Annie's Parlour

great date night spot. The atmosphere at Annies in Dinkytown is perfect for a date night. It's intimate and the perfect place to talk. The burgers are great and the fries are homemade and great for sharing. If your date prefers a lighter fare, they have great chicken choices and salads. The malts at Annies are famous for a reason, chocolate banana is my favorite, but oreo and peanut butter cup come in a close second.…

Nice place for a 1st date. I took a lady of mine here, and she really liked it. They had good potions of food for what you paid for the meal. The staff were very polite and paid attention to things. Our glasses were always filled when needed.…

Riversides, nostagia and great malts. I've enjoyed Annie's Parlour since the 70s while I was a Gopher. Being in Dinkytown, the atmosphere, smell of burgers, big malts and Riversides still makes Annie's one of our favorite retro-date places. The nostagia and fries add to the experience and the outdoor terrace - weather permitting - is another plus. Long live Annie's!!!…

Get what you pay for.... After hearing 4 years of hype about Annie's I decided to stop by with 3 others for lunch on the patio. The place is certainly cheap with their burgers ranging from roughly $4-6. After hearing so many rave reviews of the burgers, I quickly realized that I consistently prepare larger, better-tasting Californias at home. Fries were pretty good, but not equal to those found at Town Hall Brewery just across the river. Malts were impressive but ordering one will double your bill. Service was pretty slow despite not being packed (During this particular visit it took about 20 miutes for the malts to arrive, 30 for the food). Probably never going back though I live a few blocks away. For a good burger around the U, Sally's or Town Hall trumps Annie's, but then again, most people probably go here for the malts.…
