Things To Do
Minnehaha Falls
The Minnehaha park is really big with lots of cool trails to follow. There is a waterfall in the park that freezes over in the winter! A very peaceful place to spend an afternoon.
Minnesota Landscape Arboretum - Advance Reservations/Tickets Required
The arboretum is a beautiful place to visit, whether it is sunny or raining. Tickets are 15$ a person but there is plenty to see!
Como Park Zoo & Conservatory
Free zoo and conservatory. The conservatory is very beautiful!
Paisley Park
Prince's former home, now a museum. See Prince's various studios, offices, clothes, guitars, pianos, and stage props. If you have the time, this is a very cool place to go.
Blue Door Pub Longfellow
This restaurant has unique juicy lucys (burgers stuffed with cheese, yum!). Try their latin kisses. They are super delicious!
Pizzeria Lola
This is some of the best pizza in Minnesota. They might only do takeout with the pandemic going on, but it is worth it! You can even try their sister restaurant, Young Joni, also in Minneapolis. Patrick's favorite pizza is the Hawaii Pie-O. Makala's favorite is the Iowan. La Creme is a delicious classic.
Bravis Modern Street Food
If street tacos are what you crave, this is THE place to go (try the birria tacos!). It may be far from the cities but it is well worth it. Maybe stop by for a bite before the wedding! They also have pineapple bowls and some of the best horchata. A must eat.
Origami Restaurant
Near some of Minneapolis' night life, you can grab some sushi and cocktails. From sashimi and nigiri to specialties rolls, this place is pretty great!
Mall of America
Biggest mall in the United States. Not all too different from other malls. There is an amusement park in the center and an aquarium in the basement. There are also several restaurants to choose from if you want a quick bite before your flight!
