5.00Colin was incredibly knowledgeable about local spots, but more importantly it felt like I was hanging out with a friend. We happened to have a lot in common and he tied that into the tour, talking about soccer, nerd/anime culture in the city beyond just the food. Very easy to talk to and it happened to be during a snow storm so it was just the two of us! Appreciated his commitment to the tour. The food was very tasty and well portioned. I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch, so the fries with steak, cheese curds, and pizza slice was a generous amount for my bigger appetite. I left satisfied and not hungry until a very late dinner. The ending hot chocolate instead of the usual ice cream made a lot of sense and was delicious. Maybe if I could change something, having less fried food to make it more balanced and less heavy but I understand that fried food is a big part of the food scene here. Worth the high blood pressure, 10/10!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

5.00We’ve done a lot of food tours in various cities, and this one was probably the best. Dan was just the right combination of friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. Bring your appetite! Don’t be fooled by the fact that it’s just a 2-hour “afternoon snack” tour.
Chilly weather / stellar tour!

5.00Collin was a great host! He was very knowledgeable about the city and took us to a few different spots. There was some nice history mixed in, some great local options, and provided us with some dinner/drink recommendations for later in the evening. For us out of towners, it was a warm Minnesota welcome, and made us want to come visit again! Would highly recommend the tour.

5.00We enjoyed our tastings of the flavors of Minneapolis. Colin was both pleasant and extremely knowledgeable. He made the walk quite enjoyable. We were able to get an idea of the history of the areas as well as the dining options. Definitely worth the time. By the end of the tour, we felt like we were chatting with a friend who was able to give us ideas about where to eat. And who doesn’t like homemade ice cream?
Colin was very personable and knowledgeable about Minneapolis
