join us for borderland lodge’s summer opener party!

sunday, may 31 / 4-7pm

Kick off the season with us! we’re opening the season with a party — a chance to get a preview of what's coming out of our kitchen before the season hits full swing. We'll have menu favorites, specials to come, and a few one-offs we’re just inspired by right now.

Guests will also enjoy wine flights from Lutsen Winery, and live music from Pat Eliasen. Instead of a seated meal we’ll have snack-sized samples floating so you can meander around and get a taste of everything!

You’ll also see our friend Kara lending her firepower in the kitchen. over the winter we collaborated on a few special dishes inspired by our BWCA surroundings and we are SO excited to share them with you!

How to attend:

rsvp via the form below. Ticket + any additional purchases paid @ the party.
$40 Ticket includes: Food + 1 Wooden Nickel (aka a free drink 🍻)
