Aquatic Pets, as the name might imply, primarily sells fish, with a handful of lizards and the like available as well (plus the occasional cat wandering around). The woman who runs the store is extremely helpful, and is happy to help diagnose fish problems as well as offer advice on what fish to buy, particularly ones that will stay in the same aquarium together without causing each other problems. The prices are reasonable, and there is a variety of pet supplies available as well. A great selection for such a small store, I would recommend this to anyone looking for fish.

To be honest, it confuses me that Three Pines Gift Shop has stayed afloat as long as it has – mainly due to its location on Highway 3 (rather than downtown). However, it does provide a selection of more ‘country’ or ‘nature’ themed trinkets and must have found its market in Northfield. Prices are reasonable and merchandise is ‘cute’ and often ‘woodsy’ (hence the name).

Paper Petalum seems to be marketing to an older crowd, I’d say middle-aged to retired women. Considering their clientele their merchandise is appropriately picked, very ‘cute’ and very reasonably priced. …and they are right next door to an ice cream shop, so if you don’t find anything while you’re there, you can just hop next door and indulge.

The food and service at this restaurant are very good. However, I usually only frequent the place for lunches. The bar crowd gets a little rambunctious, not exactly the place for a family meal.
PROS: Good food, good service
CONS: drunks are annoying

Northfield Transit is fantastic for a variety of reasons, the main one being that it is free. At least from Carleton I know it is free, I think it is in the realm of dirt cheap for Northfield residents. You just call them up and say when you need to get picked up, and they come get you and take you anywhere in Northfield. It is a boon to us poor college students without cars. The only problem is that their hours are somewhat limited, so it can take some careful planning to make sure that you are done with whatever you were doing and ready to be picked up before they close up for the day.

James Gang Coffeehouse has the best coffee makers in town. If you drink coffee, you know that the cup is only as good as the person making it for you, and the James Gang has people who really know what they are doing. They really go the extra step to make sure you've got the service you want and the exact cup of coffee you want. They all seem very knowledgable!!

I've enjoyed several meals at Froggy's, and have been happy every time. They offer a nice variety of choices, that there is something for everyone. The food is always tasty, the portions are generous, and the service is great. I highly recommend Froggy's!

This bike shop has helped us very much with our bikes over the years. We bring them in when there is something we just can't fix ourselves, and they are always able to repair it for us. On the occasions that they were not repairable, they were very helpful in finding us new bikes to replace the old ones.

Anna’s Closet is a nice store providing women’s clothing, but much like Kids on Division (a neighboring clothing store) the selection is limited and prices are somewhat high. Again, if you’re one of those that gets a kick out of supporting small town business, then this store is one of your only locations (along with the Rare Pair) to purchase women’s clothing.
