Famous Dave Anderson opened his first BBQ Shack in 1994 in Hayward, Wisconsin. It became wildly popular, serving up to 5,000 people a week in a town of only 1,800. Famous Dave’s second BBQ joint was modeled on the roadhouse shacks of the old South. People drove from all over the Twin Cities to fill the 50-seat dining room and 25-seat screened-in porch. Linden Hills was wildly successful and thus began the expansion of Famous Dave’s across America.
In September 1996, Famous Dave's BBQ & Blues opened in Minneapolis, and is the only franchise (out of 179) with weekly live music. Modeled after a street in Chicago (complete with an elevated train track (plus sound and visual effects) the club has won awards for Best Music, Best Blues Vocalist, Best Restaurant Design, and Best Take-Out Menu.
