Welcome to Graduate Minneapolis: The Golden Locale On Campus
Nestled in the heart of campus and just a stone’s throw from Gophers’ stadium, Graduate Minneapolis is home team central for golden get-togethers. Our lush lake house interior is dotted in forest green, woodland toile, as well as Prince-ly details of custom paisley and a little red Corvette to bring you home.
Hang out amid the cozy communal tables, dramatic fireplace and woodsy backdrop or challenge a friend to an air hockey showdown—no matter what you do, our lobby is the perfect spot for students, locals and travelers alike.
Our warm, friendly and whip smart staff can guide you in and around Minneapolis so that you feel like local even if it’s your first time in town.
