About this spot

Catrinas Skyway is tucked into the skyway level of the First National Bank Building in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota, just across the Wabasha bridge from the city center. It's a quick, walk-up counter setup that has become a go-to lunch spot for office workers and downtown regulars.

The ordering system works Chipotle-style: pick a base, choose a protein, and load up on toppings and salsas. Breakfast options include burritos and bowls with eggs, potatoes, and meat available until 10am, while the build-your-own lunch menu features tostadas, chips and queso, and chips and guacamole. Friday is the day to come for the fish tacos, a weekly favorite among regulars, and the tres leches or flan make a fitting finish.

The vibe is fast and unfussy, built for a quick bite between meetings rather than a sit-down dinner. With friendly counter service and reliably fresh ingredients, Catrinas Skyway is best suited for breakfast or lunch on a weekday visit downtown.
