Had a great experience at Northern Taphouse! The food was excellent, but what really stood out was the service. Tori was incredibly helpful, friendly, and welcoming. Her smile is absolutely contagious and made the whole experience even better. You can tell she genuinely cares about making sure people have a great time. Great food, great atmosphere, and amazing service from Tori. I'll definitely be back! read more

Excellent service. We arrived at 2pm and the staff was able to quickly seat a table of ten....without reservation. The Tap house was moderately busy and the atmosphere was inviting. We took a few minutes to order as the age range of our group was 12-73 years of age. The waitress was kind, and patient as we ordered. After ordering the food came quickly. We had a variety off the menu ranging from Salad to rice bowels and three different types of burgers. The Food and service was excellent! The manager came and asked how the meal was and was very pleasant. Prices were reasonable and portions were huge. I highly recommend this establishment and we will come back again. read more

Although this is my second visit to Northern Taphouse, my last visit was over ten years ago. I have to say that I was impressed. The atmosphere is bright, cheery, and enthusiastic -- although perhaps a bit loud. But then again, it's a sports bar with more televisions than Best Buy. The service was extremely friendly, professional, and competent. All of the waitstaff were hard working and very attentive. Our waitress can around often to bring pop refills and to check on us. The food was typical sports bar faire, but well done. We did not go for the July Bloody Mary of the month ($30!) (see photos), which came with more food than a full day's outing at the Minnesota State Fair. Instead, my wife had been and the Jumbo Bacon Cheddar Chive Tots ($13), which were filling and tasty. The tots were stuffed with bacon, cheddar cheese and chive, and served with aioli. I had the Traditional Bone-in Wings ($16.50) with two sauces - sweet chili, and sticky garlic gochujang. Although both were flavorful, my personal preference was for the sweet chili. All of the wings were juicy and cooked well. I also upgraded to a very large portion of beer battered fries, which were shoe-strong fries. They were cooked well - not greasy or overcooked and very tasty. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal. read more

Been a few times and I think the best way to sum it up is "fine." It's right in the corporate-lunch wheelhouse with inoffensive food and lots of space. The main reason to visit, in my opinion, is the great beer list. Maybe the crazy bloody marys on the weekend brunch if that's your thing. The space is open and pretty expansive with a good horseshoe bar in the middle. Service has always been great so no complaints there! I've gotten burgers, salads, fries, and brussels sprouts. They've all been exactly what you expect from a spot that caters to professionals/workers staying in the attached hotel and families. Not bad, but I don't think I'd recommend the place for food alone. read more

Stopped by Northern Taphouse to try their Burger Week special (pictured); the Big Dill Smash. We were seated almost immediately, and received fast, friendly and efficient service. There were also lots of screens around the restaurant, which made it feel like an elevated sports bar. The burger itself - double smash patties, American cheese, dill pickle cheese curds, fresh pickle-de-gayo, holy dill aioli, dill kettle chip crumble, and fried pickles on a toasted bun - was delicious. It started to lean a bit on the salty side towards the end, but that was to be expected with all those savory toppings. The fries were fresh and crunchy, and the accompanying seasoned sour cream really tied it all together! I would definitely come back to try other things on the menu. read more

MN burger week is what is up!! So glad I made it out to the burbs to have the dill pickle burger. So much incredible dill flavor with so many extras! The dill cheesecurds, and the dill pickles that were fried on top were two of my favorite additions! The aioli was a little too much for me. Burger had super flavor! Alexa was an incredible server! She was super nice, helpful and made great recommendations about the menu! read more

The food was excellent. I would definitely come back for that pizza and I hope they put this burger on the menu. It was therefore Burger week, but I don't know if it's gonna be staying. read more

We came here to celebrate a friend's birthday and had a great time. I hate Bloody Mary drinks, but theirs were so fancy and outrageous that I had to try it, except I substituted Margaritas for the drink part. This ginormous "Big Bad AS$ Bloody" drink made me SO happy. My friends and I had a full on photo shoot with this drink before I even took my first bite - ha! The drink itself wasn't bad, but I loved all of the appetizer sampler items attached to the drink. The adornments included Giant Cheese Curds, Honey Chipotle Dry Rub Chicken Wings, Double Smash Burger Slider, Fried Pickles, Pretzel Bites, Waffle Fries and the sauces were good too... chipotle ranch and Gouda Cheese. Could not finish it, even though 2 friends tried to help me. Food Overall (4/5) Big Bad AS$ Bloody (5/5) Service (3/5) Ambiance (3/5) Service was ok, and I was impressed our server kept all of our orders straight even though we asked for separate bills when we sat down. Ambiance was modern and casual. Think modern sports bar. I especially loved the light fixtures in these matching wooden chandelier looking things. read more

I've had a few great experiences here! The wings are always a go to for me. I feel like they're a good value and they're really nice and juicy. Another favorite would be the Nashville hot mac & cheese. Service is always friendly and I really liked it even when there is a wait they use Yelp's built in waiting list which let you have a live activity on your iPhone screen saying what number you are in line and giving you a progress bar until when your table is ready. Ambience can be quite busy feeling inside, but can be pretty calm outside, which is nice for those summer evenings. I do feel like there are a few too many TVs, but it's just like a buffalo wild wings or any other type of sports bar place as far as that goes. Overall, I would definitely say this is a good place to hang out with friends, or check out on a date night. read more

Not that Northern Taphouse needs another review, but here goes. 5/5 for the staff 4/5 for the food 3/5 for cleanliness 4/5 for accessibility 4/5 for pricing Staff were amazing and friendly. Great recommendations. The food and beer had a large variety. Here's my one problem with the food, it was a bit lack luster in taste and I felt like I could have recreated it at home. I will give it to cheese curds though those were rock solid. Given the portion size I felt like it was similarly priced as a comparable restaurant like a Malones in Maple Grove. The cleanliness I do believe is just a result of how busy the place is. We've tried to come here on a weekend and there's always a wait. 3 of us with a couple beers, a couple appetizers and entrees was only like 120 before tip so it was pretty solid. Their bloodies are amazing and are basically a meal in and of themselves. Will definitely be back. read more

Northern Taphouse - Bloody of the Month: November 2025, the Brunch Bloody! - American Near Me - Plymouth, Minnesota

Their monthly Bloody Mary is ridiculously amazing. Decembers hit it out of the park. Not only does it look great, the seafood was cooked perfectly. Seriously how do you cook bacon wrapped scallops that were cooked perfectly or crab legs that sweet defined them in a tap house. By the way the actual bloody was awesomeness. They have a great bloody menu but now I'm watching for their monthly masterpiece. read more

I only wish this place was closer- it was amazingly good on all levels. Wonderful service- our server was very sweet and just the right amount of attentive. Food was incredible as were the bloody Mary's which is what I was the most interested in. The dill pickle Bloody Mary didn't disappoint! So good. We had one of those, the bloody of the month which was enormous and one spicy. All were good! Love that they have a Bloody Mary of the month. Other food ordered: Ahi Tuna Bowl Nashville chicken Mac and cheese Loaded Tots Omelette Truffle Burger Steak Bowl Steak Salad Excellent menu and food choices. Amazing all around!

Northern Taphouse - Loaded Jumbo Bacon Cheddar Chive Tots - American Near Me - Plymouth, Minnesota

Didn't know you could book online ahead of time. A group of 3, arrived at 5pm, got seated at 6:20. Pay attention to your phone because they only give you 5 minutes to check in when your table is ready. Highly recommend getting on waitlist online. Service was fast. Went here knowing they have monthly Bloody Mary specials. $35 but it's a meal in itself. Waitress asked if we wanted another drink while we wait as it takes time to prep it so we did. For appetizers we got the fill cheese curds and ahi tuna bites. Cute curds should be eaten right away, nothing too special. Recommend the tuna bites, A LOT of flavor. Reminds me of sushi. The Bloody of the month was the El Borracho Bloody. It came out probably 5 minutes after our drinks and appetizer did. Didn't mind that it came fast at all. The mini tacos seem like what you could get at Costco. The elites AB's wrap were good. read more

Someone recommended this place as having a great kids meal so we decided to check it out. Unfortunately for us, we picked a day during March Madness and there was a ridiculous amount of people there. We got added to the waitlist as the 27th party needing a table. PRO TIP: now I know that you can check the waitlist and yourself to the waitlist on Yelp ahead of time! We ended up waiting 1.5 hours, but luckily it was nice enough to spend that time at a playground. Very modern sports bar decor inside. The menu has many things I wanted to try. The kids meals are great, many entree options, plus a drink, 2 sides and an ice cream sundae for $7! My kids liked what they got. I was craving a burger and fries and figured that would be a safe choice at a sports bar; I liked the smash burger and the fries were ok. Like I said, we will be back but will be checking the waitlist first! read more

I brought the fam in for my Dad's birthday last weekend, and we are never disappointed when we come to Northern Taphouse--such a fun, lively atmosphere (especially on football days), friendly staff, and absolutely delicious food.

Very close to work The Beer rotation is good But not amazing Been here many times now and will continue to return. Kind of on the spendy side. Had two beers and a bowl of soup and ended up paying 25 plus. What the what? Inflation getting cray cray. Always crowded. Happy to eke out a barstool every time that I go. They are Untappd Verified, but no badge. Their predecessor had a badge. I think it's $50 a month to be verified and $100 for the badge or something like that. They are doing well enough to afford that. read more

My friend spoke highly of the Woodbury location, but we were closest to this location and were looking for a place for dinner. We tried dill cheese curds (that my friend liked previously), pretzels, and the jalapeño burger. I thought the curds were unnecessarily greasy. I've had MANY curds in my life and these were way too greasy. The pretzels were okay - I actually wondered if they bought the ones in bulk from Costco. Their spicy mustard dip was excellent though. The best part was the burger. Great taste and the bacon was crispy - win! We split that burger and they cut it in half for us. Really appreciated that. Bottom line: I'd go here again for the burger, but I'd skip these two appetizers. read more

It's a 2 1/2 star spot. There's nothing amazing about it. It's a bunch of sugar basted food Pretty much get any of their drinks at any other bar in Minnesota.

Such a delicious and fun spot in Plymouth! We had been trying to go here to enjoy their patio, and we finally got the chance on a Friday for lunch. It was easy and quick to get a spot, and the service was great. For lunch we shared some fried pickles, which were just as delicious as the state fair in my opinion, Deliciously salty and crispy with ranch to dip! I tried a sip of my fiance's bloody, and it was also delicious. It has a bit of spice which I appreciate, I definitely want to try their spicy version. My mom and I split an order of the Walleye tacos, and they even split it into 4 tacos (same amount of meat as 3) so we could each have our own plate. It was the perfect amount for each of us, plus their beer battered fries were delicious. Definitely will be back! read more
