If you want to sit down and enjoy your meal, get downtown early to give yourself plenty of time to pick a restaurant, eat, and walk to Target Field. If you just want something quick, you'll still want to give yourself walking time and accommodate for others that have the same idea, especially if you are within a few blocks from the ballpark.
Hennepin and 1st Avenues provide excellent night life with countless restaurants, bars, pubs and clubs. Whether you are looking for a bite to eat, a few drinks after the game or an extended Twins victory celebration, you can find the right place just blocks from Target Field. Plan ahead by seeking out dining guides before your visit or make an adventure out of it by setting out on-foot and choosing whatever places catches your eye.
Your route is dependent upon which direction you are heading. Regardless, you'll want to leave just before the game is over to avoid traffic.
Regardless of your pre or postgame plans, plan ahead and give yourself plenty of time to make sure you can safely get to Target Field.
