Worth ItClosing down Palmer’s, downtown Minneapolis eats and campfires raise questions in MN
Worth It
There’s a reason compasses always point north. The North Star State is the land of 10,000 possibilities. That’s where the Minnesota Star Tribune comes…Palmer’s Bar is closing after an incredible 119-year run. There’s no replacement but we’ve got some ideas for your new favorite dive bar hangout. Workers are heading back to downtown Minneapolis, and our food team has the ultimate food and drink guide! Plus, we ask the burning question: are campfires still worth it?
Read more about bars that might stand in for Palmer’s, eating in downtown Minneapolis and the debate about campfires.
This week our guests are music critic Chris Riemenschneider, food and drink reporter Joy Summers, and freelance writer Tim Gihring.
