City PagesJuly 13, 2012Voted Best Beer List by City Pages in 2012! The coffee is excellent, but here you'll find pints that you will most-likely not see anywhere else in MN. Also- the outdoor patio is one of the cutest- City PagesAugust 5, 2014Hot dogs come two to an order for about five bucks, and they get all the details right, from the classic snap of the casing to the sauerkraut spiked with fennel seeds, just to give it a little edge.

Lorena W.October 10, 2014Stopped in after my chiropractic appointment for a breakfast. I ordered the malted mocha and pumpkin pecan maple cream muffin! Also, bought some espresso for a recipe.
Tiffany RuppOctober 6, 2017Went for dinner but only ended up getting apps because we were short on time. The salad with goat cheese and the sliders were fantastic. The only thing that was a bit sub standard was the service.
Joel CJune 6, 2015Not! the best beer list in town- go to Yard House instead for 140 beers on tap. This place has a great vibe but I disagree on the beer selection comments.
I think all the food is great! The people and owners make this place not only a great place to hang but the food and great surly beer brings in a great mix for a greet evening. Check it out!- City PagesMay 16, 2014The Breakfast Poutine and a Bloody Mary from Muddy Waters are just the thing you'll need after a wild night out - voted Best Cure for a Hangover by City Pages Best of 2014!
Sarah HaleyApril 10, 2012Guinness Chocolate Ginger Cake: a gooey slab of sweetness soaking in butter rum raisin sauce, topped with ginger whipped cream. $6. Pair it with a Tallgrass Buffalo Sweat milk stout.- City PagesJanuary 26, 2015If you have tried their Breakfast Poutine already (voted Best Cure for a Hangover 2014,) then you must try their Breakfast Burger!

Brandon SullivanJuly 29, 2013It's a little spendy, but not for what it is. Every dollar I've spent there has been worth it. Tasty food, decent atmosphere, and great variety of beers and ciders.
METRO magazineMay 23, 2012Order the breakfast pizza, which boasts a superior crust and comes blanketed with soft scrambled eggs, bacon, your choice of whatever else you like and just the faintest hint of marinara to anchor. Read more
Leon Van EckAugust 10, 2014Great atmosphere, and the service is really excellent. We had the pork loin the scallop seafood special, and both were divinely delicious.
Jessica BraunJuly 2, 2011French toast bread pudding is amazing! Breakfast pizza is men. The crust is flavorless and dry. But all around awesome experience. Good service, great lighting, and of course, good coffee.
Great food and drinks. Topped off with the bacon plate paired with a malbec. Muddy Waters moves to the top of my list of favorite restaurants in Minneapolis.
Juanita AlvarezOctober 1, 2012On a nice day, they open the huge front 'garage door' and you can soak up the sunshine. Order the wonderful fajitas and people watch on Lyndale
Cole KennedyFebruary 23, 2017Solid date spot. Food menu is good for sharing plates and the beer list is long as a giraffe's neck.
Sharifa SimonSeptember 7, 2014Great atmosphere. The patio is nicely private away from the sidewalk. I believe it's pet friendly. Great staff!
Ham pear and brie is my fav...mention this tip when you come see me at The Uptown Hair District for 20% off your first visit! 612.355.5250
Lauren MelcherJanuary 19, 2016Great place for a first date -- you can get wine, beer, coffee, food, anything you want.
Best beer selection around, and the yucca fries are really, really good! Try the Steel Toe IPA. Also, the coffee bar has a lot of plugins
ZachJanuary 9, 2013The fish tacos are amazing! A favorite any time I visit the metro area. Also try the sour beer if you're adventurous!
Patti CliftonMarch 16, 2014All good food! Thai coconut pizza is yummmmmmy! John loved the Mexican hot dogs
Brian GovatosMay 8, 2013Order the Dublin Donkey (no relation to the Donkey Punch). It's Powers, ginger beer, and lime. It's perfect.
Gina GiampaoloAugust 13, 2014The Guinness ginger cake with rum butter raisin sauce might be THE BEST cake in the city.
Rebecca MazzaJune 2, 2017Opens early and great bloody Mary's! Make reservations because it gets busy.
Sarah MalikJanuary 5, 2013Larry was an awesome and super attentive server. Salmon dish was great, kale was super salty but everything else was awesome!
Happy hour 3-5, get the General Tso's wings and a $2 pint of Grain Belt.
Arun D'SouzaNovember 20, 2015Their Lamb Kabobs and Yucca Fries are amazing! Great late night hangout!
Cody KiserSeptember 16, 2012Amazing everything & trust the staff. They have great recommendations for what's best on a well thought out menu
yucca fries are not where it is at. however, muddy has some of the best made house condiments in the city so take advantage of it!
Greg AFebruary 3, 2013Great bar, restaurant, coffee shop combo. No matter what you are looking for, Muddy will have it.
MattSeptember 18, 2011Ask for a beer reco and go outside your comfort zone. Bartenders know what they're doing and the beer selection is unmatched.
Ian AizmanDecember 12, 2014Great selection of local beer. Surly 8 is outstanding. Fun laid back vibe.
Jody HakalaJune 28, 2012Yucca fries thee best! Mussels delicious. The waitress Cate is really on top of things and she's lovely.
Rachel BlanfordJuly 21, 2013Pear and brie croissant sandwich is amazing, especially with the cottage bacon (like ham).
Beer drinkers rejoice! Muddy's is the only place you can find " steel toe ". From steel toe brewery. It's local and only available here! Try it while it lasts!
Tatyana FisherNovember 30, 2013Ask for framboise du nord beer and pair it wit their cheese & meat plate.
Not your average bar food. Terrific menu. Food is very fresh and well prepared. Compliments to the chef.- Lorena W.December 8, 2014The asparagus crepes were delicious and so was meeting Dessa and Sims from Doomtree!
- Leib YardleyDecember 12, 2014Great beer selection. A fun vibe that automatically makes you feel welcome.
Michèle Davis, PhDOctober 7, 2012Great pot roast and Cuban dog. Amazing beer selection and server was great.
The 4onthefloorSeptember 6, 2012Have a Johnny Takedown : pint glass, Jim Beam Rye, splash of cran, optional cherry. One of BD1's fav drinks here!
IsameowSeptember 13, 2014Enjoyed the arugula salad. Strange that hot coffee came in a beer glass with a sleeve.
