About this restaurant

A Minneapolis neighborhood classic since 2007, Blackbird is your cheerful and lively all-day restaurant, serving seasonally inspired plates that celebrate Midwestern roots. We feature craft beers and a thoughtful wine list, perfectly paired with our fresh takes on local and farm-to-fork standards.

Reservations are welcome for dinner anytime, and for weekday breakfast and lunch (weekend brunch is non-reservable). We also have a few stools at our friendly little bar, and have a tasty little snack-driven happy hour Monday through Saturday from 2pm-5pm.

Please Note: Our cozy dining room can get quite lively during dinner, full of laughter and life, between 6:30-9:30 -
especially on weekends. If noise level is a concern for you or your companions, we recommend making an early evening reservation.
