The Depot Tavern

I've only had the fish tacos and a grilled cheese sandwich but they were delicious, as I can only imagine that the rest of the menu is as well . If you're going to be at First Ave , then eat here first.

I was not expecting much from a bar attached to a concert venue but the beer was at a great price and the seared steak tacos blew my mind (but not my wallet!)

The Diamond Dog Corndog is outstanding. Runner up is the inside-out burger . Tots or sweet potato fries ftw!

This is not your typical tavern. Fresh interesting food. Delicious. Turkey lettuce wraps are great.

Who thought you'd ever be able to order a Coconut Curry Chopped Salad at a club that's hosted Garbage and the Suicide Commandos? Read more

Voted Best Hot Dog by City Pages in 2012! If the Diamond Dog were a music act, it would be Lady Gaga- dressed to dazzle. At $9, it may be the most expensive dog in town , but it's well worth it.

Killer happy hour prices. Grilled cheese is the perfect balance of buttery, cheesy and crunchy.

No matter what burger you get (and they are all good) make sure you pair them with SPF's. The Depot Tavern has amazing sweet potato fries .

Good burgers and fries . Tricky to get a table since most folks are waiting for a show to start. Be patient...especially if you're hungry.

Try the red bean and rice burger ! I can't stop thinking about it! Tasty and filling. Also, go for the fries ! Very vegan-friendly establishment.

good music , good poutine , and an adorable tattooed girl smiling at me ;-) no complaints.

Poutine potato skins are an epic win! Also, why buy your First Ave tickets anywhere else? You get $1 in Depot Dollars for every ticket you buy.

Best BLT I have ever had. Grilled cheese are great as well .

Great preshow spot to hang out and also buy tickets to shows at First Ave locations.

Holy hell, their cheese curds and poutine are DELICIOUS.

Voted Best Place to Drink Before a Twins Game by City Pages in 2011! They have a great drink special from 11a.m to 11p.m. Especially good are their diamond dogs

Avoid the crowd but still get the grilled cheese and tots with delivery from www.bitesquad.com. Save $5 off your first order with coupon code FOURSQUARE.

Great beer selection - try the Surly Furious. If you order the fried cheese curds , be sure to ask for all three dipping sauces - you'll have a tough time figuring out which is your favorite.

Vegetarian or not, get the vegan duck tacos . And if you're really hungry add on sweet potato fries with the caramelized onion ketchup .

Try the Diamond Dog - "They call them the diamond dogs ." Hot dog wrapped in pepper bacon & deep fried, on top of pretzel bun .

We got a pound of fries and cauliflower wings (bbq ) SO GOOD

The wedge salad and Guinness beer cheese soup are a excellent one two combo.

Guinness cheese soup was great!

Try the Diamond Dog : a quarter-pound all-beef hot dog wrapped in pepper bacon and deep fried, served on a pretzel bun . Sounds like a heart attack, but its delicious.

Awesome rachael and grilled cheese , and you have to include the sweet potato fries

The bread pudding is awesome!

Try the three dipping sauces with hand cut fries ! (you even get an option of sweet potatoe fries )favorite server is LeAnn =)

Plenty of beer options for you before you see the show next door.

The jamaican jerk wings are great! Cucumber sauce is amazing.

Tater tots and cheese curds (they're spicy !)

They add a surcharge to your bill if you use a credit card. This is often against the TOS agreed upon between CC companies & businesses. If you're charged such a fee, report it to your CC company.

Get the purple rain drink and steak tacos

Awesome place to get the best fries and a beer after a show next door.

Attention vegetarians : The Mock Duck Tacos are the beat decision you can make. DO IT.

Best cheese curds in town , and I really don't even like cheese curds .

I really like their veggie burger (and I'm not typically the type to have one).

I heard christa might b one of the BEST bartenders in town !

Guinness cheese soup ! Guinness cheese soup ! Guinness cheese soup !!!!!!!
