This is a place I've heard about but hadn't had a chance to try. We decided to go for dinner on a Saturday night. We got an order of the duck wontons but we were not fans. Instead of just duck bacon, corn, and cream cheese, which is what we thought would be inside, it also had peppers. The peppers overshadowed the rest of the ingredients so we didn't really taste any duck. I also got dry rub wings and mozzarella sticks. The mozzarella sticks were just okay, definitely on the small side. The wings had good flavor but were a tad dry. They were good but I wouldn't recommend going here just for the wings. My friend got the mushroom and Swiss burger with tots and really enjoyed that. She reported that the ranch was super good! read more

This place is a disgusting speck of Minneapolis, they let in "regulars" or "hot" ladies that wear sweatpants yet don't let in the younger crowd (20s-30s) wearing nice clothes which INCLUDE expensive sweatpants which look a hell of a lot better than half the outfits you see IN the bar lmao. They also shun the LGBTQ community and absolutely do NOT welcome their attendance. We went to spring street across the street and have never been more relieved. Bottom line.... I wouldn't step foot in the moose. I'd rather throw myself off a cliff - wish I could give zero stars read more

I actually really enjoy this bar. They do karaoke almost every night, cheap drinks and pretty good bar food. Recently made a stop here during the zombie pub crawl and got some wings. Always a fun crowd and the service is usually very good. read more

Went to this bar to see open mic comedy yesterday with some friends. Food and drinks were entirely mediocre. The host for the comedy, John, was a total prick and not funny at all. He only seemed interested in propping up his cronies. Won't be back and don't recommend. read more

Service is always excellent, a very lively crowd. Yes, they have a dance club downstairs. And the food is just excellent Large portions, especially for the breakfast. You can can't beat the price. read more

Honestly the food here is pretty good. The tots and fries were both amazing in particular but the cookie skillet was quite subpar. It basically just tasted like oven lol, not good. I didn't even finish it (which is crazy for a gal like me tbh). The dancing downstairs seems fun if you're looking for that kind of vibe. My personal preference is karaoke upstairs. Good spot, good service too read more

We used to go to Spring Street Tavern a bit pre-pandemic for comedy shows in the basement and would pop into Moose from time to time pre-show. They have karaoke on Saturdays which seems fun. Apparently they have a dance floor (downstairs?), not sure but I've only been in the main area. The drinks have always been super cheap and the food seems reasonable as well. We are usually able to find a table or a place around the bar. They do have servers which is nice you can avoid the bar lines. They have a decent size parking lot but there is street parking available as well. Overall a fun place to hangout! Pretty mixed age crowd. read more

Love this place came here to join some friends for some bar food and drinks. The moose has a very lovely ambiance. Lucky for us when we came they were having a karaoke night which made the night 10 times better! Our service was very attentive and had some great recommendations for food. I got a Rueben sandwich with tater tot for about 12 bucks and the serving size was huge I love it. The drinks are pretty cheap I ordered Long Island ice teas and beer all night for my friends and I and our bill was still under $100 for 4 people. If you're looking for chea P thrills definitely come here and also on the weekends they have a dance floor located in the 2nd level so definitely stop in read more

Good menu. Service is usually fast and friendly. Diverse crowd. I go there with some regularity. Good drink specials and good selection.

They held the check in here for the ZPC in October. The bar is def a fun place to be. They offer karaoke as well as a basement which serves as a giant dance floor. There's a bar on the main floor that also offers food. The basement has a bar as well. The bartenders were very nice and made our time enjoyable. read more

It's a dive and it's exactly what you expect! The drink specials are awesome ($2 on any tap from 2-6!? Wow!). The service is friendly and quick. The ambiance is very stereotypical of a dive- nothing fancy. Definitely a good place for a cheap drink. read more

Solid dive bar with above average karaoke! The food was decent bar stuff. The service was friendly and quick. Bonus DJ dance party downstairs after 9pm read more

I just flew into the city from Las Vegas and heard this was a fun spot. Showed up at midnight and was told it closes at 2am.. upon entering, I met a rude bouncer at the door.. he said they were closing early and clearing everyone out. So we waited for Uber to go home.. as we waited, we noticed that friends of his showed up and when they approached, he told them "so your here to close your tab" and let them in.. this guys is an idiot and liar.. these people he let in were just drinking with us at the previous bar.. i called him out on this and he had nothing to say.. I told him that he has no integrity and they couldn't pay me to go into the bar now.. stay away read more

Moose Bar & Grill - American Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Moose Bar & Grill in Northeast Minneapolis has quickly become one of my favorite bars in Minneapolis, thanks to our waiter, Alaina (I'm not sure if that's how her name is spelled). From the moment we sat down, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely excited to make sure we had a great experience. She knew the menu inside and out, offered spot-on recommendations, and checked in at just the right times without ever hovering. Drinks arrived quickly, food was hot, and every request was handled with a smile. Alaina somehow balanced efficiency with real personality, making us feel like regulars on our very first visit. When the place got busy, she stayed calm, organized, and upbeat, which made the whole night run smoothly. It's clear she takes pride in her work and cares about customers in a way you don't see often. Management should know that Alaina is a standout employee who elevates the entire restaurant. Give her a raise, because she's exactly the kind of server that keeps people coming back again and again on every visit without exception PERIODT. read more

Worst!! Just the worst! In this bar, there a gang of people who CONTROL the pull tabs- a regular called them "The Paper Mafia". Don't complain, or you will get kicked out. I was treated badly by every staff member when I tried to ask/complain. Lesson learned. Don't rock the boat- they were camped by the booth with food they brought from the outside. Btw, I'm a middle aged white woman. read more

The food here is absolutely amazing. Soups are made in house from scratch. They have a server on until 2 AM every single night so if you're sitting down at a booth or table, the server is there for you. they always have a dj downstairs on weekends. Every single night they have karaoke. It's a great place to have dinner and hang out with your friends and everyone is welcome. read more

Very busy place with lots of drunks. They won't serve you a glass of water and will tell you that they will only serve beer, even if you bought drinks before this. They clearly don't care about people getting home safely, and don't support those who aren't drinking. read more

Since mid 2022 I've been a somewhat regular for Mondays at Moose Comedy Open Mic, shows starting at 9pm, to hang out, laugh for an hour or so, enjoy the ever-changing lineup of many talented local comedians hosted by Jon Stannard (pic), recommended! Also, there are many specials - on a recent Tuesday night, I had a burger with fries for $9, so good! There is a dress restriction - no sweat pants after 8, so be advised. read more

I've been many times, this time was damn near awful. Felt like I was back in Iraq with the WARZONE I had to go through to get a Busch Light. Stood at the bar for about 30 minutes while servers did double takes for people. Whatever, Sick. Wouldn't let my buddy in cause he was wearing joggers past ten? Wild. What is this Bar? Church? Who wears Jeans? Paid the bouncer after lengthy negotiations with the owner. Wings were alright, got 7 which was an odd number. Left my vape when I got up to the bathroom, came back two minutes later, server definitely swiped that, Bonkers. Whatever. All in all the moose gets a 3 outta ten. Will be taking some time away. read more

Last time I was there. Bloody Mary great. Hamburger was great too. I would like to check out the spaghetti. read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! this bar is beyond janky, sticky, hot, slimy, so many people throwing up it's disgusting!!!! The DJ is my buddy and he was the most decent part of the bar. There's a bunch of old Pervy men who kept cat calling my fiancée and touching her in inappropriate ways. There's also "bar minimums" at this janky place which makes you purchase a minimum of 2 drinks! And then apparently they have a "dress code" for sweat pants and track suits but yet let people in swim trunks,baggy shorts and horrible attire in make it make sense. They draw the line that sweat pants/joggers yet someone wearing swim trunks and a wife beater with crocs was let in??? (Yes this is what I experiment! My brother got dress coded and I saw a guy with this attire one). On top of that the bouncers there don't regulate ANYTHING and I witnessed multiple escalations go on of SEVERELY drunk people trying to pick fights and start arguments.... People i don't know. I honestly felt the need to get on here and WARN people about this place because it is a total REDFLAG!!!!!! and would NOT ADVISE from going here! GO ELSEWHERE! save your money guys! This place should be shut down for the Inconvenience they provide and for the unsafe conditions! I wish people would speak out about this! My friends are beyond disappointed in this establishment! I am honestly considering going to the feds to make a formal report about this. read more

Moose Bar & Grill is nestled right in Northeast Minneapolis, and it's been around since 2001. I've been here numerous times for Vikings games, special occasions, and happy hour. It gets busy often, so expect it to be crowded if you're planning to come here to watch a sporting event. What I love about it, is the character is has - it's the kind of place where many regulars continue to visit. You see every kind of person here which is fun to be a part of and be around. The karaoke is so entertaining and brings out all the joy in folks singing and watching from their tables. I also enjoy their drink specials during Vikings games and daily specials - my favorite being their rib dinner for $14.99 on Wednesday nights from 4pm til they're out of them which includes their pork ribs, steamed veggies, and a baked potato. For me, it's an ideal size to share, but someone could easily eat an entire dinner by themselves. They also do 2-4-1's from 1-2pm on weekdays, so look out for that. They also do late night breakfast from 10pm - 2am and I can't say I know many places that offer that. They have a huge parking lot too, so no worries about not being able to find parking which is rare for Minneapolis. Feel free bringing groups here. What I'm not crazy about, is how mediocre the food can be at times. The wings are so hit or miss and I wish I could rave about them all the time. When they're good, I'd suggest their garlic buffalo (saucy), cajun or Moose seasoning (both dry rubs). Wings come with celery and ranch or bleu cheese. I've had occasions where the wings are great and occasions where they've been cold, like they came from the freezer and hadn't fully thawed. Pizzas are the same in that it's variable and the cook can be inconsistent. Don't get their bruschetta or chili either - so disappointing. The bruschetta was gross, to be frank. It's certainly not an Italian place, so another reason I wouldn't order it. Service can take awhile too, both at tables and at the bar, but I'm understanding about this when they have a lot of customers. read more

Classic Northeast bar with proper food, great drinks, and a welcoming fun vibe. I can't recommend the deep fried mushrooms, garlic buffalo wings, and any of their amazing pizzas enough. Bartenders and services are efficient and fun to banter with! read more

The Moose is a very fun bar to hangout at in NE Minneapolis! It has plenty of space, great wait staff and plenty of parking! There is karaoke on the weekends which added and extra layer of fun! I also ordered some wings for an appetizer and they were pretty tasty! Would recommend! read more

clam chowder on Fridays 5*! A little too loud in the bar for this ol' gal (and guy). Buffalo wings are great, too.

Tried to go there after a MN Wild game on 12/19 around 11:45 pm. Got there and the bouncer said "we're closed for the night" while OBVIOUSLY not being anywhere close to capacity. I didn't have the energy to argue with the bouncer so I was leaving with my friends when I noticed that the dude let 2 people (a guy and girl) in less than 30 seconds later... kinda crazy. If you're gonna stay "closed for the night" pretty sure you can't be selective about who you let in... but what do I know., I'm just another industry individual as well , my place of work wouldn't do that . read more

Food and drinks were alright. Staff was not the most friendly and tried to charge me for a drink they initially said they gave for free. Also, on weekends they will not give you water for free. They will only sell you bottles of water for $3 even though they know it's scummy to do so... read more

Moose Bar & Grill - I normally love this place but they started being rude about how many people can go in. Lame. - American Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

This place is a wonderful spot to hang out for great food, great service, and great servers. I haven't had food here I didn't like, and I have never had bad service. Maddie is such a rock star, she is always on top of things, very attentive, serves with a smile and good for a few laughs. I know when I'm looking for a good meal and great service to stop here, they won't disappoint. Today I tried teriyaki chicken tacos and I wish I had gotten another order of them, they were just that darn good. I'll definitely be getting those again. Kudos to the moose for always giving me a wonderful experience! read more

Do better, NE Moose Bar & Grill. You sucked last week. During a family reunion in Minneapolis, a few of the younger generation wanted to go out for Karaoke, a fun night out and to get a feel for the city night life. Unfortunately, security at the door was immediately hostile, obstructive and non-communicative. Beginning with the struggle to understand how an Indiana ID works, the group was refused entrance, told they were aggressive for asking why they weren't allowed into the bar and treated horribly. Despite having several amazing days enjoying our gorgeous city, this incident at NE Moose Bar and Grill left everyone (including the Mpls family!) with a bad impression. I won't be back, I'll share my opinion widely, and I don't recommend anyone bring their awesome out of town cousins to NE Moose Bar and Grill! May I add that the group was in their mid twenties to early thirties and included a middle school math teacher, a special ed teacher, a medical student and two video production professionals. Hardly a difficult group. read more

When happy hour is a rail drink for $2.25, It makes me want to give this place 10 stars instead of 5. A NE dive bar that is nothing short of awesome. Cheap drinks, the fact that you can order tater tots by the pound, karaoke at night, and bingo multiple times a week, what's not to love?! This is a great place to spend time with friends and family or to just be by yourself for an hour or two. They do have outdoor seating and a parking lot available. Otherwise, there is also street parking nearby. read more

There are many things to love about any city, and the dive bars are one of them. This place has everything you'd want in a dive: -Cheap pours -Sticky floors -tots, wings, and more fried things -darts for an evening match -pull tabs to try your luck. There's a parking lot and easy street parking. And even patio seating - and perfect if you have a friend who needs a smoke break. Add it to your route, not every night needs to be fancy, sometimes you just want reliable + cheap. read more

The best thin crust pizza in northeast Minneapolis, actually the best pizza in the twin cities. Only old world pizza in IGH comes close or the now closed Savoy on 7th downtown St. Paul. Great crust, sauce and toppings!!! Side note, the staff is always good. The owner is outstanding!!! The wings are the best as well other than smoked wings ( Smokey's forest lake). Great homemade ranch at the Moose!!! Club sandwich and homemade soups!! You can not go wrong at the Moose!! read more

We've been going here for 10 years. Last night was the last visit. there was a heightened alert of security causing an unsafe vibe. We witnessed one guy ask security to watch him walk to bathroom, and witnessed fights break out with folks being choke held and escorted out. Front door was blocked off and cops outside. Had to wait 40 min to be able to exit. There was a lot of sketchy behavior all around with a lot of innocent, uncomfortable and many oblivious bar goers. We had a group of 6, from all different backgrounds and genders. We all felt unsafe. 2 of my friends got pushed around from the fights that broke out. Watch your surroundings inside and out if you do visit. Otherwise, avoid and take business elsewhere. read more

It was a football Sunday afternoon and the place was packed with locals watching the Vikings game. I came here because, as an out-of-towner, I wanted to experience my first meat raffle. It was a success. After downing a Grain Belt and listening to the patrons cheer on various touchdowns, I ended up winning a $20 gift card to a local meat market (only paid like $10 in raffle tickets to get to that point). I'd definitely never complain if I was invited back to the Moose Bar & Grill, especially on a Sunday when they have $5 baskets of wings, cheap beer and meat raffles. read more

I came here with a bunch of friends for a celebratory event. We ordered plenty of booze and played darts, and sang karaoke. The service was friendly and good. Bartenders were friendly and accommodating for your orders. The atmosphere is fun but not chaotic nor obnoxious. Unfortunately when it came to the food I wasn't too pleased. I ordered some Ghost wings and got Buffalo wings with a tiny bit more of a kick. Not at all what I wanted especially for a heat freak like me. The Burger was just fine, not bad but not great. The burger I got came with bacon, tomato, lettuce and and egg. I personally love a good runny egg in my burger and thus burger achieves that. Another thing I noticed about the burger was that the beef patty is pretty thick so be prepared to adjust your jaw! Overall I had a great time there and made good memories and might make some more down tge line. But speaking in terms of food it's pretty average. read more

Moose Bar & Grill - Burger and chips - American Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Don't come here if you're a man or a non-stick thin woman during a Friday or Saturday night. The bouncers are notorious for finding excuses in an ambiguous and selectively-imposed "dress code" to only let in their aesthetically-desired customers. Discriminatory and downright creepy. Plus, despite the cheap price on the drinks, it's still not worth it due to their relative lack of strength. Definitely do not recommend for a weekend night. read more
