Crooked Pint Ale House - Minneapolis

At 501 Washington Avenue South, Crooked Pint operates as an urban pub and neighborhood restaurant in downtown Minneapolis. Its location differs from the stretch of Hennepin closest to Target Center, so it is worth planning the route from the arena or chosen station. The branch posts regular hours, delivery, and food and drink happy-hour periods; it also says it opens at 9 a.m. when the Vikings have a noon Sunday home game.

The pub advertises special sports viewing on all its TVs and a screen it describes as one of downtown’s largest. The offer is not limited to football: the business presents the room as a place for games and gatherings, while reviews for this location mention sightlines, the sports-bar atmosphere, service, and dishes such as the Juicy Lucy and pizza. On selected dates, the venue warns that an event menu may replace the regular menu, so not every usual item will necessarily be available.

The kitchen lists nearly 60 choices for lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch, plus a children’s menu. Signature options include the Juicy Lucy, pub pot pies, pub tacos, and jumbo tater tots; the bar adds 28 draft beers, wine, bourbon, and scotch. Wednesday movie and music trivia gives groups another reason to visit outside game time. The official page says parties of 12 or more need a credit-card hold and are subject to a 24-hour cancellation policy.

The official location page links the Crooked Pint brand’s Facebook, Instagram, X, and TikTok accounts. On game days or for a larger party, checking the location page is especially useful: it specifies special hours, reservation conditions, and possible menu changes.
