Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge - Second Location
Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States (Closed)
In November 2010, Psycho Suzi's Motor Lounge moved from their original location to this much larger space, just down the street and right on the Mississippi River.
The main level included a restaurant and bar, and a large patio overlooking the river. There were large carved posts and tikis, and walls lined with lauhala matting and carved wooden tchotchkes. On weekends, house band Exotik-a-Go-Go played Exotica music, and the upstairs area was open. The upstairs, Shangri-La, had three distinct themed bars: the Shrunken Head, Forbidden Cove, and Ports of Pleasure. Each of the upstairs bars could be rented out for private events.
From 2016 onward, Psycho Suzi's started an annual "Mary's Christmas Palace" event running from October 1st-January 31st where everything was converted to an over-the-top Christmas theme, including the drinks.
Their permanent closing was announced by the owner, Leslie Bock, for August 19th, 2023 on social media.
*NOTE: In September 2022, the owner listed this location for sale for $6 Million. By 2026, this property was still listed on Loop.net for a significant price drop at $4 Million.
