Wedged between two Dinkytown storefronts, you'll find this slim shoebox of a place, with 14 counter stools and haphazard decor akin to a teenager's bedroom. Lifelong regulars snuggle in with ravenous University of Minnesota coeds. The cook at the grill in front of you provides the entertainment. The hearty Leonard scrambled egg dish has plenty of tomatoes and sausage resting on top. For a new experience, there are waffles with strips of bacon strewn inside.
From Wikipedia - At a width of ten feet, Al's Breakfast is reportedly the narrowest restaurant in the city of Minneapolis, and possibly the narrowest full-service breakfast diner with counter-only seating in the world. Al's Breakfast (Dinkytown Branch) is crammed into a former alleyway between two much larger buildings and is located—appropriately—in the city's Dinkytown neighborhood near the University of Minnesota. The restaurant's 14 stools have seated generations of students, along with notable figures such as writer James Lileks, humorist Garrison Keillor, and former governor Wendell Anderson, all of whom consider the tiny diner to be a significant icon of the state.
