The Best Combination of Food and Atmosphere in the Twin Cities
The Inn’s Main Dining Room—the centerpiece of the Nicollet Island Inn dining experience—offers guests a chance to gather for work or mingle for private conversation. On any given night, the Inn can play host to both robust business dinners and intimate new engagements or anniversary celebrations.
The Nicollet Island Inn’s kitchen specializes in classic American cuisine — bold steaks and chops, delicate seafood, a variety of luxurious soups, bright salads and tantalizing appetizers. And our burger is perfect.
Perched on the banks of the Mississippi just moments from downtown Minneapolis, the Nicollet Island Inn offers a dining experience unlike any other in the Twin Cities. And it all comes with free parking!
