The 1920s Commodore Bar will reopen Oct. 27 as a full-service restaurant, bar, cocktail lounge and banquet hall in the Commodore Hotel in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
The Commodore Bar closed in 1984. When it did, Saint Paul lost a bit of its past. Authors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Sinclair Lewis are past customers of the bar.
The Commodore Restaurant, Bar and Lounge will initially be open five days a week — Tuesdays through Saturdays — from 4 p.m. until midnight.
