My favorite places to eat
in and around Duluth
For its size, the Duluth area has a respectable number of local restaurants. In recent years, it has also become a hot-spot on the craft beer and cider scene.
Below are a selection of some of my favorites!
Duluth Grill
Local standard fare restaurant. They locally source a lot of their food. Try the fish tacos!
OMC Smokehouse

Northern Waters Smokehaus
Local smoked meat and sandwich shop. Try the Bison Bits.
Anchor Bar & Grill
Local “dive” bar. Try the Cashew Burger.
Va Bene Caffe
