Depot Coffee House
Overview
The Depot is a renovated train depot in Hopkins that now serves as a coffee house, youth community project and trail head for area bike trails.
The Depot opened in 1998 as the result of a four-year collaborative effort to create a chemically-free environment for teens by many local business people, service organizations, volunteers and students from the Hopkins School District.
Board of Directors
The Depot is unique in that its Board of Directors consists of high schoolers, providing students an opportunity to create their own place to learn, relax, and have fun while running a coffee shop and investing their efforts in the local community and economy. All of the Depot's profits go to support programs for teens.
Rentals
The Depot Coffee House is available to rent for private parties and/or business meetings. To rent, visit the Depot Coffee House Website.
Depot Youth Foundation
The Depot Youth Foundation was established in 2012 to sustain the youth programs at the Depot Coffee House. The Foundation is a charitable non-profit registered as a 501(c)3 organization with the State of Minnesota and the IRS. For more information, visit the Depot Youth Foundation Page.
