In the spot-on words of its owners, "If you haven’t been to the Black Forest Inn, you haven’t been to Minneapolis." Renowned since its 1965 opening for its hearty German cuisine, extensive beer list and outdoor beer garden, this Minneapolis hot spot is not to be missed. The cozy tavern will warm you after a day in the Minnesota cold, and the enchanting vine-enclosed courtyard overflows with friendly beer lovers all summer long. Try the bratwurst, the potato pancakes with applesauce and sour cream, or recommended main dishes such as spatzle, wiener schnitzel and sauerbraten. Live music weekend nights. Full bar. Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner daily.
