As a small boy growing up down in Delta County, MI, young Pablo Maki had a dream. His dream was of a big city coffee shop in downtown Marquette, up on the quiet shores of Lake Superior, in the heart of the Savage North. We at Dead River Coffee are committed to keeping little Pablo’s dream alive.

We custom roast a wide selection of fine Arabica coffees brought from exotic locales with strange-sounding names, available by the cup or by the pound.

We’re still serving home-made pie and other baked goods just the way Señora Maki made them for the boys in the lumber camps!
