Incredibly politically motivated atmosphere, even the bartender joined in ridiculing me to join her regulars in their speech. Lame vibe, uncaring bartenders, and regulars that when speaking to feel like sitting on a pile of vomit. read more

This was my favorite bar in the area. Just an overall amazing experience. Great atmosphere with plenty of seating. Prices were fair and the service was outstanding. Will be back every time in town read more

Literally go anywhere else. The bartenders refuse to serve women when they are busy and then get an attitude... Not my first time in there so they know I am a paying customer and chose to ignore me for higher paying customers. Food is mediocre bar food. I wish I had anything nice to say about the service. A fight broke out behind me and my chair was bumped into and they didn't kick anybody out they tried to calm them down but they did not calm down they kept talking smack. Not a good atmosphere. The managers seem nice and tried to help me but they couldn't take my order. read more

Been here twice. The first it was the middle of the week, it was dead even at 10pm, and the its downtown prices, ouch. Second time was WILD!!! Customers drunkenly dancing on some poles, people serving free shots standing on the bar, just wild! The energy was crazy and chaotic, an extroverts dream, everyone talks to anyone. The only con is that the bar gets busy the bartenders tend to serve their tipping regulars first so it takes forever to get a drink, but it's understandable. If you're in a pinch they have servers with trays of drinks walking around. The bathroom the first time was clean, but the second time with all the people it was chaos. I would definitely come back when there's events in town, such a good time. read more

We were visiting from Chicago and arrived late. Shoutout to the bouncer, Connor, who was super accommodating and let us in even though it was pretty late. We were in and out - got served quickly and it was a great place to end the night. Drinks were cheap and music was good! read more

Let me start off by saying it's free entry it is also a nice place and the music is good but the customer service is super bad. The bartenders are super rude and supervisors don't care. Personally I'm a bartender too I understand you can get stressed but that's just the worst service I've gotten. read more

bouncer and bar manager violated my ADA rights by denying my service dog access to the bar and restricting access to patio dinning area. The ADA specifically states in a restaurant, a service animal must be allowed to accompany the person with a disability in all areas that are open to other patrons. The manager not only stood solid in his convictions despite me attempting to educate him so as to avoid liability, legal action, or complaint under depart of justice. he went further by calling me a Karen, and making a slew of derogatory statement. the bounce and manager refused to give their names but I recorded it & will be following up with owner, and DOJ. Dog was identified clearly with service dog markings and when I advised the tasks he performs, the manager proceeded to say I have no business being out with my medical conditions. manager is discriminatory abelist read more

Sneaky Pete's - Manager went out of his way to say derogatory abelist things. He clearly needs to be educated on ADA rights & customer service. - Dance Clubs Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

I went to Sneaky Pete's on Saturday with my friend. As I was standing up, one of the workers ran into me. I didn't see him, but I apologized. He replied an angry sentence back to me, and when I apologized again, he grabbed me by the neck and put me in a chokehold and carried me out of the bar. I was extremely confused on why he reacted like this and used such extreme physical force for what seemed like such a minor encounter. If this is typical for how staff treat customers, I would not recommend Sneaky Pete's to anyone. read more

This is a great spot to watch games on jumbo screens while dining. Some of the best bar food in downtown Minneapolis. Our waitress was friendly and made sure that we had everything we needed. The menu has a really diverse selection of food items. The waffles fries and seasoned sour cream are amazing. The owners are very nice and always make you feel welcome. read more

Really fun spot with really fun bartenders. The negative reviews were probably people that couldn't handle their liquor. 10/10 go here if you're in the area! read more

Don't ever spend a Friday Night here the DJ has no patience and No clue what he is doing. What a waste of a good hustle and flow I had, too many haters not enough love and support shit could have been of the hook instead it was weak as fuck. read more

Tried out this place after a Twins game because it was the only "sports bar" showing on yelp. It was a big space with maybe five people in it. The two bartenders working were totally uninterested in helping anyone other than the locals who must frequent the place. I had a couple drinks, paid, and left. It was unspectacular to say the least. Difficult to get a drink. Waitresses weren't friendly. Place had more of a strip club vibe than a sports bar. Hard pass. read more

If I could give this place a 0 stars I would. After reading the other one-star reviews it's obvious they let men do what ever they want to woman. The second a woman does anything to man (throw a drink at a man) they are so quick to kick the woman out after being sexually harassed. The bartender that is always outside on the weekends refused to serve me and my girls because guys kept buying us drinks, and claimed that we were "harassing" men all because men would come up to us and buy us drinks. We go there to mingle, dance and drink...Isn't that the whole point of going to a bar?. If you guys don't want business then we will take our money and time else where. The owner should feel ashamed for treating their customers poorly, by hiring no good bartenders/bouncers. read more

The restroom was not clean. I had a cranberry vodka that was not very good. Music was good. There is a large patio out back. It was crowded which was a good thing. read more

Sneaky Pete's - They serve white claw #hotgirlsummer - Dance Clubs Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Not good for a work event. This is a dance club at night and the bar shows signs of this during the day. Bathroom is gross and dark , drinks are the average sports bar, nothing special here. No cocktail menu. Service is average. read more

One word: overcrowded. Some numbers at a glance: $2 coat checks, $3 door cover, $4 Bud Lights, and one guy who was knocked out cold outside after partying too hard here that some passerbys thought he was dead (it was even more convincing afterwards when the paramedics strapped him to a gurney and covered him up completely). Yes, there are a lot of douchebags here, but usually you get to pick who you talk to. Great vibe at this bar though. Lots of girls, lots of energy. Good mix of classics and top 40 pop music. They give away free T-shirts and mouthful shots at the bar when the announcement comes on. I didn't expect Girls Gone Wild (great conversation starter) to be showing on the TVs here. Oh, and did I mention the hottest bartender I've seen in years was working downstairs? Totally awesome. But, still overcrowded. Could barely find a place to stand inside here. They know this is a fire hazard right? Anyways, being overcrowded killed the experience for me. Better luck next time I guess. read more

I'm sorry but this place is a major SAUSAGE FEST and GROSS! Parts of the bar smelled like a giant nasty foot was on top of your nose and there were 40 year old women with mom jeans grinding on pools mixed in with the awkward 20 something guys...very weird! The downstairs was showing UFC on every single TV side by side which was super tacky so of course there were meat heads crowded around various places watching. There were some women but I think they must have been pretending to enjoy being there...I NEVER want to come back here. My guy friend said, "if you see skanky looking women serving shitty beer from troughs you know it's gotta be bad!" read more

WARNING TO ALL WOMEN!!!! This is a dangerous place, they allow women in and not any man that could protect the women that go here. I was let in to this club and my husband was told to go to the back of the line and once he made it to the front they told him he couldn't come in. Before I realized what had happened I was roofie by someone. My husband watched from the front for me to come out. I have no recollection of what happened that night. Thank god my husband was at the front door waiting for me to come out. He told me that I was unable to walk or even speak correctly. He carried me to our vehicle so he could rush me to the hospital. We were pulled over by the state police and he was taken to jail and I was sent to the hospital in an ambulance. When I woke up I had no idea where I was or how I got there. This club lures women in, hires them as waitresses and promises them that they can make lots of money being a stripper on the other side of this club dreamgirls. Please stay far away from this place women. I have filled a police report and an investigation is underway. read more

We had a great time. My wife and I don't get out much due to the kids. We ended up here two nights back to back. Wednesday and Thursday night. I think both of us could have done a 3rd night but we changed hotels so we could stay at one of the casinos. It's funny because they don't really have a good selection of drinks. Some of the people with us went through 2 or 3 selections before they finally said "Yes, we have that". But yet we stayed for hours, drank all evening and laughed our a** off. Both nights the waitresses were fantastic, even as busy as it got, we never really ran dry. As the night progressed, and the "Stripper Poles" became easier for lot's of ladies (and some guys unfortunately) So entertaining. Laughed so hard at times. I don't know, some of these reviews have been pretty rough on the place but I can tell you that we had an awesome time. My wife danced the night away while I drank the night away. Thank goodness the hotel was only 2 blocks away. read more

I called this place and asked if they were showing the boxing match tonight. The person on the phone said yes. I then asked if they were showing the specific boxing match and named the boxers, the employee said yes with an attitude. I show up to watch the fight and ask the bouncer if they were showing it, he responds that they should be. I walk in and there's not a boxing match on the tv. I ask the manager and was told that they never show boxing. I didn't stay long, but the place was dead on a Saturday night. Was dirty and dingy. I don't plan on going back ever. read more

Came here with my friend one night. Great happy hour prices, this was a Thursday or Friday night about 1-2 weeks ago. We had fun, it wasn't packed the music was nice, there are 2 dance poles on the dance floor which brought much fun! I'm learning MN isn't diverse AT ALL. (I'll get used to it, I'm from Houston Texas & she's from California so we're used to diversity for sure!) The customers were 21 and up it seemed! We left "Last Call" next door because their clientele seemed a little young i posted a review on them as well. read more

Owner/bartenders were playing pulltabs after patrons lost hundreds of dollars and denied extending their tabs after hours of doing so.

I went to Sneaky's on a Vikings Sunday and got the breakfast buffet, which was pretty good. They had eggs, potatoes, sausage and bacon. A little high for what they had at 9 bucks. But a good suck up of grease. The servers were FANTASTIC and they kept the 6 dollar beers (3 hours for all you can drink) going until noon. They don't serve beer until 10 though, which they should advertise because I could have had an extra hour of sleep before beer was available. The food was good and I had a lot of laughs with a friend and would for sure make it again. read more

I absolutely LOVE STINKY PETES. It's so classy (not). It's okay though it was a blast. Go on a Saturday night and you can dance it was a blast. SUPER EXPENSIVE DRINKS. someone offered me coke in the bathroom. The bar tender let me keep my left overs by her. read more

Jake Stone is the most personable bartender I've ever met. From my homeland of Tampa florida!!!!!! Love it here in Minneapolis! Will be back! read more

Located in the heart of Downtown Minneapolis.. I've been coming here since day 1 when they opened.. Always a good time at night .. They even bring out the poles later in the night, for what else, POLE DANCING.. Food is always fresh, and fast.. The bartenders and servers are extremely HOT!! You've been warned you married couples.. Outside smoking patio with heat , and music.. You can't go wrong coming here.. No baggy clothes or Jerseys are allowed and some nights there is a cover.. The Dj is killing the beats and the atmosphere after 11.pm is the show.. So don't miss this spot.. Can't miss Sneaky Petes , it's right on the light rail.. Have a blast when you come.. I always do read more

Sneaky Pete's - Good bar - Dance Clubs Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Always walked by it but never gone in before (as outside it had a dark goth look to it). But I went here two weeks ago for drinks with a different set of coworkers. Unfortunately we got there after happy hour. Inside surprised me since I expected warehouse-y concrete floors and black walls, BUT it turned out to be an old style saloon with wooden plank floors and decorated with Route 66 style signs and biker ads. Not bad. When we got there there wasn't much of a crowd but the doorman told us 'dancing' started at 9:30. I knew this was a club too so I thought 'okay'... Later I found out this place had pole dancers (non-nude?) when I recognized the poles and put the 'dancing' together. The waitress was super friendly and interested and she had a trainee with her who was also interested and attentive. They checked back with us multiple times for drinks and food orders through the couple hours we stayed. They were also very engaging and we had good fun interacting with them. I was confused and surprised when they asked to hold one of our cards (I think only the bar area was open and we had been able to get a table), but at the end of the night it was returned without any mishap. We ended up getting some shots, mixed drinks, beers (Bluemoon & Heineken). My buddy also ordered the nachos with beef. Pretty decent. It had a solidly good taste and was topped with jalapenos, olives, black beans, salsa, and sour cream! Slightly better than your chain restaurant version. At the end I saw the tab and it was EXTREMELY reasonable for the 2.5 rounds of drinks we had and food (~$37 IIRC). A good spot to just go for cheap drinks and to relax. Should've tried it out before now. Likely one day I'll be back for the 'dancing' and night club experience. read more

Awesome place, amazing staff and super friendly. Head of security James went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having fun and being safe. Always a great place to spend a night out in Downtown Minneapolis!! read more

Danced my booty off until we got kicked out (by kicked out I mean the bouncer nicely while he was dancing too lol asked us to pls leave). Had a fantastic time here. The Dj, the bouncers, the bartenders, everyone there helped me locate my phone after I lost it. Immaculate vibes here. 10/10 would throw it back here again. read more

Sneaky Pete's was everything it was advertised to be in downtown Minneapolis. Strong sports bar vibe, cheap drinks, and great crowd watching. Came here on a Saturday night and watched the place fill up to capacity. Dancing, drinking, and stripper pole use in full effect, servers were attentive and drinks were good. Fast forward 24 hours to Sunday night and the place was practically empty even after a T-Wolves game. Same DJ on Sunday night played nearly the same tracks (in the same order) as the night prior. Food was solid bar fare. Will definitely check it out again when I get back to Minneapolis. read more

Food and service is good. Could use a big screen tv for sporting events but they make up for it with many tv's with lots of views. Close enough to target center to walk as well as downtown read more

Great buffalo wings, try em out and thank me later but the kitchen closes at like 10 so get there early.

Great atmosphere on a Friday and a very diverse crowd...noticed quite a few cat fights, but their staff was on top of it immediately. Good drinks and good music. Pretty clean establishment. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was a cover charge for men considering 80% of the crowd was men. Other than that I enjoyed myself. Love the amount of space that they have read more

Well, I once said that I would never go into a bar that had more douche bags than the Drink..I was wrong. Apparently when Drink is full, they all pile out to Sneaky Pete's. It was terrifying when I looked around and realized that all the guys there were your average Minnesota college guys with their striped collared shirts and backwards caps drinking Mich Golden...Really? Thats all you got? I came here with some girlfriends, and have never been approached by that many drunk guys in an hour setting. It was pretty disgusting. For real though, next time a you and your "guys" decide to go out in a group together, maybe a few of you shoud opt for differnet outfit..It may set you apart from the rest, I doubt it though. If you work here, don't even comment, the place is shit and the only reason why you are sticking up for the place is because it pays you to. Come on now, you're just as shitty as the bar itself and your work related opinion doesn't matter to anyone! read more

So, I work in downtown Minneapolis, and wanted to stop with a coworker for a drink after work, so we went into Sneaky Petes. Obviously, they do not allow business people in this bar (we were wearing suit jackets and had our laptop work bags), because from beginning to end we were CRUCIFIED by the staff of this establishment. First, they insisted they search both our laptop bags prior to entry (the TSA at the airport is more friendly, btw). They could not articulate what they were searching for, but I guess they did not find it, because we were allowed in. Then, it took 20 minutes for the ONLY TWO CUSTOMERS AT THE BAR to get waited on for a beer. Nice. Then what did we get? Attitude from the bartender for ordering 2 beers. Finally, a bouncer comes up to us and threatens to "throw our bags into the garbage" for no reason, and when we protest, he tells us "we deserve it for bringing competing bar flyers into his bar". Thanks, douche. I have a real job, not pushing bar flyers into people's faces on the street corner i.e. Vegas style. We got up and left. No wonder no one was in this bar at 5:30pm on a Thursday summer night. Go someplace fun, not this dump. read more

This bar was ok. I had to stand up almost the whole time because there wasn't much seating in the area we were in. It's not a spot I would normally pick but my friends had fun here. It was casual and there was no cover for women, but the men had to pay $5, so that was a bonus for me! Also, it's located downtown in a busy area with lots of bars and restaurants. After they closed we were able to walk somewhere else to hang out. read more

Are you a bro that likes to chug $4 bud lights and other shitty beer? Is your closet filled with bro tanks and bro tanks? Do you like your collars popped? Do you enjoy dancing to crappy remixes of pop songs? If you've said yes to any of aforementioned questions, then this is definitely the place for you! Now don't get me wrong, because I love broing out once in a while, but dayum, where dem guuurls at? Cause all I see is sausages up in hur. Probably the most aptly named bar I've been to in a while. read more

...I wish I could give this place zero stars... I went here with a group on a Saturday night. The basement area was packed with scary looking men who were all gathered around the TV sets watching a UFC fight. I have to say, I was a little worried about what might happen once the fight was over...would these men take their "roid rage" out on bystanders (me!?) if their favorite fighter didn't win? So, we wandered upstairs to the main area of the bar. It was packed to maximum capacity (for some reason?) mainly with 20-something year old boys in polo shirts. There were a lot of girls dancing around some stripper poles - and well - not to be mean here - but combining their dancing skills with their fashion sense...it literally made me throw up in my mouth a little. The bartenders were all female and were less interested in serving my group some beer and more interested in climbing on top of the bar to shoot shots of sticky booze into young men's mouths. Now, I have to say something about the smell of this place. It smelled like a mixture of vomit, feet, sweat, stale beer, and desperation (if desperation had a scent). Basically, if you want to revisit your college frat house days - check out Sneaky Pete's! read more

I have to agree, that my rating still stands as well. Especially when there are reviews like Britt T's that are obviously from someone who works there. Sorry, but who would be going there with clients from work for lunch, and going there to party at night? I would think that would attract 2 different types of people. Fake reviews = not cool. Now I think the place is even more douchey! On the plus side, I was downtown a few Saturdays ago, and wasn't having the best time, but then I walked by Sneaky Pete's and I had the best laugh of the night! read more
