    We've had good experiences here in the past and are not ones to leave reviews but our experience…read moretoday was unacceptable. Ordered specialty drinks outside after 3 p.m. Inside was closed so only outside menu was available. Two of our drinks were not as pictured on the board outside (a main ingredient was missing). We approached staff who stated only "sorry we are out of that." We planned to sit outside but there are only 4 chairs (party of 4) and one was dirty so we left to eat elsewhere in town. It was closing time for this business. The two drinks that were incorrect were VERY sour. I ate part of mine ($8 ea) but did not finish and we went to another local business and ordered a different drink for my spouse (tossed both of these in the trash) as she stated Her's was also too sour (and she typically likes sour). We decided to contact the business via social to request a refund. The owner did not take responsibility, blamed us and made false accusations. They stated we were refunded but given the name calling they engaged in and unusual nature of the message we received we told them it appears they must have confused us with another customer so I'm unsure if we were actually refunded. I let them know this and I stated they need to apologize and they then blocked us. We would never act inappropriate in any way. To imply so is insulting. The experience ruined our day. We will never again frequent this business.

    First off, I'm a tourist to Washburn. Not a loud-mouth "I want everything NOW" tourist, but I…read moreappreciate the hometown vibe and welcoming atmosphere here. Yes, we had to wait since the ice cream treats were made by hand and there was a line of kids & families waiting at the window. I'm an adult and we can wait our turn. It was a treat to try their special of the day (in honor of the Superior Vistas Bicycle Ride) of Ice Cream Nachos! Glad we decided to split one-it was too much for one person!

    We stopped in here to get a dog bone for my pup and had a wonderful intereaction with the employee…read morebehind the counter. I could assume it's the owner, but unsure. We talked about dogs and their habits and his dog loving these bones (which he was right, mine loved it too). The inside was BEAUTIFUL, we popped in on a whim, it smelled amazing and they had a huuge variety of meats. Im really looking forward to stopping by again!

    A week or two ago, after a long day at work, I wondered into old world meats. I always liked the…read moreplace but hadn't been there for a long time. I was instantly greeted and asked what I was looking for. It was right about then that my eyes adjusted from the bright outdoors light to the inside light. I realized they were clearly not open for business; the door was just unlocked and there were a few people working inside. I felt a little silly. I apologized and started heading for the exit. A man (I assume the owner) engaged me in conversation and told me that they had closed for a few months during the dead of winter but would be opening in the near future. We had a short, conversation about the meat business, how they had installed a new smoker out back, and other small talk. He then went and got the meat I was looking for out of the freezer and sold it to me despite being closed. It was not an expensive order by any means. Probably hardly worth the time it took him to find it. It's experiences like this that make you want to go out of your way to give a place your business.
