St. Anthony Main

A neighborhood in Minneapolis

St. Anthony Main is one of Minneapolis's oldest areas, running along the Mississippi River on a cobblestone stretch of SE Main Street. Its live-music scene is anchored entirely by the Aster Cafe, a candle-lit restaurant-bar with an outdoor European courtyard that looks out over the river and the downtown skyline. The Aster presents live music most nights of the year, ranging from national acoustic acts to the best local artists. More precisely, the Aster hosts live music most Wednesday through Saturday nights at 8 p.m., along with weekend music brunches. Reservations are taken for indoor dining and live music, making it a sit-down listening room as much as a bar. Recent bookings listed by Meet Minneapolis include jazz ensembles, Americana acts, and singer-songwriters, all at a $15 cover, with doors at 7 p.m. and shows running from 8 to 10 p.m. The neighborhood has no other dedicated music venues; the Aster carries the full weight of the area's live-music identity.
