Dining/Supper Off Campus
Muddled Thyme Brick Oven Pizza and Bar (75 W. Third) $$
Excellent atmosphere for drinks and dinner. Really a wine and craft drink bar disguised as a restaurant. Cuisine is high end, interesting, tasty wood-fired pizza. Has pasta and salads. Not a lot of room for large groups. Visit website for more info.
 
Heirloom Bistro (155 E. Third) $.  Excellent food and chefs. Perhaps the most adventurous flavors in town for a small restaurant. Not much seating. Will struggle with large groups.
 
Miya Japanese Bistro (62 E. Third) $  Traditional sushi and hibachi style Japanese food. Good seating for large groups.
 
Nosh Scratch Kitchen (102 Walnut St. Suite 105) $$$  Winona’s four-star cuisine.  Serves Western Mediterranean-influenced American food. Excellent and unique flavors and drinks. Mainly small tables. May need to make a reservation.
 
Blooming Grounds Coffee House (50 E. Third) $ Coffee, beer, sandwiches, and soup. Lots of seating. Nice atmosphere.
 
Café Sapori de Sicilia $ (211 Main St.) Located between campus and downtown. Mainly pasta and American Italian menu.
 
After Dinner Cocktails
The Lafayette Cocktail Bar (79 E. Third)  Best wine and cocktail bar in Winona. Great atmosphere. Enough seating and space for large groups. No food, but great for after dinner socializing.
 
The No Name Bar (252 E. Third).  Winona’s favorite arts and dive bar. Live music starting around 9pm. Quiet during early evening. Interesting characters later in the night. Has space for large groups. No food.
