What happened after Man v. Food?

Betty Danger's Country Club was a novelty-themed bar and restaurant at 2501 Marshall Street Northeast in Minneapolis's Northeast Arts District, featuring a rooftop Ferris wheel and a mini-golf course, according to Bring Me The News coverage. Man v. Food included the venue in its Minneapolis stop, which aired May 28, 2018, alongside stops at Blue Door Pub and Lu's Sandwiches. Bring Me The News reported the business stopped operating in 2022, and the property later sold for $3.5 million in December 2024, according to the Star Tribune as cited by Bring Me The News.

KARE 11 reported the space was subsequently taken over by a replacement restaurant that kept the Ferris wheel and mini-golf course. That successor operation, reported by Bring Me The News and AOL as 'Hey Y'all, Tipsy Taco Bar,' itself announced it would 'close indefinitely,' with its last day of regular service reported as February 7, 2026.
