That said, it could be entirely possible that the crew we encountered at the outdoor hot tub the night prior could have been responsible for wiping out most of their inventory; those guys were out to party hard. There is a good selection of beers in the fridge, especially from local breweries down round Duluth. The place smelled like the dude was just finishing a cigarette, which repelled me. But he gave me a portable corkscrew so it was all good.

Groceries. Fishing bait and tackle. Unfortunately, the day I want the coffee machine was not functioning. And the coffee shop next-door was not open mid week. It's a gas station too. Located right next to the post office in Lutsen. There's not much else around. They have some cold sandwiches that you can heat up in a microwave, but no grab and go hot food. No fresh pastries, or donuts, everything is premade and packaged. A decent store with some nice variety.

Darling vintage spot to stop for breakfast, coffee, or lunch on the North Shore near Lutsen!…read more You'll feel like you're in a true gem on the North Shore. They have coffee mugs of locals hung on the walls, vintage photos and news clippings, and incredible northern decor. We came in on a Monday afternoon in fall and ordered: - biscuits and gravy: my husband LOVED this - omelette with hash browns: delicious and crispy I expected bigger portions for the price, so was a bit disappointed in that as we were ready for a filling hearty brunch! The service was funny - our server must have been bored and really wanted to chat us up, which we didn't mind. I'd love to see this place more busy and more folks to know about it! We were the only ones in at that time. They also sell some convenience store items like OTC meds, non perishables, dry goods, etc. They also carry some local products and tourist goods. Come for the ambiance and coffee!

They had raw but I didn't want that much' But for an extra buck I spotted Lars own Swedish Pearl Sugar in a 10 oz. bag. It's really all I needed for the trip so that over my cheapness won out. Large, white grounds like you've never seen. Well, hell if I didn't stop and pick up 3 bags for the trip home. I'm not gonna be without this stuff. I was able to help a guy fine some vanilla cause things kinda get buried in this aisle. I asked him if he wanted pure or the junk? He gave the right answer and was very grateful for the help.

The only down sides are the cramped aisles and small variety -- they have a lot of products, but not many different brands, as fits their patrons' needs. The staff are friendly and helpful, though, so I strongly encourage a stop. If you are in the area, I recommend buying a Superior Forest map at the co-op. They cost around $10 (I got a waterproof one), but they will show the trails and dirt roads that will help you figure out where things are. On-line maps are not reliable at placing things in this part of Minnesota; for example, this co-op is actually a mile or two south of the bridge over the Baptism river.
