Happenings

Before the streets fill and the festival reaches its peak, make your way to the best rooftop party in Hopkins. We're excited to welcome back J-Mo in the Beat & the J-Lighters for the biggest night of the Raspberry Festival.

Known for their high-energy performance and crowd-pleasing sound, J-Mo and the band will keep the rooftop rocking from the first song to the last. Pair that with cold craft beer, great food, and our pop-up cocktail bar serving handcrafted cocktails all evening, and you've got the ultimate Raspberry Festival destination.

Whether you've spent the day enjoying the festival or you're looking for the perfect place to cap off the night, Bear Cave is where the celebration continues. Join us on the rooftop (weather permitting) for an unforgettable night of live music, great drinks, and the best atmosphere in town. There's no better place to experience the Hopkins Raspberry Festival.

Every Sunday

Settle into your Sunday the right way—with a rooftop view, a full bodied Bloody Mary & Mimosa Bar, and the kind of laid-back energy that turns one drink into an afternoon.

Join us every Sunday from 12–3 PM for a rotating spread of house-made mixes, fresh garnishes, and bubbles flowing. Whether you’re stacking your Bloody with all the fixings or keeping it classic with a crisp mimosa, this is your spot to ease into the day.

Weather permitting, we’ll be taking it upstairs—featuring our full bar setup on the rooftop patio overlooking historic Mainstreet. Sun, drinks, and a perfect vantage point… not a bad way to spend a Sunday.

No reservations needed—just bring your crew and settle in.
