Coffee House

Enjoy Great Coffee,
in a friendly hangout

WE SERVE THE BEST COFFEE ….
AND THAT’S JUST FOR STARTERS.

South Dakota Magazine is located just a few blocks away from Muddy Mo’s. Its journalists created the coffee shop to serve as a brick & mortar extension of the print magazine’s goal — fostering community in a flummoxed world.

THE KITCHEN

Our amazing staff makes and bakes all our good foods, salads and sweets in our own kitchen, just behind the big bar. Enjoy breakfast sandwiches, quiche, paninis, soups and lots of other Yankton favorites.

THE BAR

Behind our 1920s soda fountain, some of South Dakota’s finest baristas joyfully create your favorite hot and iced drinks, as well as smoothies, chai teas and seasonal specialties. Everyone comes with a smile.

ALL FOR YOU

Muddy Mo’s is for you. Our staff and regulars strive to create a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all — no matter your background, age, politics or other persuasions. Everybody belongs at Muddy Mo’s.

Almost everything you taste at Muddy Mo’s is sourced from southeast South Dakota and northeast Nebraska — including our honey, milks, eggs, breads, bagels, jellies and more. A Yankton native brews our kumbucha. Our coffee beans are roasted in Sioux Falls and Brookings. And ask us about the quail eggs!

OUR OLD OAK DOOR
OPENS EVERY MORNING
AT 7 AM ON WEEKDAYS.


Now and then some crabapple suggests that we replace the old oak door with the finicky handle. But it was here when the building was built in 1885, so we’re a tad reluctant to exchange it now. We open it at 7 AM on weekdays, 8 AM on Saturday and 9 AM on Sunday — and if it sticks, no worries. A barista or a friendly regular will rush to help you.

Dogs Are
Welcome.


Yes, we do discriminate. No cats. No pet pigs. No talking parrots. Only dogs are allowed at Muddy Mo’s — dogs and people. We are careful to be sure that dogs do not bother the cat people, who of course are very welcome.

MUDDY MO’S BELONGS
TO THE PEOPLE OF OUR
GREAT RIVER VALLEY


We mean that. So don’t be surprised if there’s a piano recital, a poetry reading, a college softball pep rally or some other event happening when you come through the door. Everybody is welcome at everything, so you belong. And we strive not to let the special events hinder the regular atmosphere. Can anyone play Blue Moon?

Good stories, good coffee, good company.

Ever wonder why so many restaurants just seem like like the "same old same old"? Its Sysco! Why does this even matter? Well at Muddy Mos they don't use Sysco food supply! Ok ... and? This is fantastic for the local community! Thanks to Muddy Mos local bakers, farmers and other producers benefit from them. To add to it Muddy Mo's quality is beyond the stars! Can you say STELLAR!? Its wonderful to be able to find a restaurant that uses local high quality products in their ingredients making their soups, sandwiched and other cafe meals an absolute delight. Grab a coffee on the go or the ever praised Açai bowl! Or enjoy a modern Cafe vibe in this historic 1800s building where today and yesteryears meet. This place is all around fantastic. You're missing out if you don't stop in! Hurry on up!
