Reviews for Bunny's Bar & Grill:

Ratings_icons fun game room

Kristin R. | insider Insider | Rank: 17,284

Bunny's has pretty good food, and a great (but fairly small) outdoor patio. There is also a pretty nice game room. Unfortunately it is hard to find a time when this place isn't super crowded.

Bunny's has great food and good service. It has a typical sports bar atmosphere with a more middle aged crowed. There is a game room and lots of TVs to watch whatever sports you like. They have a really good brunch and good bloody Mary's. We go often. I would suggest it for watching your next big event.

I see that Bunny's is listed as a "dive bar". Man, that makes me really really sad that we here in the Twin Cities area are relegading a solid neighborhood establishment such as Bunny's into the category of "Dive".

Dive, to me, signifies dark, smoky, where the purpose if getting drunk. Bunny's, esp in it's new location, is bright, happy, and although it's not trendy (thus I suspect it being relagaded to "Dive" status), it's clientelle is middle to upper-middle class. The drinks are not expensive, the food is reasonable (try the buffallo drummies) and the conversation is down to earth. The crowd here tens to be 30s-40s, the wait staff attentive, the music is not loud. Oh, did I mention the prices are reasonable?

Downside, it's not a trendy pickyp bar, and sometimes it's so popular (especially happy hours 5-6) that you might have to park on the street.

Pros: Value!

Cons: Parking

Ratings_icons Best sports bar in Twin Cities

Bunny's is the best! Good bar food at good prices, good selection of tap beers (with a rotating `beer of the month'). The atmosphere is quintessential Minnesota. Everyone at the bar is chatty, including the bartenders--the best "Wiz" works at the far end of the bar. You can never be sure who you'll talk to at the bar, but I've never had a dull conversation there. Great place to go alone or with friends. Casual atmosphere..though some people do dress up.

Pros: Most everything!

Cons: Sometimes you need to park on the street

Ratings_icons Best Neighborhood Sports Bar!

Bunny's is a staple. A great place to go for really any location. They've added several new flat screen TV's in the past couple years, so it's great for watching any sporting event. Great popcorn, fantastic FREE taco bar during regular and late-night happy hours and the breakfast can pull you into eating there for lunch and dinner in the same day! Food Rec's: Daunte's Inferno, any Pizza, Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, the Hot Dog, Cobb Salad (enormous) and they have a Tuesday night Sandwich Special, the Shaved Prime Rib Sandwich (ask for horseradish). Yes, it's bar food...but it's great!

Pros: Food and Drinks

Cons: Parking Lot can get cramped

Ratings_icons Free taco bar at 10pm

Bunny's works for me. It's loud, neighborhood joint. Not a pick up place, lots of families and large groups. Free taco bar at 10pm. Excellent pizzas. Great lasagna and daily specials. Lots of parking. it's all good.

Ratings_icons Friendly bar with above average food (most items)

Too bad the only place to smoke if it rains is right in front of the door....but "most" people are friendly enough about it. The few who are rude, really are crass about it! Fun and friendly atmosphere. This is a casual and friendly place...not fancy, no pretense. Sometimes that is "just what you are looking for". Staff seems to work hard. When they close the back portion of the place down, they aren't exactly "accomodating and friendly about it" tho'. Too bad - but "business is business" I guess. Overall a pleasant experience...especially for FRIENDLINESS of patrons and staff.

Pros: Most everyone is very very friendly.

Cons: No smoking area if it rains - except front door.

Staff is nice, food is good but this place, overall, bores me. The crowd tends to be softball teams or Edina High School class of 1995. So that's losers, and more losers. Seriously, try this place out on a holiday night and it'll be Edina HS Alumni. I have nothing against this type. It's amusing to watch. If you do, STAY CLEAR!

Pros: service, food

Cons: boring clientele

Ratings_icons Not the same anymore

Since Bunny's moved to it's new location, the food has not been the same. In fact, my favorite Bunny's entree was the Prime Rib Sandwich. At first it looks like an Arbys sandwich. But then you taste it. This sandwich is to Arbys as the Mona Lisa is to grafitti on a bus stop.

The last time I was there they told me that sandwich was no longer on the menu. I ordered the French Dip and it was lousy. I have not been back since. No Prime Rib means no business from me. Bring it back and I will change my review accordingly.

Pros: Great Value

Cons: Smoky

Ratings_icons First impressions are great!!

maddrr

I went out to breakfast once here and the food is great. I was very impressed with the service and the food. They have excellent American Fries. I knew it had to be a good place to eat if there was a line outside of it 1/2 hour before it opened. You seat yourself and the waitress comes to you. If you are a drinker some of the breakfast's come with free drinks.

Pros: great food, seat yourself, nice atmosphere

Cons: Occas. slow service, Bar atmosphere

Ratings_icons good food, better nightlife spots around

michelle123

This place is great for a morning or afternoon meal. They have very good food. The proportions are large and the prices are great. There are better spots to go if you're looking to experience "true nightlife." This would be the type of place you would go TO if you were wanting to where a sweatshirt and jeans for a "low key" night.

Pros: cheap, good food, great sports coverage

Cons: no dancing
