I'm a fan of all restaurants owned by blue plate. This one has always delivered and our breakfast was great. Service was so nice and friendly without being baloney. I saw people ordering beer flights and Bloody Marys so the bar looks good. I stuck with coffee as it was a Tuesday. Egg sandwich was great and my friend had a frittata. Best touch, the colab with cry baby Craig's. Best MN based hot sauce IMO. read more

This place was great! There was great seating and it wasn't too loud, in out booth we felt very separate and able to converse with no difficulty. A great beer selection and cocktails that looked delicious but the server didn't seem to know very much about either. The brussel sprouts were my favorite part, you have to try them if you come here. I got the bacon truffle burger with no bacon and the impossible patty substituted and it was quite tasty but nothing very special to be honest, most restaurants could replicate it so I thought it was a bit overpriced. I got the sweet potato fries with it which were delicious and came with an amazing chipotle aioli but they forgot to bring them out and I had to remind the serve about them. Overall, service and ambiance were great. We were checked in on just enough and felt very comfortable. The food was between good and great, some things were incredible and some weren't too special but still tasty. I would come back here but not on my own dime. read more

Unfortunately a day after my visit The Lowery announced the are closing. Showed up 5:30 to meet friends. Arrived in time for HH. Had to try "martini" mashed (meh) Also got a couple oysters Rockefeller (small). Drinks the best. Sliders and some other happy hour specials around the table. Go for the drinks and the vibe. Sorry to see another place go on Hennepin. (RIP Liquor Lyles. ) read more

The Lowry is a great restaurant choice when you visit uptown. They have a delicious brunch with several brunch cocktail options. I loved my bacon, lettuce, tomato, avacado sandwich and the bread was great. The side of chips was pretty good, but needed some more seasoning. The bloody mary was very tasty. I love that they have a parking lot- it's such a rare find in uptown! Our server was attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is cute and inviting. There is plenty of space for various size groups of people. The prices are a little steep, but at least the food is delicious Overall, I look forward to coming back! read more

I've been to The Lowry quite a few times over there years and love their food. I like that they have lots of different seating options and plenty of parking for a city restaurant. My boyfriend and I came in today for some brunch and had such a hard time trying to pick what we wanted. There's always great options on their menu, they seem to have something for everyone! I ordered the Croque Madam. My server forgot to ask what side I wanted so I ended up with the side salad which was disappointing. They seem to just dress it with olive oil so it was pretty bland. The croque madam was really good but I wish the béchamel sauce was over the whole sandwich and not just the one side. It was a bummer having it only on part of it. I feel like every time I come here the service isn't the best but the food is good enough to keep me coming back. read more

The Lowry is an all time fave for me. I used to live a few blocks away for many years. Breakfast meetings for business. A favorite neighbor or 2. You name it. Today invited son Brandon for an early lunch and biz. We took advantage of the shrimp tacos at the bar. Believe it or not, it was not much more than two meals at Mac D's. Their breakfast and their beverages are awesome. Think you'll dig it too. read more

I really enjoyed the Lowry! I've been before and didn't like the chilaquiles but today I wanted one of everything on the menu! The calamari was great and I appreciated that it was served with two dipping sauces, although the aioli is my favorite. I don't think the shrimp is necessary but we ate it all. The grilled steak salad was really good, all the flavors were well balanced. read more

Good food and great service. And open until 11:00 PM on a Saturday which is definitely rare these days! Shout out to Lxi (according to our ticket) who was an absolute ROCKSTAR, and so nice to us. It made our day. We went after a concert on Saturday. The food was good and the portions left everyone but me with food to bring home. I had the burger which had tasty bacon and tons of onion strings on it, and came with decent house made chips. Others had the fish and chips, grilled cheese and Nashville hot chicken. All were good. The beer list is pretty good as well. Prices are maybe a touch above similar, but they have some more creative entrees as well. read more

This was my second time visiting the Lowry in person! The first time was okay for their happy hour. I got a lot of crackers with my oysters which I thought was strange. This time I came here with my girlfriend for brunch. I like that they have a lot of parking and that it's within walking distance of where I live. The menu is large and has options for every palate. I ordered the French chicken stack with a side of pancakes. The food itself was amazing and I would come back again just for the food. The service wasn't bad, but I thought that the waiter could have been more attentive. Overall I had a good experience! read more

Loved my per se hibiscus margarita (NA)! The buffalo cauliflower was really good too. My fiancé loved his wings and drinks as well.

Would deff return! read more

Vibes: Fun, family friendly, casual, brunch Food: Fish tacos with rice and beans. You get your moneys worth as they put a good amount of fish in each taco! Also ordered the mimosa flight which was the perfect Prosecco + juice ratio. Cost: $$ Experience: Went here for brunch with my family and a few family friends. They were able to accommodate a larger group. Our server was so kind and patient. read more

Went here for a quick bite before an event! Made this known to our server and she was fantastic with the speed. Everything is very fairly priced for the portion sizes - big kudos. We had the cheese curds and truffle fries - both were amazing! Like a really perfect. The applesauce dip for the curds was amazing, I've never had anything like this so I was very impressed. The fries were bold with truffle flavor and were not dripping in grease which is rare to find. Big kudos to the Lowry for this! I must come back and try more food :) read more

Had a great experience with a very nice server last week at the Lowry for brunch! I would give five stars for the service, but took away a star because I ordered the walleye eggs benedict and thought it was decent, but not very flavorful. The eggs were cooked perfectly though! Second, the atmosphere itself is super nice, but unfortunately given the location, there were multiple homeless people who came in and had a few back and forths with the manager. Everyone was cordial and there wasn't a true issue in the end. We were seated right next to the door, so if we were further into the restaurant this could easily be prevented from interrupting your meal, but unfortunately we were right next to it. I want to come back for their specials at the bar! Food and drink specials that look like a great deal! read more

My hubby and I stopped here, thinking it would be a great place to grab a bite to eat and were initially excited that there was a parking lot in an area where parking is usually sparse. We stopped by for early dinner on a Sunday afternoon in August and were disappointed, given our positive experiences with the Blue Plate Club restaurants in St. Paul. The service was slow and the wait staff were more interested in socializing with the regulars, and then management meeting with the staff in the middle of the seating area (instead of the closed off area where customers weren't sat). It made for an incredibly awkward experience, trying to get the attention of our server. The saving grace was the food - I got the Breakfast Burrito, and my hubby got the Steakhouse Ranch Burger. It took a bit to get our check for us to be able to head out, but we were thankful we didn't have some place to be after. read more

This one of my favorite spots, plenty of parking in the lot, and outdoor eating space available. Ambiance 4/5 Great seating inside and out, bar seating and high top booths (which I love). Festive during the Winter, low lit at night. Great leather and wood feel. Service 4/5 Ask for Miguel on Saturdays and tip him well. He's worth it. Very responsive and personable.The only time I've experienceid slow service was with a large party on a Saturday. I was actually surprised since they weren't very busy either. We all received our meals at separate times. Food/ Drinks 4/5 Reasonably priced drinks and food. The Buffalo Cauliflower is very salty w/no crispiness, I wouldn't order it again. Drinks: St Agrestis Phony Negroni $13.50 Buffalo Cauliflower $12.50 | Chicken Wings $16.95 | Sweet Potato Fries $9.95 Baja Bowl $16.95 | Chocolate Cake $ 9.95 TOTAL: 65.85 (various visits) Overall 4/5 Great spot! read more

Stopped at the Lowry because we saw it was dog friendly. Very nice patio and ample parking was seated immediately on a Friday night. We tried the devils eggs and the cheese curds both of which were quite good. The blue plate. Chicken wings were good, but nothing extraordinary the drink menu was decent with a heavy focus on vodka and gin. The only thing lacking was the service. It took quite a long time to get a waitress to our table to bring water the first round of drinks and to take our order. It felt like we were there twice as long as we needed to be just because of the wait. Overall, like the Lowry and will likely be back when in the area. read more

We ordered oysters on the half shell, the buffalo cauliflower, the fish fry, and the chicken bacon soup. The fish fry was juicy and crispy, and it came with a lot of good extras like the baked potato and the corn fritters. I would not consider it a Wisconsin fish fry, though. The bed of arugula was a choice. The oysters were so small it was barely a bite's worth, which is sad because it was $14 for an order of four. The cauliflower came out fried really well, but the sauce was pooled under the bites, not tossed on them. The soup was ok, and came with a side of cheezits which we thought was interesting. Staff was friendly and helpful, although we had to ask for hot sauce a couple times. Very cool spot and nicely decorated. read more

I ordered the Cakes,Eggs,&Links which was very good. I got my eggs fried hard no yolk- this came out great. My partner got the American breakfast sub out toast for one pancake. Cons- one pancake costing $3.99, cheap tasting coffee, the pancakes are a little dense could be more fluffy! Pros- service here is great!, food comes out fast!, they have a morning happy hour which include $6 mimosas! read more

I highly recommend trying this place! I took my granddaughter here for a little dinner date. I had the chimichurri short rib & she had the Mickey mouse pancake. I also had the strawberry something sangria. It's was all delicious our server was Heather she was fantastic. We sat out on the patio it was very nice. When we left my granddaughter said to me she was glad I brought her there & she can't wait to go back ( she is 9). We will eat & got up desert at Sebastian Joe's. read more

Good was incredible! Service was incredible! The place is so cute too. Ordered a burger and sweet potato fries, hubby had a breakfast burrito and we ordered the grilled cheese and chicken tenders kids meals for our babes. Servings were huge! The kids meals were only $8 and included fries, fresh fruit and crackers - of course I tried the kids food and it was also incredible! We also got the mimosa flight which was perfect too. Plan on paying about $20/person for adults but well worth it. We will be back! read more

I tried the Lowry after a friend suggested we come here for brunch and have the mimosa flight. The service was great, our server made sure to check on us frequently while we sat out on their patio. She also gave great recommendations on food. My friend had the cheeseburger and said it tasted average, nothing out of this world but a good quality burger if you're looking for some comfortable food. I had the Nashville chicken sandwich. I was good! Again nothing spectacular but just what you would expect from a chicken sandwich. It really was not spicy, it was more vinegary than anything else. My sandwich did have a pretty soggy bottom bun which was a little disappointing but nonetheless, a good tasting sandwich. The mimosa flights SLAP. They are really good and come in pineapple, cranberry, original and grapefruit flavors. We felt pretty buzzed after one flight. The vibe inside is very nice, there was people there having business meetings, couple out for lunch and some families. The patio is very nice as well but can get hot when in direct sun so make sure to bring a hat and shades! read more

Burger Lovers take a look! I am a regular here early in the day. Often my time clock is changed due to work with folks in other time zones. I can go to The Lowry for good food and service. Yes, I sit at the bar with its few electric outlets so I can work. Brittany is a great server who knows her folks. I generally just have a couple beverages but have recently discovered the lunchtime menu. $12 for several great entrees. I usually don't eat hamburgers/cheeseburgers out as I enjoy them rare but a) many places won't make them rare and b) hamburger outside of small shops can be suspect at best. I was willing to take a chance at The Lowery. Wow!! Best cheeseburger ever (from a restaurant). I was willing take a chance as all of their food is good. read more

I came here to meet a friend for breakfast on a weekday. The vibe here is a slightly upscale greasy spoon. It has a nice interior and the staff is friendly, very much not-diner. I had eggs, bacon, and toast. It was good, not too greasy, it seems like the meals are made with slightly better stuff than the usual grease pit. After I left, I didn't like I had a brick in my stomach. My one beef is that they did not have espresso, but that does not seem to be the vibe there. Our server was nice enough, took good care of us. My friend and I sat and talked for a couple of hours and she didn't bother us at all or hover. That was very nice. read more

Part of the Blue Plate Company, there are a few recognizable some items from other spots such as Freehouse, Longfellow Grill, Groveland Tap, etc. The Lowry really brings me back as I recall various visits here in college but hadn't been back until very recently. There is a simple reservation process that worked seamlessly and the service was very polished. Interior decorating hasn't changed much since I visited many moons ago, yet somehow still felt inviting with the oversized big booths. There is a parking lot directly connected making this a huge win considering the location on busy Hennepin. Breakfast was solid as I had a mimosa, breakfast bowl, and split the killer banana waffle with a girlfriend. Everything tasted excellent with great flavoring. Come visit! read more

Wow, I think this place was really good. It may seem pricey compared to other places but I think the quality and flavors makes it worth it. My partner and I ordered take out for pick up after work and we were really impressed. This is definitely one of my top favorite American food in Minnesota now. We didn't try any of the breakfast food though so can't comment there. Inside looks pretty inviting but because we didn't dine in, I can say much about the service. We'll looking to dining in in the near future. Food we got: Buffalo cauliflower- definitely GET THIS, I know a lot of places are having their own version of Buffalo cauliflower bites but this is definitely the best place I have had if so far. Using a tempura batter was a smart move and something I'm going to have to try at home. Seared tuna salad- I was indifferent about this because I'm usually picky about Asian flavors at American restaurants but this was so flavorful and delicious. The salad was light, refreshing and had a great umami taste. The tuna wasn't fishy and a better quality then most places in MN. Crispy chicken tenders w/ house made ranch- quality and breading was good but not as flavorful as it looks, the ranch was ok and kind of plain. Truffle burger w/ tater tots- the bacon jam on here is heaven! It's sweet and savory- definitely a juicy burger that will get your hands dirty but well worth it. The burger is pretty oily and heavy if you're feeling something hearty this would do just fine. read more

Overall, the Lowry is a comfortable, reasonably priced, and tasty place for a meal. It's also slightly upscale from a diner making it a good place for nicer occasions too. In addition, they feature an assortment of elevated alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. FOOD: food quality is very good. Some portions can be small (specifically we had the beet salad). But overall, the food quality is above average and entree choices tend to be well crafted. PARKING: easy in the lot out to the side of the restaurant on Hennepin. SERVICE: Good service. Not much to say here. AMBIANCE: Good for quick and nicer meals. I appreciate the feel of the restaurant. Definitely nicer than a typical diner but still rather casual. read more

I stopped by the Lowry with some friends of mine after Open Streets Lyndale a few weeks ago, and was really excited to try this place as I drive by it twice a day, to and from work and saw it has pretty solid reviews here on Yelp. Unfortunately, for me, the food was just incredibly mediocre. My Eggs Benny were just fine. I really didn't enjoy them very much. They were lacking flavor and the Hollandaise tasted artificial to me. All my friends at the table agreed. And on top of that, it took super long for our food to come out. I probably won't be coming back here, but I would give it another try if someone I knew really advocated for it. read more

You know, it didn't blow me away but I would probably come back again for another go. I got the Peter's Burger (which comes on sourdough) and both slices of bread were soggy with the ketchup or whatever sauce they put on there. Tasted pretty good, but just felt like sloppy preparation. We did start with a Beer and a Bump ($8) which did get the night off to a good start, but just was expecting a more. 6.7/10 read more

We went to try their brunch on a Sunday morning and there wasn't any wait for a table which is unlike every other brunch place in the cities! The eggs Benedict was very average and didn't have much flavor. The banana waffle was good but also not unique or a large serving for the price. The waitress was nice and gave a lot of coffee refills! They have a large parking lot attached which is super nice for the crazy uptown area. The restaurant has a modern vibe and would probably be a nice dinner spot with lots of booths facing outside. Overall an average brunch place to try. read more
