United States Minnesota Minneapolis

The 1029 Bar

A popular tavern known for its casual vibe offering a wide selection of brews, live entertainment, and famous for its appearance on a TV food show.

Tips from the community

While Minneapolis is ripe with pubs touting bar bingo nights, few do it as well as the 1029 Bar. This retro Nordeast dive serves up award-winning lobster rolls, plenty of beer, and fun game nights that could earn you a serious wad of cash.  Bring your date to smash down some lobster mac from the Smack Shack (featured on Diners Drive-ins and Dives), then stick around for some evening entertainment. On Tuesdays and Saturdays, you have a chance to win $1,000 on coverall bingo – plenty of spending money to use on your next date night!
