I got a dipped cotton candy cone w/ vanilla ice cream. It was hot & humid the day we went. As soon as I broke the cotton candy shell the ice cream was melting like crazy and became a mess so I unfortunately had to throw it away after only a few bites. Prices were decent & the line was long but moved pretty fast. If I'm ever in the area again I would go back.

It's a little hard to spot because the sign doesn't stand out and it's tucked between buildings. You order at the counter and they will bring your food to you. I love the idea the owner has about bringing fresh locally farmed ingredients to the menu. The menu is simple and it was perfect for lunch. We tried the tomato basil soup, smoked turkey sandwich and chicken salad sandwich. Everything tasted so good! Just a heads up, they aren't huge sandwiches but it was plenty for me.

Let's describe the restaurant - a french restaurant "out of place" in Alexandria Minnesota. So they…read moreserve sandwiches at lunch and dinner as a necessary way to provide interest in the restaurant. But - they have a very interesting french style dinner menu as well. Intriguing. We were traveling and our anniversary was while we were in Alexandria. We wanted something special, and a french dinner seemed cool. But wait. They had a "chef's table" as well. Not an everyday thing, and not inexpensive, but - a chef's table in Alexandria Minnesota? We were totally there. A five course meal, wines accompanying, and it was totally delightful. We often blog our travels, and we wrote pages about this meal. Kudos to Matthew and Amber!

Cute little candy and ice cream shop in downtown battle lake…read more Open concept with tables of pick your own candy that they sell by the pound. They have a bunch of ice cream flavors that you can get in either a dish or a cone. They also make their own fudge. Which is pretty good. The ice cream is good and at a reasonable price. The candy is not anything g unique and seems a little overpriced for what it is. Overall, the kids love going to the candy store and it's a highlight of their week so we go. Personally I would go for the ice cream and skip the candy.

It is right on the main road through town, you cant miss it. We parked out front and there is outdoor seating under the overhang of the building. You step inside and there is tables and seating but the service counter is set in an "L" shape. Malt shoppe vibes as you start at the one end of the counter and start to drool over all the options. Multiple people behind the ice cream counter. We asked opions and were even able to try a couple flavors. Our group of 6 adults and 2 kids was quickly and happily addressed. Everyone got everything they wanted. Most got the waffle cones. They even split a single scoops worth of ice cream into 2 flavors for me. You round the counter and pay. There are hot meal options on the menu. There is take out or order in. There is a lot going on in this little place. We sat outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Worth the stop, worth the money, worth the smiles.
