Get in on the Secret

Hotel Donaldson
Fargo

701.478.1000
Swanky digs aren’t exclusive to New York and L.A., you know; this "beautiful, art-inspired hotel" — which boasts flat-screen TVs, heated ceramic floors, and "a rooftop hot tub" — offers "reasonable rates, especially for a larger city." In addition to the "great rooms," the Donaldson provides ample opportunity for eating and drinking, whether at the swanky "roof bar," the "nice restaurant," or the "front bar for lunch during the day and drinks later."

Enchanted Highway
Regent

701.563.6400
No great American road trip is complete without a foray down the "wide-open empty space" of the Enchanted Highway, where the "uniqueness" of the "huge sculptures" fashioned by artist Gary Greff adds a little eye candy to the asphalt. "Pictures don’t describe the size" of the enormous pieces, "because unless you’re there in person, there isn’t anything to relate them to." Rest assured, though, that one of them — clocking in at 110 feet tall and 154 feet long — is listed in the Guinness Book of Records. Read more.

Bertrosa’s Chicago Café
Fargo

701.364.0123
Former Chicago resident Bert Myers "has brought the food, the décor, and the attitude" of the Windy City to "his little slice of Fargo." In addition to a large selection of sandwiches, a $5.19 lunch special, and "friendly" service, Bertrosa’s comes with the guarantee that this is where "the most colorful people in the region hang out." Don’t you dare think about arriving with anything less than an empty stomach, though — after all, "you always get more food than you bargained for." Read more.

Medora Musical
Medora

701.623.4444
In the "quaint and friendly" town of Medora, the "million-dollar" Burning Hills Amphitheater plays host to a "nightly open-air variety show" featuring singers and dancers, live horses, and two hours of "heart-stirring" family fun, much of it "built around the Teddy Roosevelt Rough Rider theme." If you’re hungry, opt for the "pitchfork steak fondue" dinner beforehand, and rest assured: "the plays and dinner are always very good." Read more.

Babb’s Coffee House
Fargo

701.271.0222
The background of the walls at Babb's Coffee House sports a picture of the Seattle skyline. It hints at the fact that this place takes coffee seriously. So seriously in fact, that they actually have all their tea and coffee roasted and air-lifted in each week. The muffins, bagels, sandwiches, and other pastries are "always fresh" and the syrups are all-natural. "On a cold winter’s night, there’s nothing more warming than a caramel latte along with live music and poetry readings." Babb’s sits right in the center of downtown Fargo, across from the historic Fargo Theater. Read more.
