🍔 Peppers and Fries is closing at the end of the month

Peppers and Fries, the beloved burgers-and-burritos sports bar on 39th and Lake Street, is closing June 29 after almost 10 years in business.

Father-and-daughter duo Steve and Marie Frias have been planning to sunset the bar since the fall. Having recently finalized the sale of the building to a yet-undisclosed buyer, they made the announcement on social media earlier this morning.

Both Steve and Marie grew up in the restaurant business: Steve's parents opened the renowned Mexican restaurant Boca Chica in St. Paul in the 1960s, where both children and grandchildren eventually worked.
