North America United States Bloomington, Minnesota Dining Snuffy's Malt Shop

Overview

Snuffy's Malt Shop

The guide was updated: 2024-02-16

In 1983, the first Snuffy's Malt Shop opened for business in Saint Paul on Cleveland Avenue. Mike Mueller founded this adventure with the concept of providing a quality meal at a fair price. Mr. Mueller was looking to relive part of his youth in creating a 1950's drive in themed restaurant. For the first couple of years the family owned and operated restaurant continued to refine and improve on the classic 1950's diner appeal. Soon after garnering local attention and national recognition, Snuffy's was able to expand into 4 different Twin Cities neighborhoods. Snuffy's continues to be a famous Minnesota institution because we provide your family with quality hamburgers, fries, malts and so much more for an affordable price.
