Liz and Ian are a force to be reckoned with. And last night Sadie and don ran this place so smooth. I’d never been here before and I felt so welcomed Paula and Kim and max have me editing this post. This place is golden. Max is a hoot and this guy deserves a large cash tip for how much he cares

The Knight Cap is one of the best dive bars in Minneapolis, specifically NE Mpls. Always excellent service from awesome, friendly, down to earth staff. A fun atmosphere with ample seating, a great spot to play darts. Heggies pizzas and other deep fried bar finger foods available. They also have a great, spacious private patio.
