Uptown Diner

So you walk out of a late show at the Uptown Theater on a Friday night and your stomach is angry with you for stuffing it with Sour Patch Kids and popcorn instead of dinner. You only have $10 in your pocket and you don’t feel like sitting in a dingy, smoky bar waiting for a greasy waiter to serve greasy food. One of your friends suggests Perkins, but your stomach growls in disgust. What should you do? Stagger a few blocks north to the Uptown Diner, one of the Cities’ great unsung secrets. The Uptown Diner has long been a popular place to get a coffee and a muffin or a breakfast big enough to last you until dinner. Now open Thursday through Saturday nights until 3:30 a.m., it’s the perfect place for an early morning smorgasbord. As for the poor fools still stuck in the coffeehouse chains? The diner’s giant, fluffy pancakes made from scratch and the hash browns made from fresh potatoes will make them wonder what in the world they were thinking. Uptown Diner, (612) 874-0481
