Cafe down the street from us owned by a local North Minneapolis chef beloved by the whole community! If you're lucky, you might be able to chat with Sammy himself. The sandwiches are AH-mazing with Sammy's special sauce!

This is our local northside Cub foods. Just blocks from our house. It's your basic grocery store. Some people get a weird feel from the store, but don't worry about it, you'll be fine.
