This is definitely a classic spot in Sylvan Lake and one of those places you just always plan to…read morehit whenever you go to the lake. Who doesn't crave a cold ice cream after a hot day at the water?! Their variety of ice creams is fantastic, even seeing lactose free options. Everything from Maple Walnut, sherbets, bubblegum and pistachio. This trip we ordered a baby size ($3.60) chocolate mint (classic and good) and rocket fuel (similar to bubblegum in taste but maybe a bit more grape tasting); they were just the right size for the kids. And we also ordered single scoops ($5.15) of the wild spicy chocolate and churro (this was my top fav that we ordered, it was the hardest/coldest one so it didn't melt quite as fast either, but the Flavor was super unique and I love that spicy hit you get) and the pineapple sherbet( very refreshing and light, perfect for a hot summer day). The ice cream was really soft and seemed to melt extremely fast, wishing it was a bit colder/harder. But after knowing that I recommend you find a seat and eat it right after you order it. Service was fast, we didn't have to wait long to order and the staff were good about double checking flavor choices. Handing us each cone as they scooped it. These places also sell a variety of floating devices for some good lake time and Sylvan Lake memorabilia. Parking in Sylvan Lake is all pretty much payment required unless you park a few blocks away.

When it comes to chocolate, Purdy's is one of the best. The staff are very knowledgeable about the…read moreproduct. Though not one of the larger locations, this store is always well stocked. Staff are always very helpful and friendly.

Lemon with homemade curd and the cookies and cream were delightful. The icing tasted like real sugar and butter and not processed oils! The classic chocolate and earl grey citrus were okay. Moist enough, but lacking a richness of flavour. There was not enough tea flavour to make the earl grey cupcake distinct. In general the owner seemed nice, cupcakes were beautiful, some of the flavours were amazing. I would go again.

A bit pricey on a kids single scoop and to top it off the cone was stale. Customer service was very…read morenice though

We came by at 5:55 pm / 17:55 and they were closing in 5 minutes! We got a lemon cannoli and lemon…read moresorbet. The cannoli has a really creamy center and a light lemon flavor - outstanding. The lemon sorbet had a much stronger and sweeter lemon flavor and was - outstanding. Add that to they gave me a free cup of coffee because it was end of the day and this place was clearly 5 stars. My wife said if we lived nearby this would be a place we would become regulars.

And it was very delicious an not overly sweet as you would expect. A local I met highly recommended the ginger snap cookie. And it hit the spot. It was so soft chewy and flavourful. A must try for just $3! They have a little boutique and kids play area inside. Which is nice to pass the time here if you want.

Best Pie EVER! (and you can add any flavour of McKay's Ice cream)…read more Open all year round most days till 9pm. I need to say this because for ages I thought it was only a summer time place. Cone Castle is close to Gaetz Ave/Taylor Drive in Red Deer and just a few blocks from popular park Bower Ponds, but just 10 metres from the main road so many people do not know it is there. What a shame! This charming little cafe has some of the freshest most hearty food I've ever eaten in any city. Thick full grain bread for sandwiches, pies like your grandma used to make - from scratch including pastry, home made soup and chile... and still ice cream all year. A small place with 1950s diner decor and some upcycled benches. Plenty of parking right in front, no line ups or noise. Great for a romantic date, a treat for the kids, or warming up after a walk or skate at Bower Ponds. Highly recommended and worth the 10 min detour off Gasoline Alley - easy to get back up to 67th St or 32St and to QE2. Owned by a very hard-working lady and I am proud to support her business.
