Or at least that's what the sign says.
Do you remember that scene in Elf, where Buddy the Elf walks into the coffee shop and shouts "Congratulations, you did it! Wow! The Best Coffee In The Whole Wide World! Way to go guys!!" Well, the sign outside of the Lake Inn, on 28th Avenue and 42nd Street in South Minneapolis, says pretty much the same thing.
The only difference is, they're not exagerating. Now of course, everyone has their own opinions on who really has the best burgers in town. But Lake Inn is definitely worth checking out in your quest to find the best. Their burgers are pretty darn good.
And so is the atmosphere, for that fun, local, neighborhood feel. Kind of dark, would be smoky if Minneapolis were still a smoking town. And definitely divey. But all fun. The rest of their menu is great too. BBQ Wings, Sandwiches, etc, nothing dissapoints here.
Check out the Lake Inn next time you're hankering for a good burger and fries.
