For more than 60 years, Market Bar-B-Que has been serving real pit smoked ribs. Back in the days of vaudeville, Market Bar-B-Que was famous for being the late night spot with great barbeque food. In no time at all, it became the Sardis of Minneapolis, an after hours haven for hungry show folks, sports personalities, and just about anybody who was anybody.

That was all back in the days when the Farmers' Market, their namesake, was located across the street. Vaudeville is gone, of course, and things have changed a lot over the years. But they still smoke their ribs just like they used to. They still get all of the important people stopping in to enjoy the food.

Located at 1414 Nicollet, just two blocks south of Nicollet Mall, the decor has an old German pub type feel to it. It's a fun place on the weekends and is usually pretty busy. Also, most booths have their own jukeboxes on the table featuring golden oldies classics. The place is huge on the inside, so don't worry about getting a seat somewhere. Each room is unique and special in its own way.
