Located in the heart of downtown, just across from Orchestra Hall, BRIT’S is a London-like pub that offers multiple rooms, high ceilings, and THREE of the coolest outdoor patios in the cities! It is styled as an English Pub; with old polished woodwork, great European and domestic beer selections and an extensive Happy Hour choice. The crowd is an eclectic mix from English soccer fan to hipster to young professional to older upper-middle class!

Be it winter or summer BRIT’S is great for all seasons!

Summer: Downtown Rooftop lawn bowling (Public Bowling is at the weekends – $5 per person, per hour), two outdoor bars, three huge patios!

Winter: 4 Fireplaces, 3 bar areas, and great event spaces perfect for any relaxed occasion.



THRIFTY TIPS- most meters usually end by 10pm so show up later. You can get earlier meters or find off street parking a few blocks away around 13th & Nicollet. The meters on 11th end at 6pm. Check www.britspub.com for updates on movie seasons, pub quizzes, beer dinners and other fun events

I went there to meet some friends for dinner. I'd say that the place is fun. I wouldn't go there on a Friday or Saturday night though. It does get extremely crowded which probably accounts for some of the low ratings. I never made it to the lawn or game room because it was so darn crowded. The atmosphere is great though and the food is okay. Pretty fattening. LOL!

spent last week in there almost every night and it is best atmosphere in a bar ive been to in America. Patio is great in the summer nights. check this place out if you are going to minneapolis

Love the atmosphere, beer selection, and food. The patio is lovely in the summer. Crowd is very much of the "young professional" persuasion, but if you don't fit that criteria you won't feel out of place. Only complaint is it can get pricey very quickly.

Pretty cool place, especially during the summer. Nice place to hang out with friends and have a pint, but the prices can get a little steep.

I love Brits. Always plenty of good "viewing" in the warmer months and the new veranda is also nice. I have a good time nearly every time I walk into this place.
