They also have Pandora jewelry and loads of Vera Bradley bags (if you're into those). In the back of the store you can get a coffee or a latte and maybe a cookie and sit at a little table by the jelly, salsa, and handmade pastas for sale. If you visit only one gift shop in the area, this should be the one.

Are we in heaven?!…read more I'm from out of town and I've been wanting to pop into Lundeen's for a while now with the expectation that it was just a cute little small town stationery shop. No big deal. It looks tiny on the outside, but the further in you go, the more this shop unfolds into a huge emporium of scintillating goodies. When I walked in, there were books. Books?! Gorgeous childrens' books, (millennial) classics I haven't seen for sale in ages (I Spy, The Rainbow Fish, Where's Waldo), there were beautiful cookbooks, chic plant books, educational books, bird books, frog books, books wrapped up in gift paper ready to be someone's surprise read (Blind Date with a Book!), and two little childrens' reading nooks up a couple of stairs at the front of the store! After the books there were games, toys, puzzles, candy, gifts. And then I realized, this place is HUGE. In the back of the store there's a full on Office Depot situation but only the good stuff, plus a print shop. Ink, paper, cardstock, accounting pads, payroll sheets, carbon paper, large poster boards, folders, pens, highlighters, calculators, clips, tacks, and knick knacks. Prismacolor pencils! The good erasers. The good pencil sharpeners. Graph paper. Transfer paper. Sketch pads. Velum! Fine point markers. Like, high end art store stuff. And then. And THEN. I looked to the side of the store and there ANOTHER opening to a jewelry store! And once you go in there, you see an entirely other part of this store that is just as big as the place you just walked out of. Oh yeah, the stationery! They've got beautiful art on single pieces or card sets, but they've got purses, wallets, decor, kitchen stuff, seasonal towels, aprons, plates, mugs, souvenirs, lip gloss, candles, hot pepper jelly, a whole aisle of Burt's Bees, more kid stuff; they even have a little room dedicated to the clearance section. I don't know a lot about this shop, but I can only assume some of this is locally made and a bunch of vendors have their stuff there? Anyway, budget a couple hours and go peruse this place. The shopping here rivals boutiques in the big city, but with all the charm of Fergus Falls.

The staff are nice and single bathroom spotless. They have bulk flavored olive oils and vinegars. They don't charge a bottle fee, and when you bring back your bottle, you save $1. The Mojito flavored balsamic vinegar and peach are good. I also like the caramelized garlic olive oil. You can sign up for the reward program and get 100 points and save $5. They also have a punch card, get 9 bottles, and 10th one is free. They have spring and summer events, but now it's early spring.

Tacky new old stock. This A Frame gift shop is stuck in a 1975 time warp. There were jellies and…read morecandy and wild rice. I personally would not recommend buying as one assumes it's outdated like everything in this store. At the entrance there is a car from the 1970's with flat tires. There are plenty of native American or do I say Indigenous people handicrafts. The new old stock is 1980 type of t shirts, magnets, alligator teeth, etc. I didn't buy anything. Nothing appealed to me. The red letters on outside on building need to be repainted badly. They sell Minnetonka Moccasin shoes but many looked outdated. There is 1 A frame building and a side room with more stuff. If you're looking for Quirky, this store fits the bill.

The ice cream itself was good, though the flavor selection was a bit smaller than we expected. We also wish they offered a smaller child-sized scoop since the standard scoops are pretty large at around $5 each. Still, the atmosphere was cheerful and memorable, and it's definitely the kind of place we'd visit again on a future trip to Nisswa.
