Taste of Rondo Bar & Grill

Take your friends or family out to a ballgame. Catch a game (and maybe a home run) with the MLB Minnesota Twins at Target Field. This sports team is named after the two great Twin Cities and shares the same fighting spirit, winning three World Series championships and numerous other titles.

You can let your wild ones run free at the Como Park Zoo and Conservatory. Admission is free, although donations are suggested. See exhibits and attractions that house the big cats, the primates, the exotic birds, the hoofed creatures, the wild wolves and even polar bears. Head over to the Conservatory afterward to see, smell and possibly taste plants from all over the world.

Turn your coffee break into a coffee experience. Kopplin’s Coffee offers coffee, espresso and chocolate specialty drinks as well as delectable, freshly-made baked goods and deli edibles. This Fair Trade establishment prides itself on providing the purest, most flavorful beverages in a warm aesthetic environment.

Whether you are looking for a wedding venue, the right spot to propose or just looking for a romantic first date, head over to Rice Park. The tranquil fountain and lovely landscaping create a peaceful, lovely mood—and is even more romantic in the evening or at night. Take a walk along the pathways or have a seat on one of the benches.
