What People Are Saying About Matts Bar

In Short – From the outside, Matt's looks like just another dark, old neighborhood corner bar sporting faded Grain Belt and Bud signs. Inside, it's just a long, skinny bar with a row of plain booths and a jukebox featuring the standard mix of classics. But legions of sports fans, families and locals make regular trips down Cedar Avenue to order thick, handmade burgers stuffed with bubbling, salty cheese and nestled against a heap of hot fries.

Awesome Jucy Lucy's!

Go there for the Jucy Lucy's! Two thin patties stuffed with American cheese fried on a never-been-washed flattop grill. Your choice of grilled or raw onions, no other veggies (lettuce tomatoes etc) available. What can be simpler? Wait staff is friendly, but don't forget, you're in a neighborhood bar so don't give 'em any guff and you won't git none. It's hard to get more Minneapolis than this!
- Pros: dive bar awesomeness
- Cons: gets very busy

The real deal!

Not a wing joint but a magical delight known as the 'jucy lucy'. You have to experience it. Cheese, meat, cheese - beautiful.
- Pros: Jucy lucy & great fries - COLD beer
- Cons: no wing equivalent
