    Pretty cool iconic Minneapolis site. Great for picture taking. Very nice to come here in the summer and autumn. Nice crossing the bridge from Loring Park. There usually is some free two hour parking over there. At the cherry and spoon site you are very close to the sculpture garden and the walker art center. 💕❤️⚽🍏👀🙏😀 Worth the time to walk around the entire park.

    Beautiful art! It's free to see . the parking lot costs $4 or you can park in a ramp that costs $6 . if you don't mind walking a few blocks away it's free

    This park is very visual. It’s small, has great visual art, beautiful garden, a patch of a prairie, paid parking lot which makes it easy to find parking. I visit it every time I’m in Minneapolis!

    I recommend this place to anyone visiting Minneapolis for the fist time. It’s beautiful watching the city through a spoon😂😂 The bridge has an excellent view of cars in and out of Minneapolis

    We all need more art in our lives — particularly free, open-air, pieces to interact with and enjoy. Pack a picnic or go on a stroll in this lovely slice of green and sculpture in the heart of the city!

    The Spoonbridge and Cherry in the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden is a true testament to the beauty and creativity of public art. Its unique design and vibrant colors stand out, making it a focal point of the garden. During my visit, I was captivated by its charm and the serene ambiance it added to the surroundings. It's not just a sculpture; it's an experience. I absolutely loved it and would recommend everyone to witness its beauty when in Minneapolis.

    I took time to read how this sculpture works, why it is located in the middle of what is a water table, and the purpose it serves as the focal point of the collection. It's amazing from every view point.

    It's always an amazing time when at the a Walker art and visiting the spoonbridge and cherry🍒. Educational, bring people and talk art or what you thought it was and how you understand each concept from each artist.

    Love this place. The sculpture it’s amazing, I love the fountain cherry. Was super hot and sunny day, so I recommend early morning or when the sun it’s doing down.

    Great little footbridge. Cool graffiti, and it has nice views of the city. It's not too far up if you're worried about heights.

  • 5/5 Ryan R. 1 year ago on Google
    I visit this park every few years. The cherry and spoon are a classic pair. The black tower was new to me, kind of weird in a good way. Brought Roxy with and took some nice photos too.

    So glad I finally made it here! Free and plenty of parking on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Lovely native gardens, and lots of great public art along with the iconic centerpiece. Clean public bathrooms were available.

    Iconic Minneapolis landmark located in the sculpture garden next to the Walker Art Center. The cherry is just back from repainting in NY. Not sure how many winter photos have been posted so I thought I'd grab a couple on this unusually warm February day.

    Love this sculpture. Lived across the street in a short-term rental for a few months. Still live nearby — yay! It’s so fun and a great landmark. Neat to see so many people visiting it as well as the rest of the garden.

    A Landmark piece of 🎨. Glad it finally got its own home 4now.

  • 5/5 Vanessa M. 1 year ago on Google
    I think this piece of art is the most photographed piece in the sculpture garden. Thankfully, when I visited, it wasn't too crowded so I was able to get a good pic. There was a chair in front of the art piece that has a broken arm. I think they should fix it or replace it before someone hurts themselves. Be sure to check out all of the other beautiful pieces of art.

    We went when it was cold and it was so peaceful. If you like art and large scale structures, you'll enjoy it. I would advise visitors to be careful visiting the Spoonbridge when there's lots of snow. The snow can cover the water under the bridge, making the ground appear solid. There are signs posted but just take extra caution here.

    A phenomenal piece of with an amazing area around it to sit and enjoy the peacefulness and tranquility that is imparted by Sight, and Sound!!!!

  • 5/5 Emeril R. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I've came here a few times just to look at the cherry & the spoon, but I've never taken the time to walk around. I'm absolutely stunned by this artwork & the way the have the paths set up. Absolutely gorgeous.

    I would like to distinguish the fact of the red vibrant cherry is real with the metal spoon
