Consistently poor customer service when getting ice cream. I've never had good service here and we…read morefrequent it often. The one girl let out a very annoyed sigh tonight when we asked for a sample. Again, the ice cream is great, but that is the only reason we come back. The owner says it's because of teenagers being nervous about their first jobs, however I've had plenty of great service from teens at other establishments. It's also not just the teenagers who aren't friendly. Even a smile would go a long way.

Cozy little coffee shop in Crosby! Big kudos to them because it was delicious coffee and also had…read moresome very fun specialty menu items that made it hard to pick. I had the Carmel Butter Breve that had a nice butterscotch flavor to it. Some of the prices are a little high, but if their ingredients are made in house it would certainly be worth it; it was delicious none the less! The three young girls working were all very friendly and efficient as well. They had a fun white board "poll" where you could write your favorite summer memory which was a cute character of this small town energy

A Kava House company that DOES NOT SELL KAVA?!! That's like the international House of Pancakes not…read morehaving pancakes. LOCATION: Next to Victuals which I recommend you go to if you want a place that delivers more than expected. There's limited street parking. First come, first served. DECOR: Minimalistic and modernly clean and sleek. Mostly white with natural accents of wood and metals. DRINKS: NO KAVA do I want interested in else was there. FOOD: There was plenty of 90's era candy. Warheads, ring pops, pop rocks and sugar daddys. It was a blast from the past. STAFF: Kind, apologetic and youthful. EXPERIENCE: My partner has never had kava before and decides to stop in at this place. She's very excited about trying kava which she's heard so much about. So we walk inside and it's as quiet as a library. No music and no conversation as though everyone stopped talking when we walked in. We walked to the front counter and asked where the kava was on the menu. Then we were told how the kava house has no kava. If it weren't for the nostalgic candy and cute decor, I'd say 1 star. It's the only reason we even stopped in. That's literally false advertisement. The very kind and sweet staff told us that it wasn't even legal for them to sell kava because they were minors. So you work at a Kava House that doesn't sell kava because it employs minors or the kava house is a lie and doesn't even have kava? Either way, why would I come back? I can get candy and coffee at a candy or coffee shop.

Had a 16oz latte - was good - nice and smooth. My wife said the iced mocha was very good as well…read more Service was good too and it has an outdoor area to relax (indoor seating too with games and what not). The candy selection looked good too and they have sandwiches.

The Chocolate Ox in Nisswa is such a fun little stop, especially if you have kids. The shop is…read morepacked with candy, toys, Jellycat animals, and so many colorful things to look at that it almost feels like stepping into a candy wonderland. 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.

While paying for my food, I didn't realize all the money I had saved for taking this trip, had fallen out on their counter. I walked to fill my cup from the soda fountain and the young man who had just taken my order, walked up to me and said "excuse me ma'am, but you dropped this on the counter....handing me all my money. I couldn't believe it. I thanked him and gave him $20. God bless this young man and the Dairy Queen he works for. Also, the food was great!!

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).

I have had times where the person helping me is clearly over "City-ots" but this most recent trip was a delight. Generally good COVID procedures, though the (self described) privileged elite who stay at this resort don't feel the need for masks and I don't blame the staff for not wanting to get into it with the entitled. If you are in the area, worth checking out. Fun for a quick adventure for ice cream after lunch.
