Ice Cream & Coffee
& Shakes, Oh My!
Looking for a sweet treat or a beverage to enjoy with friends? There’s a lot to explore. Ice cream at the Dairy Freeze is a local summertime staple here… Or swing by Graffiti Corner for some fro yo or coffee! Speaking of coffee…did you know Indulge & Co added a coffee window downtown that also serves Cedar Crest Ice Cream during the summer? Or that Fairmont has a seasonal food truck called Spot on 3rd serving Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream from Madison, Wisconsin? While you’re out, make sure to grab a bag of Loxley Coffee’s locally roasted bean to enjoy when you get home!

Partnerships Brewing in Fairmont
Micro-breweries are all the rage and are popping up all over the country. Fairmont has joined the trend and now has its own local brewery, Fairmont Brewing. Embracing the area, beers such as the George Lake Pils and Sisseton Sunset are named for local lakes. Fairmont Brewing partners with local pop-up South American and Scandinavian food brand, MINGA, on meals for special events such as beer brunch and Oktoberfest. MINGA also provides beautiful and tasty charcuterie boxes on site.
Speaking of partnerships . . . Loxley Coffee partners with The Bread Box who has a pop-up shop every other weekend at their location. Specializing in sourdough bread, Bread Box also provides a variety of pastries, macarons and other baked goods.
Small Town Staple
There a certain things every small town needs: a church, a bar, a baseball diamond, and a meat market. And after you’ve picked up a growler from the local brewery, there’s nothing better than grabbing some fresh steaks or brats to go with it.
