There was a stench lingering about tho that made enjoying the beer difficult & the idea of food completely off-putting. (A sewage-type odor that was strongest inside but wafted out as well.) When paired with dog owner's that have no awareness of their pet (legit dropped 2 piles within a foot of our table & it was still there when we left.) The staff were very friendly & the outdoor seating was lovely. I wouldn't make a special trip out to drink here but would pop in if staying nearby

Even the ones I find usually have few choices to eat from and the food isn't that good. That's why I absolutely loved my visit to block North. It's something that could've been located in my own neighborhood in Saint Paul. Starting with the beer, they have an excellent selection of styles. I chose the Saison, which is far less common in Minnesota breweries than I would like. It was excellent. For lunch, I chose the ratatouille and added shrimp. They were served with the vegetable of the day, green beans. The serving size was enormous which can also be inversely related to quality, but not here. The green beans were cooked and seasoned to perfection. The ratatouille was lovely with chunks of eggplant and zucchini plus a mushroom on the side. This meal was just delightful. I was by myself, so I sat out the bar. The bartender was friendly, but not overbearing. There were many other items on the menu I would've loved to have tried. I will definitely stop here again in the future.

Husband is a blue moon fan, and he said the Loony Bavarian was even better! Next time he's going to order a crawler of it to take home :). I love that they let you taste things for free- I tried their plain seltzer, to see if I might want to get it in the future, and it was great!
