So when I spent the weekend in the Twin Cities, I couldn't wait to try the famous burger that I had heard so much about. I tried originals from Matt's Bar, the 5-8 Club and The Nook while I was there... more

Some fellow seminarians had made several excursions to The Nook over the past several years when we've had class in the Twin Cities, but this was the first time that I was able to join them.

At least the guys at the Nook shake things up- the Juicy Lucy is great with the cheese inside the burger, the fries are good, and the root beer was delicious. Thank you for a great meal. more

Go here if you're looking to have a juicy-lucy....they are very good. They have a chalkboard wait list system handled by the bartender.

Great beer and burger joint. I take all out of town guests there and they like the casual, neighborhood atmosphere and great burgers. I'm not all that crazy about the fries though. Not crispy enough. more
