The restaurant has been around for more than 60 years and describes itself as a “landmark” in the Minnesota city.

“Proud of our humble beginnings as a 3.2-tavern with room for only 50 guests, Park Tavern has grown to become a Twin Cities destination, hosting events for up to 500 people,” the restaurant says on its website.

“It brings up great joy to see multiple generations of families enjoying themselves here.”

Minnesota State Patrol was on the scene late Sunday to handle the crash reconstruction as the investigation remains active, St. Louis Park police said.
