High wheel is down the road and super kid friendly.

Be patient as there is usually a line on a hot summer day! They also have cute items for sale. It closes a little earlier then the rest of the shops, so why not have ice cream before dinner?!

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.

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.

This year, there is a lemon bar ice cream... which is incredible, peanut butter and chocolate for lessy fruity flavors, and raspberry/lemon sorbet for people with dairy limitations. The staff are always super friendly and helpful. The lines move fast, and the prices are super affordable. They do take credit cards with a 4% fee, so cash or check is preferred - totally makes sense for a smaller town. I love this place!

I had the Carmel Butter Breve that had a nice butterscotch flavor to it.

The three young girls working were all very friendly and efficient as well.

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.
