We spent an entire morning one Sunday trying to come up with a place to bring our 10 month old daughter for breakfast. Most restaurants were way to busy for us to wait with a hungry baby for a table. So we decided to try brueggers. It was wonderful, they have great highchairs, the tables are comfy yet the atmosphere is so relaxed! We had such a nice breakfast. They have a nice selection of juices and milks in a cooler which make it easy to find something suitable for the baby to drink. We had a great breakfast and no worries about causing a big disturbance!

Recently hennepin counties bars and restaurant's were forced to go smoke free. As a mother this is the greatest thing that has happened. Since my daughter was born we have had to skip out on many of our old time favorite restaurant's due to them being bars. I love the fact that I can go to champps with my daughter, they have a fun atmosphere, a great children's menu. Plus my husband and I are able to enjoy a cocktail and watch several sporting events also. We have trained our daughter to love sports as much as we do. So at 1 year old, she enjoys champps as much as we do!

Creative Kidstuff offers service and quality beyond what you would find at traditional chain toy stores. They have unique gift ideas, many award winning toys that you cannot find at the large stores. The items tend to be a little more pricey, but you are getting unique items. The staff are friendly and knowlegeable. They also offer a great gift-wrapping service which used to be free, but I believe they charge a small fee now. It is still cheaper and faster (and nicer) than wrapping them yourself. Next time you need a gift and are wanting something a little more unique, try Creative Kidstuff! You won't be disappointed.

We were really unimpressed with the Underwater Adventures attraction at the Mall of America. It was rather expensive, yet did not seem to provide much variety or much to see in comparison with other aquariums. We also were expecting a tour guide rather than just listening to a recorded tour on headsets, which made the tour less personable. We did enjoy the hands-on piece of the exhibit, but will definitely not go back for a second time.

More
The other day my wife and I place an order for flowers to send to her mother. She called back and adjusted the order so that the flowers delivered at our home instead of her mother's. The customer service on the phone was abrupt. Okay. Fine.
My wife calls again this evening asking when the flowers would be delivered (supposed to be today). Customer service was, again, abrupt and didn't offer to check the tracking to see if the flowers were even out of the shop yet. Just not taking care of us. I understand it is a big holiday season but to get repeat business you have to take care of the customers especially when it is busy. Rude customer service.
The doorbell rings. We look out the window and see a guy walking away. I open the door and the flowers are sitting outside the door. We had delivery instructions to bring to the rental office if we are not home. I follow the delivery man to the truck and ask why he rang and ran. Bachman's policy is to drop the flowers off at the door. I asked what happens if someone steals the flowers, we have a front door but the entry area is open with other townhomes having access. We'd have to call Bachman's and they would deliver flowers for free. Great, but what if we needed them that day? He didn't care. Very rude, poor service and did not follow delivery instruction.
A call back to customer service. It is, in fact, Bachman's policy to drop off the flowers if not cold outside and to not deliver to rental office because it might "slow down" the deliveries. Nothing about the fact that the delivery was made to a common area.
To top it off, my wife's mother also received a delivery from the original order before we changed it. Rang the apartment and left it in the entry way to an apartment building with maybe a hundred units...and this is after she said she would be right down.
But, to show this isn't just one experience, two years ago the sales people at Bachman's were very rude when she was shopping around for a florist to use at our wedding. They didn't get our business then and they won't get our business in the future. Customer service was rude and uncaring, delivery was rude, in store people have been rude, and the delivery policy is unreliable if you don't have a private entryway only for your own family.
Our business will be going elsewhere.

We are first time home buyers and have contacted several realtor's looking for advice and assistance. We have been treated like kings from IBR. They are so helpful and our current Realtor keeps in contact with us once a day, everyday. He is always more than willing at a moments notice to go look at a home. They are a great realty company so kind and helpful especially for a first time home buyer who is confused and nervous.

REI is the best camping/sporting goods store in the TC. I have purchased all of my equipment here. They have a great co-op program where if you become a member your purchases are tracked throughout the year and then you get 10%back as dividend dollars at the end of the year. You cannot beat this program. it is getting free money for products you buy anyway. REI has only top of the line gear and their prices are competive with anyone, however at REI you get customer service from people just like you, people who are knowledgeable in the department they work in.

Lunds market gives you a small specialty market feel, but with the products and prices found in larger chain stores. We spend alot of time experiencing local grocery stores. We truly enjoy lunds more than any of the other stores, They not only have excellent produce and meats but they have a large natural foods section and they have alot of natural health and beauty aids. I purchase alot of Berts Bees items and Lunds carries this line and it is beautiful. I am happy with the products I purchase at lunds, it is also more pleasant and relaxing than most grocery stores! This is very important!

This is an excellent place to feed your family. Mpls/St.Paul magazine named Famous Dave's #1 place to eat out with kids and I agree! We have taken our young daughter here many times in her short life. She loves eating there, she can be noisy, eat lots of food and have a great time! We find that this is a reasonable place to eat with great food, good prices, and family friendly all around. This is an excellent place to let our hair down and have a good time as a family.
