Did you know that, as of 2010, the obesity rate in North Dakota was 27.2%? When I first learned…read morethis fact I thought that all North Dakotans must walk with shame and an ice cream cone in each hand (to quell the pain of said shame). My expectations only came half true (there is no such thing as a North Dakotan devoid of pride nor a North Dakotan who walks for purposes other than shooting something). Moosetracks, Bunnytracks, Juneberry, Swiss Chocolate. I fell for them all! It was a summer fling for the ages.

The vibe is super fun and reminds me a lot of Central Perk from Friends. Tables and couches arranged in cozy conversational corners. We ended up staying because we liked the ambience. We each had a gelato with a topping that came in around $15 including tip. I had salted caramel and my guest had the butter brickle. Both were very tasty and we would likely come back to try some other flavors or just enjoy the vibe with some coffee. The staff was both friendly and helpful and offered samples of the gelato to help us decide.

Always stop here regularly whenever I'm in Harvey. The owner the last 20+ years, Shauna, is a rare gem; a local treasure who is friendly to everyone she meets and goes out of her way to make you feel welcomed. Not surprisingly, everyone who visits seems to know / love Shauna. So many local folks have been fortunate to have their first jobs at the T.F., and later their own kids do too. In her own way, Shauna has helped raise half the kids in this lovely small town, which helps explain why the TF is so loved here in Harvey.

The owner was happy and helpful, and I could tell that she was working her butt off! -Unlimited toppings. What?! -Unique flavors. My husband and I shared the flavor, "Big Muddy" which was chocolate overload. It was really yummy! There are lots of cool flavors, and the owner told us that she takes requests for ordering new ice cream flavors and toppings. -Free arcade games. So cool that they don't make you pay to play them! Here's what could be improved: -The space felt a little dingy. It still has cool seating and a unique feel, though, so don't let that deter you from coming here! -There were two sizes of cups sitting on the counter, but when I told the owner I wanted the small size, she said they don't sell that size. I was confused why they had that size of cup sitting out if they wouldn't sell it. Oh well! Magic City Sweets seems like the kind of place I wish existed when I was younger! It has such a cool feel that's unique to Minot, and the service couldn't be better. Go give it a try! And don't forget to try the Big Muddy flavor. (;

Smooth jazz music surrounds you as you sit on one of the four overstuffed couchs. If you're not lucky enough to snag a couch or a comfy chair, there are also half a dozen bar height tables, and 10 cushy seats at the bar. The drinks are really creative, as are the "glasses." The Tubby Taft gives a whole new meaning to the term "bathtub" gin. They don't have any food options but you can order/bring in food from either Nara Ramen or The Firepit both located above Oscar's. Service was almost instantaneous and really friendly and knowledgeable. Parking is also available in the same lot as Nara and the Firepit.
