Venues & Event Spaces near Little Canada, MN

“My wedding was incredible thanks to the good music from the DJ, the delicious food, the super beautiful decorated place and excellent attention from all the staff. without a doubt a 100% recommended place ”

“My wife and I love this park. The views of nature you can get here are stunning. The colors are just beautiful this time of year and the last time we went, we saw a large number of deer by the hidden pond near the entrance (not the big one with the island in the middle). It's just about as perfect as can be...with one exception.The modern art displays that have recently become more common in the park are strange and an eyesore. There are a few pictured in this review, and unfortunately many others that are often made of materials that stand in stark contrast to the natural beauty (a recently installed one is a concrete cask with a mowed field of artificial metal or plastic flowers around it, and others are structures made of rusty metal - the rusty "5", concrete, plastic, artificial colors, etc). A few years ago there was even a DVD player set up on a tree stump inside the nature center that looped a video of teenage girls silently throwing cheese puffs at one another in various nature scenes (I'm not joking). The empty container of cheese puffs was displayed next to the stump. These modern art displays have taken over a very nice space inside the nature center, where there was a comfy couch in front of a lovely fireplace. The couch has been removed to make room to display these modern art pieces and the fireplace is never turned on anymore. It's unfortunate - we really miss the ability to cozy up in front of that fireplace. But the park is otherwise very lovely, and we'll be coming back for years to come.”

“Our son was getting married and we are from Philadelphia. We used YELP to find DeGidio's to have the rehearsal dinner and it was a great find and excellent experience. The space was arranged and set for our arrival. Everyone was able to have a cocktail, relax and enjoy the social time. The buffet menu was served on time, hot and DELICIOUS! The bar service was A+. When you entertain, you know the food, beverage, and service are going well when the guests are having a good time and staying late! Well done and thank you DeGidio's!”

“Very help full and easy to work with. Had to cancel our order late due to snow storm. TST reduced our price and donated out 60 box lunches to local charity for us.”

“Urban Growler is a really nice brewery tucked away in a neighborhood in St. Paul. We were looking for a fish fry and we found a good one. A “Wisconsin Style” fish fry every Friday night. The beer was good, I had their Midwest IPA and my wife a cream ale. And there was plenty of fish including a side of cole slaw, tator tots, fries or chips. The owner came over and introduced herself and asked how everything was and offered me another piece of fish which was so nice. I’ll be back.”

“CHS Field is a phenomenal ballpark that really sets a high standard for minor league baseball fields and city owned facilities. Although an intimate stadium with regard to seat numbers, this stadium is very clean, family friendly, with great fan engagement, and no bad views of the field. This stadium has an amazing team store, food selections, and a baseball museum located within the stadium as well. I would highly recommend it for anyone to try and catch a St. Paul Saints game here for a classic and enjoyable day at the ballpark.”

“413 on Wacouta is such an amazing venue and it was perfect for our wedding! The building has so much character we really didn’t need to do a ton of extra decorating and just let the spaces shine. It has a very Beauty and the Beast, speakeasy vibe which made for a beautiful and romantic setting. We had a little over 100 people which I felt fit the space well. Victoria is so much fun and was really wonderful to work with also! She sent photos and videos she had taken throughout the day and was such an asset in ensuring our day was special and ran smoothly. 10/10 I highly recommend if you are looking for an intimate, romantic downtown setting with a ton of charm!”

“I highly recommend magnolia blossom cruises for your wedding venue! We got married on 8/26, and it was an absolute dream! Everyone that attended our party wished it never ended! They accommodated us more than we could have ever asked for! We forgot our boquets in the car, and the staff made me a make shift one on the fly so I would have one! They have music throughout the boat and accommodations to make sure your phone is hooked up. The staff made sure everything was taken care of, and I didn't need to worry about a thing!! The food was delicious - the sandwiches were an absolute hit at the after party, and so many compliments! I wish I could get married again just to experience the boat again. Also, captain Dan was very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed. He communication so well!!”

“This was an awesome experience! The atmosphere was a great and the Instructor Olaf knew his stuff and was very helpful and all. If ever come back to Minnesota definitely will go here again.”

“We recently hosted an event at the P&Y club and I couldn't recommend it more. The place is beautiful and the patio especially is right on the Mississippi river with gorgeous sunset views. The staff was extremely helpful, great at offering options and suggestions and flexible to accomodate our scheduling requests. I worked with Amy Muller and Laura and highly highly recommend both of them. Our food was prepared by Chef Kevin and the food was EXCELLENT! The compliments and feedback I consistently got from all the guests was how flavorful it was. (This says a lot as all my friends are amazing cooks themselves :)) Big shout out to Amanda, Katie and Michael for taking care of our guests during the event. Thank you all!”

“Baby Face, Baby Face, Baby Face. I scrolled through countless reviews trying to find the name of our tour guide, but I think it actually suits this review that I never could find it. His name might as well be Baby Face. The tunnels themselves were very cool, but the way Baby Face told the history and engaged the crowd made the entire thing for us. Half comedian, half archivist, half movie geek, half gangster historian, his enthusiasm for every part of those caves just floored us. The tour really made St. Paul seem like the wildest place on earth. I guess underground, anything goes!”

“Love restaurant week! The beef bourguinon with mashed potatoes and demi-glace was delicious and so tender it melted in my mouth. Our server Alex was a delight. Located on the other side of town from me but well worth the extra time to get there. I'll definitely go back to try some other dishes.”

“From the start..the staff was excellent. Door man welcomed us, helped with bags, Brian at front desk helped to accommodate us with our early arrival, Catherine served us a wonderful breakfast. First rate everytime!”

“7 Vines is a wonderful vineyard with a great selection of Minnesota wines. Service is great and they offer a nice selection of food and beverages. Their wine tastings and tours are enjoyable and informative.Highly recommend visiting, but be sure to make a reservation unless you want to wait or sit at the bar.”

“We had our wedding here back in August and seriously hands down the best event coordination to work with ever! They were all super responsive to questions when they came up. From Matthew & Nicole to the event security at night, everything went amazing! (Just as they promised) I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend using this event center for any big events you are needing!”

“We had our dream wedding here.St. Paul College Club made for the most STUNNING venue and the team there was amazing. If you’re looking for a venue in the St. Paul area with historic charm, this is it.Team - Tracy and her team were exceptional throughout the whole process answering my every question quickly. They made me feel like my wedding was the only event on their books, which for a bride, was reassuring. We had rented the space starting at 9 a.m. and without even being asked the team started helping set up with flowers, table cards and more. During the reception, they came to check on us multiple times throughout the night to make sure we were okay and had everything we needed – drinks, food, and so much more. They didn’t miss a beat. Before coming to St. Paul College Club, Tracy worked with other venues. She took all the things that are annoyances, problems, and difficult in planning a wedding and made sure that events/weddings were not ran like that here.Food & Drinks – 12/10 – The chef and his team are top-notch. Everyone was served large portions, and the food everyone raved about. Two months later someone was talking to me about the chicken they ate that night, it’s THAT good. They also were accommodating to any allergies and more. We served apps at happy hour which were such a hit too. We loved being able to bring all our own alcohol and worked with their recommended bartending company and everything was PERFECT.Venue – 10/10, the locations, vibes, all of it stunned both in town and out of town guests. Perfect distance to DT St. Paul so did not need to offer transportation, plenty of things to do in the area for out of town guests, and more. Having the entire mansion was also really awesome as we found different groups of guests hanging out in separate areas. The venue is so timeless and beautiful itself that minimal décor was needed which was nice.Transparency – The team is 100 percent transparent. There were no hidden costs/fees or anything which when planning such a big event does put a curve in things, if not disclosed. They also go above and beyond to let you know what they think might be needed given on the wedding size, and more. For example, I wanted two bars and we opted for passed champagne, which was an excellent touch and at a fraction of the cost.”

“How do you review something so timeless. As a little one I came here frequently with my family and I would get so excited I would make myself sick! (Or so they say, I probably have issues with crowds or something). Anyway, I started volunteering in the vet med area in 2023 and I am so glad to be back - I actually kind of preferred walking around by myself! I am glad they've been getting more vegan options. I was there in 2019 to see Brandi Carlile and that was my first time Grand Standing it. Always so much to do and so little time!”

“Camp is an overall great bar! From their awesome and attentive servers (Britt, Josh, Nate, Frank, Tim and Brian) to their awesome selection of tap beer and mixed cocktails, darts, pool, trivia and live singing nights to their comedy cabaret next door, they have a little bit of everything (plus Heggies pizza)! The bar is very, VERY LGBTQIA+ friendly, the vibe is chill and it's a great place to hang.”

“Nice parking lot.I just pulled over to text. They were closed.But seems nice.No idea what this place does.I'll have to look them up however. Because their parking lot is just great.”

“What a perfect place for a wedding venue! Everything was fantastic, but I want to point out one specific person. Elizabeth is part of the wait staff and she “wowed” me with her pleasant & calm personality and professionalism. She was above all and second to none. She definitely made an impression on my husband and I which we will not ever forget. While they were shorthanded, everything seem to go without a hitch. I am delighted that my friend chose to have her wedding here. I will definitely recommend it to any friends who are looking to have an event. Thank you very much for the warm and welcoming gestures from Elizabeth and the rest of the staff.”

“We wanted a great small place to have a nice meal. It turned out It was a Bingo night and they were hopping! But fun to watch and listen to. I had the bison burger with just fried onions. It was delicious and the tator tots were great! I recommend this place!”

“Wonderful place to stay and such a unique experience for any visitor/resident of the area! Thank you so much to the Covington Inn for such a memorable experience.”

“Chill place, great food, cheap PBR. I go for chess on Tuesday evenings. Sometimes they host swing dance lessons while we are there.Parking: Parking lot is shared with a city park and softball/baseball field, so during games the parking may be scarce.Wheelchair accessibility: No power doors but there is curb access. Plenty of friendly helpful folks around!”

“Great drinks! The prime rib was fantastic! Husband had club, which is his go to. Service was awesome! Bartender has the best personality and is always a pleasure.”

“Good food, great service. Excellent bartenders and very professional.Kid-friendliness: Nope. Very busy place a little on the upscale side. I went for happy hour, so nope at that time.”

“Two weeks away from our wedding, and plans did not go as planned. We ended up doing last minute venue search and found this to be available. The manager was very professional and offered us assistance when needed. It was a great place to have our wedding reception. Very reasonable pricing. I highly recommend if you are looking for a venue for your special events.”

“A very nice student center with fun activities like bowling in the lower level along with shops and technology help for students. We were there for a performance in the auditorium of the Law School's TORT (Theatre Of the Relatively Talentless) group, which do a once a year law school themed parody performance which was excellent.”

“The Original Coney Island is a rare and delicious place to visit if building hours allow. Stepping into the building is like stepping back in time, with the art deco bar, original appliances and the best Coney dogs in town. The Coney dogs are served to the public just a few times a year, but when they are here it would be a shame to miss out on this historic treat! They are absolutely delicious! I try to get myself one every year!”

“I have tried 4 different items from the menu. And pretzel was old, chicken had zero flavor, couple items were decent. Atmosphere is nice. Even like the bingo gang downstairs. Add some flavor to the chicken strips. Ty.”
