The Pillbox Tavern is an absolute MUST STOP if you're in downtown St. Paul!!! What a fantastic…read morebar/restaurant that has a little something for everyone. If Jenn and Chad are bartending, you're In for a treat. Fantastic customer service, bartenders that smile and seem to enjoy their craft as they work. I was in St. Paul for 5 days and spent 3 of my dinners there. N/A beer selection was a nice plus. They carry an impressive line of Tap beers from all over the country and their kitchen backs its reputation with great quality food! (Full bar, plenty of liquor and a great wine selection also) There's plenty of outdoor seating available also along the street, which is an open-air compliment to the restaurant. TV's cover every spot you could ask for, with a MONSTER main screen on the bar wall.... Not sure its size, but it would be calculated in feet, not inches! There is not a plethora of options in St. Paul for restaurants, especially in the downtown area. The Pillbox is walking distance to the Grand Casio Arena which is fantastic and most downtown hotels are only a 5-7 minute walk away. I spent 19 years in the restaurant business. From doorman, to buss boy, server, to bar tender, bar manager to general manager, I've managed restaurants similar to the Pillbox Tavern. I openly and publicly give them a huge shout out for their customer service, food quality and atmosphere....and additional kiddos for the upbeat environment their staff portrays. If Jen and Chad ever move to Chicago, they could write their own tickets In restaurant management or ownership. If you're looking for a place because your visiting, this is YOUR ONE STOP SHOP! If you are local and haven't tried it yet, you need to establish a new watering hole! If you're lucky enough to meet regulars like Tony and his wife at the bar, you Might just be rubbing elbows with some of the nicest people in St. Paul! Cheers to enjoying a smile on the rocks with new friends at The Pillbox Tavern. -Brad

Great spot for a lovely dinner in downtown St Paul. My friend and I sat at a high top table on the…read moreedge of the inside portion of the restaurant. It was a drizzly evening so we opted for inside but with garage doors were all open. Our waitress was great. She was helpful and nice. The food/drinks were quickly served to us. I ordered the margarita (comes with a buzz button) and the Big Bang Shrimp Tacos (gf). Everything was absolutely delicious! The tacos are served on corn tortillas (3). The sauce on the tacos is to die for. Marg was great and came with a buzz button which I've had before elsewhere but that was a fun addition to my cocktail. It kind of tingles the inside of your mouth when you chew on it. It lingers for a couple of minutes (the tingle sensation). I'm looking forward to coming back cause their menu looks ahhmazing. Cheers!

I almost don't want to review them so word doesn't get out about how cool this place is. We were at…read morea show at the theater just next door to here. After the show we decided to come check this place out. Now this isn't the "best" neighborhood and from the outside the bar doesn't look inviting. When you walk in you are greeted by a bouncer who runs a metal detector over you. Already I'm thinking, what have we gotten ourselves into.... We saddled up to the bar and the bartender is a tough looking guy. Looks can be deceiving though. He was a super sweet guy who knew how to manage a crowded bar. I've never seen someone work that fast and efficiently. He was working solo but you never had to wait long for a beer. We decided to order some food too. Again, I wasn't holding out hope. They are magic with a fryer though. The food came out hot, well seasoned, and just the right level of greasy. Just when I thought I had this place pegged, the music got me. It went from hip-hop, to 90's pop, to country in whiplash inducing speeds. Truly boggled my mind. Don't be afraid to step in and try something new. 12/100

The patio was fairly with constant turnover while we were there, the weather was great, and the service was A+! The inside definitely has a dark dive bar vibe, good for some occasions but not super family friendly, but we felt comfortable having a little one with us out on the patio. The food was delicious! We tried the "wings" (made of chicken thighs) and they gave regular wings a run for their money! You can do two flavors which is great, and they're very filling. We also got a burger and the special of the night, chopped cheese, and thought it was delicious. Great portions, we had a ton left to take home. The cocktail was delicious as well, will definitely try more when we come back next to hang out on the patio! Come check this place out!

Can't miss on the regular fries. Crispy and delicious!

We walked a complete circle of the entire arena before we decided what we were going to eat & drink. Luckily, Sheboygan was super close to our seats. I was impressed by the high quality brats and hotdogs...not just cheap fast food stuff we were forced to buy in the old days. I didn't expect this at a large venue. It was a nice surprise. Also, they have a variety of beer flavors, including higher end IPA type beers in case you're sick of the usual Bud Light type of stuff. Of course, they have soda & water too. I made 4 or 5 trips for meat and beers for our small group. Despite being super damn busy, the people behind the counter were consistently fast, friendly, smiling, and joking around. No sour faces...no sarcasm...just straight up great customer service for everyone in line. Thanks for some great brats & beer and big smiles, Sheboygan! -Daddy Maxx Retro

Sadly, this was my last night at Emmett's, a place I once considered my bar. I've gotten to know so…read moremany of the dedicated bartenders and waitstaff over the years, so it's really disappointing to hear that most have resigned following the recent management changes. The people were a huge part of what made Emmett's feel welcoming, creative, and special, especially with the innovative cocktails. It's also disappointing to see what feels like a lack of appreciation for the staff and the longtime, dedicated customers who helped build this establishment into what it was. Unfortunately, the new direction feels much more canned and unoriginal--more like a Irish version of Applebee's or Outback Steakhouse than the unique place it used to be. There are simply too many great places to choose from to settle for something mundane and uninspired. The new GM has also made longtime customers feel unwelcome, with no acknowledgment or warmth when walking through the space. The atmosphere just isn't the warm, inviting place I once enjoyed. Sadly, I guess it's time to find a new favorite.
