you’re in need of a sweet treat (or a hearty breakfast) the morning after our wedding, this is the place to go.

Brother's Market

Brother's Market

300 West Nokomis Street, Osakis, MN 56360

Not your typical recommendation, but one of our favorites. Brother’s Market is our go-to stop for road trip snacks, bathroom breaks, ice cream, fishing supplies, quick grub, and simple grocery shopping. Honestly, if you need anything in a moment’s notice, this is the place. Our favorite gas station and convenience store, hands down.

Jacobs Lefse Bakeri & Gifts

Jacobs Lefse Bakeri & Gifts

221 Central Avenue, Osakis, MN 56360

A must-stop when we’re in Osakis. Their cookies are our absolute favorite, and it’s the perfect place to grab a sweet treat or a little local gift.
