Malina’s Sport Bar

This is a Hmong bar, which generally means, it’s a dive.
The Hmong people here are mostly in their 30s –40s. Hmong people in their 20s would probably either be at Myth in Maplewood or Epic downtown Minneapolis.
It’s a tiny venue with one main bar and two billiard tables squeezed into the space. There’s a tiny dance floor and some booth seating and table seating. Music was Hmong music and I think there is karaōke here too… not completely sure.
I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here nor would I bother to drop by here even if I lived in the neighborhood, but this is where all the Saint Paul Hmong people go for drinks. It has a reputation for being shady aka shootings every now and then. So unless you’re a «whimsical» Hunter S. Thompson character, this place might make you pee in your pants.

not a bad place to hang out. been remodel so it looks nicer. but expect fighs at bars. typical for alot of Asian bars
