Featuring generous happy hour specials, a weekend Bloody Mary Bar, ample patio seating and a full menu (home-cooked breakfasts and cheap tacos as highlights), the Spring Street Tavern is indicative of the many unpretentious and affordable drinking/dining options in Northeast Minneapolis.

The bar itself occasionally features DJs and karaoke, though if live music and comedy is more your style, check out Club Underground, offering both options Thursdays through Sundays just below the bar.
