5.00I had a fantastic experience on the Minneapolis food tour! Our guide, Colin, was incredibly knowledgeable—not just about the food stops, but about the city itself and even the surrounding areas. He shared interesting history, local insights, and fun facts that really added depth to the whole experience. The food lineup was great and had a nice variety—everything from flavorful buffalo wings to interesting, loaded fries, delicious pizza, and a warm, rich hot chocolate to top it all off. Each stop brought something different, and it all felt thoughtfully chosen. The tour was well-paced, and Colin made everyone feel welcome while keeping things engaging the entire time. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it made the tour that much more enjoyable. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Minneapolis in a fun, flavorful, and informative way!

5.00I can’t recommend the Minneapolis local food tour enough! From start to finish, it was an absolute delight. Our guide Collin was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the local food scene. He shared fascinating stories about North Loop’s history while leading us to hidden gems I never would have found on my own. Every stop offered something unique and delicious — from savory bites to sweet treats — and the portions were generous enough that I left completely satisfied. I especially loved how the tour highlighted locally owned businesses. The pace was perfect, with plenty of time to enjoy the food, chat with the group, and take in the surroundings. It felt relaxed, well-organized, and thoughtfully curated. Whether you’re a visitor wanting to explore a new city or a local looking to discover new favorites, this tour is a must-do. I’d book it again in a heartbeat!

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.
