Small towns across the United States don’t have a great reputation for excellent restaurants. Most have a few casual diners or cafés that – while they serve up great food – are not very unique in their cuisine. Small-town Minnesota challenges that stereotype. Our state has great restaurants in every region. One of the tastiest? A German restaurant in northern Minnesota that will pleasantly surprise you.

Brauhaus German Restaurant & Lounge is a small-town spot in northern Minnesota. It's about 180 miles northwest of the Twin Cities. The address is 28234 MN-34, Akeley, MN 56433.
