We have brought together an exceptional roster of bars and restaurants around the Twin Cities as our official “Loons Watch Spots.” Take a look at our complete list of locations to do some serious birdwatching and cheer on MNUFC.
LessAccording to this fine establishment’s website, the Midway Saloon has a “no frills” atmosphere, while in the very next breath just casually mentioning their dance floor, pool tables, and live music. With 50 different beers on tap and 200 different whiskeys to choose from, we say it's time to stop being so modest, Midway…you sound plenty frilly enough to be a fan-friendly spot to see a match. See ya ‘round, neighbor.
There’s the Loons, and there’s The Loop. But, when their powers combine, it creates a phrase to bring fans together: Loons at The Loop! As an official watch spot for Minnesota United, The Loop’s West End location is ready to take in any Loons fan for a matchday that offers a modern atmosphere, a fully-stocked bar, and gourmet dishes to satisfy each person’s quest for a victorious culinary experience!
For the fan that craves those local favorites, Ray J’s in Northeast Minneapolis definitely fits the bill. The generously sized wings are always a favorite and their Juicy Lucy rivals some of the best burgers the area has to offer. And now, Loons fans can sample all those comforts of home that Ray J’s has to offer, while watching the Loons kick it on the pitch.
A Twin-Cities landmark that claims the suburbs as home, now can claim the same for Loons matches and fans that want to watch. Stop in early to get a pre-match warm up in at their bowling alley, or just see the match and grab a pitcher for a post-match cool down. Win, lose, or draw, Park Tavern has plenty of ways for all Loons fans to catch a match or celebrate a victory, accordingly.
If you’re looking for expertly-crafted cocktails, deliciously-crafted dishes, and Loons-crafted action for matchday, Stanley’s is your manly. With a new outdoor patio to boot, Stanley's is surely the place to be for an MNUFC matchday.
Pub fare doesn’t get much better than the tasty offerings of this asymmetrical ale house in downtown Minneapolis. No matter what pub grub you decide to nosh on, the Loons match will be on the telly.
A West Bank Minneapolis institution since 1906, Palmer’s Bar definitely isn’t your run-of-the-mill, Applebee-esque happy hour spot. This iconic spot has always gone by the motto “everyone is welcome,” and it’s an honor to count Loons fans amongst those welcome to catch a match at the legendary establishment.
If you know Wes Burdine, then you likely know the Black Hart’s stance on the beautiful game. If you don’t know Wes Burdine, which seems unlikely, just know that his Black Hart of Saint Paul continues to uphold the long legacy of this Midway neighborhood location’s status as a soccer haven to the LBGTQ+ community.
From the polished wood aesthetics of the space to the wide array of whiskies behind the bar, you’ll find no lack of Irish authenticity, or Loons fans, at this downtown Minneapolis fixture.
For those into footy ball in old St. Paul, the Iron Ranger on Grand Avenue has a flair for making finely-crafted cocktails and pitch-perfect views of the Loons in action.
