This week, Rachel and John talk about what to eat in Stillwater, Minn., during The Stillwater Music Festival (through Aug. 27).
Favorite Standbys
Smalley's Caribbean Barbeque is a fun choice for a dinner destination. Rachel personally recommends the pulled chicken sandwich, which comes complete with a skull-and-crossbones branded bun!
If you're a wine lover, Northern Vineyards Winery is a definitely worth a visit.
Domacin Restaurant & Winebar is another excellent choice for wine enthusiasts, due to its extensive wine list. Interested in an intimate dining experience? Call in advance to book the captain's wine room for a cozy private party.
New places
The Green Room is located on Main Street in a historic building and serves international fare.
QuickFire features Neapolitan-style pizzas that range from traditional to funky, with toppings like Thai chicken and macaroni and cheese.
Lift Bridge Brewery offers brewery tours and a tap room, so head on over to sample some local beer!
Cooks of Crocus Hill has recently opened a Stillwater location, so if you are interested in learning to cook like a pro, this is a great place to take a cooking class.
