Get around

Almost all streets and avenues in SE Minneapolis are numbered, except for a few named on or around the University of Minnesota campus. Most of this area follows the same river-aligned grid as downtown. Like downtown, streets parallel the river and avenues are perpendicular to it. Younger people might have fun visiting the famous Dinkytown area and hanging out at a coffee shop. It's located nearby 14th Ave and 4th St SE.

  • Hard Times Cafe, located in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood (blocks from the University of Minnesota's campus). This all-vegetarian cooperatively-owned diner is a haven for punks, anarchists, hippies, students, and anyone wanting mile-high nachos and wake-the-dead coffee. The entrees range from dirt-cheap to moderate, all in copious amounts, and the bathroom graffiti is art in and of itself. They're open 365 days a year, 22 hours a day--perfect for that pre- or post-bar hangover cure.

Dinkytown

Around 14th Ave and University Ave SE.

  • Loring Pasta Bar. For pasta and an eclectic, very romantic atmosphere, try the descendant of the now-defunct Loring Cafe. Vegetarians welcome. $5-$15.

  • Kitty Cat Klub. A swanky nightspot. $5-$15.
  • Annie's. Burgers and malts. $5-$15.
