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.

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.

We rolled in for hot chocolates with pumps of toasted marshmallow syrup dangerously good. My brother, dad, sister‑in‑law, and best friend all ran their own caffeine experiments with coffees and teas, and every single one of them walked away impressed. They've got shelves of games and reading material that make you want to stay awhile... and we did. And then there was the ice cream situation. We went up six times in ten days. Six. They close at seven, so every night turned into a post‑dinner sprint "GO, GO, GO!" which honestly helped us get the dishes done faster. Nothing motivates a family like the threat of missing ice cream. I can't say enough about the staff; from a nut allergy to ordering one scoop of ice cream they let you pick two flavors so you can try something you've never tried before. If you haven't been here before, create a new Up North tradition tell them KT sent you ;)

The food is always good quality and the ice cream is delicious! I highly recommend their onion rings. If you're looking for a good cheese pull be sure to get the mozzarella sticks.

Sorry, Happy 's, I was willing to go to bat for you all day long, but this was upsetting me the more I thought about it. Not OK. I don't mind paying $5.91 for onion rings if I get a substantial amount of product, but 10 rings? Most likely won't buy the onion rings anymore since the cost is way out of line now.
