MN State Fair 2022 - New Vegan Items and More
In 2024 French Meadow Bakery & Cafe celebrates our 30th award-winning year at the Minnesota State Fair. In the tradition of our flagship restaurant in Minneapolis, but with a special State Fair twist, we offer fair-goers a variety of freshly baked, innovative, and organic indulgences, plus artisan refreshments and fair-trade Peoples Organic Coffee drinks, all of which can be enjoyed on our adjacent patio area.
A relied-upon first stop for our famous fresh fruit-stuffed hot scones -- the specialty that launched our State Fair business in 1994 and was named by food critic Rick Nelson of the Minneapolis Tribune as "deserving a place in the State Fair Hall of Fame" -- French Meadow is a mainstay ALL DAY at the fair for a wide range of delicious offerings, including our pioneering vegan and gluten-free specialties, along with delicious fare for traditional omnivores. Our fresh specialties are baked on-site, all day, every day!
FIND US AT 1703 CARNES AVENUE at UNDERWOOD STREET, across from WCCO and Ye Olde Mill.
OFFICIAL NEW FOOD at the 2024 STATE FAIR!
As the local OG of vegan and organic food, French Meadow is proud to announce that our official new State Fair food item for 2024 is both vegan & gluten free. (Not to brag, but there's a reason we were voted Best Vegan in Mpls St. Paul Magazine's recent Readers Poll!)
