If you’re looking for a fun place to grab dinner before visiting The Great Pumpkin Trail or The Dead End Hayride, or are just looking for a spooky place to dine, I have a spot to add to your fall bucket list!
My husband and I recently enjoyed a date night at Cornerstone Pub and Prime in Wyoming, Minnesota, and they have really embraced spooky season!
From the moment you walk in, you’ll notice that the restaurant is decked out for Halloween. There are decorations throughout the space! And the Halloween fun doesn’t stop with the decorations.
A Halloween-Themed Menu (With Some Spooky Names!)
One of the things I loved was how they completely incorporated Halloween into their menu. Their entire menu has been given spooky-themed names for the season, and they even have Halloween-inspired cocktails!
We kicked off our date night with two of their themed drinks: the Blood Bag and the Pumpkin Punch. Both were a fun way to get into the Halloween spirit!
For food, we started with their Spinach and Artichoke Dip. It’s always a great appetizer to share, especially when you’re enjoying a night out together.
For our entrees, we tried two of their menu items:
- Maple Monster: A double smashed burger topped with bacon and maple aioli. If you love a good burger with a little sweet and savory combination, this one deserves your attention!
- Cut Off the Gut: Their prime rib offering. My husband gave it a thumbs-up after his first bite, and ate every bite.
They have a lot of other appealing menu items too – it was hard to choose!
More Than Just Dinner
What makes Cornerstone Pub and Prime a particularly fun stop during October is that the Halloween atmosphere extends throughout the entire restaurant. There are decorations everywhere, plenty of festive touches, and even special events happening throughout the season.
It’s a great option if you’re planning an evening of Halloween activities in the area, like the Great Pumpkin Trail or Dead End Hayride.
You can enjoy a good meal, sip on a festive cocktail, take in all the Halloween decorations, and then head off for the rest of your spooky evening!

Add This to Your Minnesota Fall Bucket List!
Whether you’re planning a date night, a night out with friends, or looking for somewhere fun to eat before a Halloween attraction, Cornerstone Pub and Prime is worth adding to your list.
I love finding local spots that go all out for the season, and this is definitely one of them. Between the festive atmosphere, Halloween-themed drinks, creative menu names, and special events, it’s a fun way to make an ordinary dinner out feel a little more seasonal.
Happy spooky season!
Plus they are going all out for the winter holidays!
I chatted with owner Jake and he told me all about the over-the-top Christmas decorations they’ve gotten for the whole holiday season. Be sure to come back then – I know we will!
