Mack's Meat is a true small town locker at the grocery store. The bratwurst is outstanding! Try the Asian Bbq brat.

Nice little neighborhood grocery. They have a nice selection of stuff and great meats. They have their own butcher shop that makes a great selection of stuff. Well worth the trip. Very helpful staff

Great little grocer in the middle nowhere! We were staying in Lake George for a week and needed stuff late our 1st evening and found the Laporte Grocery. They have everything you need in a relatively small space!

Has the best selection of ice cream in Minnesota. Wish there ice cream would stay open longer. They have everything you need for conveniences and their sausage and meats are well known and delicious. Plenty of parking and nicely located by the kids playground in the center of town.
