Venues & Event Spaces near Anoka, MN

“This place is something special. Small fair but man is it jam packed with vendors, shops, rides and great food and music. The music selection was excellent along with the local shops that came in and sold amazing work. Then on top of that they usually have a dirt bike atv trick show or demolition derby with fireworks. They also have free misters going at all times around the park if you get a little too hot on those summer day visits. Great place for the family, kids or even Date night!”

“For date night Friday December 8, 2023, we decided to give the all you can eat crab legs a try. At $70 a piece, it’s definitely not something we can do very often, but we wanted to see how it was so we could bring family to eat sometime in the future. The service was great from Jake. When he brought the crab legs, they were piping hot, three clusters brought out all at one time. I’m a small woman and I like to take my time eating, because I get full fast. I didn’t have time to eat my salad or potatoes and felt like I was trying to eat so fast because after 1 1/2 clusters, the crab was no longer hot. I had asked Jake if I could take my leftover crab home, and he said sorry, no. I did try really hard to eat all the crab but I was so uncomfortable and nearly nauseous from trying to eat so fast…it wasn’t even an enjoyable meal. If they won’t let you take the initial ones home that you can’t eat, do they just get thrown out? I can see you not being able to if it’s the fourth cluster.”

“The coaches are awesome and there are tons of options for various age groups and levels. We have our 4 kids in their programs and it's been wonderful to see how they have improved and gained strength, coordination and confidence!”

“Have been to many microbreweries over the years and have never seen one as unique as this one. Being a sci-fi fantasy fan myself, I really appreciated the decor with nods to Tolkien and Monty Python's Holy Grail. Custom artwork on t-shirts and wall hangings is very well done! There's darts, frisbee, painting groups, live music, and many other interesting things to see and do here. Really like all the little cubbyholes too. Sampled a flight and enjoyed the full flavor and creaminess of the Baltic Orc Porter so much, I HAD to pickup some for home! Excellent, knowledgeable staff and the owner walking around chatting with customers was nice. Three dollar discounts for growlers on Wednesdays too. Loved the original names given to the brews as well. Most likely will become regulars and will definitely be back.”

“What an awesome experience! Our child celebrated their birthday playing Laser Tag with 9 of their friends at WhirlyBall Maple Grove. Wes got us situated in our party room, and Rob helped us with our pizza and drink orders. Both were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Another crew member explained the rules and helped to coordinate the games in the Laser Tag arena, which was very spacious, clean, and had tons of fun dimensions added to it (walls, corners, windows, etc). The party room was clean and well-maintained, overlooking the WhirlyBall court, which was really fun to watch. There were NO hidden fees – the coordinators were communicative and transparent about how much it cost, what it included, and what to expect, which I very much appreciated. The entire staff were exceptionally professional, pleasant, attentive, and helpful in every way possible. This was a super great way to celebrate a teen’s special day!”

“A lovely golf course view! The food was delicious. I was there for the memorial of an old friend and the food and service was perfect for the occasion The wine selections were limited but good. The experience made a difficult day better.”

“We wanted Chinese food on Thanksgiving,well they were closed. So we thought let's go to the BC. Nick was working and they had the BEST turkey dinner we have ever had at a bar/restaurant. So much food and so good. I suggest, if they have it again next year, GO you will not be disappointed. And they had it for to go orders also. And yes you got a piece of pumpkin pie.GREAT JOB BC LEGION ON YOUR TURKEY DINNER.”

“Meat raffle on Fridays and Saturdays! Stay on your toes because they are exciting and go by quick!This VFW is always busy so get there early if you're going with a group.Food is about what you'd expect from a busy bar. Table service always seems understaffed, but they do a good job keeping up. My favorite is the pub Mac and cheese. It's just one of those perfect comfort meals. The flat breads are pretty good too. Big enough to share.”

“The food is very good but some items are off schedule with the environment. It is a pool hall. I would simplify the menu to burgers wings pizza and sides..... and daily ”

“Went for a White Party and had to pay double to get in. I can see 1 1/2 times addmittance, but 2x....probably finda new place to party Wayne!!! Found out owner had nothing to do with what they were charging at the door so I changed it from 3 to 5 stars. They haven't been open since covid started. I miss this place! Hope they'll open soon!!! Update they're back,! Open until 2am!!!(5/7/2021)”

“Been coming here pretty consistently for awhile. I love the environment, I’ve met some really cool people coming here! Really fun during the week especially when there’s leagues going on or when they’re practicing! Thursday is the day to go if you want to be in that type of setting! Everyone I’ve talked to on the staff team is very professional, friendly and welcoming! They have great service and keep the place nice and clean. I have no complaints whatsoever.”

“Always used to come here for Birthday parties when I was young, now I come for adult night on Thursdays. This place is a time capsule in the best way. Love it here, it’s always a good time!”

“2 room suite:Issues/poor observations:-Chosen for having EV chargers - They weren't turned on and the front desk did not know how to turn them on. They finally turned them on at 7am which was a bit late for an overnight charge.-Some rooms face the interstate and would be a bit louder noise levels (our room was not this way)-AC is extremely loud and could not sleep with it on. Even turned off there was an air sound like a white noise machine on medium, at least I could sleep, but again, not quiet.-Ceilings are medium height yet the showers are installed at the lower point in the wall so anyone over 5'5" is ducking to get under the water.Quality items:Clean rooms/grounds - well kept courtyardGreat breakfast selection and quality. (See pictures for details)They are renovating but none of the renovations caused any inconveniences or annoyances.I did not use the pool or fitness center.The location is convenient.Overall nowhere near the level of what they charge for rooms at this time.Rooms: Clean, watch out for loud AC.Noteworthy details: Has EV charging if they know how to turn it on.”

“Tried this place for 1t time. Great outside dining. Prompt friendly service. Good eats. Only negative was a drunk guy named Hunter who constantly talked and used the F word in every sentence, 5’6”, 130 lbs, knows everything about everything, has all the answers and big plans for the future, has a pickup truck and a boat, and then nothing else. But he was Mr Cool.”

“I stayed here for a work training - Region III. It is beautiful! The conference area is great - it has a lot of space and separate areas.Rooms: The room I had had windows right next to the interstate. It was LOUD - I did not hardly sleep at all! If I had a room on the other side of the building, any other of the 3 sides, I'm certain I would have slept great. The rooms are big.Food & drinks: The food is really good at the restaurant! Lots of options. Super friendly staff.”

“Wonderful employees. Checking in went smooth and breakfast crew were super kind and helpful. Was very busy upon check in but line moved fast. Lots of food options and plenty places to shop in area. Only downside is pool has special hours which we didn't know upon reserving room. Had to switch days last minute thankfully before they got booked up. Pool is only open on weekends and not Sundays after 12p. Much higher price while charging card than previously said on website. Was an additional $100 than previously shown on their website when they swiped my card. Definitely check the fine print and expect to pay over $300. Does include breakfast though and rooms were spotless.”
