MN Traders Co.

A SEASONAL SHIFT ☕️

Beginning Monday, August 31, MN Traders Co. will be open daily from 7 AM–2 PM.

After an incredible summer, we’re thoughtfully adjusting our hours for this next season—not forever—to give our team the time and focus needed to consistently be at our best and serve our guests well.

You can still count on the same handcrafted coffee, breakfast, lunch, cocktails and Traders experience you love—seven days a week, just a touch earlier as we head back into routines, school and cooler weather.

Thank you for an amazing summer and for continuing to support our locally owned small business. We’re incredibly grateful for this community and can’t wait to keep serving you.

NEW SEASONAL HOURS ☕️

Beginning Sunday, August 30, MN Traders Co. will be open daily from 7 AM–2 PM.

As summer season begins to shift, we’ve made the thoughtful decision to adjust our hours in a way that best supports our team, our business and the experience we want to bring to all of you!

You can still count on your Traders favorites: locally roasted coffee and hand crafted drinks to breakfast, lunch and cocktails, just on a slightly earlier schedule.

Thank you for continuing to show up for our locally owned small business. We’re grateful to keep serving you, seven days a week.

🚧 OPEN THROUGH CONSTRUCTION! 🚧

Construction has officially started on Front and Main Streets, but MN Traders is still open daily from 7 AM to 4 PM.

Follow the detour signs, take the extra turn and keep showing up for your favorite local businesses. A little construction now means good things are coming to Pequot Lakes!

Thank you to the Pequot Lakes Police Department and Pequot Lakes Chamber of Commerce for keeping our community informed and helping everyone navigate the changes.

The route may look a little different, but the coffee, food and cocktails are right where you left them. We’ll see you soon! ☕️

With construction up ahead in our backyard, let this serve as a reminder that WE ARE OPEN through construction, follow the detours and support your local businesses even if it takes the extra mile ;)

Thanks to our local Pequot Lakes Police Department and Pequot Lakes Chamber of Commerce for the communication and awareness spread through all the change. Good things coming to Pequot!

🚧 Front & Main Street Construction Update 🚧

We’re gearing up for the Main Street phase of the construction project!

⚠️ MAIN STREET WILL BE CLOSED TO TRAFFIC BEGINNING MONDAY, AUGUST 10.

Beginning Monday, August 10, the contractor plans to do preparation work for the Main Street phase. This is expected to take approximately 3–4 days.

The Main Street phase of construction is scheduled to begin Monday, August 17, starting with reclamation of the existing asphalt.

Detour and directional signage will be placed to help guide motorists through the area.

As always, construction schedules are tentative and may change due to weather, crew availability, or other unforeseen circumstances. We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we begin the next phase of these important improvements!
