    The Downtowner should be THE go-to place for breakfast in the Twin Cities. The food and staff are excellent! And if you’re at The Downtowner for Sunday breakfast you’ll enjoy live music that’s beautiful, but not too loud that conversation isn’t drowned out.

    This [s a great place to eat and have conversation. The food is excellent, and the menu is varied. They have a full bar if you enjoy a drink before, during or after dinner. They also have an extensive wine list. If I'm in downtown St Pau; I dine at the Downtowner.
