Shafritz & Dean’s Duluth office is located at 3100 Breckinridge Blvd., Suite 120, putting you close to the restaurants, breweries, patios and entertainment of Historic Downtown Duluth.
Here are five spots worth checking out after you get the keys, sign the final documents and officially make it to the other side of the closing table.
1. Good Word Brewing & Public House — For the “We Closed!” Toast
If your idea of celebrating involves a great beer, good food and a relaxed atmosphere, Good Word Brewing & Public House is an easy choice.
Located at 3085 Main St. in Downtown Duluth, Good Word combines a neighborhood pub atmosphere with house-brewed beer and a full food menu. It’s open for lunch Tuesday through Sunday and stays open late, making it a particularly good option when your closing runs later than expected.
The atmosphere is also a natural fit for a group of Realtors, clients or colleagues who want to sit down and talk about the deal after the paperwork is finished.
Best for: Craft beer, casual lunch, dinner and a post-closing toast.

2. PURE Taqueria — For Margaritas & a More Festive Celebration
Sometimes a closing calls for tacos. Sometimes it calls for a margarita. And sometimes you need both.
PURE taqueria in Downtown Duluth serves Mexican-inspired food with a lively atmosphere, creative menu and, according to the restaurant, “killer margaritas.” Located at 3108 Main Street, it serves lunch and dinner, with later hours Friday and Saturday.
It’s a particularly good option for a casual client lunch, Realtor team celebration or happy-hour-style gathering after a successful transaction.
Best for: Tacos, margaritas and a lively celebration.
3. Noona Meat & Seafood — When the Closing Deserves a Special Dinner
Not every closing is created equal. Maybe it was your biggest transaction of the year. Maybe a difficult deal finally made it across the finish line. Or maybe your clients simply deserve a memorable dinner.
That’s where Noona Meat & Seafood comes in.
Located in Parsons Alley, Noona specializes in steaks and fresh seafood with Korean-inspired flavors. Its open kitchen features a nine-foot wood-burning hearth, while the bar offers craft beers, cocktails, whiskey and wine.
Noona also offers a daily oyster happy hour from 4–6 p.m., making it an intriguing option for an early post-closing celebration.
Best for: Celebratory dinners, business dinners, steak, seafood and cocktails.
4. LR Burger — For a Casual, No-Fuss Celebration
Sometimes you don’t need a fancy dinner. You just need a really good burger after spending the day dealing with contracts, lenders, inspections and closing documents.
LR Burger at 3151 Main St. offers smash burgers, chicken, hot dogs, sandwiches, salads, fries and shakes.
It’s a great choice when the goal is to grab something delicious, keep things casual and celebrate without making a big production out of it.
And let’s be honest: after a stressful closing, a burger and fries can be pretty satisfying.
Best for: Casual lunches, burgers, families and quick celebrations.
5. Truck & Tap Duluth — For Drinks, Food Trucks & Live Music
If your perfect post-closing celebration sounds more like cold drinks, outdoor seating and live music, head to Truck & Tap Duluth at 3137 Main Street.
Truck & Tap features rotating food trucks alongside a craft beer selection, so there’s always the possibility of trying something different. The venue doesn’t take reservations and describes itself as a casual neighborhood pub.
It also regularly hosts live music and themed events. For example, its September 2026 calendar includes Thursday drink specials and live music, Friday and Saturday live music, comedy and karaoke.
Best for: Drinks, groups, live music and a relaxed post-closing hangout.
Make Closing Day the Start of the Celebration
One of the best things about the Duluth office is that closing doesn’t have to be the end of the experience. Once the documents are signed and the transaction is officially complete, you’re surrounded by a Downtown Duluth dining and entertainment district with options for everything from a quick burger to an upscale steak dinner.
So the next time you close a deal at Shafritz & Dean, don’t just shake hands and head back to the office.
Celebrate the win. Grab a meal. Raise a glass. And enjoy the fact that everyone walked away happy.
