Meteor

Meteor began serving hot dogs during the pandemic, and the roller became a lasting part of this north Minneapolis cocktail bar. The Minnesota Star Tribune describes a faithful Chicago Dog with the full vegetable, relish, pepper, and celery-salt treatment, plus a breakfast version layered with potato straws, maple syrup, and facon. A vegan frank is available as well.

Meteor makes precisely balanced drinks feel at home in a century-old north Minneapolis bar. Mpls.St.Paul Magazine notes its national recognition, but the room remains loose, welcoming, and open late rather than ceremonial. The menu's inventive cocktails share space with hot dogs, preserving the exact place identity reused in the Twin Cities hot-dog list.
