We finished up with dinner nearby a bit early, so decided to grab a drink at La Dona! Small parking lot out front, but I'd plan to park on the street, as there is ample parking along the local blocks! The space itself is warm and inviting, drenched in color and energy! Plenty of seating available indoors and outdoors for any size group! Service was quick and easy, as we enjoyed some their brews! I had the Dona Fria Mexican Lager, which was delightfully refreshing and perfect for the summer evening! We didn't get any food, but they have what appeared to be a strong menu of snacks and other food items to go with your beer! read more

Good beer and good food, what more do you need?! Tried the wheat lager and the Mole stout. Both really tasty. They have food now, which I was excited to try. Had the steak quesadilla. Super yummy. The steak had good flavor and it was actually bigger than I expected. Looking forward to coming back! read more

The wings were awesome!!!! We tried the lemon pepper. Crispy on the outside but oh so juicy and tender on the inside!!! I was very pleased! I tried the Mr. Hyde Smoked Serrano Pepper IPA - was hoping it would have been a tad spicier, I did not feel the heat at all. And didn't notice much of a smoky flavor although I could taste the pepper. It was a fairly light IPA which was nice, and it is refreshing. The space here is very open and there is plenty of seating. Around the bar, towards the food station and in the back. While we were there the back seating area was reserved for an engagement party so this venue can be used for celebrations and gatherings! Highlight ****++ Come for the lemon pepper wings!! read more

I went here for an event in the party room. I'm glad the place where you order is very close to it as well as the bathrooms. I like a hard shell taco and got the shrimp because it was labelled crispy. Turns out only the shrimp was crispy. So I ate the 3 and I got over the soft shell because inside was bursting with flavor. I got a side guacamole. It tasted good but it was difficult to determine how good because it was in a tiny plastic to go thing and not in a dish. Naturally you have lots of chips left. A handy water area although it wasn't cold. Just get ice from the friendly bar folks in the middle. I really like the layout. But too many high tops for my liking. The real star was a to go pepperoni pizza. Normal thick crust, which I actually ate since they don't char/burn like so many others. Perfect pizza sauce and plenty of delicious pepperoni. Don't tell me I have to start getting my pizza over here. There is actually a friendly face to greet you at the door. The main plus a decent sized parking lot. I haven't been this impressed in a long time. read more

Good drink selection. Lots of cool events and spaces to use for social events. The drink selections are great an staff is always keeping busy and friendly read more

We walked to the brewery after lunch to get a couple of beverages. Brewery is spacious, also has an ofrenda in the middle. Pictures of family and friends and flowers. There's a food area to order and a huge bar to sit. The bartender has a heavy hand, our cocktails were pretty strong. They don't offer tour or tasting, however was told the owner did take some friends back there few times. We were still full from lunch, will have to come back and try the food. read more

Overall this is a cute place, great outdoor seating and relaxing atmosphere. The beer is pretty basic and not super flavorful. We also tried the Oaxaca old-fashioned, which was flavorful, but a pretty small pour and not super strong. We also tried through tacos, which you have to order at a separate booth. Overall, all the tacos were just okay as well. They had a decent amount of meat and some fresh toppings. read more

This is such a great spot for so many reasons. There isn't much else around, so this is the place to go for brews, soccer, dancing, social time in or outside and more! The space has room for groups to spend time together. They have some.baord games and I've seen community events held here in the back room like concerts, dance lessons and yoga. If you don't like beer but you like to hang with friends who do, they also have other options. Ex. Kombucha, jinx tea, etc. I love to come here when I don't want to cook dinner sometimes! They have a delicious cocina that sells hearty tacos, wings, quesadillas, burrito bowls, yucca fries and more. Come watch soccer on the tvs, live on the field out back or best yet, put your toddler in a program, then sit back and warch with a cold drink in hand, for the hour, in peace!! read more

So excited to be back at La Doña now that their kitchen is up and running. Always a warm welcome at this place and it's such a vibrant space. As always, I got the Mole Stout, it's just so good. But this time I was able to pair it with some delicious yucca fries. Perfectly seasoned, crispy outside and soft in the middle, served with a dipping sauce and a little salad. Hit the spot perfectly. read more

Beautiful space with vibrant colors and community oriented. Ordering food is fast food style at the counter towards the back and super easy. At first we thought the price was a bit high but after comparing to other places, it seems just a bit more or average compared to other breweries in the area. The wings here are flavorful and juicy. The yucca fries were also delicious- some crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. I really liked the beer cocktails- specifically the Michelada and Mango Chelada- refreshing and unique. Personally, I prefer breweries with a more cozy vibe and comfortable chairs but still definitely recommend this local brewery to at least check out! read more

We came for a birthday party for a one year old (at a brewery, I know!), it was a really really great idea! They have an area in the back where I believe they usually have live music with curtains to section off and they let our friends bring in toys for the kiddos to play with. Loved that they had a great selection of beers to choose from as well as some good food options for snacking. It wasn't warm enough but there's a soccer league in the space off to the side that looks like a ton of fun with bleachers to watch! Everyone was super kind and the service was really fast, Will definitely try to make it out again soon! read more

My first time at this pretty new brewery. Wow! What a great place. Closer than you think to the Walker, Parade Stadium, and downtown, this brewery has a great happy hour, lots of different (and really flavorful) beers, and a restaurant inside the brewery. The patio has a mini-soccer field and their calendar is full of game nights, music, and other events. Very cool, very fun. During happy hour the super friendly staff introduced the beers -- really a great place to sit back, be with friends, and hang out. I'm going back. There is a big parking lot. Either inside or outside, really a good vibe. read more

Really great experience at the brewery! All the beers we had tasted really good, I love Mexican lagers. They had some stuff on the menu that seemed pretty unique as well. We love the vibe of the place, it's massive and very bright with yellow and orange paint & murals & lots of decor that seems in line with Latin culture. When we first arrived around 3:30 PM it was pretty empty, but by the time we were leaving closer to 430 or 5 PM it had gotten really crowded! I believe their happy hour starts at 4 PM. There was also kids in the space, it seems like they do a lot of community stuff there and if I'm not mistaken, a part of their mission statement is to make a positive impact on the community. They have some food there, and I would say the tacos we tried were just OK, that's the only thing that didn't completely blow us away! read more

Excellent beer and great food. Outdoor area to exercise. Very spacious. This is a MPLS Hidden gem.

Ordered chips and queso and was very disappointed to see that their queso is just nacho cheese. Not sure how you can say you serve Latin inspired food and then serve nacho cheese as your queso. Also we waited almost a half hour before we were able to order food because there were only two people running the kitchen and they were backed up. read more

Great beer, great service! Super dog friendly as well. My shrimp tacos were very tasty as well.

Another year, another pubpass visit. I had the Hop-Hops IPA. Not my fav but it was good. I love their street tacos but we didn't eat this time. There is some construction in the area. Apparently there is a high rise apartment building going in, but fear not, their patio area with soccer spot will be replaced. Loved that outside area. There is a huge soccer following in this location and it's at its peak during the World Cup. We saw two Argentina fans hugging each other, clad in light blue and white striped jerseys, hours after that amazing game was over. Staff is always super friendly. Great brewery stop! read more

La Dona offers a small parking lot to its customers. Located in an industrial building which they have decorated to go with the theme of the restaurant. There is a place to order food that is separate from where you order drinks. They had a nice selection of beers and everything was well priced. I got the Beergarita and it was delicious. It is a light beer mixed with margarita mix and has a rim of tajin. There was a lot of space and they seemed to be hosting many events which was fun! read more

La Doña Cervezaria is a nice local brewpub with very nice Mexican, casual dining. There is table, seating, with a bar, and patio service in the summertime. You make food orders at a counter in the back, and you are given a buzzer that goes off when your food is ready. There's a nice selection of beers, the food is very good, service is friendly, this is a nice casual place to meet friends. parking isn't great, it appears they are building In addition. It will be interesting to see how that works out. read more

Interesting setup. I went when there was a makers market event so one part of the hall wasn't able to be used by patrons. The food was a little on the cheesy side, but I can see why some may like it. Beers were fine and there was an additional food truck outside with ample picnic tables. Not a lot of parking spots in the lot, but street parking seems to be the way to go. I'll go again to give it another shot, 3 stars for the experience. I did like the artwork inside. read more

This spot is so cute! I loved the brewery, and Mexican cuisine look and feel of this place! The beer my boyfriend gave five out of five stars. They have a lot of options and different types of beers. They even had items to drink for gluten free and non-alcoholic. the food menu is amazing. I loved the tacos. The meat was amazing. The price was great for what you get! I am a big Street taco fan and they had a great selection of those. The quesadilla was fantastic as well! This is a great spot to come and eat and grab a beer, you could sit a while and play games watch sports or enjoy one of their live events. The food came out quick and there wasn't ever a long line to wait to get a beer. read more

Modern, clean venue that has been open for about 4 years and has a reasonable choice of beers (16). It was a beehive of activity on a Saturday afternoon with several kids birthday parties, some basketball fans and others enjoying the beer (even some outside when it was only 50 degrees). Also, the food looks great, but we had just eaten before going there. Food: n/a Atmosphere: 4 Value: 4 Service: 5 If you found this review helpful, please click to show your support. read more

Very open and spacious space (lol). Plenty of seating and good for groups. When we first walked in we didn't know what to do but quickly learned that you pick your brew or beverage of choice from the menu posted on the wall and simply order it! There are lots to choose from. The best part were the games and of course, Tacos!! So easy to spend at least 2 hours here and forget where the time went. The servers were courteous and helpful with making recommendations. Will come back soon. read more

Ambience 10/10!!! What a neat spot! Totally up my alley with the decor. Fun outdoor patio area that over looks a mini soccer field. Would be fun to catch a game or listen to music out there. They had a few shelves of board games to play if you like doing that thing at a brewery. The 2 beers we got via our pub pass (a neat way to try out places we wouldn't normally try!) we're fine. We are more 'sour beer' fans but they weren't bad at all. I would try different ones next time to see what I favor more. We didn't have any food- but you order inside next to the bar. It sure smelt good that is for sure. Would get food next time. Amy brewery that has actual food is always a plus A sweet set up that makes you smile. Very neat! read more

The food was good but not for the price... and we definitely explored the menu today and shared a whole bunch of things. They overcharge for both food and beer, which was average. What a bummer they got rid of the burritos, too! No one was impressed in the group. Still a cute place. read more

La Doña is one of my favorite locations to grab a drink and grub. The great thing is that they have Trivia night and Lotteria as well. Many options of beers and cocktails to choose from and all have their own unique taste. Food is delicious and freshly made. My personal favorite is the lemon pepper wings because of how crispy and JUICY it is. Also their ranch pairs so well with it. Environment is great and decorative. Service is quick and easy read more

Had an awesome experience at La Doña! We had our early holiday work bash and had the whole place to ourselves. The atmosphere is so chill and bright. There is a great space for events, a patio, and mini soccer field. They also do salsa and bachata events here. I had the Big Mama which is a Blonde Ale, the smoky chicken quesadilla, and the yucca fries. The food was delicious. I would definitely get that quesadilla again! They have a wide selection of beers and a Michelada (a Michelob/Bloody Mary). Not only was it a heckuva good time, but the staff was pretty amazing as well. Pay them a visit and it will become a favorite. read more

La Doña is a Latin-influenced craft brewery, and the only one in Minnesota that I know of. They reflect the Latin experience in the state and are strong promoters of accessibility in the craft beer industry. They offer a great rotation of beer, fantastic space, and a menu of Latin food that hits the spot after a long day or fills the 'hangry' void during a happy hour. 3 The Hard Way A Mexican Lager in collaboration with 612 Brew and Wild Mind Artisan Ales brewed with both blue and purple corn. Try this beer at every brewery and you get a completely different experience! I love the blue and purple corn malt flavor that provides aroma, body, and robustness without taking over the light body of the lager. It is crisp and clean, a hint of spiciness, and a great pairing for any of the food La Dona offers! ____________ read more

I want to love this brewery so bad but I can't get behind it :( they have good chips + guac and decent quesadillas but other than that they have average beer, food, and service. They used to have a soccer field in their backyard but they sold it and now a high rise is currently building there. Bummer! It was fun to watch the teams play in the summertime. Otherwise the atmosphere is fun and different! I'll come back once in a while :) read more

I have been to La Dona numerous times strictly for the DELICIOUS beers Dicky brews!! Tonight I stopped in for the Taco Tuesday special; 3 tacos and a pint for $12. As I told beertender Delahno "a mistake has been made... these are so delicious, I didn't need to know this!" ha. I opted for the Al Pastor w the sauce on the side. Surprise!! The tacos came out w pineapple on them! I would have never considered that but it was a perfect addition! Glad I got the sauce on the side as it was a little spicy for my palate. I'm not even sure it was five minutes between when I sat down and the pager went off! I wasn't sure what to expect w ordering food at that window and getting the beer at the bar? No fear, they handed me a wooden token! I paired my tacos w a Suenos De Cafe, they both complimented each well. I had always heard the food was good... believe the hype! The food is as good as the beer and the friendly beertender!! Thanks La Dona for yet another delicious visit and great conversation, cheers!! read more

La Dona is a gem! My boyfriend and I went for an engagement party and enjoyed every bit of it. It's such a fun spot with a great vibe. The food was phenomenal and very reasonably priced! The Yuca Fries are an absolute must have. I tried the Mango Chelada which was a refreshing beer marg with a spicy rim. Loved it as it wasn't too sweet yet very smooth and delicious! My bf ordered and raved about the Beer Colada. We also got the Llapingachos, cheese stuffed potato pancakes served with toppings, which were out of this world!!! Overall, it is such a great experience and place for events or to come just to chill and enjoy some excellent food, drinks and company. We can't wait to come back! read more

Although I didn't find any of the beers amazing, I do like the place. They don't have flights, but you can order, I believe, 6oz glasses and create your own flight. The woman that rang us up was extremely helpful and friendly. They also have a separate stand inside where you can order food. They even have vegetarian options. I really enjoyed the nachos. read more

Good beers.. Oktubrefest was awesome. La Reyna was good too, but el rey . Some other ones I tasted like the doña fría both serrano or no serrano versions were . Good tacos but... why wouldn't they use two tortillas?? Single tortilla disintegrates and makes a big mess on the table. Nachos were VERY soggy. read more

Very cool spot and the quesadilla is killer!! If you are wondering what to order- highly recommend. Only thing that was a little odd (given I did visit on cinco de mayo) was we made a reservation online ahead of time, and when we got there it didn't seem to mean anything. There were no tables available and the bartender told us they take reservations and walk ins so just wait for a table To open. I felt like this defeated the purpose of making a reservation? It was kind of a confusing experience. But maybe was because of the holiday? I would definitely be willing to give it another try and see if we have a similar experience. Would love to visit on a nice summer day as they have outdoor seating too. read more

First off, their atmosphere is incredible. You walk in and are instantly taken by the place: beautiful drawings decorate the walls (I'm almost more inclined to call them murals). The colors are loud, bright, and fit right in with the bar which is lit-up from underneath. There is also a side toward the back of the space which allows for board games and other relaxing seating aside from the bar and regular tables. As for the beer, it was quite good. I don't even like beer very much, but I had to try their mango infused brew (which is no longer listed on their website) and my friend went for the Big Mama (a blonde ale). We both very much enjoyed our drinks and you CANNOT beat the prices- $4 for my 10oz and $5 for my friend's 16oz. For most craft beer places, that's very affordable. My only complaint here is their "lack" of options. But if you like beer, this will be no problem, there are plenty of beers to choose from but seeing as I'm a little picky-er, I prefer a wide selection (thankfully they also have soda for sale, including a Guava soda which seems to be made locally and came in a cool bottle). Our outing took place on Halloween and while there were no events happening that night, we still had a good time and were able to get very timely service and watch some Halloween movies up on the TVs dispersed throughout the bar. My only (mild) complaint would be that there is no food aside from snacks (such as a single serve bag of chips). Food trucks do stop by, but are usually gone by mid-evening which completely misses the bar crowd. Otherwise, I had a very positive experience and as it is right by my work I plan to go again, especially once spring rolls around so I can watch some soccer matches in their outside field! read more
