Christmas Point Wild Rice Company

This is the cutest and yummiest shop in Brainerd. The cafe' is cute and serves up some of the best coffee drinks and desserts in the area. It can be packed to limit with aging, lunching ladies on the weekend, though so beware. Do like we do, get your coffee/hot cocoa to go and have fun browsing all three level of the store. And don't forget to pick up some yummy fudge on your way out!

I have driven by this place a million times and had NO IDEA they had a little coffee/lunch counter inside until a recent Yelp search alerted me to the fact?! My husband and I had a very nice lunch here, I loved my grilled cheese and soup, plus picked up some day old peanut butter chocolate chip cookies (YUM) and some nice lattes to fortify ourselves before a Target shopping run. There is a LOT to see here aside from food and this is a great gift shopping spot. I will absolutely come back here when I am in the area next time!

Lovely spot with a lot of coffee options!Try the chicken bacon havarti panini. The pesto aioli pairs well with the crispy ciabatta bread! Sandwiches come with chips and a nice pickle. Relaxing atmosphere with seating available to the side. It is in the middle of a large retail shop, so there's plenty to look at while you wait to order.

This was an unexpectedly cute find with specialty food items and local goodies. I bought a B.E.A.R. (blackberry, elderberry, apple, red raspberry) jam and a package of wild rice to bring home.There's also a neat cafe with soups, sandwiches, wraps, salads, and a variety of coffee and tea offerings. I was excited to try the namesake wild rice soup. It was pretty bland but was pepped up with the addition of the very salty croutons. The turkey apple brie panini was on the sweeter side with a nice melding of flavors.Worth popping in for a casual lunch or perusing when in the area. Grab a slice of fudge on your way out!

Fun place to shop and the food is pretty great as well. Don't be fooled by the name though, you can't get Christmas stuff year around.

Very large gift store set up with your typical areas. Gifts for children, infants, wine lovers, pet lovers, gardeners, gourmet foods, etc. They have furniture in the lower level with quality leather and some other home decorative items. There is a lot to look at here.

Just found out they will no longer be carrying their own soup mix. Disappointing, but at least I'll never have to set foot in this crowded, unorganized and overpriced store ever again.

Friendly staff and always high quality products that you don't find everywhere. A must stop every time we are near brainerd.

How can you have "wild rice" in your name and have the nerve to serve the nastiest wild rice soup i've ever had. Seriously a FOUL taste and I LOVE wild rice soup. We were very disappointed as we have been wanting to try this place for a while but couldn't even choke down our soup. They also didn't give us spoons.

a favorite stop of ours when we're up at the lake! great shopping with an amazing selection. tons of gift-worthy items, minnesota gear, and furniture. some items are a bit pricey, but even just walking around and "window shopping" is quite fun. their food is also AMAZING - our family fave is the "up north club" with a cup of chicken wild rice soup, and some of their "buy 4 get 2 free" fudge for dessert (located near the checkout). you will not be disappointed!!
