5-8 Club

The 5-8 Club originally opened in 1928 as a “speakeasy” and was widely known as the 58th Street Club, located out in the country and just adjacent to the new Wold-Chamberlain Airport. Combined with its location, the fact that the building had an underground garage made it a particularly desire-able “speak.” Cars, their trunks filled with bottles of illegal hooch packed in burlap bags, could pull right into the underground garage and the “goods” could be taken upstairs. If you want a genuine Juicy Lucy experience in the Twin Cities, there is no better place to go than the Minneapolis 5-8 Club. Speaking of famous burgers, the Juicy Lucy recently gained national attention from The Travel Channel. In 2014, it ranked the 5-8 #1 in America for tastiest place to chow down. Time Magazine also listed the Juicy Lucy as one of the most influential burgers of all time. Citypages listed eating a Juicy Lucy at the 5-8, #15 on its comprehensive Twin Cities bucket list, 50 Things to Do Before You Die. These huge honors would not be possible without our loyal Juicy Lucy fans.
