The 11 Most Instagrammable Places in Minneapolis

8. ‘Gram everything but the kitchen sink* at a classy culinary classroom

What do you get when you combine a wellness center venue with a culinary class room? Answer: a medley of highly photogenic nooks and a specialized chef’s kitchen, all situated in a vast space punctuated with natural elements. There’s a granite island, copper lighting fixtures, tactful Scandinavian aesthetic cabinets, and sunlight galore. Plus, there’s no shortage of ficus plants, adding yet another texture to the overall visual appeal of this welcoming space.

*Actually, you can take photos of the kitchen sink, too. It’s quite elegant, and just another element making this one of Minneapolis’ most Instagrammable places.

9. Beautify your home with a picture of the Bob Dylan mural

Prince wasn’t the only super famous musician to come out of Minneapolis – Minnesotan Bob Dylan lived there for a while as a kid. Brazilian artist Eduardo Kobra’s 2015 mural commemorating him is by far one of theb. It’s easy to get to, being just off the light rail downtown. And it’s hard to miss, considering that it’s five stories tall and a psychedelic circus of colors. Check it out on the corner of Hennepin Avenue and Fifth Street South.

10. Grab a drink at a cool, grungy social venue

If you’re going for a more industrial vibe, don’t miss the discotheque environment at this visually stimulating venue. Its spacious 7,500 square feet offer quite the photographic variety, somehow successfully fusing plush booth seating with exposed pipes and colorful neon and florescent lights overhead. It’s reminiscent of a 1990s multilevel disco roller skating rink, but with EDM music instead of Nirvana and velvet ropes to section off the VIPs. This venue is nothing if not stimulating, and one can only imagine the crazy late-night Instagram pictures that will be the envy of your friends.

11. Enjoy a good time at a contemporary creative space

Greenery abounds at this contemporary uptown venue. It has so much light pouring in that you can forget you’re in a winter wonderland and transport yourself to an unnamed island country, perhaps a former British colony. In addition to the main space, there’s an indoor/outdoor atrium with plentiful seating, offering another visual perspective, still more light, and, you guessed it, more foliage. The painting of Dolly Parton, though, really adds a special something for your artistically inclined guests to snap. This has to be one of the most Instagrammable spots in all of Minneapolis, albeit undiscovered.
