Shoppers at Miller Hill Mall will soon have a new snack option. Auntie Anne’s, the national chain known for its hand-rolled pretzels and dipping sauces, is set to open in the food court in spring 2026.

The addition is part of an ongoing refresh at the mall, which has announced several other tenants in recent months. Cinnabon, Windsor and Perfumania are all scheduled to open this fall, bolstering the mix of retail and dining choices.

Mall officials say the openings highlight Miller Hill’s role as a regional shopping hub, drawing customers from across northern Minnesota and Wisconsin. The new food court arrivals are expected to add to the high-traffic environment that has kept national franchises interested in setting up shop in Duluth.

The likeliest play is a polite handshake extension — one year, maybe two, at something closer to $2 million per. A team-friendly, locker-room-cred deal.
