Reviews for Fletcher's Ice Cream & Cafe in Minneapolis, MN

This one's a doozy so let's break it down into three categories: The Good, The Bad, and The Funky. The Good: - You're... supporting a small, local, LGBTQ-owned business. It's so important for us to uplift and support community spaces like these. -The coffee service is amazing & the cinnamon rolls are to die for. - Everyone who works there is super friendly, chatty, andthey seem to enjoy their work (good sign). - The atmosphere and interior design is on-point. They really embrace the rustic feelof the building. - They support their community by selling art from a local artist and collaborating with local bakeries anddistilleries. - They offer a fair selection of vegan and vegetarian food as well. The Bad: - It's pretty expensive. Their menudoes explain the 15% service charge but it's always a bummer to order what you think is two $6 ice cream cones and your endtotal, before tip, is $17. They say gratuity is not required, but we all know food service workers don't get paid enough. - Theice cream is good... but not worth the price.

My friends and I have ordered soup from here and it's always inconsistently cold, lukewarm, or hasundercooked elements. Definitely avoid the soup unless they start putting it in the warmers (keep an eye out). The Funky: -Nobody who works there seems to know what's going on or at least taught the same things. Like I said, everyone is s Read more

Best cinnamon rolls ON THE PLANET! Plus unique and delicious ice cream flavors, savory sammies and other treats.

Unique one of a kind flavors with wide selection. Vegan options as well. We had the sweet cream and triple chocolate (vegan) and... they were both delicious. Read more

Delicious ice cream, unique flavors-I got flix and chill (buttered popcorn flavor with black lava sea salt on top) and cinnamon... pop tart(tasted just like it) and my daughter got horchata (right on). There's a cool cow to take photos with, great employeesand service. Would love to come back with the pups sometime, they have pup cups and bones for sale. Fresh made waffle cones,I got the chocolate dipped with sprinkles, yum! I can't wait to come back and try the waffle with pulled pork and cole slaw ontop. Read more
