Minnesota is full of old-school restaurants! In every region of the state, you’ll find eateries that have been serving up delicious food for years and years. In some places, you’ll even find restaurants that are older than the state itself, like the Hubbell House in Mantorville. The restaurant we want to share today isn’t quite that old.
