Minnesota may be half a country away from New England. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find New England-style food right here in the Land of 10,000 Lakes. For example, Smack Shack in Minneapolis is home to a delicious lobster roll that rivals any you’ll find in New England. And the restaurant we’d like to feature today, Patriots Tavern in Stillwater, Minnesota, serves up quality food in a New England-inspired setting. You’ll find all of your favorites – and then some – when you visit this delightful spot. Here’s what you need to know:
Patriots Tavern is a charming little spot in Stillwater, Minnesota. Thanks to the building’s architecture, it looks like something straight out of New England. Its road name is even New England Place!

For your main course, lighter fare such as soup and salad are great choices. Lobster salad or clam chowder will remind you of New England!
