Minneapolis is home to a lot of things. Two of these things and arguably the most important, are great food and the University of Minnesota. Here are 20 of the best things to eat in Minneapolis, and where to get them. What are you waiting for? Eat up.
The campus classic, Annie’s never disappoints. Go for a huge malt in the flavor of your choice, or for a classic juicy burger on the patio. Or both.
Purple Onion (or Ponion) is a cafe and popular study spot, but also serves good food, most notably, my favorite is the french toast.
This place is like a burrito bowl for Himalayan food. Their chicken tikka masala is fantastic, served over rice with any of your favorite vegetables and sauces. Get some feta naan as well if you want it to be a perfect meal.
I can not go to Wally’s without ordering all of these things. However, Wally’s is amazing and has a huge menu, so it’s hard to go wrong.
The campus classic. So dignified and simple.
MyBurger has great burgers, even better fries, and the special sauce options take the whole thing to the next level.
You know you want one right now.
Certified by my vegan roommate, their vegan pho is apparently one of the best vegan options on campus.
Als’s–go for the experience–leave filled up with tasty pancakes.
Good lord of food, I still dream about this. It’s sensational.
No one seems to realize that Qdoba makes breakfast burritos that are cheap and delicious and put Chipotle to shame (yes, I said it).
A lesser known gem, Lands End is tucked down the alley by Shuang Cheng, and they serve killer pasties. Chicken pepper jack is my favorite, but they have tons of good ones.
Not a food item, but with the jellies you’re chewing so it counts. This is the best possible summer drink I can think of.
Ahhh, Shuang Cheng, the epitome of college dining. Fast, cheap, and so freaking delicious. I haven’t had anything bad there yet, and the portions are huge.
There are many pizza places on campus, but only one lets you create exactly what you want with approximately a million combination options.
Afro Deli, now in it’s new and much more convenient location, serves incredible gyros, sandwiches, and sides. It’s a campus staple.
Cane’s is king. Seriously, those who have never experienced the majesty are missing out so bad.
Little Szechuan seems to make anything good. So, whatever Chinese food you like is probably a safe bet to order here.
This newer spot is a welcome break from the more typical pizza places and Asian restaurants in the area, and serves awesome and original tacos right in the heart of Stadium Village.
This stop is farther off campus, but worth the journey. Dive out to uptown any Tuesday night for huge, topping loaded burgers, with a side, for only $5. No regrets.
