I sampled chocolate with peanut butter, pirates booty, strawberry and raspberry sorbet. I n didn't sample peppermint bon bon as I know what that tastes like. I got a 2 scoop cup of pirate booty which has mini m&ms in it. It was good. I then got a small raspberry sorbet with strawberry ice cream on top. The strawberry was really good. The raspberry sorbet was kinda too sweet. I rarely eat ice cream, but this was a nice treat. Plus my company gave me a gift card to SA. It is nice working for a for profit company. Never no profit again for me.

Ben Neumann has been around for about 10 years. If you love a variety of pies this is your place…read more My favorites are the thaw and serve and many have a pretzel crust or a cookie crust. Most are seasonal and I'm glad it's fruit pie time. I recently got the Margarita pie. Two of us go through it in 3 days. Nothing better to do than eat pie all weekend, especially these. My other favorite is the tiger striped chocolate cream. He does savory and also hand pies if you want to sample or eat it on the spot. He started a variety of ice creams, too. All your ordering is on line then you arrange a pick up time. So get on the list. He has set up his garage for all the sales. If you ever want a pie in your face, better hope it's from here.

However, at this location I learned from the lovely and helpful server that even their dairy soft serve is LACTOSE FREE!! I had no idea and was so happy I switched my order from the dairy free to the dairy-full. The soft serve was delicious and I absolutely love their peanut butter sauce, I highly recommend. My favorite part about MN Nice Cream is how many options they have for toppings as well, and how affordable it can be to get a super decked out ambiance. The store is very clean and modern inside, and had a cool vibe, but we decided to sit outside and enjoy a beautiful day on the bench right outside. Now that I know their dairy is lactose free, this is my favorite ice cream shop!

There are plenty of signs, as this place is kind of tucked away. You will park on the street, but given the fact that this is a small town, parking is not an issue. Walk down and order at the window. They take cash and cards. There are so many options to choose from! From what I could tell, there was one dairy free option (raspberry lemon sorbet, very refreshing!) and they did have gluten free cones as a choice as well. There are a few areas for seating, but I would personally recommend taking a short trail to the left down to the river! There are a few little trails and a beautiful little creek! Very peaceful! All of the ice cream was delicious and the girls serving were super sweet! Note: This city has a siren (sounds like the severe weather siren) that goes off everyday at noon. They also use it to call for firefighters, since there is very little to no cell service in the area! Scared the heck out of us hahaha! Definitely worth going to check out!!

You can order inside or come up to the window on three outside and order. I opted to check out the inside of the shop. I ordered 1 scoop of the caramel collision in a cup. It was sooooo delish that I'll definitely be back. It tasted like a rolo and had even mini rolos inside the ice cream. YUM! I can't wait to come back to try other flavors. Another cool feature at this shop is that every ice cream flavor is noted if it has gluten and/or nuts which is helpful for those with allergies.

It did not disappoint! You can either go inside the house or order from the outside window, we stayed outside and loved it. There are plenty of places to sit and relax, and the whole setup feels like you're hanging out in someone's backyard. Super cute and laid-back, with extras like cornhole and photo areas that make it even more fun. There were so many options to choose from, but we landed on: 2 root beer floats, Ice cream nachos with cookie dough and caramel collision (so good!), 1 scoop of playdough ice cream. Everything was tasty, and the staff was friendly and patient while we made our picks. It was the perfect treat after a sunny day. The only downside and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was that we had a coupon but weren't allowed to use it or even apply the value toward our purchase. A little disappointing, especially since it was our first visit. That said, Mabel's has so much charm, and I'd love to come back to try the coffee next time. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

Overall they had a decent selection of flavors to choose from. They have plenty of seating inside as well as some picnic tables outside. They have some candy and sodas for sale as well. Generally they have a sweet treat from everyone. There wasn't too much interaction with staff outside of ordering but everyone seemed nice enough. Parking is easy as it's in a smaller strip mall.

So glad I got the chance to stop by before the season ends. They have a calendar with the flavors of the day and when we went it was raspberry dole & marshmallow soft serve. They had a few seasonal options made up. I got the s'mores sundae, my friends got the apple pie sundae & a rice crispy cone. I know marshmallows don't taste like much but in the s'mores sundae it was pretty bland. Mostly tasted the chocolate syrup. I do want to revisit next summer and check out the hoagies or subs as well. Ice cream was very reasonably priced. They had some street parking and a few spots in the parking lot around back.
