In 1927, Louie’s family opened the Main Street Tavern. As Prohibition lifted,the name was changed to Friendly Bar & Cafe.

His inspiration played a large part in our dreams. Louie enjoyed people and great food! So here at Big Louie’s, we would like to carry on those traditions..

Yelp Review

I've been here a couple times now and the more I go the more I like it. I was impressed by their larger menu. Also when you walk into the doors, it is a sports bar heaven with TVs all over the place. The only downside I've seen is most of them are showing the same game. The first time I was here I ate the Canadian Walleye and that was a large piece of fish! I ended up taking half of it home with me. I usually judge sports bars based on their nachos. I look at their price, stacking of the chips and sides. Compared to some places I've gone they give you the most options for the nachos. Also I've found that they are usually $1 less then other places. Definitely a good deal. Abe M. St Paul .
