The Kitchen is located next door to the Cafe in the old Coney Island space in Downtown Duluth. The Kitchen features farm to table food, a full bar serving cocktails, as well as your favorite coffee drinks. The Kitchen has a full espresso bar with farm specific coffees and a craft cocktail menu. The cocktail menu includes a house made Bloody, and an espresso martini made with Zenith City Espresso, port wine and local maple syrup. Brunch options include Settlement Stash biscuits and gravy, a Harvest Hash, loaded French Toast and even a Bahn Mi sandwich. All of the food is sourced with the same intention as the coffee; with the focus on the farmer. The space is open 8am to 3pm daily with a full bar and booth seating.
Do you have a group of people you love to meet with for a common hobby, passion, or cause? We would love it if you called our space your home. Ask us about hosting your group and enabling regular community meetups. Or, just come.
Born and raised in Duluth, MN, Matt and Erin Glesner and have known each other their entire lives. They share a passion for helping people and had a dreamed of doing this through what is now The Loch Cafe and Games. This hybrid coffee shop/game store is meant to be a safe haven for anyone needing somewhere to be themselves, without judgment, and create a social space that gives back by letting the community un-loch their inner nerd through one of Matt and Erin’s favorite past-times: gaming.
At Wired Whisker, our mission is to help find safe and loving forever homes for as many rescue cats as possible by providing a welcoming space for humans and adoptable cats to bond. We believe that cats have the power to feed the soul and heal the mind, and we want to share that magic with as many people as possible. Our space is split into two sections: the cafe and the cat lounge. The Cafe: Entry into the cafe is free, with no cats. In the cafe, you will find our order counter, plenty of seating, and restrooms similar to a regular coffee shop. Journey down the hall, and you will find the entrance to our cat lounge, along with a large picture window for viewing! The Cat Lounge: There is a nominal cost to enter the cat lounge, which helps us provide the best for our adoptable rescue kitties during their time with us. Here, you will find our cats, comfy seating, and a relaxing environment.
Duluth’s Best Bread is cold fermented and baked with high heat and high moisture for a true crust and a soft, chewy interior. The wild yeast gives it a natural tanginess and makes this a mild sourdough. Each loaf is made by hand the traditional way. The recipe technique is 40 pages long and takes at least 5 hours.
