Machine Shop

The Machine Shop is a historic, unique and bright venue in the heart of the vibrant St. Anthony neighborhood of Minneapolis. When the Pillsbury A Mill reigned as the largest working mill in the world, their machine shop was an integral piece of their operation and sustained success. This building has been carefully restored, keeping the original 1916 architectural details in tact, while introducing modern luxury in this industrial space. The building will again be a cornerstone for the city of Minneapolis, as a host of extraordinary and glamorous events.

Testimonials

“We fell in love with the space from day one and we couldn't be more happy with how our day turned out! We definitely made the right choice! Sheridan was very professional throughout the entire process and was prompt in replying to my many emails and requests to see the space. The Machine Shop will hold a special place in our hearts and we will continue to recommend it to all of our family & friends!” - Katie V.

“Beautiful space and great staff. We are so happy we chose this venue. We worked with David who was great and extremely responsive. He helped us create a flexible floor plan and bar menu for our wedding goals. We hosted the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at the Machine Shop. The room flip was very quick and efficient. Highly recommend venue.” - Allison G.

“We couldn't have asked for a better venue! The Machine Shop is everything we wanted and more. We worked with David, one of the Machine Shop's planners, who is thoughtful, kind and creative. He helped us create and execute an incredible event and suggested so many things we wouldn't have even thought of!” - Sara G.

“Made our dreams come true! Thank you Machine Shop for being the most incredible venue and so hospitable. Our wedding was truly magical.” - Alyssa R.

“My husband and I were so lucky to have our ceremony and reception at the BEAUTIFUL Machine Shop. Our main contacts there were Steph and Jessica and they were more than what we could have ever asked for. The Machine Shop team members are so passionate and want to help you throughout the whole wedding process. Our day was so magical and it was all thanks to the team behind the Machine Shop. All of our guests LOVED the venue because of the uniqueness and the historic bones that is has. We had so many great vendors come together on our big day and we cannot thank Machine Shop enough. It isn't too often that you can actually go back and visit your venue after the wedding but we are so thrilled that Machine Shop has their cocktail lounge area open every Monday called The Break Room. This happy couple will be back often to visit the beautiful space and catch up with the awesome staff! :) Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our big day so special!” -Chloe & Carter Sackett
