This was a surprising spot- has a pretty "take-out" vibe but decent food and plentiful. read more

Was so excited to find this Indian ice cream shop! They had all different kinds of flavors and also serve food! We got the Classic cloud, which was a very creamy, milky vanilla flavor, and the mango magic, made with Alphonso mango and milk. If you want, you can grab a stamp card to earn points towards a free ice cream! Although it's more of a grab and go type of place, they also had a few seating areas so you can eat there. The worker was very friendly and helped us try a few flavors to narrow down our choice! read more

Loved being greeted when we walked in, this cute little shop has awesome unique flavors of ice cream and Indian food to-go. We took the kids here on the last day of summer break and were not disappointed. The associate who helped us was friendly, smiled a lot and let us try many flavors before getting us our cups of deliciousness. Will definitely be back! Thank you read more

Visiting from Austin, TX, I was delighted that my hosts recommended this as the best Indian food around. I was astonished that they also offer dozens (!) of flavors of - ice cream even with takeout. Servings large enough for leftovers and eco-friendly containers. read more

This unassuming place is located in a little strip mall, right down the way from the Indian grocery store that partners with Saffron Scoops, Turmeric. They are still working on the decor, I think, because it looked pretty barren in there so far. We checked out the menus and ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and Palak Paneer lunch boxes. There was complimentary chai tea while we waited, standing at the tall tables because there's no seating. After about fifteen minutes, our bag came out with our two meals and plastic utensils. We opted to eat standing at the table, and the meals were delicious! They include roti, our selected main meals, rice, a massive samosa and a gulab jamun for dessert. Everything was piping hot and perfectly seasoned, although our medium heat request seemed pretty mild. We were too full to go back for the ice cream, but I'm planning on checking that out this weekend! While I wish there was seating, especially since they have a large sunny patio, standing and eating isn't too big of a deal when the food is so delicious and the prices are a steal! read more

When you walk in, you're going to think you're in an ice cream shop. We tried ten different mind-blowing Indian ice cream flavors tonight! Tropical fruits like sapote and cherimoya; spices like cardamom, fennel seed, and saffron; nuts like cashew, almond, and pistachio. But, order some really great Indian food, too! Try the paneer 65 appetizer, goat biryani, or the puri street foods. I've never seen these dishes in FC. Very clean, friendly service. It's mostly a takeout place. read more

I was looking for a place to stop by to grab a drink and maybe a small bite to eat before I went to a medical appointment. I wanted to try anything but sbux (usually seems the most convenient/accesible in that area) so I was happy I followed the inclination to drive past sbux to see the colorful storefront SAFFRON sign. it was a great choice to stop by! I was able to drop in, and within 5 minutes leave with yummy hot chai and two veggie samosas. The best type of "fast food"! Yummy, flavorful- spice and seasoning were satisfying. Friendly staff. No seating, but there were some taller tables. If I wanted to eat there, I wouldn't mind standing. However, if you're looking to dine in, this is not an ideal spot for that. Take out/ice cream/quick bites - Although not a sit down/dine in atmosphere, the street/quick food vibe is on point. And delicious! clean food service area. Soft pastel interior decor. Parking was easy. We'll visit again to try out more of the menu - and ice cream :). read more

This place is too cute with a very kind and patient staff. My daughters and I tasted several ice cream flavors and settled on cardamom, plum, and Alphonse mango. Everything was tasty and the portions are good. I just wish the curry included rice with the dish. But overall, great! read more

One visit and I am a customer for life! The unique ice cream flavors were what my husband and I came in for but then got excited to see other menu items including indian street food and chat samosas - something I have only found in Estes Park previously. See their online menu for which menu items are offered each day. The young lady behind the ice cream counter was very friendly and hospitable. She offered us samples before we made our final decision. My husband went classic with vanilla and butterscotch and I chose rose, vermicelli and basil seed along with saffron and pistachio. They were creamy and delicious! It is going to be pretty dangerous knowing this little gem is here. read more

Chicken lollipops good. Chicken tikka masala not good. Like at all. The bread was so tough like stale tasting. Instant stomach ache after eating read more

Different and yummy. Will come again! I need more characters to post to here it is even though nothing more to say.

Absolutely love this hidden gem in Fort Collins! Came here after shopping in their grocery store, Turmeric, next door. Took home some paneer butter masala and malai kulfi ice cream. The paneer was excellent - rich, flavorful, and creamy. The ice cream is also very well-made, and I love the wide assortment of flavors. Most importantly, the service was excellent. The woman working there urged us to try as many flavors as we wanted and was kind and efficient. Can't wait to come back! read more

The Indian food was very good but they only have picnic tables outside for eating. It is mainly take out. The ice cream flavors are very unique and they encouraged us to try many. read more

This place was a great find. A totally different world of flavors from what we've seen. The service was wonderful. My kids tried a lot of different flavors and liked them all. I wish the decor was a little more considered but all in all it was a great experience. read more

This fairly quick service indian food is as good as any sit down indian restaurant you can go to quality wise. As for service, the young man working the register was patient in answering all menu questions and providing samples of lots of the unique ice cream flavors. My new favorite spot in all of FoCo! read more

The lamb biryani was very flavorful. I added 2 of the extra brown sauces and 3 yogurts, which made it very delicious. My wife had Behl Puri. She really liked the flavors and would order it again. Pricing was moderate. Everything comes in to-go containers with plastic silverware. read more

This review is ONLY about Saffron Scoops ice cream. We loved the ice cream! They have very creative, "indian" flavors. We had Black plum, Rosewater, Saffron, and Metha Paan flavors. I especially liked the rosewater flavor and the Metha Paan. The Metha Paan tasted like the paan I remember and was refreshing! read more

The lighting was harsh, and so was the icecream. They also wouldn't let us get just one scoop. So we're going to Cold Stone.

I ordered the chicken tika masala and garlic naan. The sauce was tasty, but the chicken was overcooked and chewy. The naan was also overcooked and crunchy. read more

Hands down best Indian food I've had in a LONG TIME! Authentic, locally owned, and a very pleasant atmosphere with great service overall. This is our official new Indian food restaurants and likely our go-to "oops, what are we going to do for dinner" place! read more

If you've never heard of Indian ice cream give this place a try. While they have typical flavors like chocolate and vanilla there are a ton of flavors to try and in general the tastes are complex, like spices and nuts. By comparison I think typical American ice cream flavors are all just different types of sweet. I had the malai kulfi ice cream which is cardamom flavored. Pair it with a side of chai tea for a delightful treat. I guess the ice cream is made from A2 milk and there's maybe a different process for making the cream but in any case it translates to a really nice texture read more

The ice cream here is so amazing it's hard to describe. The flavors are so exotic, and made with real fruits, nuts, and spices. I was buying ice cream for my family and I was afraid I wouldn't remember the flavors I ordered, so she wrote them out for me on the lids. But it didn't matter because every flavor was exquisite! I often have a hard time finding food at restaurants that's tasty and nutritious enough to be attractive to me, so I'm actually stunned to have found this treasure of a shop. There's no indoor seating right now but that won't stop me from going there every time I need a treat. read more

Interesting ice cream flavors, Indian snacks that aren't available elsewhere in town (Bhel puri!). Servers are very friendly. Only downside at this point is no chairs available in the store itself read more

Got take out and rice wasn't included. They said if you want rice it's $4 more. WTF? I order curry and rice isn't included? You all are high. Plus a scoop of ice cream for $5? There's no way this place should be charging as much as they are and not giving excellent portions. Ever been to Taj? There's a reason they've been in business for 20+ years. Never again. read more

Awesome food! We enjoyed our visit. Will come back again for sure. Also, a very good location.

great lunch! i had the butter chicken and it came w rice and a dessert as well. I haven't tried the ice creams yet but i will next time. i do wish there was seating inside or on the patio, but otherwise great experience read more

So yummy! The outside and inside are a bit barrenar, but definitely recommend stopping in. I've tried three of their ice cream flavors and the aloo tiki chaat and loved all of it! Super unique and special. read more

Delicious new restaurant in Fort Collins serving wonderful Indian street food with a rotating menu, along with incredible and unique ice cream flavors! Every single dish we had was wonderful, from the street food items of the day, to the paneer biryani, to the last bite of ice cream. They let us try every flavor and each was more amazing than the last. Wound up getting Chai Biscuit, Coconut and Saffron Pistachio, which were all as incredible as they sound. Complementary chai while you wait, very friendly staff, delicious food, affordable prices, highly recommended and we will be going there quite often. Welcome to Fort Collins Saffron Scoops N Bites! read more

I am SO THRILLED that this place just opened! I just stopped in for ice cream with my family. We each got a different flavor and all four flavors were AMAZING. The mango tasted like biting into the juiciest, ripest mango you could ever imagine. They have so many flavors I have never seen or tried before. If you love trying new flavors, this place is for you. If you like to keep it safe, their chocolate is lovely. They also have food for take out that I look forward to trying. The people working there are super friendly as well. We will be back over and over again this summer. read more

Ice cream is delicious! We also ordered food (naan, samosas, and the kofta biryani) to take home. All of it was delicious! Service was quick and friendly, Hopefully they put more tables and chairs in there-would have been nice to sit and eat. There were 2 tables to stand and eat at. Will be back to try more! read more

So very yummy, everything was great! Please support this new place, you won't be disappointed!!

My new go to for Indian. I love that they have specials on the weekends so I can try new things. Also, the ice cream selection is amazing, I never knew there were so many. Feel free to ask questions, all the staff have been incredibly helpful. read more

Friendly staff and great tasty Indian food and amazing ice cream. No long wait and they serve you a chai while you wait.

This place is soft opening so far, but I was THRILLED to see it. A place with more South Asian street food and desserts exactly up my alley. We went and had the Falooda. They are working on the set up still, but the menu and service is excellent so far. I'll be excited to see what they do with the space. read more
