Very nice find in rural Minnesota! The lovely town of St. Peter boasts many hidden treasures. Amongst my personal favorites is the Co-op. It’s a wonderful stop to grab a high quality snack or meal at the deli. You’ll find ample seating in a cleanly atmosphere should you desire to meet a friend for a creative and delicious lunch date. The market is the draw for visitors and St. Peter residents alike. You’ll find a wide range of fresh organic, vegan and speciality foods. Favorite items from my last shopping haul include: a beautiful fruit/ shopping basket made in Africa, slices of glycerin soap containing fragrant coffee beans, a handmade greeting card and gourmet chocolate bars that I heard were devine! I really enjoy the cosmetic section of mineral based products, produce that often appears “cherry picked” and gluten free baked goods. Service is consistently pleasant, pricing is a little steep on some items, hours are user friendly and the Co-op is a bus stop for Land-to-Air express travelers (going to and from Mankato, Shakopee, Mall of America and DT Minneapolis). Enjoy!
Absolutely delicious!! Got the Vanilla Bean Latte and Sweet Cardamom Latte and also had a gluten free strawberry and lemon cornmeal muffin. Cardamom Latte came pre-recommended and both lattes were absolutely delicious! If I go back I’m going to try their Homemade Chai (from herbs). Muffin was also extremely scrumptious and I would have happily eaten more.
Friendly place with local ads and lots of little two-person tables. Ended up chatting with a local for our entire time here and wouldn’t have rather spent it any other way.
My family loves Jake’s Pizza in Saint Peter! It’s fantastic to have gluten free restaurant options in our community, and Jake’s has delicious menu items.
