Neighborhood gems in Elliot Park
Locals can start their mornings at Segue Coffee, a cozy independent coffee that runs a non-profit community pantry. The neighborhood is also home to local coffee franchise Dunn Brothers Coffee. When hunger strikes, one neighborhood gem stands out as a favorite. The red and white old-school diner Band Box has been a beloved greasy spoon since its opening in 1939. So beloved, in fact, that when the diner had to close during the pandemic in 2020, neighbors and patrons raised over $26,000 to reopen the doors in 2023. It's no wonder the spot is so popular. Shoestring fries and burgers, buttermilk pancakes drenched in syrup, English muffins dripping in butter—the food at Band Box Diner is no joke. When residents need groceries, they head to Elliot Park Grocery or Trader Joe's just outside the neighborhood. Between Mill City Museum and the Guthrie sits the Mill City Farmers Market, home to over 40 farmers, artisan food vendors and artists.
Segue Coffee is a local favorite for a hot cup of coffee.

Great diverse neighborhood near downtown and several major highways. Nice parks. Still fairly affordable for downtown. Has a few walking-distance restaurants, but it would be nice to have more.
