The Lynhall No. 2640 Private Events & Catering

"A plethora of sprinkles, subdued watercolor-style buttercream, precisely-arranged flower petals: Each cake on the Lynhall’s menu has a distinct personality. The lemon vanilla funfetti cake with prickly pear panna cotta and raspberry filling is a customer favorite, but the minimal cookies-and-cream cake and sophisticated pistachio passion fruit cake are also exquisite. Cakes range from $110 to $130 (plus tax)." - Stacy Brooks, Eater Staff

"Classy Lynhall is a versatile brunch restaurant and event space. The farmhouse-styled interior is an ideal, cozy spot to enjoy a lavender latte with a creamy chestnut-and-mushroom omelet, or a gruyere-stuffed croque-monsieur. It’s also a great place to park at the long, rustic wooden tables and crank out some work in a relaxing atmosphere." - Natalia Mendez, Julie Zhou

"The Lynhall feels like an upscale version of a neighborhood coffee shop, with plenty of natural light, communal wooden tables, and an esoteric assortment of ceramic crockery and gleaming metal vases on the shelves behind the bar. They do brunch every day, but the menu is bigger and has some gems you can’t find during the week, like a shakshouka with chickpea fries. The bakery has excellent chocolate croissants and savory galettes, but you can also just go big and order the pastry board that comes with five different pastries to share. In addition to the usual boozy brunch suspects, the cocktail menu includes an interesting breakfast martini made with gin, vodka, orange cordial, marmalade, and orange bitters." - Stacy Brooks

"Enjoy a lineup of holiday classics with a twist from the Lynhall, with Christmas breakfast items like challah French toast casserole and a la carte sides including warm duck confit salad, crème fraiche mashed potatoes, and mushroom gravy. Save room for dessert, with treats such as chocolate peppermint swirl cheesecake and eggnog custard pie. Many items are vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or dairy-free. Order by December 18 for pickup on December 23 or 24 at the LynLake location." - Stacy Brooks, Eater Staff

"This farmhouse-styled restaurant in Uptown regularly holds all manner of private events both in a formal private dining room that’s framed by a roaring fireplace and a smaller, more casual private room. An additional location in Edina is also ripe for a party — private event menus feature rotisserie meats, seasonal vegetable dishes, fresh-baked breads, and more." - Joy Summers, Tierney Plumb
