    Outside front of building.

    Miller's Corner Bar is small. In the dining area there are 3 booths, 5 tables, and 12 seats at the bar, and they are fairly packed into the fairly small space. There are also two picnic tables outside, but it was a bit too cold the night we went, so nobody sat outside. We were there at about 7:15 on a Friday night, so it was packed full of people, yet we miraculously got a table for two right away. There was also a live band that night so the place was crowded and noisy. The vibe was very neighborhood "small town" bar, almost a dive bar, but not in a bad way. It was pretty clean, though some of the furniture showed age and use. They have a pull tab machine if you are into that, and a TouchTunes machine which I assume is in play on nights there isn't live music. The lighting is dim, but not so dark that you can't read the menu even with my aging eyes. There is one tv in the corner, which I also assume is in use on nights without live music. There is also a self-serve popcorn machine which is always good in a "small town" bar. The waitress came to us very quickly to get our drinks order and give us our menus. She was very friendly and attentive without being pushy at all. We ordered our drinks and they came out to us quickly. Everyone we encountered that evening was very friendly and they were quick to be of service. When a party left a table it was cleaned and re-set impressively quickly. The food was good! It took a little longer than I would have expected, but not so long that it was bothersome. Honestly it probably only seemed slow to me because my husband was hangry and I wanted to get food in his belly as quickly as possible. My husband had the Trouble Double burger. He said the meat was very good and juicy, though he thought it was a bit overcooked - mind you he is a "rare" guy and the meat was cooked medium-well to well done, but that is on him because he didn't request his burger cooked a certain way when he ordered. Also he would have preferred fried onions rather that the raw that was on his burger, and the burger had more pickles on it than he likes - again, his problem because he didn't specify when he ordered. He is a pretty picky guy and not shy about saying what he doesn't like, but he didn't complain to the waitress (thank god) because everything was fine even if not to his exact wishes. On the side he had ordered tater tots which he seemed to like. I had the Grilled Chicken sandwich and I had no complaints. The meat was well seasoned with good balance, not too much seasoning, not too little. It had tomatoes, lettuce, and mayo on it which was optional, but didn't cost extra like some places like to do. Over all, very good. I had the coleslaw on the side. It was flavourful and creamy and seemed to be house made. In general I would say the food was pretty good and exceeded expectations for a dive-ish bar. By 7:45ish the crowd started thinning out and the noise level dropped considerably. The dinner rush was over. When we finished eating we were not rushed or pushed to get out. We had a very good experience. The only reason I gave it a four star review instead of five is that it might not be everyone's cup of tea, and it was pretty full space for how small it was - which is probably on me because I am an introvert and get a little uncomfortable around so many people. We will definitely come back, and would recommend it to others.

    Hands down my favorite burgers in Minneapolis! Everything is made fresh to order and cooked perfectly every time. Their sides (fries, onion rings and tots) are also a slam dunk. The service is friendly and quick. The bar is small, but well worth waiting for a table when they are busy. I love a dive, so this fits the bill. This is a staple for me and I look forward to keep coming back.

    Service was awesome at the bar. Big burger guy, and trouble double with extra pickles was awesome. Fries were fresh, and burger is consistently good.

    This is definitely one of those under rated burger joints on the south side of Columbia Heights. If you live in the neighborhood, you are lucky to call this home. A fine tap selection and free popcorn, but the place is a solid hit if you are going for a burger. I swear (I've got picture proof!) that this is one of the prettiest burgers I've ever had with the jalapeno's as little nubs under the cheese. No fear of them falling of this thing. And those tots? Crunchy little things of tastiness. Also, the times I've been here during the summer months(2019) they had the Schell's Brewing Sangria on tap. It's good on a hot day and I recommend it.

    Fantastic hamburgers and onion rings and friendly service at this neighborhood bar. The Dilly Don Burger is great if you're a pickle fan

    Wonderful neighborhood joint!!

    Man, what a great neighborhood place this is! Located just east of Central Avenue, this corner bar reminds me of the places I cut my teeth on earlier in my drinking days. This place is the perfect dive bar, and I mean that in the most endearing way. You can tell this place is run well. it's loaded with regulars. Overall it had a really nice vibe to and the staff certainly makes you feel welcome. It was just dumb luck that we went here, and I am glad we did. Somebody mentioned that their breaded pork tenderloin sandwich is really good. We were only about 15 minutes away so we thought we'd go for it. Whoever said it was a good pork tenderloin sandwich undersold it. It was pretty awesome. The menu is pretty basic; burgers, hot dogs, chicken sandwich, etc. There is something to be said about having a burger made on a flat top griddle. They have that awesome crust that makes the burger that much more enjoyable. The fries and tots are good and plentiful, as well as the onion rings. Totally coming back here when I can. Oh! and one more thing: Meat Raffle on Saturday evenings starting at 6:30! Don't be late for it!!

    Jackie's a burger artist! I highly recommend you stop by and have a taste for your self. Millers Bar should be called 8.2 one of the best in Minneapolis/ Saint Paul.

    Went here on a tip from a local brew house. Great service that was fast and friendly. Sat at the bar and hand a great meal. Great COVID protocols - including asking people who do not feel well to not come in. Tables and bar areas were properly cleaned and sanitized. Prices were right. Very casual place with great atmosphere.

I don't like to review based on takeout so I left it be. It was nothing special and clearly previously frozen. Decided to stop in again but for brunch. They have a full bar but only list 3 drinks on the brunch menu. Mimosa, Irish coffee, and Bloody Mary. Their mimosas were a great pour and I didn't feel the need for more than one! We ordered the Crab Benedict and Eggs Florentine. Both had FANTASTIC flavor! Unfortunately, the poached eggs on the crab were practically hard boiled, and my Florentine was a soup. I had to drink the eggs. Not super pleasant. The flavor, as mentioned before, was yummy! Very buttery, with tangy roasted tomatoes. Service was good, and we didn't feel rushed. They have a host stand, but it wasn't super clear if you should seat yourself or not. I saw people doing both. Street parking but not too hard to find a spot. I will definitely give it one or two more tries and update my review. Need to go for dinner, and I'm curious to try their French toast!

Quick heads up the menu and bar options do differ slightly as they don't offer everything up top. (Smaller bar and few less food options/no French fries) The group enjoyed our foods!! Pizza was good sized, burgers/sandwiches had nice flavors. We had a quick little issue with the bill but it was handled fairly quickly. Enjoyed our summer night in the roof top. Added the review to NOLOs as well.

    Could be the MN's best rooftop patio... but it's not!…read more I have to share my experience because I truly think management could use this feedback to help support and educate staff. Upon entry, there's no host stand or sign telling guests to seat themselves. Our group of 3 sat down at a dirty table and waited 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging us or clearing it off. I finally went to the bar to ask if we had a server, and the bartender pointed to a staff member on their phone behind the bar. Our waitress eventually came over to take our drink order, but she didn't bother to clear the table or introduce herself. After bringing our drinks, she then informed us dinner service had ended 30 minutes earlier. This information would've been nice to know upfront! The Rooftop Bar is so cute, great views, and has SO much potential because the space itself is great. I just hope management sees this as an opportunity to improve the guest experience because the service was honestly shocking, and not in a good way!
