We hope you had the chance to try Handsome Hog in June, but now it’s time for something new! As you may know, Depot Refreshments is hosting Minnesota based chefs and restaurants during our brand new residency program. During the month of July, Groveland Tap will be taking over Depot Refreshments. Groveland Tap is a neighborhood beer and burger joint located in St. Paul, MN. Valleyfair guests will be treated to a special menu designed specifically for the park by David Burley and Stephanie Shimp.

David and Stephanie have a collection of neighborhood restaurants that have become known as The Blue Plate Restaurant Company. This includes delicious restaurants such as Highland Grill, Longfellow Grill, The Lowry, The Freehouse, Groveland Tap of course and many more!

Groveland Tap is known for its many mouth-watering Juicy Lucy’s. We are excited to serve up their classic Juicy Lucy - hearty ground beef stuffed with American Cheese on a toasted bun.

Valleyfair will offer a variety of Groveland Tap menu items including Meatloaf on a Stick, Juicy Lucy, Fish Tacos, Grilled Cheese, Pierogies, Sweet Potato Fries, and Tater Tots. You'll understand why their family-friendly dining room is always packed. Make sure to stop in during the month of July to experience the savory goodness of Groveland Tap, you won’t want to miss it!

Depot will also feature a variety of beer and cocktail selections for guests 21 years of age and older. Guests can enjoy Tattersall's Valleyfair Rum Punch, Summit Slugfest, and other domestic selections.
