Ole Store Restaurant

Established in the late 1880s first as a grocery store, the historic Ole Store Restaurant is nestled in a quaint neighborhood in Northfield’s west side of town, just down the hill from St. Olaf College. It’s a landmark establishment and continues to be a favorite dining spot for local patrons as well as out-of-town visitors to the area. The welcoming atmosphere, coupled with outstanding cuisine and local farm-fresh foods, brings back satisfied customers again and again. Reopened under new ownership during the summer of 2011.  We boast an upscale casual contemporary menu with all the charm of a neighborhood location. Our menu has been designed to showcase local ingredients, fresh produce, and the finest meats.  You'll find our presentation and excellent service refreshing and worthy of a return.  We look forward to serving you and welcoming you to the neighborhood.
