We prove that in Minkowski spaces, a harmonic function does not necessarily satisfy the mean value formula. Conversely, we also show that a function satisfying the mean value formula is not necessarily a harmonic function. Finally, we conclude that in a Minkowski space, if all harmonic functions have the mean value property or any function satisfying the mean value formula must be a harmonic function, then the Minkowski space is Euclidean.
