It's always super busy especially if it's nice out but they are speedy! If you can't decide what you want you could ask them for a sample to taste. They usually offer a sugar free option that's delicious and that's usually the one I get! If you are ever around the apple valley area make sure you stop here and take a walk around cobblestone lake and if you still have energy do some shopping at target. If you have extra time book yourself a spa service at clovr spa and have a relaxing day! When you have worked up an appetite go stop by Texas Roadhouse! Perfect summer day!

When I saw Kurb Side's adorable old fashioned/retro truck parked near Tin Fish, I had to restrain…read moremyself from screaming and jumping for joy. You're telling me that I can get a Sno Ball, like I'm used to getting only in the South, at Lake Calhoun?! Remember on Saved By the Bell when Jessie took speed and was in an aerobic video and said manically over and over, "I'm so excited!" That was me minus the drugs and the spandex. Okay, giddiness aside if I must, here's what you need to know: *two sizes, served in take-out containers. Small (think a side of rice) - $3, large (think what your last order of Kung Pao chicken came in) - $5 *a TON of flavors including Georgia peach, wedding cake, tiger's blood (yes, you read that correctly), blue bubble gum, dreamsicle *additional flavors or sweet cream will run you an additional $.50 each *they have sugarfree options, which I forgot to explore since I was just too excited, a la Jessie Spano I ordered the small king cake as this is a New Orleans-style sno ball truck, after all. It was a perfect purple sno ball with unidentifiable sweetness. I don't know what king cake is supposed to taste like, but I do know that there wasn't a tiny baby in my sno ball like there are in traditional king cakes. That would have been super creepy. It's finally (maybe, hopefully, finger-crossed) summer in Minneapolis and this should be at the tip-top of everyone's bucket list for the foreseeable future.

I purchased a $1,950 product from swaniceshavers.com, an online store owned by Crystal Fresh, and…read moreneeded to return it shortly after it arrived. I contacted them to get a return authorization number and was told that they would impose a 20% restocking fee even though I never opened the packaging that it arrived in. That's $390 to simply allow me to return the product! While Crystal Fresh is not the only company in the world to charge restocking fees, I find this type of policy to be unfair when they end up reselling the product again for full price to someone else. All this restocking fee does is upset customers. And guess what? I'm upset! I will never purchase from any Crystal Fresh company again since there are tons of other places to get the same products without old fashioned return penalties. Crystal Fresh, I hope the $390 you made off me is worth this negative review.

One to order, one to pick up. It was a warmer day so it pretty consistent w/ customers lining up. I seen that they have a strawberry soft serve, I mostly got it because it's pink ice cream, lol. I ended up getting it in a chocolate dipped cone. Ice cream was pretty good. Soft serve usually is. Just melts so fast and creates a sticky mess. Prices were the same as everywhere else but I feel like $7+ for soft serve ice cream is spendy but market price I guess. I did see a sign that they don't replace fallen ice cream which is understandable. They have a few seating options outside as well as there's a ton of city benches in the area. They also have a little play area for smaller kids which is nice. I'm not in this area much and I'm sure they close for the colder months but I'd probably check them out again if I'm out that way.

Milkjam Creamery sets the standard for what great ice cream should be. The flavors are inventive,…read morethe texture is consistently creamy, and everything tastes carefully crafted rather than gimmicky. My go-to flavors are Uncle Grandpa, Uma Thurman, and Pineapple Lychee. Uncle Grandpa is comforting and rich, Uma Thurman is smooth and indulgent without being heavy, and Pineapple Lychee is bright, tropical, and incredibly refreshing. Even if you're not usually a sorbet person, this one converts people. What really says it all is this: Milkjam is the one ice cream shop I make a point to visit every single month. I don't do that with any other ice cream place. The quality is that consistent. The shop has a fun, welcoming vibe, the staff is great with samples and recommendations, and the rotating menu keeps things exciting. If you love ice cream and live in (or are visiting) the Twin Cities, Milkjam is non-negotiable.
