East Side
Saint Paul's East Side is home to delicious eats and deep roots, making it an explorer's destination for culture, cuisine and history.
You'll want to come hungry to the East Side—its main drag, Payne Avenue, has been dubbed Saint Paul's Eat Street thanks to foodie spots like Brunson's Pub and Tongue in Cheek.
Also on the East Side, Wicaḣapi is home to six Native American burial mounds atop 450-million-year-old limestone and sandstone bluffs overlooking downtown Saint Paul. Play a round of golf or take a stroll by the water at Lake Phalen and celebrate the area's diverse Asian Pacific heritage at the annual Dragon Festival in July.
Neighborhood Construction
The summertime in Minnesota is notoriously known as construction season, but don't fret! Local businesses and events are still in full swing. Discover how to support and navigate the East Side during the temporary closure of Arcade Street —a prominent business strip between East 7th Street and Roselawn Avenue.
