Aster Cafe sits along the Mississippi River in St. Anthony Main, on a cobblestone stretch overlooking the downtown Minneapolis skyline. The space is split between an outdoor European-style courtyard and a candlelit indoor dining room, with a kitchen that skips deep fryers in favor of dishes like flatbread and small plates, alongside custom cocktails, curated wines, and craft beers.
Live music runs most nights of the year, ranging from national acoustic acts to local showcases, making the room as much a listening space as a dining one. The riverside patio, shaded by trees, draws its own following for the setting alone.
Beyond regular service, Aster also operates as a private event and wedding venue, using the same historic building and riverside courtyard for ceremonies, receptions, and corporate gatherings.
