Minneapolis Minnesota: Cool Things To Do // Destinations Explained

[@hunterposten2516]

As a local this is hands down the best twin cities travel guide. Really happy to see a lot of local joints that get overlooked in all the other videos.

[@VentureAddicts]

Thanks Hunter!

Also most of us Minnesotan came here long before America even existed look up the Viking voyage from mantoba Canada to Minnesota 1000 years ago America formed around 1781 we came here around 781 to 1066AD also the indigenous people in this state carry Norwegian blood from our ancestors here also Minnesota translate from objiwa language meaning how blue or grey the sky looks on the evening so ye most Americans come from killers who took there land learn about 1500 and 1600 hundreds

As a Minnesotan...born and raised around so many types of people and become a growing state to grow family is a good place.

I'm anxious in relocating to the Minneapolis area from Seattle. It checks all the boxes for me. Vibrant economy, 4 major professional sports teams, and a large variety of restaurants and breweries makes it all worthwhile to me. Real estate is also a lot more affordable than Seattle.

[@jakearsenta2144]

You’ll love it in Minneapolis… I moved out recently because I had to and miss it every single day. I even cry about leaving because it truly is the best place in the country. I want to move back.

I love Psycho Susie’s on Marshal near Betty Dangers. It has a Caribbean band and dried grass on the walls and cabanas on the deck next to the Mississippi River. Great cocktails and fun glasses in fun shapes that you can buy to take home!! My girls take me there on Mother’s Day most years!!

Dude I have lived most my life in Minneapolis, and never seen some of these places. Thanks for showing me more of my home!

[@trueglidetv3785]

Damn! Finally a good video about my home city! It’s like you literally followed my wife and I around to find out our favorite spots🤣 we moved here after college and thought that it would be temporary before moving to the West Coast - that was 30 years ago. Minneapolis is an amazing place to live! Great Music scene, amazing breweries (lots of them), great art scene, one of the top places for award winning restaurants in the country (more James Beard awards than most larger cities) and easy access to the outdoors- hell, I live a mile out of downtown and have 5 lakes within a few blocks of my house!

[@VentureAddicts]

Wow thanks!

At some point, I plan to go to Minneapolis so I can attend Furry Migration and visit Mall Of America. Looks like I'll also be eating at Wrecktangle Pizza and Milkjam Creamery as well. If you ever make a video about Omaha, I'd recommend bringing up Zio's Pizzeria and Romeo's Mexican Food in the restaurants section. I've been addicted to the cheese dip at Romeo's since I was a kid. Every time I revisit Omaha, I always make sure to eat at Romeo's.

[@lollirotzombie3805]

I live an hour away from "the cities" as many of us call it here. There's a lot of reasons people don't go there. The "Murderapolis" nickname has always been one. Needless to say I haven't been around the area myself too much. But if anyone is like myself who is coming from out of town to see a show or event in the area for the night and wants a place to go within walking distance of a venue.... What do you recommend? My friends and I stumbled into Rock Bottom Brewery looking for a bathroom near First Avenue, and it was the best decision we made that day. We now visit it every time we have an event to go to.

[@astron1000]

Unless you are engaging in illicit activities, there's hardly any reason to worry about violent crime in Minneapolis since, like other major US cities, violent crime occurs primarily in a sub-culture of drugs and gangs. Seriously, there are literally muli-million-dollar condos right in the heart of downtown Minneapolis. Are these wealthy residents cowering in fear? No, they're regularly going to Brit's Pub, Smack Shack, Orchestra Hall, The Guthrie, Spoon & Stable, The Dakota or several dozen other venues. Violence is always bad. And all of America is in the grip of it right now, not just Minneapolis. But the best thing you can do is just genuinely live your life and grab the joy you deserve.
