Urban Oasis for a Peaceful Stroll! Centennial Lakes is a…read moregreat outing, earning five stars from me. I wanted a nice place to stretch my legs, and this park was just right. The paved paths make for an easy and accessible walk, suitable for a quick escape or a leisurely stroll. What really stood out to me was how quiet it felt. Even with buildings in the background, the park feels remarkably peaceful. The gentle sound of water, the rustling of leaves, and the overall calm let you forget you're in a busy area. It's a fantastic bubble of serenity. The scenery mixes urban sophistication with natural beauty. Modern buildings create a sleek backdrop for the beautifully designed waterways and landscaped grounds. Even without full bloom, you can see a real commitment to diverse plants here. I can't wait for a return visit in the spring! I can only imagine how bright and colorful it gets when everything is in full bloom. If you want a peaceful place to clear your mind, enjoy some fresh air, and take a nice walk, Centennial Lakes is a must-visit. Whether you have 15 minutes or an hour, it's the perfect spot. I left feeling refreshed and energized. I can't wait to see it come to life in the spring!

I got the shrimp and corn bread and fried kale. I've never had fried kale but it was SO good! My boyfriend got a burger and said it wasn't life changing, but it was definitely a solid burger. The waitress informed us that the menu would be changing soon! Looking forward to seeing what other delicious options they can come up with! I will say, I tried the crab dip and it just tasted too fishy... and I love seafood! The food here overall surprised us though, we definitely thought it wasn't going to be that great for a mini golf place! We were wrong! As for golfing here, WHAT A BLAST! We did all 4 courses! That took us about 2 hours during a time where it was not busy. The great news about this place is you do not need to play the holes in order! Heck, the people in your party don't have to play in order either! So if someone is in the bathroom, just keep going! Everyone is assigned a ball and the ball keeps track of your score! This place is beautiful! It is well maintained! The service here was decent. No one seemed to be going out of their way and they all just looked bored...may be because it was a slow night? (Thursday). Overall we had an absolute BLAST and I would happily come back!!

The Links at Dred Scott is one of the best mini golf courses in the Twin Cities. Some of the things…read moreI love about this course is the variety of obstacles, whether it be ricocheting your ball off a rock to make a turn, launching over a water hazard or trying to make the hole on top of a plateau, this course has it all. I also love the very last hole, if you get a hole in one you win a free round!!! One down side is they only except cash, I'm not sure why, with today technology its soo easy to set up your business to make it credit friendly. Tip: After 9:00pm you can save $2 off, visit website for coupon. Also they have lights for night golfing.

My family stopped by for a game of mini golf on a Saturday evening at 6 pm before our dinner…read morereservation. The course is old and easy, but we have played it before and liked it. This time it was a disaster. Completely overrun by little kids who treated the course like a playground. Some had parents who were present and not trying to keep any order. In fact, we had adults just standing around the holes we were playing. When I asked one lady if she could move, she asked why! People were running around randomly playing--total chaos. An employee walked through and did nothing. If I was looking for a jungle gym for my small children, ok, but DO NOT COME HERE TO PLAY A ROUND OF MINI GOLF. You can't!

We held my son's birthday party there on a Friday night with 12 kids in attendance. All of the staff were so helpful, kind, and patient. The kitchen went out of its way to accommodate a challenging dietary restriction, which I truly appreciated. It wasn't as busy as a Saturday or Sunday, which made it easier to keep track of the kids and likely contributed to the staff being so accommodating.

Drinks range from wine to bear to alcohol from Black brands. Service: Customer service was always been top notch from the bartenders and owner was so helpful in providing overview of the game, local culture/clubs, MN having the most golf courses which shocked the hell out of us. He have us basic lessons, advice on clubs for women and beginners, stance, what par meant, and hand positioning. Overall personable guy and went out his way to ensure we were good and had some background about golf and MN golf culture. Very genuine. Let the record reflect that I'm not saying that because he's from Chicago (the best city to Eva do it ) ijs Price: Very reasonably priced with options to golf for 30 mins increments. We paid 80 for 1.5 hours which was just enough time. I'm not sure about the food so I've included a menu. I didnt order anything personally this time around. Ambiance: It was an overall great experience for my 2nd time around. Last Summer that had a mixed with a DJ and it was a great turn out. Intergenerational crowd with lots of photo worthy spaces and seating areas. Very comfortable high top tables and lounge area with open space to mingle. They have great artwork, open spaces yet felt inviting for times when networking is appropriate. It would be great for corporate events or mixers. Great lightening, private party spaces and the bar area is nice. I'm glad I remained open to trying it out again after delcaring "golf wasn't my ministry" I just needed a lil more education and hands on basics. I look forward to what's in store for Par365 10/10 would recommend!

If you're looking for a spot where little kids can feel like PGA champs (with a lot of parental…read moreassist), this indoor mini golf course is a gem. The vibe is part Northwoods cabin, part whimsical putt-putt wonderland--with twinkle lights overhead, fake pine trees, and just enough obstacles to keep it interesting without causing a tiny human meltdown. The highlight? Watching my kiddo in his sunhat take his "pro swing" with a bright orange putter--while Dad provided a hands-on golf lesson that was equal parts adorable and chaotic. (Note: teaching patience on a par-2 hole is an Olympic-level parenting event.) Course is clean, staff was friendly, and the layout made it easy to play without constantly bumping into other families. Bonus points for the fact that it's indoors--so Minnesota weather can't ruin your plans. Would I recommend? Absolutely. Whether you're chasing hole-in-ones or just trying to get a kid to hit the ball in the general direction of the cup, it's a win for all ages. I'll be back for the driving range later. Try them out!

The atmosphere is calm and quiet, which makes it easy to enjoy without feeling rushed or crowded. The driving range is a great deal in the summer for $18 for an hour--well worth it for the quality of the facility and the overall experience. We've also tried the mini golf, which is super easy and casual, but still a lot of fun (and super affordable too). Whether you're looking to get some practice in or just hang out with friends, Golf Zone is a solid choice.

NOT YOUR MOTHER'S MINI GOLF! Skyline Mini Golf is a little…read morewacky and unconventional compared to your average mini-golf, but if you're a mini-golf fan, it's a must do! Pay at the front desk at the Walker Art Center and then take the elevator to the 7th floor to play. An attendant will give you your club, ball and score card there. There are a wide selection of ball colors to choose from, which makes it fun. I chose neon pink. :) One huge attraction of this mini golf is the fact that it's on the rooftop and there are views all around of the city. The first play was using your club as a cue on a billiards table to direct the ball into the pockets/holes. (See my photos). Another play was tipping a tilt table to get your golf ball around a maze and into the hole. I failed miserably at that one! It's a pretty short course, but very different, very artsy. Don't expect it to be anything like you've played before. We played the 10 holes for $12 (Summer 2024).

The space is vibrant, playful, and beautifully designed -- there's something fun to look at around every corner. The staff is consistently warm, welcoming, and all smiles, which makes the experience even better. For drinks, I ordered The Revitalizer, a zero-proof cocktail that basically tastes like a piña colada (my favorite!) -- smooth, sweet, and absolutely perfect. My husband went with the Rock & Rye Old Fashioned, which was light, smooth, and super easy to sip. We kept it simple with the Chips & Dip and House Cut Fries, and both delivered. The guacamole was fresh and flavorful, paired with perfectly toasted, well-seasoned chips. The fries were out of this world -- hot, crispy, and served with a delicious Sriracha ketchup. I also tried the horseradish mustard aioli (not pictured), and it was SO good with the fries. We always have a wonderful time here and keep coming back for the great vibes, tasty bites, and consistently amazing service!

We started play around 2:30pm. They also have great views of the Nickelodeon Universe. (Amusement park) definitely recommend this on a cold day in the twin cities!

Service was fast. Our server checked on us many times to make sure we were taken care of. Great service. To the point that I just finished my plate and he instantly took the plate away as well. lol Food all tasted good. Zucchini fries is soft in the inside and a little crispy on the outside. I wish it was crispier. Brussels sprout was good but a little burnt. Fish is crispy and good. The burger was good as well. Price is reasonable. Definitely worth going but just mind the loud ambient

We saw the burger of the month in December was a tater-tot hotdish burger online and man did it look like a 10/10. We drove about 30 minutes and ordered two along with a past and red sauce kids meals. While we waited we ordered a flight to try several options: the peanut butter bear was amazing, the cider / seltzers were good (Sherbet was the best) but the sugar cookie was meh. Once our good arrived a was already bummed as it didn't look like the photo. The burgers weren't cooked to order and overall there wasn't a lot of flavor for a burger with so much going on. I felt like it needed more goop....that's the best part of a hotdish, the glue. The past with red sauce wasn't well received but kids are kids. It didn't look amazing, but I didn't except much. With the menu being as big as it is I wouldn't mind coming back and trying something else, but I'm not in a rush to return.
