I can't tell you how many times I've passed this business without giving a second glance. I thought…read morethis was a bath and body or lotion store. Last Sunday, my best friend and I decided to stop after getting a Wetzel pretzel as it was near the stand and we were in snackoma. We were given a warm greeting by Ashley and she thoroughly walked through the different selections and also gave us a little bit of background about the company. I was pleasantly surprised by the hazelnut chocolate. I typically do not like hazelnut, but theirs is so smooth and tasty. I ended up getting one of the lemon truffles and the strawberry and cream chocolate. I'd say for the chocolate size and pricing it's about seven dollars for the size of your hand. One of the truffles was four dollars. Yes, this is on the expensive side, but it was a treat - and totally worth it. The lemon truffle was one of the best things that I've put in my mouth lately and I will definitely be back. I'm still thinking about how pleasant Ashley's customer service was.

I don't even know how to pronounce the name, haha! Literally I was starring at sheets of chocolate! Greeted and educated by Ashley on the quality of this chocolate. Oh my goshhh, I've never had any chocolate like this in my life! It's high quality, smooth, and flavorful. Just INCREDIBLE! Ashley was kind enough to share a sample which made it hard to pick what to buy because let's be real I wasn't leaving without something. I went with the classic/top seller--milk chocolate hazelnut and a mini mousse caramel truffle. Absolutely delicious! The store is clean, bright, warm, and inviting . Lots to see and honestly, hard to pick, but I see why people come here. When I visit MOA I will be making a stop here. Thank you to Ashley for making it a great first visit.

Well the chocolate they make is really amazing. 5 stars for that…read more This review is specific for the ice cream portion of the business. 3 stars for that, but weighted overall to consider the chocolate portion of the business. They don't volunteer that they have kid size, which is smaller than one scoop, even when you walk in with a two year old. I really wish they had, or given me more time to look at the menu to see for myself. One scoop is WAY too much for a kid and plenty for an adult. Maybe it's up-selling, maybe they just pounced because we were the only ones there. The ice cream is good, but oddly all of the canisters are covered so you don't get to see the ice cream, you just choose by reading the descriptions. Thirdly they have no where to sit. A tiny bench that barely fits two people by the ice cream and another bench outside. So if you have three people together, you'll have to split up to stay and enjoy it. Also if the third person tries to lean on the wrought fence outside the shop, they are going to fall. That fence is no longer anchored and will be a hazard someday very soon.

We drove all the way from Victoria, MN, through rush-hour traffic--and would gladly do it again. What truly sets Pumphouse apart is its commitment to fresh, local ingredients and incredibly creative flavors. The seasonal rhubarb ice cream was unforgettable: perfectly balanced, fresh, and unlike anything you'll find at a typical ice cream shop. The experience went beyond the ice cream itself. The staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun, making us feel less like customers and more like neighborhood regulars. We're already planning another trip back to stock up on pints before the seasonal flavors disappear.
