Details
The Stubborn Donkey is a Latin-inspired bar and restaurant in Rochester, Minnesota, built around bold flavors, handcrafted cocktails, and genuinely good hospitality - without the pretension. We believe you shouldn't have to know the difference between a spirit and a spirit-forward cocktail to feel welcome at our bar. Whether you're here for dinner, drinks, a celebration, or simply a good night out, our goal is simple: make you feel at home while giving you something worth coming back for.
Our kitchen brings together vibrant Latin-inspired flavors and approachable dishes, while our cocktail program combines quality spirits, fresh ingredients, house-made syrups, and creative techniques to create drinks that are as memorable as they are enjoyable.
At The Stubborn Donkey, we're stubborn about doing things well. We care about the details, but we don't take ourselves too seriously. We believe hospitality should be genuine, energetic, and personal - not stuffy, intimidating, or full of unnecessary rules. Come for the food, stay for the cocktails, and leave feeling like you found your new favorite spot. No pretension. No attitude. Just damn good food, damn good drinks, and stubbornly good hospitality.
