Forepaugh's Restaurant occupies a meticulously restored Victorian mansion constructed in 1870 by Joseph Forepaugh, a prominent Saint Paul dry goods merchant whose business reached half a million dollars in annual sales by 1864. Set in St. Paul's historic Irvine Park neighborhood, the property passed through several owners over the decades before opening as a restaurant in 1976. Following an extensive restoration that began in 2022, the venue reopened in 2024 with a renewed emphasis on contemporary American fine dining. The mansion's original architectural details — hand-carved woodwork, crystal chandeliers, and period fireplaces — remain intact throughout its dining rooms. For private events, Forepaugh's offers the intimate Limestone Wine Cellar, a third-floor space with panoramic views of downtown Saint Paul, and a terrace suited for outdoor gatherings. A dedicated events team works with clients to tailor weddings, corporate events, milestone celebrations, and private dinners within this historic Saint Paul landmark.

Sweeney's Saloon occupies a building in Saint Paul's Cathedral Hill neighborhood that dates to 1886, when it opened as Sweeney's Dry Goods Store. Following Prohibition's repeal in 1933, the space became Tom's 96, where the Art Deco bar that still anchors the room today was installed. The building was purchased and restored in 1979 — the original exposed brick walls, oak floors, and tin ceiling were uncovered — and the Sweeney name returned to the sign out front. Today the saloon operates as a bar, restaurant, and private event venue. The Oak Room on the second floor offers a dedicated private bar, bartenders, and a stage area, accommodating up to 100 guests for a seated dinner or up to 200 for a cocktail reception. On the main floor, the Ashland Room is a semi-private space with a fireplace that seats up to 30 guests and accommodates up to 40 for a standing reception. The venue has hosted birthday parties, wedding receptions, concerts, comedy clubs, work socials, and celebrations of life.
