Great Places to Meet. Great Places to Eat.
The only thing better than reading about food is eating it, and Grand Forks has some of the best restaurants and bars around. Whether you’re a connoisseur of culinary experiences, in the mood for delicious comfort food, or want to watch the game over a hot slice of pizza, – Grand Forks has you covered. Enjoy food from a variety of cultures in casual or upscale atmospheres. Or a food truck if that’s your thing!
Although you might not expect it, the Grand Forks area is a melting pot of cultures including Mexican, Asian, Somalian, and of course Norwegian, German, and Polish ancestry among others which create an interesting mix of delightful flavors. From the easy fare of a brew pub to the fresh taste of sushi to the warm spices of curry infused dishes, the Grand Forks area can satisfy almost every palate.
Especially cool are the annual feeds and dinners hosted by communities, churches and organizations that run the gamut: corn, lefse, french fries, lutefisk, walleye, and meatballs are among the specialties. Come for the food, but stay for the friendship! Whatever your favorite tastes are, you’re sure to find it at the restaurants and bars in Grand Forks.

Grand Forks Classics
It’s big enough to have good times with sports and shows. And it is small enough so you can get around without stress. You can get acquainted with lots of people. Or if you prefer the quiet life, you also can find that here.
I love that there always seems to be something going on with sporting events, downtown events, or concerts. It’s small enough that you’re not in a city with traffic, but big enough that there is always something to do.
