Nick and Eddie is located in Loring Park, walking distance from The Walker Art Center, the Convention Center and the downtown Minneapolis Skyway system.

Nick and Eddie is a sleek joint with a view of the picturesque pond. On any given night, it’s a post gallery-opening party, a place for business execs, romantic couples, chic divorcees, and young professionals at the handsome L-shaped bar. It’s a spare Euro–chic place with white walls, high ceilings, and an ancient terrazzo floor, softened by flocked wall coverings by the British haute design house Osborne and Little and yards of black speakers—a state of the art sound system. The cozy booths, four-tops, and bustling front bar give it a must-see-and-be-seen intimacy. Named for the original establishment in New York, Nick and Eddie conjures up the much-missed Loring Bar and Cafe, though it’s more polished, understated, and, shall we say, grown-up? [Beth Dooley]
