I have been going to the MN Nice Cream location in NE for several years now and always appreciated how they had a non dairy option as someone who is severely lactose intolerant and occasionally chooses to be wise and listen to their body and skip the dairy. 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! read more

What a wonderful addition to the area! It's fun to customize the yummy soft serve with a large list of toppings, and they also offer edible glitter for free. The raspberry soft serve was really good, not too sweet but flavorful! read more

If you're looking for frozen yogurt - this is the place! Just an fyi..no ice cream here. We ordered the twist with edible glitter! Service was great and lots of fun places to sit inside and outside. Also some great pic opportunities too. This area of downtown Stillwater has lots of options for cold treats and MN Ice Cream is a wonderful option along with Gloria's and Leo's. read more

Great location right next to Leo's and Gloria's Soft Serve - but you would be better off skipping this place and going to one of the other spots in town. If this is yogurt - it's not very good. If this is Ice Cream - ever worse. If you want to try it - you better hurry, because I don't think it will be around much longer. read more

Friendly fast staff. Star Spangled Slammer NEVER disappoints, so so good! We got 2 of those and 2 build your own for the kids and they loved also read more

MN Nice Ice Cream - Star Spangled Slammer - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

Vegans be warned. They state vegan options on the menu, but they did not have any on the menu when we arrived. We were told that they rotate flavors, but that doesn't make sense because you should have at least one vegan flavor if you are going to advertise vegan options. We drove 40 minutes on one of the first 80 degree days of the summer. Disappointed. We won't be back. read more

Great ice cream shop right off the bridge walk way over the st croix river. The lady was fast and pleasant. She handled a line quickly and efficiently. The place has hard metal bar seats which I didn't like but fit the ambiance. read more

This was a great stop after a day in Stillwater. We had a twist cone with sprinkles which did the trick for my 4 year old. My wife and I split the banana split sundae which we found spectacular. A bit more expensive than the other local options but it's worth it. read more

The ice cream isn't great. Customer service is even worse. We've been here a couple times and it's disappointing each time. You would be better off price, taste and service at Leo's or Gloria's located right next to this ice cream shop. read more

Cute colorful location. The customer service gal couldn't remember our order, maybe it was the heat, maybe the smoke in the air. Some rather limited Soft serve varieties but key lime was unique. They do off two flavors vegan. Lots of toppings to choose from including free edible glitter. Plenty of tables outside but they were all dirty. Parking was a bit of a challenge, unless you were willing to pay. read more

Can't beat the "Bang for buck" - ness of this place. I ordered a small cone with 3 toppings for 6.50 and it wasn't even that small. It was delicious. They have a great topping selection and the service was expedient. Love the decor. Would definitely recommend read more

Located in a quaint cute little town; this place has vegan options as well as egg free gluten free options. So many toppings to choose from! And the bonus, free edible glitter! Our cashier was polite and accommodating. read more

MN Nice Ice Cream - Vanilla soft serve with Oreo and brownie toppings. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

This place has been on my "to try" list for what feels like forever and I have finally made it to the Stillwater location! It did not disappoint. The entrance to the building was tucked away in some construction so it was a little awkward to get into the place but once you were in the atmosphere was so cute! We waited in line with lots of other people (always a good sign when a place is packed!), ordered our ice cream, and took a walk down by the river. It was such a wonderful little afternoon - my only complaint is that there isn't one in the south metro for me to frequent all the time!! I will be venturing up to Minneapolis to try the other location in the future. read more

Pretty rainbow gluten free cones. Multiple ice cream shops to choose from on the walk to the bridge

I have waited WAY too long to try MN Nice Cream & it did not disappoint! I went to the Stillwater location but they also have a location in NE Minneapolis. Such a cute ice cream shop with ice cream cones for chairs, a balloon wall & the location itself is right next to the Stillwater Lift Bridge so perfect to take your ice cream & sight see So many different flavors, cones and toppings to choose from as well as a specialty menu for the kid in me I mean who doesn't love a cake pop & edible glitter in their cone ~ I will be going back a lot this summer/fall! read more

I was so excited to see MNNice Cream move into Stillwater! They have so many fun options for toppings, and their cookie dough is to die for. As a bonus, all their ice creams are lactose free! They're also so sweet to pups - my dog is so accustomed to her pup cup that she cries when they're closed for the season. If there's one thing I wish were different, it'd be vegan options that are a little more tasty. The ones at the main location in Minneapolis are always so creative! But the options don't switch out a lot at Stillwater and the cake batter and coconut flavors have been a little weird texture- and taste-wise. read more

A great place for a cool treat on a hot day while walking around Stillwater. Lots of cool things that you can add to your soft serve to really spice it up including edible glitter, gummy worms, cookie dough, fruity pebbles, and many other fun toppings! They also have puppy chow and bacon as toppings for ice cream!? Yes please. If you are from a Minnesota / Wisconsin background you will also be pleased to find that they have Blue Moon flavored ice cream at this location in soft serve form. If you are not familiar with Blue Moon, it is an almond flavored treat. As an extra bonus, the Blue Moon is dairy free and made with Soy, Almond, and Coconut milks. It is delicious! A bold move to be right behind Leo's Ice Cream Shop, this place will definitely became a new anchor in Stillwater for tourists and locals alike! We will be back. read more

My friend loved her Vanilla soft serve: 5 My chocolate soft serve was less intense than McDonalds: 3 Seating, location, service: 5 Average score = 4 read more

The soft serve itself was bland and a bit watery. The cones tasted and felt stale. The toppings were fun, and it's cool that they offer different "themes" everyday of different combinations you can easily order. The cones are served in another plastic cone, I'm guessing due to the stickiness of toppings? Maybe covid? Seems wasteful to me. Right now there's only outdoor seating. You order at a window and then it's brought out to you, or you can wait inside for your order with a mask on. Some people chose to wait inside since the walls are cute and make good pictures. There is not indoor-seating. read more

This ice cream spot in downtown Stillwater was both adorable and yummy! The options were versatile in terms of size, type of dessert (ice cream, soft serve, shake, etc.), toppings, and flavors! If I were you, I would certainly give MN Nice Ice Cream a try. read more

MN Nice Ice Cream - Make your own cup (vanilla, caramel, brownie & waffle cone) with glitter - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

I thought I was going to be disappointed with boring soft serve ice cream...but this place rocks! The soft serve is good. But the main thing is they have a million toppings! They have some pretty cool cones too. I picked a green chai tea waffle cone. They have dairy-free ice cream too. Apparently, it's based on almond milk. I picked a black coconut cocoa non-dairy ice cream...topped it with fruity pebbles and edible glitter...put it all in a green waffle cone. It looked really cool and tasted great! You have to be careful when you eat the non-dairy ice cream because of the way it melts. It doesn't melt creamy style, like dairy ice cream. It melts more like water and will easily spill over the top of your cone or drip out the bottom like colored water. I got black drips all over my shorts. Oops! One other thing - they have a scratch n' sniff banana wall! Thumbs up! -Daddy Maxx Retro read more

This is such a cute store to visit in the Summer. There's a cool truck you can take instagram worthy pictures by with your decked out icecream cone. This is one of my favorite places to get ice cream, because I love all of the fun toppings such as edible sprinkles and gummy strings, toasted marshmellows..so unique and the end result is a work of art. Their flavors are pretty good too. I think my favorite was the vegan lemon raspberry. There are a couple of reasons im giving it a 3 star though compared to my 5 stars for Izzy's. #1: The ice cream melts way too fast and there's nothing protecting against it except for a small napkin. It leaks through the bottom of the cone...I like it when they put something there as a surprise and I wish it did more to prevent the leaks! #2: the lines are too long in the summer. I usually wait like 30mins to get my ice cream. You have to be very dedicated and desperate for mnicecream to get it. #3: It's expensive, and if you choose your own toppings, even if it's the same amount of toppings as the set menu items, it ends up costing more. So a more cost effective way could be to choose the menu item that has most of the things you want on it and substitute it for something else. #4: Their flavors change all the time and I sometimes crave that lemon raspberry one but can't get it. And when I go there I never know what to expect. You might get one good flavor, maybe two, or maybe none..a gamble. But follow them on instagram to see their latest flavor and their promo posts like BOGO. Anyways, it's worth to try and take friends from out of town here since the ice cream cones are so instaworthy. read more

MN Nice Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Stillwater, Minnesota

A great place for ice cream that turns into a memory making experience! Truly unique and one of a kind... from the edible glitter, the fun signature ice cream cones and flavors, the scratch and sniff wallpaper... this place will be a sensory delight to your eyes, nose and tastebuds. Fun and colorful decor, and ice cream almost to pretty to eat. And it tastes even better than it looks...even though one would think that to be impossible because the cone that is handed to you looks straight out of a food magazine. Gluten free and vegan options as well. read more

We thought we'd try this ice cream shop instead of the well established Leo's malt shop.... we shoulda just went next door to Leo's! The soft serve chocolate and the cake batter were below par. Ick! The root beer float was ok though. Total bummer as it was nice and hot and wanted something good for the kids! The atmosphere at Leo's is also better as it has tradition and history. read more

Ordered a dish of vanilla ice cream with caramel and peanut butter cups. Waited and waited, watched 5 people who ordered after me leave with ice cream. Finally mentioned that mine was forgotten. Was given a dish, not what I ordered, vanilla nice cream with a smidge of caramel and tons of jiffy, not peanut butter cups, it was disgusting! I complained to the server and cashier, neither cared. I tossed it and was out $7, glad I tipped ahead of time for horrible service ‍ Won't be back. Easier and tastier to buy a pint at Kowalski's!! read more

Updating my review to say that there have been some better vegan options lately. Still wish the basic vanilla was vegan, but the rest we tried have been delicious. read more

Interesting and tasty creations! And who doesn't like edible glitter?? Fun place, will definitely be back.

We've made trips out to Stillwater just so we can grab an ice cream. We love their flavor combos and their staff is always friendly.

This was not my favorite place to get ice cream. The ice cream was fine but the worker was very mean she made a sarcastic comment towards me that was rude and she rolled her eyes at my friend for dropping her money. Overall I would not recommend. If the cashier wasn't there it would've been a better experience. We went there on 8-2-19 and the cashier was a women. read more
