2025 Centurion Award winner
5-8 Club
Best Juicy Lucy in Minneapolis · Minneapolis, MN
Best Juicy Lucy in Minneapolis · Minneapolis, MN
The 5-8 Club opened as a Prohibition-era speakeasy in 1928 and is one of two Minneapolis taverns that claim to have invented the Juicy Lucy — a cheeseburger with the cheese sealed molten inside two patties. Order one with American, blue, pepper jack, or Swiss and let it cool before the first bite.
A South Minneapolis burger-and-beer institution, the 5-8 has been named among the country's best burger stops and remains a proudly unpretentious neighborhood classic.
Each Centurion Award is a dated record tied to one year’s evaluation — earned annually, never carried over. Open a year for the full citation and verification details.
Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.

This page is the standing record for 5-8 Club (2025). It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. For hours, bookings, and live reviews, go straight to the business itself.
If you’ve put in the years, you may already clear the bar. Evaluation is free, private, and never for sale.
