    Delicious! I had a Dulce de leche churro and vanilla ice cream Would be nice to have a combo instead of having to order them separately The dulce de leche churro was yummy I got vanilla ice cream on side, it was standard. Service is kind but you have to pay for bottled water or they send you down the hall to the water fountain Maybe they're trying a bit too hard to be European. This is Alabama lol. Water and ice should be free especially in July with an order. Stays busy. Prices are fair.

    This little novelty spot at the Summit is always SLAMMED with people- think line out the door. But don't worry because the line moves really fast. They specialize in churros and ice cream. They have a pretty extensive menu of ice cream flavors, but I'm here for the churros. Get one filled! A filled churro with Dulce de Leche is one of life's little pleasures. I've also had the Nutella filled, and it's good but very rich. The prices are good too!

    We came here on a Sunday evening. Not too late, and I thought we had waited long enough for the newness to die down, but we had not. The line was wrapped around inside and by the time we left, outside. From our pictures you can see we ordered three churros. Two were incorrect/incomplete from what we ordered, and all three were stale/cold/not fresh. I understand wanting to move customers quickly, but quality over quantity gets me back any day.

    Overall, the food was decent, but the experience definitely could have been better. We came in on a Sunday evening after shopping at the Summit. The place was PACKED. It took a long time to get through the line. After placing our order for three churros, which we got to go, we didn't see them until after they were placed in the box and handed to us. Considering the line had now made it's way out the door, we just went ahead and walked out. When we checked - two of the three were not what we ordered. While they were still good, it was disappointing that they couldn't get the order correct - it was a fairly simple order. We may come back, especially since we love churros, but we'll probably give it some time to work out the kinks / newness and hope it works out better the next time.

    My son and I stumbled up on this family owned and operated business by chance. This cute shop has taken the perfect churro and made it better......SAY WHAT! For a very worth it $5.50 per churro you can select your filing and their assortment of filings. I enjoyed a Bavarian filling and topped it with their St. Patrick's Day sprinkles. The flavors all worked very well together, still allowing the cinnamon sugar flavor of the original churro to be present. Even filled my churro still had the crispness you'd expect from this delicious Mexican pastry. You might wonder how you eat this, I simply slid it out of the sleeve is served in. The family that owns and operates this shop put a lot of pride into what they're serving and you can taste the love in their offerings. They also do serve up coffee and ice cream if that's your preference. I definitely recommend a visit to this business if you're in this area of Birmingham.

    We came in on a drizzly Saturday night. The staff was very friendly and service was quick. The churro had a variety of options that you could use for fillings and toppings-we selected a Nutella and a strawberry filling. The atmosphere was marble and similar to something like an old time train station with the black/brass detailing. The churros were a little thin but we did enjoy them overall.

    Ambiance-Small and tight area inside shop. Food-The churros are smaller than I thought they would be. Ours were not fresh. They were not even warm. Service-We were served pretty quickly and the staff was nice. They messed up our order on 2 out of the 5 churros. The lady wrote down our order on a sheet of paper. They are a new business so grace extended in this.

    We were greeted quickly and able to sample some fillings. Ended up with Bavarian filled with cookie butter topping. So good

    Original Churro with Nutella drizzle

    First time at the Churro Station! The people were super nice and even let us try anything that we had questions about for taste. I got the original churro with Nutella drizzle and my best friend got churro bites with Bavarian cream and sprinkles!

    Strawberry filled and caramel filled
    Davida B.

    Man, yes!!! I am a huge churro fan. These folks got the recipe RIGHT! My order was perfect. One strawberry filled one caramel filled with Bavarian cream, dipping sauce on the side. You can also get peanut butter or Nutella filling. They have a variety of toppings also. There are also some savory options.

    Great sweet treat spot! I was pleasantly surprised it was served warm! I got the Nutella filled and it was divine. The inside was soft and doughy and the outside was crunchy with a cinnamon sugar coating. Could've eaten 10 more

    An absolute delight!! Finally, a great place to get churros in Birmingham. I have been a fan of their since before the new shop at the Summit (when they worked out of their cart). You have to be patient with them at the new store, as they just opened and have been getting busy. The owners are very sweet and work hard to bring joy to all their customers! I hope to try all the endless combinations of churro toppings.

    I saw this business while driving in the area and decided to give it a try. I wish they had one in my area. The different churro filling and toppings are vast. The toppings offered are bacon bits,chocolate chips, m&m's, etc. The fillings are peanut butter, chocolate, etc. Every churro that I ad was delicious, and the staff is very friendly and excellent customer service. The is spacious with plenty of seating inside and outside.

    Delicious churros with a wide variety of options! If you need a unique sweet treat there are not many places that can beat it, or the price!

Unique flavors, classic flavors, the smell of fresh waffle cones inside. Big Spoon does a ton of business, as they should. The location here in Avondale is great, but not super walkable from any really good restaurants. I would love to see them open another spot on 2nd Ave. I had the strawberry tres leches in a waffle cone and it was delicious. I appreciate the care and craft that went into making sure every bit down to the bottom of the cone had ice cream in it. 10/10.

    The Sweet and the Absurd: A Birmingham Creamery's Baffling Economics…read moreTo step into Big Spoon Creamery in Birmingham is to subject oneself to a masterclass in both artisanal delight and bureaucratic absurdity. On my visits--a pilgrimage undertaken reliably every month and a half--the front-line staff have never been anything short of exemplary. They are the cheerful stewards of a deeply baffling system, executing their duties with a warmth that almost distracts you from the institutional quirks around them. I say "institutional" because the management themselves are entirely phantom. They are never seen on the floor. Perhaps this is a calculated evasion; if they were ever present, they would surely have to field a relentless, exasperated inquisition regarding the tragic and ongoing absence of their finest creation: the "Magic City." Why an ice cream parlor would willingly suppress its undisputed masterpiece remains an enduring mystery. Even if the economics of its ingredients demanded a premium surcharge, "Magic City" ought to be enshrined as an immovable staple on the menu. Instead, the menu is a restless, ever-shifting carousel. I concede that a relentless churn of novelty is a virtue to a certain type of customer, but the soul of a great neighborhood institution relies on the comforting reliability of a few anchor flavors. At Big Spoon, just as you develop an affection for a flavor, it vanishes into the ether. Then, we must examine the rewards program, an endeavor so poorly conceived it borders on the avant-garde. The mathematics are punishingly flat: one point per order, regardless of whether the patron spends a single dollar or one hundred. The rational response to such a broken incentive structure is, naturally, to weaponize the system. To extract any genuine value, the savvy customer is forced into a theatrical display of micro-transactions, paying for each scoop separately. It is a loophole that needlessly punishes the very staff who make the establishment shine, forcing them to run the register three or four times for a single family's dessert. Finally, there is the creamery's bizarre pricing taxonomy. A close study of the board reveals an accidental arbitrage opportunity: the customer is objectively better off purchasing two distinct pints of ice cream and two empty waffle cones to assemble on their own time, rather than engaging in the straightforward, intended transaction of ordering ice cream scooped directly into a cone. Whoever is pulling the levers behind the curtain at Big Spoon clearly fancies themselves a clever operator, disrupting the traditional ice cream parlor model with dynamic menus and gamified loyalty. But in their pursuit of perpetual novelty and labyrinthine economics, they have embodied the old proverb perfectly: they are entirely too clever by half.
