Right next door to Enger Lofts, you must try these hearty taco varieties. This place is a team fave for us! Psst.. hidden ๐Ÿ’Ž for a stay along the shore, they also have a hostel you can rent for a simple vacay stay.

A newer little restaurant to our neck of the woods is graffiti themed burger joint. My fave burger is Galaxy Surfer- but you truly can't go wrong. Be sure to not miss out of their ๐Ÿ’Ž of a co*cktail menu!

This brunch spot has become one of Duluth's most iconic spots. It's all local, fresh and organic- you can truly taste the difference.

๐Ÿ’Ž They have a full coffee and drink menu that, of course, is extensive with so many yummy + unique choices while having brunch. Note, they are only open until 3:00 pm, and can be very busy! Call ahead to help your wait time, it is well worth the wait!

๐Ÿ’Ž they deliver to the cideries and breweries around our neighborhood!

Each one of their loafs is made by hand with only four ingredients- including wild yeast! And there is a reason why they are called "Duluth's Best Bread!"

One of my faves is their handmadepop-tarts!๐Ÿ’ŽYou can find a few of their treats at 190 Coffee & Tea!

The best ice cream you will find in Duluth!

It features locally sourced dairy in all their scoops. Maybe you don't want to brave their Canal Park location during this busy weekend, so remember they have two locations- the other being in Lincoln Park for all your ice cream needs!
