What People Are Saying About 331 Club
The Editor
Molly Priesmeyer

In Short – The 331 Club stands out in Northeast, a neighborhood dotted with traditional Minneapolis dive bars of the best kind. That's because the 331 is like those dive bars' prettier second cousin, dark and mysterious but full of warmth and light. To be sure, the 331 is old-school, but in a speakeasy, Prohibition-era way. Featuring a rotating cast of musicians who play old-timey tunes (The Roe Family Singers, Le Cirque Rogue Cabaret), the loungy spot is a welcome escape from the typical Twin Cities bar scene.

Embarrassing
by Maiero at Citysearch
My girlfriend and I went to this 'establishment' one afternoon. We immediately giggled upon entering because there was an undressed model being sketched by a small crowd of locals. We asked one another if we wanted to stay and decided we'd just get a few drinks.
The service (some fat guy in a tank top with bleached teeth and a spandex hat) thought he was some sort of authority figure and proceeded to acty very rude to us. He handed us a tiny, dingy menu that featured your run-of-the-mill bar food. A tuna melt was $7-8, which is laughable considering the overall condition of the bar as well as its cleanliness.
This bar features a plethora of crappy bands and there are a number of sociopath sops at and behind the bar. It's too bad because the neighborhood needs good business to maintain its reputation.
- Pros: Dark
- Cons: Everything

Nordeast Hot Spot
by pvorkzam at Citysearch
The 331, located on the corner of 13th and University in the heart of Nordeast Minneapolis's Arts District is just as colorful as it used to be, only in a different sort of way. Previously a biker bar with a reputation for being a place a gal could, um, "get stuff", the new owners have recreated it with a fresh coat of paint, a stage they fill with musicians and artists of all kinds, and a small kitchen serving up a delicious tuna melt (capers!) and sweet potato fries. The place is hopping on Fridays and Saturdays, inside and out; and the scene out on the sidewalk with the smokers is worth sitting at a picnic table.
- Pros: Friendly, good-looking people. Home of a spelling bee with liquor, the Roe Family Singers, and, at times, Le Cirque Rouge Burlesque. Great people watching.
- Cons: Not much parking. Wall-to-wall people on Saturday nights.
