Our Story

A family legacy continues. In 2007, Mike Ruhberg and Lesa Irhke opened the very first franchise store for Cabin Coffee Company in St. Charles, Minnesota. After 10 years of building a family of incredible staff, including their sister, Robyn, and serving their loyal customers with great coffee and quality food, they decided to open the opportunity for the next generation of business ownership.

Tanya LeJeune and her husband, Troy, had been looking for the right time and right opportunity for years for business ownership. After moving to St. Charles in 2011, their family has frequented Cabin Coffee as customers, and in 2018 Tanya joined the Cabin Coffee family as a barista.

With Tanya's background in corporate business and the service industry, conversations with Mike and Lesa quickly emerged regarding the opportunity for taking the next steps as a Cabin Coffee franchise owner. Tanya wanted to own a business that would positively impact her community, and a place she could pursue making a difference in the lives of others. A Cabin Coffee franchise fit that vision and pursuit for a business legacy of their own.

In 2019, that opportunity and dream became a reality. Along with manager, Robyn Dahl, and entire family at Cabin Coffee, Tanya, Troy, and family, are now following their dream and continuing the legacy that Mike and Lesa established in St. Charles—keeping Cabin Coffee a local favorite and community destination. Where "Just Be Happy and Have Fun" continues to make St. Charles a home.
