The main floor is the fill your own candy bag, many wacky flavors of all kinds of candies, merch, a coffee bar, fudge/confectionary case AND ice cream! This place has it all.

I would highly recommend this spot especially if you're in the area for mountain biking (a nice after ride treat).

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.

My favorite things to get when I come here are the chocolate fudge, the mint meltaways, and the toffee! They fudge here is some of the best fudge I have ever had. And the taffy isn't too bad either! They have lots of candy to choose from, so no matter what kind of candy you like, there is something here for you. Overall a great candy store, but easy to get carried away! Can get expensive the more candy you think you need!

If you are walking down main street and you see this store you will see what I mean. Come visit Walker Minnesota and visit shops like this and many others.

We rolled in for hot chocolates with pumps of toasted marshmallow syrup dangerously good. My brother, dad, sister‑in‑law, and best friend all ran their own caffeine experiments with coffees and teas, and every single one of them walked away impressed. They've got shelves of games and reading material that make you want to stay awhile... and we did. And then there was the ice cream situation. We went up six times in ten days. Six. They close at seven, so every night turned into a post‑dinner sprint "GO, GO, GO!" which honestly helped us get the dishes done faster. Nothing motivates a family like the threat of missing ice cream. I can't say enough about the staff; from a nut allergy to ordering one scoop of ice cream they let you pick two flavors so you can try something you've never tried before.

One of Crosslake's Best-Kept Secrets!…read more If you haven't tried Mad Rabbits in Crosslake, you're missing out on one of those little hidden gems that deserves a lot more attention! The food is fresh, hearty, flavorful, and just plain GOOD. They have some great comfort-food dishes that feel homemade but still have that little something extra. I had the Jambalaya Pasta, and WOW. Absolutely delicious! Full of flavor, hearty enough to fill you up, and definitely something I would order again. Mad Rabbits sits just off the main strip near the Town Square, so it can be easy to drive right past without realizing what you're missing. In my opinion, it's one of Crosslake's best-kept secrets. The restaurant itself is also adorable. You can tell a lot of thought went into the decor, the atmosphere is inviting, and the seating is actually comfortable -- which I appreciate! Service can occasionally be a little slower, but this is a family-run business, and I'll gladly give a little grace to a local family putting out genuinely good, fresh food. I could easily see a restaurant like this thriving in a much bigger city. So if you're in Crosslake and trying to decide where to have dinner, get off the main strip and give Mad Rabbits a try. Grab a comfortable seat, order something hearty, and definitely give that Jambalaya Pasta a shot! Supporting a great local family business AND getting a delicious dinner? That's a win in my book.
