Welcome to the Aster Cafe.
The Aster Cafe is located under the trees on the prettiest street in Minneapolis. Overlooking the mighty Mississippi river and the skyline of the city, the Aster is a candle-lit restaurant-bar with a sweet European patio. Live music, great brunches, craft beers and cocktails, and a thoughtful wine list add up to City Pages calling us the “best place to go on a first date”. Our menu is fresh (no deep fryers!) and inventive. We also have lovely spaces for events and weddings, which you can check out by contacting our Event Goddess. So get down here!
Aster Cafe takes reservations for indoor music only. We host live music on the weekends including Sunday brunch. Reservations for those days are specific to the event.
We do not take reservations for any outdoor patio seating or indoor general seating.
For indoors only reservations of large groups of 6 or more guests, please call the restaurant or email info@astercafe.com and we will try to accommodate you.
For groups larger than 30, please make a private event request.
