Stanley's Northeast Bar Room is a casual neighborhood bar and gastropub on University Avenue NE in Northeast Minneapolis, housed in a building more than 130 years old that has carried the Stanley's name for over 15 years. It runs 32 craft-beer taps alongside a full menu of burgers, sandwiches, nachos, and reubens, plus a year-round dog-friendly patio. For non-drinkers, Stanley's keeps a real named mocktail list on its drink menu: the NAz Rita (Seedlip Grove 42, agave, lime juice, salt rim), the Blood Orange Mock Mule (blood orange, lime, ginger beer, in a copper mug), the Blackberry Fizz, the Lavender Lemonade, and Berry Nice. The Meet Minneapolis tourism office highlights Stanley's NAz Rita and Blood Orange Mock Mule in its citywide mocktail roundup. In early 2025, community support saved the bar from a road-construction-driven closure.
