Ask anybody who lives in or has visited Brooklyn Park, MN, and they’ll tell you it’s one of Minnesota’s best-hidden gems. This town is full of amazing attractions and warm, inviting locals. Keep reading to learn more about what makes it so great!
Outdoor Adventures
Take in the great outdoors with fantastic places like Coon Rapids Dam Regional Park. Set over 160 acres, this picturesque area provides a multitude of trails for kayaking, running, walking, and bike trails as well.
When winter comes around, it converts into a winter-wonderland, and those avid runners and bikers are replaced with cross-country skiers. Over the river is an observation deck where spectators can peer into the thundering dam as the sunsets into the horizon.
Fantastic Breweries
While there are a few breweries in Brooklyn Park, none are as famous as the city’s pioneer brewery, Blue Wolf Brewing. It’s known for many things apart from the great beer it produces.
Plenty of sitting room, tasty food, and welcoming staff make this spot a favorite among Brooklyn Park locals. Remember that if you’re visiting any brewery or establishment that serves alcohol, you must be of legal drinking age to consume alcohol, and you should not drink and drive under any circumstances.
Heart Warming Festivals
Families of Brooklyn Park can enjoy two great festivals per year starting with the Twin Cities Spring Babies Festival. This event features petting zoos with various baby farm animals.
Later in the year the Twin Cities Harvest Festival and Maze takes place, allowing participants to run through a giant corn maze! Both of these festivals provide other attractions such as live music and entertainment, and there are plenty of cookouts to satisfy your appetite after a day of maze running.
Mouth-Watering Food
The food and restaurant scene in Brooklyn Park are booming with a large selection of international and local cuisine. Stop into Lemon Grass Thai to enjoy fresh sushi and other amazing creations that have made this one of the most popular restaurants in all of Brooklyn Park.
In the mood for a fusion? Check out Mi-Sant Banh Mi. This restaurant combines the art of French cuisine with Vietnamese flavors. There is nothing on the menu that your taste buds won’t thank you for ordering.
Room for the Classics
Places like Wagner’s Drive-In theatre deliver a dose of nostalgia with an old-fashioned drive-in/diner. The burgers and coleslaw are homemade. The fries are fresh cut and the milkshakes are thick and delicious.
Everything else on that menu will remind you of the golden era and during the summer months, classic car owners fill the parking lot every Monday and put their beautiful automobiles on display.
