Betsy & Tye
Things To Do
St Paul Farmers Market
Tye included the Saint Paul Farmer's Market as part of our engagement day. Truly special in any season, check out Salty Tart nearby for amazing coffee, scones and brunch.
Claddagh Coffee
Tye's favorite coffee roaster in town. They also operate a smaller coffee shop named Wee Claddagh up the hill on Selby Ave.
The Buttered Tin
Amazing brunch. If the line is too long, walk to the Farmer's Market nearby and eat at Salty Tart!
Summit Avenue
Summit Ave hosts one of the longest stretches of Victorian mansions in the US. Walk or bike and gawk at some big beautiful houses.
Como Park Zoo & Conservatory
Amazing free zoo with lots of critters. Great place to bring the little ones.
Minnesota Children's Museum
Another great spot for the young ones, right in downtown Saint Paul.
Revival
Amazing fried chicken and cocktails right in our neighborhood.
Brasa Premium Rotisserie
Southern comfort food served family style. A great place for lunch/dinner shared amongst a group.
Punch Pizza Grand Avenue
Famous wood-fired Neapolitan style pizza, served lightning fast. One of the best pizzas in town, right in our neighborhood.
Keg and Case Market
Stunning new market, food hall, and brewery built on the grounds of the old Schmidt brewery near downtown Saint Paul.
Barrel Theory Beer Company
Great new brewery in Saint Paul, specializing in IPAs and hoppy beers. A new favorite.
French Meadow Bakery & Café
A great brunch/lunch for people looking for healthier options. Big salads and great breakfast options. Locations in Saint Paul and Minneapolis.
Surly Brewing Co.
The mecca for beer enthusiasts. Great beers and food on offer in an amazing indoor/outdoor space.
Sea Salt Eatery and Minnehaha Falls
Sea Salt is an amazing outdoor eatery in a Minneapolis park, specializing in seafood and fish tacos. Adjacent to the beautiful Minnehaha Falls, it's a great place to eat and explore the nearby park.
Stone Arch Bridge
One of the most beautiful views in Minneapolis. Fun to walk or bike across in any season. Betsy and Tye stopped here on their engagement day!
Mill City Museum
Amazing interactive museum that tells the story of Minneapolis' long running history as a mill town. More exciting than it sounds and built on the banks of the beautiful Mississippi River.
Minneapolis Lakes!
Minneapolis' interconnected chain of five lakes is a beautiful place to walk, run, or bike. You can also rent kayaks or paddleboats and explore from the water!
Quang Restaurant
In a city filled with amazing Vietnamese restaurants, this one is our favorite. If you need a Saint Paul option, iPho on University Ave is great as well.
A Baker's Wife's Pastry Shop
These donuts aren't fancy, but pound for pound they're the best ones in the Twin Cities. Walk next door to the Angry Catfish bike shop/coffee shop for some amazing coffee with your donuts.
Marvel Bar
These are the best cocktails in town, served in a speakeasy fashion. Spendy, but a fun way to start a night in downtown Minneapolis.
Hola Arepa
For affordable cocktails and great Venezuelan inspired food, this place comes highly recommended. In Uptown Minneapolis.
Sebastian Joe's Ice Cream Cafe
Our favorite ice cream in the Twin Cities and featured in our engagement photos. If in Saint Paul, Izzy's ice cream on Marshall Ave is a close second.
World Street Kitchen
Great casual eatery in Uptown Minneapolis. The ice cream next door at Milkjam Creamery is a great way to finish this off.
Minneapolis Institute of Art
Amazing museum, great for exploring on a rainy (or sunny) day.
