BUFFALO, N.Y. and ST. PAUL, Minn. (March 22, 2017) - Delaware North-Hell's Kitchen Partners, the Minnesota Twins and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport today formally celebrated the opening of Twins Grill, a new sports bar and restaurant themed after the Major League Baseball team. The restaurant, which officially opened in mid-February, is located in Concourse C of Terminal 1 and is open daily from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
"The Twins are a beloved institution in the Twin Cities and a key part of the identity of the region," said Kevin Kelly, president of Delaware North's travel division. "We want everyone passing through the airport to get a little taste of the ballpark with a great meal and experience what it's like to be a Twins fan by soaking in an atmosphere that showcases the team's past and present."
"The Twins Grill is a natural fit for airport customers," said Dennis Probst, chief operations officer for the Metropolitan Airports Commission. "Its extensive food and bar offerings have proven popular with families and business travelers alike, especially over the past several very busy weeks at MSP."
Twins Grill, at 6,100 square feet, can seat up to 220 guests amidst a ballpark atmosphere with an interior designed after the Twins' home at Target Field, where Delaware North's Sportservice division operates food, beverage and retail operations for the team. The restaurant's décor features graphics celebrating Twins' history, pieces of team memorabilia and a unique wall treatment created with 3,000 baseball bats.
"The Twins are proud to be part of the airport's dynamic lineup of offerings," Twins President & CEO Dave St. Peter said. "While the Twins Grill showcases the history of our franchise as well as the award-winning Target Field experience, we are equally excited to highlight sports of all kinds for travelers passing through MSP."
The restaurant's menu was designed with assistance from the chef team at Target Field and will include classic ballpark fare such as nachos, cheese curds, onion rings and chicken quesadillas. A full bar will feature a rotating tap of 16 beers, including many local brews, and a grab-and-go kiosk will also be available for travelers in a time crunch. Featured local beers include Bent Paddle Brewing Co., Fulton Brewery, Grain Belt, Hamm's Brewery, Lift Bridge Brewery, Summit Brewing Co. and Surly Brewing Co.
