North Loop Wins Big in Mpls-St. Paul Magazine 2026 Readers Poll
The May issue of Mpls.St.Paul Magazine started arriving in mailboxes this week, with the cover story announcing readers’ “Best of the Twin Cities” choices in dozens of categories. More than thirty North Loop businesses won or placed in the magazine’s 2026 Readers’ Poll. Individual winners spanned several categories, including dining, cocktails, shopping, lodging, entertainment, health, fitness and beauty.
