Editorial Review for 331 Club – by 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.

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.

Revamped dive turned swan bar. Great food, atmousphere and the best bloodies in town. Not to mention solid music linup without cover charges. It is like the hexagon bar, but it is alot nicer, and more so an artists' hang out.
Pros: great music, bloody marys, atmousphere
