Best Bar in America is Polish

October is Polish-American Heritage month and it is fitting that the October 2006 issue of the sophisticated and highbrow magazine “Esquire” has placed a Polish-American bar on the pinnacle of being the best tavern in America. Condolences to the Irish.




According to the article by Chris Jones, the bar isn't the sort of place that charges an outrageous cover for people to stand around in black light pushing back shooters out of test tubes. It isn't a fight club or a meat market. There is no snobbery, and there is no tonic-water drinking. There are gimlets and manhattans, bottles of Zywiec, and a first-rate pissoir.

Besides the legendary piano/crooner Lou Snider who has no problem playing any request or handing over the microphone to a patron, you can also dance to the sounds of the "world’s most dangerous polka band" voted one of the top 5 house bands by "BillBoard" magazine.


The name of the place and location: Nye’s Polonaise in Minneapolis. Link to article:
