Pub 500

We came in this weekend and had some fantastic blood Mary's, an awesome and tasty burger, and one of the best reubens I have ever had. We had the Hickory burger which was topped with pulled pork and bacon. It was quite tasty and very filling. The coleslaw as a side was really good too. The reuben was delicious. The corned beef meat was so good. Service was quick and friendly.

Good food with a nice fun atmosphere. Service was friendly, but not very fast. Prices are on the higher side for the portion sizes, but the flavors were good. "Pictures are not large plates" It would have been a 5 star review if my bill matched the menu. I had two items not match, including the desert, which was almost doubled. I waited over 10 minutes to mention it to my server, but she didn't return, so I just left.

Doordash accidentally brought me the wrong persons order instead of mine. Even though it wasn’t Pub’s mistake, the manager and her staff were very helpful at ensuring I’d receive my meal. The food was incredible per usual! I order from here all the time! Very impressed with their level of customer service!

Pub 500 is one of those downtown Mankato staples that truly lives up to its reputation. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes it an easy place to gather; maybe meeting colleagues for lunch or after work, hosting out-of-town guests, or enjoying a night out with friends. What really stands out is Pub 500’s consistent commitment to building community through great service and quality food, paired with its role as a gathering place in our community. As someone who works daily to bring people together for the greater good through Greater Mankato Area United Way, I appreciate businesses like Pub 500 that help make downtown vibrant and connected, and supportive of the work we do. I’m always happy to recommend it.

If Tom Cruise & Bryan Brown were envisioning a bat full of cocktails & dreams in MN. Here is where it landed! 😊 Great eats wonderful drinks. My wife and I had a few different cocktails and every one was spectacular. I am a little on the wing connoisseur side and there wings do not disappoint. I had 3 flavors that all impressed. Norwegian, Korean and the dry rub. The dry rub most impressed as I generally like wet over dry.
