CEO
Hello there! I'm Hunter Huebbe, a 21-year-old entrepreneur with a passion for coffee. In May 2023, I took on the exciting role of becoming the proud owner of Straight River Coffee, where I'm dedicated to creating a warm and inviting space for coffee enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike.
My journey in the coffee industry began two years ago when I joined the workforce. During this time, I honed my skills and developed a deep appreciation for the art of brewing the perfect cup. This hands-on experience has been invaluable and has fueled my desire to bring exceptional coffee experiences to my community.
A proud graduate of OHS in 2020, I believe in the importance of education and continuous learning. My educational background, combined with my practical experience, forms the foundation of my commitment to delivering quality service and products at Straight River Coffee.
Before diving into the world of coffee, I spent time at Old Town Bagel, where I gained insights into the food and beverage industry. Each step of my journey has contributed to my growth and shaped my dedication to providing not just a cup of coffee but an entire experience for my customers.
I am excited about the future of Straight River Coffee and am committed to creating a space where people can come together, savor excellent coffee, and make lasting memories. Join me on this journey, and let's share the joy that a great cup of coffee brings.

Reviews
I was so happy when I saw Straight River Coffee in the Mankato HyVee! They had a wide selection and all at a nice price. So far I’ve tried two roasts (Guatemala + Around the River Blend) and my husband and I are big fans! We are looking forward to trying more!

Just found Straight River Coffee at the farmers market yesterday. I picked up four sample bags to try. Excellent recommendations from the owners. This Sunday morning started with a pot of the Sumatra blend. It’s incredible! Such a rich taste, no bitterness. We’re hooked and excited...
