Eat Street (Nicollet Ave) one block west and arguably one of the best dining streets in the entire Midwest. A few standouts right on the strip: Pimento Jamaican Kitchen (Food Network's Food Court Wars winner, with legendary jerk chicken, curried goat, plantains, and a rum bar open until 2am on weekends), The Copper Hen (a beloved farm-to-table kitchen and bakery known for its award-winning brunch, from-scratch French-American comfort food, and warm farmhouse atmosphere), and dozens more independently owned restaurants serving Vietnamese pho and banh mi, East African cuisine, Mexican street food, and more. You could eat dinner on Eat Street every night for a month without repeating yourself

Over 50,000 titles in vinyl, CDs, books, incense, clothing, gifts, and more. Prince was a longtime customer and made purchases there just five days before his death in 2016. There is no better music store in the state
