I have and am using this venue for an event. They are an awesome place to plan a party of any kind. Their seating area is beautiful. Great drinks and great food. I highly recommend. read more

This place is so good! I would come here for pizza any day! Such a wonderful atmosphere and people! I genuinely love the people who work here and every time I have been here has been a wonderful experience! Sometimes it can get a bit busy and a little chaotic but they do everything in their power to make you feel special. Every time I crave pizza and amazing drinks I come here! I highly suggest the Antonio pizza! read more

I had a great anchovy pizza there last week but today when I returned to get same thing it was the worst I ever had! Pizza was made THEN anchovies were added just as served. I politely complained and was given total grief and crap from manager. I'm very unhappy. You do not put the anchovy on after pizza is made and give the customer crap for saying so. They even inflated my bill. Stay away from this place. read more

This place is an absolute gem. A true foodie spot in New Richmond - great food, spirits and the pizza is a must! Service is fantastic and with a group of people who not enjoy what they serve but the mission of the owners. Very cool to experience it. Our tour guide Steve, was awesome as well. We will most certainly be back. read more

Finally we made it out to our neighbor's distillery. It's a long drive for us, and so it is for the founder who has to travel over an hour for work everyday. He is an avid biker, so he shared that he loves biking 60 miles to work. Good attitude! You can just see the passion and love for his business all over this establishment that's been around for 15 years. They are one of the first distillery in MN/WI area and now considered the master in this craft. Have a strong cocktail here for only $6. The room that you first walk in is rather tiny but they have a good size patio. I heard their future plans include a larger cocktail room. For now, the expansion is focused on distribution and whisky making. Join the one hour tour for $7 and you won't regret it. The story on how this business persists and evolves with times are impressive. The tour guide Steve is hilarious and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves here. The spirit sampling was fun and the workers are super friendly and chill. Our favorite is their gin and bourbon. Their ingredients are sourced locally. For a craft distillery, achieving consistency in every bottle is key and I am proud to hear that they strive for that perfection in every batch. Kudos to a successful family owned business! read more

The new cocktail lounge and event center is just what this area needed. Custom masonry, wood-fire pizza oven, cozy yet modern. Service was outstanding!!! Thank you team 45 Parallel. The four in my party each ordered a different custom cocktail featuring their liquor. We all loved our choices. I had the bourbon, lemon, honey. Yum. We shared two pizzas mushrooms on one( my fave) fully loaded on the other (guys fave). Head out and try it for yourself. The investment of a trip to rural WI will be a great surprise for you. Btw: they very conscientious of COVID guidelines, safe and clean. read more

I don't know where to start...great atmosphere, excellent staff, food is truly too good to even describe! But be sure to get a pretzel...omgosh...delicious. I live out of state and always try to bring some home. And the drinks are so unique, I love trying something new. Don't miss this dining and beverage gem in New Richmond (also Stillwater)...well worth it! read more

This place is amazing! The event coordinator Lindsay and the bartenders Emily and Tucker made sure the concert was a great success and everyone was having a great time! read more

Fun place for craft cocktails and pizza. Staff is very friendly and helpful. A must see if visiting New Richmond.

The distillery has been in business for a bit. The new tasting and bistro area opened recently with a amazing venue. The location will be a must-go during summer months without door space, aircraft style open air and event space. The cocktails made by craftspeople were great using there house made varieties. read more

My wife and I visited 45th Parallel Distillery on Saturday, Oct. 14, for a one o'clock tour and tasting. We really had a great experience throughout the visit. Tobias was our tour guide and was very intimately familiar with the history of 45th Parallel, plus he had an incredible knowledge of the distilling process and the history of distilled spirits in the United States. It was like a mini-class on all things relating to distilled spirits. The comprehensive tour last a bit over and hour, and then we sat down in their lovely bar area to taste some of the wares. We tasted literally everything that 45th makes, and all was good. We ordered the upgraded cocktail option for my wife, and she got 3 tasty cocktails as part of her tasting; delicious. After the tour ended we stuck around and had a pizza and salad. Both were exceptional. The restaurant is headed up by the fellow that used to own and operate Toast Wine Bar in the North Loop of Minneapolis; a favorite haunt of many Minneapolis foodies. We felt like we were back at Toast, with a delicious wood-fired pizza. Everything came at a very reasonable price and the entire experience took up most of our afternoon. The space is impressive and the story behind it all is even more impressive. Driving from downtown Minneapolis, it took about 50 minutes. Really fun day! read more

Great Farmers Market on Sundays during summer! Awesome place and great food! Always fun to meet up w friends!

Cher and I spent an absolutely beautiful day on the bike beginning with a tour/tasting at The 45th Parallel Distillery in New Richmond. The tour of their small batch distillery was educational and super fun led by Steve Hartman. I highly recommend visiting this place if you find pleasure in vodka or whiskey! Tonight I am very much enjoying their 4 year aged bourbon - locally sourced and a very good sip! read more

Best spirits in New Richmond! Great service and atmosphere.

Went on the distillery tour with three friends. It was a fun way to spend a late afternoon! They were serving up cocktails before the tour, including Old Fashioneds, Manhattans, and martinis. It was fun to see the facility and learn about their locally-sourced ingredients, and how all the spirits are made. It's great to see people who are passionate about what they do. We enjoyed getting to sample all the different things they make. We all bought at least one full-sized bottle of something we're excited to dig into. :) I am super stoked about my Orangecello! It's better than any other one I've ever tasted. read more

Tobias was so knowledgeable and friendly. Clearly he has a passion and loyalty for this local company. Loved the tour and learned a lot! Super great value for the money and was very fun!!! read more

So sad about this. We have been a fan of this place for a few years. Been wanting to try the pizza. Last week they were sold out (understandable). Today I called ahead to make sure kitchen was open. It was. We sat down and were given menus quickly but it took at least 15 minutes before anyone came back to take any order. The table behind us sat down after us and had their drinks before we even ordered. After ordering, we were told it would be 10 minutes before they could even give kitchen our order. It was at least 35 minutes from sitting down before we had our drinks. Drinks arrived at 6:52 and sadly it took an HOUR from then to get our pizzas along with the apps. The pizza was really good but it was unfortunate that we did not seem to have a server (we had at least 3) and it was poor workload management that it took 1 hour and 35 minutes to get the pizza. read more

We've been here before (loved it then), today we had another amazing experience here. Thursday afternoon is the slow time-just one other patron with a staff member. We got a better tour (since it was only 2 of us) than we did with the group! It was like having our private bartender! I really appreciated the private tasting party & info on the bicycling around this area! I can't wait for good weather to bike from here to Oliphant Brewing in Somerset! read more

Great vibe every time I've gone! It's definitely where my friends and I want to go for dinner and drinks when we get together! Plus they have the best bartenders! They always know how to make a drink that's just for you! read more

I just bought a pizza Old Roscoe pizza was missing the pork sausage? Not sure what happened. Would have like it better if it was made per the order. read more

The signature drinks at this bar are crazy good! Try the Bees Knees, it's the best gin drink I've ever had! The bartenders are so friendly and provide great service. Also the giant airplane door is a plus to see in motion when they open it up on sunny days. read more

This has to be my hands down favorite distillery ever. We love the tour and tasting. On our most recent tour we had Tobias as our tour guide, he's extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and really seems to have a passion for distilling. We had Alika guide us through the tasting. Alika was so much fun to talk to, he and his wife actually forage some of the ingredients for the distillery. We probably tasted 8 different spirits from a simple clean vodka to a deep, gorgeous bourbon. I highly recommend staying after the tour and tasting to have some cocktails in their new larger space (I'm particularly fond of their bloody Marys with either their aquavit or gin)! I'm really excited to go back and try the food, they have a beautiful pizza oven and will be using local grain for the dough! Speaking of local grain, they source all of their grain from farms within 10 miles of their facility. Their sustainability doesn't stop there though, grains used for the mash are sent back to local farms to feed the animals! They truly are an 11/10 place based on their employees, business practices, and of course their delicious spirits. read more

Beautiful patio with excellent drinks. Their mixologist was very personable and made tasty custom cocktails!

Love 45th! The pizza's and specialty cocktails are great! They have great indoor and outdoor seating.

Great tour for 8 of us. Tobias was very knowledgeable and attentive. He let us set up at the tasting counter since the bar was full when our tasting was finished. He made sure our food orders got in and had someone take over after his shift ended. Pizza was fantastic and ambiance lovely with a wedding in the event center adding to a festive mood. We all got bottles to take home. I will definitely be back. Easy to recommend to others. read more

The best brewery/Distillery tour I've ever been on. Delicious drinks, wonderful food. Tobias was a WONDERFUL tour guide. So knowledgeable!

Was at this place many years ago for a tour and very much enjoyed it... haven't been back in a long time and see that a lot has changed... what a nice new bar! The problem was I could not get a bartender to acknowledge me! Bar was not that busy....many open seats...I waited 10-15 minutes and not one bartender would acknowledge me...I was sitting alone without a drink...it appeared there were three bartenders... I grabbed a myself a water at a different spot and went without... I don't care what their excuse is...acknowledge a customer and say you're busy or whatever... I don't mind waiting... Good bartenders acknowledge and know what's going on at all time... I am sure somehow it is Covids fault!? This place miserably fails on this particular night... not sure I would ever drive back for that experience? I'm sure I'm a minority and it was just a bad night but to have three bartenders ignore you that really sucks! Went next-door and had a fine time with good service! read more

Yes and yes. Go here for the booze, stay for the food. Great local craft distillery with an amazing story and locally sourced grains for their vodka, whiskey etc. uou expect great cocktails, which you get, but what is unexpected is the great food and totally cool atmosphere. I love this place and really enjoy gifting bottles and merchandise to friends and family! read more

I seem to be on a alcohol based reviewing binge today. But, I feel like I should send love to 45th Parallel. First, it's local. The spirits are fermented from locally grown and processed grains. I've enjoyed the tour twice, which seems funny since the distillery is really a moderately sized warehouse. But, the tour is very personable with a lot of background on spirits and the distillery itself. The tasting room is also a great way to try out the different flavors like the very good limoncello. The makers are obviously very concerned about quality because you will learn about some of the misses along the way. read more

"Grain to glass" is their motto and I have not found another distillery that does a better job of that. Their approach to distilling produces a very clean product. The 45th Parallel Vodka is the best I've had, and their new Border Bourbon is very good as well. Tour was great, tasting was even better. The staff is very friendly, and eager to allow you to try all their products. My only complaint is the location. I wish it were located in the Cities, but our laws here in Minnesota make that unfeasible. It's a shame the Minneapolis owner was forced to locate his distillery in Wisconsin. Laws and fees in Minnesota are ridiculous. This thriving business could be located in St. Paul or Minneapolis. When are lawmakers going to realize that producing alcohol is not a reason to punish someone. It's not like their making bathtub gin during prohibition. Keep up the good work 45th! read more

The wheat whiskey is amazing. Everyone here seems to be very knowledgeable about what they do, and create a great product.

YES! This places makes like...11 or 12 amazing things. (That's all of them). The tour is $5, is extremely brief, and then you get to try everything. You can also purchase a cocktail to sip on during the tour for $5-$7. So dang good. Their bourbon is super solid too, fyi. read more

Fun afternoon! Bought this because I had a groupon, but would go without it. It's a small place, but really easy to find. We took the hour or so tour, had our 10 tastings and a great time. We learned all about spirits we had never tried, before Aquavit and Orangecello, and bought a great bottle of my personal favorite lemoncello. There isn't much room to sit at the bar, but either way a fun time to spend an afternoon! read more

Take the tour, sample the drinks, and enjoy. It's a nice little destination kind of trip, but just make sure not to topple too heartily. They always have something interesting in the works. On our tour they talked about developing their own apple pie drink (I grew up in Wisco, and *apple pie* is a euphemism for homemade beverage made with apples, cinnamon and grain alcohol), and I can see from earlier reviews that dill gin and limoncello are also on the tasting table. In addition to their fantastic regular line up! Unfortunately, there's not too much else happening in this town, so I would recommend heading back up to Hudson for some more dining/scenic fun. read more

This place was just a distillery until last fall when they opened a full bar and restaurant and really hit it out of the park. The pizza is phenomenal and we also had their pretzel which is hand made right there and it was fantastic. Drinks were very good and the staff is very friendly and service oriented. I'll go back for sure. read more

The pizza is to die for!!! The drinks are good but the service is so poor. They need to get this figured out otherwise people will start figuring this out and stop going! read more

Great drinks. The service on the other hand, greatly lacking. Lots of people behind the bar but not tending to the empty glasses. Isn't that part of the job description? read more

Thank you for a great tour and tasting. Our guide was funny and charismatic. Cocktail menu was good and product even better. read more
