This little distillery, with its artisan cocktails has become one of my favorite places in Northfield. Laid back, friendly, bring a pack of cards and some good conversation, and hang out. Watch for the nights they pair their drinks with food trucks from the Twin Cities!

In the lower-level of the Archer House, the Tavern was a speak-easy during the Prohibition Era. Now it serves budget-friendly pub fare. There's a nice little outdoor seating area that makes a good lunch spot in the summer time.

For a taste of true Mexican Food, and a trip back 50 years to local ethnic groceries, stop in at El Triunfo. It's definitely not fancy, but the food is excellent and authentic.
