The dining scene in Woodbury is about to get livelier with the introduction of a new Northern Taphouse restaurant. The establishment, praised for its extravagant bloody marys and tailor-made burgers, is making inroads into Woodbury, adding to its existing roster of eateries in Lakeville, Plymouth, and Eau Claire.

Feasting aficionados can find the forthcoming locale at 7325 Currell Blvd., where a Perkins restaurant once dished out its homestyle meals. Northern Taphouse aims to spice things up when doors open this Monday. As reported by KARE 11, Jane Dommer, assistant general manager, and Jane Dally, kitchen manager, gave viewers a teaser of what to anticipate by showcasing some of the dishes on the KARE 11 Saturday program.

The recent expansion into Woodbury is part of Northern Taphouse's strategy to reach more patrons while offering a communal space for diners and local nonprofits alike. The restaurant encourages community involvement through its "Community Tuesday" events, inviting nonprofits seeking to fundraise to step forth by emailing the Woodbury branch. Interested parties can reach out at [email protected], per suggestions made during the KARE 11 appearance.

Moreover, an inside scoop from Bizjournals reveals that the new North Taphouse outpost will revive an old standalone Perkins building within the cozy confines of Woodbury Village. Setting up camp in the structures of familiar eateries seems to be part of a measured tactic to blend the comfort of the known with the excitement of the new, inviting locals to weave fresh dining experiences into their routine.

Woodbury's gastronomic map is poised to be enriched by this latest addition—the fourth of its kind—in a chain that is fast becoming a symbol of hearty American fare with a twist. Whether you're in it for the burgers or bloody marys, Northern Taphouse appears ready to leave its mark on the local restaurant circuit starting this very week.
