Coffee, Creativity, Community

Now Open at 102 W Superior St in Downtown Duluth Minnesota

Creativity Matters


We are all creative souls.

It is our belief that practicing and expressing creativity makes us happier and healthier people.

We also realize that it may not be simple or easy for everyone, and that like most things, it can take some practice.

Studio Café aims to help cultivate and enable expressing creativity in everyone by making it easy to get started with traditional arts and crafts mediums.

Sit for awhile.

Draw something, watercolor, sew, fold paper, crochet.

Let us make you a coffee, while you make something the world has never seen.

Our vision is to show the world that coffee shops can nurture the human soul.

Interested in buying or selling a typewriter? This might be a good opportunity!
