DULUTH — The University of Minnesota Duluth and Amsoil Arena are hosting the 2023 NCAA Women’s Frozen Four this week featuring Ohio State, Northeastern, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Teams will begin arriving on Wednesday with games getting underway on Friday. The NCAA championship will be decided on Sunday.
In anticipation of Duluth hosting this year’s Frozen Four, the Bulldog Insider Podcast solicited advice from five veterans of the Bulldogs’ women’s hockey team who have been in the Twin Ports for the past 5-6 seasons.
Here were their top choices of where to get a good cup of coffee during the 2023 NCAA Frozen Four in Duluth:

Located in Duluth’s Lincoln Park Craft district, this is a go-to coffee shop for Bulldogs super seniors Anneke Linser, Kylie Hanley, Naomi Rogge, Emma Soderberg and Ashton Bell. In addition to coffee and espresso, 190 has non-coffee beverages, including caffeinated and herbal teas.
“The aesthetic is super calming and allows me to get a lot of homework done,” Rogge said.

Dovetail Cafe & Marketplace
1917 W Superior St, Duluth (1.8 miles from Amsoil Arena)

Another choice in the Lincoln Park neighborhood is Dovetail, which is part of the Duluth Folk School. In addition to coffee and espresso, the cafe has a small breakfast and lunch menu, and beer. It comes recommended by Linser and Rogge.
Dunn Brothers Coffee
2401 London Rd, Duluth (2.8 miles from Amsoil Arena)

The log cabin on London Road across from the Edge Waterpark and Hotel is where you can find Bell and Soderberg twice as week, which says something as these two have made it a point to visit almost every coffee shop in the Duluth area. The independently owned franchise features a breakfast and lunch menu, in addition to coffee and espresso.
