It has been quite a while since I've been here. I made a point of having us stop by on Sunday. It…read morewas hot, and I wanted ice cream. I also didn't want to go to DQ for soft serve. We got a cup of ice cream. He got Cappuccino Break, and I got strawberry. Strawberry is my favorite ice cream flavor. If you like coffee and chocolate, then you'd enjoy the CB. My friend really enjoyed it. It was too chocolatey for me. I do not like chocolate, so it stands to reason why I'd not love it. The strawberry ice cream made me think of when we'd make ice cream at home when we were children. It was hard work, yet always worth it. There was a great balance of strawberries to creaminess. The service was quick and friendly, and I'm glad that we stopped by. Will probably go again on Saturday, as we'll be back in the area. My son loved their Superman ice cream, so we'll see if he still wants to eat is all these years later. If you're in the area, stop by. You, your taste buds, and your tummy, will be glad that you did.

Pumphouse Creamery is a hidden gem and absolutely worth the trip. Tucked into a Minneapolis…read moreneighborhood, this cozy little shop serves some of the richest, most flavorful ice cream we've had anywhere. We drove all the way from Victoria, MN, through rush-hour traffic--and would gladly do it again. What truly sets Pumphouse apart is its commitment to fresh, local ingredients and incredibly creative flavors. The seasonal rhubarb ice cream was unforgettable: perfectly balanced, fresh, and unlike anything you'll find at a typical ice cream shop. The experience went beyond the ice cream itself. The staff was welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun, making us feel less like customers and more like neighborhood regulars. We're already planning another trip back to stock up on pints before the seasonal flavors disappear.

Pump House Creamery is such a cozy little ice cream shop. The inside seating is limited, but the…read moreservice is quick and friendly. They make truly amazing ice cream using local milk and high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the richness in every flavor. The rotating menu keeps things exciting, but they always keep a few fan favorites. The flights are one of my favorite things to get. They're mini scoops, which makes it so fun to try different flavors without committing to just one. My top picks are the caramelized white chocolate, the sea salt caramel pecan, and the salted honey. All three are incredible. You can also grab pints to go, and the prices are super reasonable. A five-scoop flight for $6 is such a steal. Pump House is always worth the stop, and easily one of the best ice cream shops in the Twin Cities.

I discovered this place back in July and it's been my go to spot for a sweet treat! They change…read moretheir flavors pretty much everyday from the last time I asked the employees! A variety of good flavors and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Super cute spot!

Do you remember Sonny? I do. 25 years or so ago, I used to bring my anxious out of town family…read morehere, and my anxious in-laws, and my in-laws' anxious in-laws. Sonny was always there, and always made everything better. I don't remember how we said "the vibes are good" in the 1900s, but the vibes were so very good at the turn of the last century. I moved out of the neighborhood, but still tried to get back as often as possible. I am so very glad Sonny's is up and running. The Ice Cream seems less ice cream like than it used to, and more gelato like. That's fine, but it's noticeable. The prices are a little higher than comparable places, but that's ok too. But the vibes are just off.

Sebastian Joe's was the perfect stop for an ice cream break on a summer afternoon!…read more I stopped in on a Monday afternoon and loved that I was able to sample as many flavors as I wanted before making the very important decision of what to order. After a few samples, I landed on the coconut ice cream, and I was so happy with my choice! The ice cream has actual coconut shavings mixed throughout, and as someone who LOVES texture in my ice cream, the coconut-to-ice-cream ratio was perfect. You get plenty of coconut in every bite without it being overwhelming. I ordered one scoop, which honestly felt more like two, and had it in a chocolate-dipped cone covered in almonds. SO good! Between the creamy coconut ice cream, coconut shavings, chocolate, and crunch from the almonds, there was a little bit of everything going on. There's also a great outdoor patio with plenty of seating, which made it the perfect place to sit outside and enjoy my cone on a summer afternoon. Generous portions, tons of flavors to sample, and a great patio--I'd absolutely come back to Sebastian Joe's and work my way through more of the flavors!

The flavor selection ("periodic table") is always kind of limited but it's a small location with not that many spots for flavors. I got the basil ice cream, which had that flavor note that you only ever get with fresh-from-the-garden basil. The location is also really good as it's walking distance from my family's place and the 50th and France area is pleasant to take a stroll around with your ice cream.

If you walk from the parking ramp, down to Bellecour Cafe and look straight across the street, you will see this place! The vibes in here are honestly lacking and the only reason I dropped a star. There is very little seating, so expect to take your ice cream to go. In the summer, that's not a problem as there is ample seating outside! But during the cooler months, there is only one table and a couple of small benches. Everything here is also white and with a name like "sweet science" I was expecting more "science stuff" The staff here was absolutely lovely!! Very polite and super friendly! You are allowed to try samples and these gals seemed to be having fun with their job! Down to business: The ice cream was DELICIOUS! I am lactose intolerant, so having some vegan (dairy free) options was great! It looks like they use cashew milk for most of those bases. I hate cashews but this didn't taste like cashews at all! I got the vanilla chocolate chip and it was creamy, perfect vanilla and the chocolate chips added a very nice texture! Would highly recommend!! My boyfriend got a mint ice cream with cookie dough pieces and a marshmallow fluff that they torched! Very good! He was extremely impressed! I would absolutely recommend this place!

They have a pretty small parking lot. There's street parking but it's a bit of a walk especially if the weather isn't nice.

Pork belly sticky bun, we asked about the dish but due to dietary restrictions unable to eat pork & staff were immediately ready to accommodate and it was an amazing experience of inclusivity. So off- the menu we had a Chicken belly sticky bun tacos anddddd as you would expect another 10/10 dish. For dessert tres leche super yummy . Overall, great food and incredibly thoughtful service.

Why we keep coming back? But once again we thought, "Hey let's try the Malt Shop again."…read more Gone are the ordering from the table and being seated. I'm ok with this, but it does move the Malt Shop to a lower level right off the bat. So we ordered, paid, sat and waited. The place didn't have any background music. Long gone is the piano and some local playing for you. But not even speakers with music? Because of this it was overly quiet and you could hear every conversation in the room. The couple that were sitting next to us left. Their plates were still there when we left 20 minutes later. Food arrived. Fries were cold. Cheese burger was cold and mostly tasteless. My daughter's grilled cheese was the only thing not cold. And the waiter didn't take the plates from the next table. Malts arrived about half way through the meal. Good malts this time. Waiter again didn't take the dirty trays next to us. I doubt we will go again. But, who knows?

The…read morefirst thing I noticed was the floor was really gross, definitely haven't been mopped in a minute. Then the ice cream display/coolers looked a bit dirty as well and had a bit of condensation leaking inside over the ice cream. These things turned my mom off from trying anything. I decided to still give it a try. I got the Strawberry cheesecake ice cream in a sugar cone. It was a miss. Was expecting more of a strawberry flavor to be present and it wasn't. Honestly can't explain what it tasted like but wasn't my favorite. They do give a decent amount of ice cream for the price. They have parking around the back shared with caribou. No seating inside but a table outside and a few over at caribou outside. They also told us about the time President Obama visited and what her ordered so that was cool. Staff were pretty nice but immediately disappeared to the back after handing over our order.
