Bunny's Bar & Grill   

Despite moving further down the street to make room for Excelsior Avenue development, this long-time favorite still has a neighborhood hangout feel to it. Just like the former location, the bigger, spiffier Bunny's has "sports bar" written all over it. St. Louis Park regulars and a host of softball teams have gathered here for years to enjoy the camaraderie, good food and lively nightlife. Breakfast is popular, and later in the day, folks flock in for hot turkey sandwiches, burgers and other hearty eats. Beyond the weekday happy hour (which includes bar food), drink specials are common. This is more a place to chill out, play games and toast your buddy's score (the RBI kind) than to prance around in your glam and bling. Multiple TVs and a good sound system keep the tempo lively in the evening, and the seasonal outdoor patio is quickly becoming a Metro-area favorite to hang one's ball cap.
