Hungry for an off the beaten path Minneapolis food experience? Join us as we explore a pair of the city's trendy and historical neighborhoods, the Mill District and St Anthony Main in Northeast Minneapolis. We'll take you through the founding and growth of the "City of Flour and Sawdust" while following in the footsteps of immigrants who came to work the mills. You'll enjoy sampling food at the first Thai restaurant in Minnesota, authentic Italian pizza, home-made ice cream, divine baked goods, and the best matcha you'll ever drink. In addition to sampling food, we will also stroll by the local Farmers Market, Mill City Museum and Guthrie Theater. You'll enjoy gorgeous views of St Anthony Falls as we walk along the Stone Arch Bridge into historical St Anthony Main. Learn about the history of both neighborhoods while touring the oldest street in Minneapolis. Get to know your fellow food-loving guests while gaining an appreciation for distinct neighborhoods that most tourists never see!

Brian was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. It was a very pleasant and fun experience..
Mary, thank you for taking the time to review your positive experience on our Minneapolis Riverwalk Food Tour with Brian. We'd love to see you back on another tour!
We totally enjoyed our tour. Brian was great and livu g in Minnesota all my life and at 68 years old I learned a lot. The food choices were fabulous. I will make it a point to return.
Barbara, thank you for your kind review. We always enjoy hearing that local guests learn something new, just as we love learning from our guests. We look forward to seeing you again!
My wife and I had a pleasant tour with three other couples. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Food portions were the right size and gave us a good spectrum of downtown restaurants
John, thank you very much for your kind review. We're so happy you and your wife enjoyed the Minneapolis Riverwalk Food Tour. We'll be sure to pass along your review to Michelle, your guide, who we think is pretty great too. You're welcome back any time!
I had a great time. Heather was wonderful. The people on my tour with us were just great. The food was really good. Just don’t eat breakfast before. Maybe a early light breakfast
Thank you for taking the time to review our Minneapolis Riverwalk Food Tour with your guide, Heather. We're happy you enjoyed the food (flavor and quantity!) and the other tour guests. We'd love to see you again when you're in the area!
Enjoyable food and an informative tour leader. Lots of walking and some hills.
Thank you for your review of our Minneapolis Riverwalk Food Tour. We hope to see you again!
Excellent experience with Brian as our guide - both for locals who do not otherwise walk in this area, and out of town guests; I greatly enjoyed learning more about the history of the Minnesota and our Twin Cities. The narration during the walks was important and the route, walking through the mill district and over the bridge from west of the Mississippi River to the east side, was informative and beautiful (picturesque views!) It is always worth being reminded that the land we stand on carries the history, culture, and continued presence of its Indigenous peoples, and that nature is not only beautiful (Minnesota actually has over 11,000 lakes!), but also worthy of deep respect and protection for current and future generations. In addition to crossing the bridge over the mighty Mississippi River, we learned of the history bridging centuries, and cultures, which to me reinforced how being on the right side of humanity demands courage, during some periods more so than others; calling out injustice and giving voice to just causes has long been an awesome aspect of Minnesota life. Thank you for the great tour and choices of venues to visit! I highly recommend this tour (if feasible, consider a way to offer a discounted price so that even more can enjoy!).
Great guide, very knowledgeable and interesting. Food was excellent, great value for a 3 hour tour
Thank you so much for your review of our Minneapolis Riverwalk Food Tour! We're so happy you enjoyed the experience. We hope to see you again!
Wonderful tour with fantastic food delights. Brian did a great job of showing us some very interesting and unique areas of Minneapolis. He has a very thorough knowledge base of the area and he tied the food items in with the stories. We sampled many delicious foods from unique Ethnic restaurants and learned about how Immigrants brought so much culture, business knowhow and their special food items to the US. We highly recommend this tour.
