Meh

by 4thtennenbaum at Citysearch

I try to like Bunny's. I'm just not a fan.

Fair tap beer selection, and super close to where I live, but the food is always bland. I've gone on a few occassions and it's always less than average.

It's very loud, even when it's not busy. It's all one big room mostly. It's also ridiculously bright. I can't recall being in a restaurant, much less a bar that is so bright.

Some nice bartenders.

Overall, I don't think it's a dive, but more neighborhood bar. Maybe that is the stigma they tried to overcome when they remodeled. Anyway, not my thing.

Walleye

by MendyUSA at Citysearch

All right guys I'm soliciting opinions here. I think the Walleye is the best I've had in any restaurant in Minnesota period. Weigh in... who's had better? This might be just a Friday thing ?

  • Pros: Walleye

Easy going tavern

by ThumperVegas at Citysearch

I see that Bunny's is listed as a "dive bar". Man, that makes me really really sad that we here in the Twin Cities area are relegading a solid neighborhood establishment such as Bunny's into the category of "Dive".

Dive, to me, signifies dark, smoky, where the purpose if getting drunk. Bunny's, esp in it's new location, is bright, happy, and although it's not trendy (thus I suspect it being relagaded to "Dive" status), it's clientelle is middle to upper-middle class. The drinks are not expensive, the food is reasonable (try the buffallo drummies) and the conversation is down to earth. The crowd here tens to be 30s-40s, the wait staff attentive, the music is not loud. Oh, did I mention the prices are reasonable?

Downside, it's not a trendy pickyp bar, and sometimes it's so popular (especially happy hours 5-6) that you might have to park on the street.

  • Pros: Value!
  • Cons: Parking

Best sports bar in Twin Cities

by jrobe6464 at Citysearch

Bunny's is the best! Good bar food at good prices, good selection of tap beers (with a rotating `beer of the month'). The atmosphere is quintessential Minnesota. Everyone at the bar is chatty, including the bartenders--the best "Wiz" works at the far end of the bar. You can never be sure who you'll talk to at the bar, but I've never had a dull conversation there. Great place to go alone or with friends. Casual atmosphere..though some people do dress up.

  • Pros: Most everything!
  • Cons: Sometimes you need to park on the street
