The 501 Club is a massively cool new addition to the downtown Minneapolis bar landscape. In fact, it's hard to imagine a business that could fit better into the South Washington bar district's hip, but not exclusive, climate. The owners have taken over the not surprisingly failed Matty-B's and have turned it into something truly remarkable. There's great food, great drinks, local art, and live music that never has a cover.

Patron's probably won't be surprised that the 501 is owned by the same people who brought Minneapolis the highly successful 331 Club. While the names of these businesses suggest a lack of imagination, the atmosphere's created suggest anything but. If you are going to the Metrodome any time soon (walking distance), or are just looking to head downtown, the 501 is not to be missed. With how well everything at this place works, you just might become a regular.

Best new venue in mpls. Never a cover, great menu, good drink specials, and awesome staff! Would have given 5 stars but I have yet to find anything in mpls that I would rate a 5 out of 5.

I went on a Tuesday night and it was dead. "Happy Hour" consists of $1 off drinks (not so "happy"). Went with a couple of my single girlfriends. The young female bartender was indifferent- bordering on rude. We moved to a table and we had to fetch our server who was also very indifferent. Will NOT go back. I rate bars on ambiance, prices and service. This lacked service and prices. The look is local bar meets fancy DT lighting.

Been there once....went back for brunch.....going back again. Awesome. I love the two-level effect. Atmosphere, price, selection, non-Metrodome Event-times may be better. I love this place.
