Sweet action cake highly recommended by a friend -- and it did not disappoint! One of the yummiest ice cream scoops I've ever had. I can't remember the name of the flavor, but it had Oreos. It was creamy, rich, and I chocolate-y enough. I went late in the evening (maybe an hour before closing) + parking wasn't too bad (right across the street). It's a super cute establishment! I can't wait to go back. read more

Sweet Action - Oreo chocolate ice cream (I think...) - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Got some ice cream here after seeing a comedy show next-door, the staff was really nice and the place was cute with a few small tables in the back I tried a few different ice creams before deciding, including the Beetlejuice, leftover from Halloween, but i felt they were lacking in flavor. It was just very soft, Then I tried the salted butterscotch and felt it had a lot more zap to it. I wanted to split my scoop with two flavors, but at that point I had already tried three or four flavors and didn't want to keep asking to try more lol. So I got the salted butterscotch and tried the cake explosion without sampling it first. I was a little disappointed by it, I felt it was also a little lackluster in flavor, but with the salted butterscotch, it was good read more

I absolutely adore this chic little ice cream joint. It's located right on Broadway in a very eclectic part of town. It's a very queer area and the LGBTG patrons are my tribe. I feel comfortable among my kind, that's for sure. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The place is clean, well organized and I really enjoy the huge open window space looking out on Broadway. It's a great way to people watch, enjoy the evening and eat ice cream. I ordered a scoop of pina colada sorbet in a waffle cone and it was pure heaven. Creamy, smooth, cold and yummy. I love this area of Broadway and now I have yet another reason to spend time among my people. read more

If you're in broadway and looking for something sweet, come to Sweet Action. They have a nice selection of flavors to choose from and they have a nice variety of GF and Vegan choices. They have samples to try. It's a nice little spot with plenty of seating. A nice place if you're looking for dessert after dinner. I got the banana toffee and that was actually really delicious. However, when I sampled it, I didn't taste any chocolate chips but it did come with chocolate so not my cup of tea. Otherwise, it tasted like banana bread as ice cream. The flavors do change so there's always something new to try. read more

After a mid-day walk on the hottest day in over 2 weeks, I needed a place to sit and cool off. Since there are few shaded benches on Broadway, I came to Sweet Action. I noticed 2 new alcoholic ice creams &1 alcholic sorbet plus new ice creams. I chose the Coffee Road with coffee ice cream and pecans. The server mentioned that it had pecans in it. She said some customers recently complained about the nuts but didn't read the menu board. It clearly indicates nuts. Maybe scanning phone screens too much, people are losing comprehension skills. The Ice cream was smooth and a little sweet with crunchy pecans. Plenty of indoor seating with their unique garage door counter. You can buy pints and I saw new dairy-free frozen desserts in a cookie. Also new pup cups. They do not accept tips and only take credit/debit cards. read more

Yes, Sweet Action is a bit pricey for ice cream but is heavenly and 100% worth it IMHO. I got one of their seasonal flavors of orange cardamom (and I believe something else I'm forgetting what it was) and it was amazing. None of their flavors were too overpowering and they meshed really well. In short, this ice cream is awesome. read more

I love Sweet Action! They have the absolute best flavors and EVERYONE can find a flavor that they like. They also have ice cream sammies and stooper dupers! A strooper duper is an ice cream sammie made with their housemade version of a stroopwaffel, housemade caramel, and sweet cream ice cream! It is absolutely delicious!! My favorite ice creams right now are Thai Tea and Vietnamese Coffee. read more

Sweet Action - Just a couple of friends sharing a Stooper Duper after eating our own ice cream cones! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Denver, Colorado

As someone who can't have dairy at the moment, I was really excited to see how many vegan options they had available. Some were sorbets but there was also a lot of other chocolate based flavours. The waffle cones are quite brittle and thin but I actually enjoyed that and thought it paired well with the ice cream. The one scoop is very generous and the staff was very pleasant/friendly. The space was big and in a cool area of town to explore afterwards. read more

This place is so cute and the ice cream is yummy! I like how they stay open pretty late. The service was awesome, she allowed us to try as many flavors as we wanted until we chose what we liked. She also shared which were the best sellers, with an overall great attitude she seemed very happy to help which always makes experiences that much better. Salted butterscotch is a 10/10! Me and my friends loved our ice cream. read more

Sweet Action - Half French chocolate & half cookie dough latte - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Stopped by Sweet Action for a treat on Mother's Day after lunch nearby. It was nice and quiet and calm inside when we arrived. We were greeted right away and were able to try some different flavors. They have a lot of gluten free and vegan options to choose from. I tried the French chocolate and hubby tried the salted butterscotch. Our son had a vanilla bean cone with sprinkles. Everything tasted great and the employee working all by themselves was super friendly and helpful! read more

My daughter had a craving for a nice milk shake. After having a dinner at an exquisite French restaurant only 5 minutes away, we came here for a little scoop of ice cream and an exquisite milk shake. And Sweet Action actioned to take care of us!! This place doesn't have a massive selection of ice cream to choose from. But they have interesting/intriguing flavors no other ice cream places have such as Stranahan's Whiskey Brickle, Strawberry Chamomile, Lavender Caramel to name a few. What's great is that each flavor is marked with V for vegan, GF for gluten free; I appreciate this conscientiousness to serve people with dietary restrictions. This place is so generous about giving out samples/tasters. My daughter asked a sample of three different flavors; the young lady behind the counter said, "No problem!!" They truly want you go have the flavor that suits your palate. My daughter picked Lavender Caramel and something else for her milk shake; I chose Colorado's proudest, Stranahan's Whiskey in a kiddy cup. They surely took care of our sweet tooth after our dinner; this ended up being an exquisite action to end our night!! read more

My very favorite ice cream in Denver! The flavors are ever-changing, and I love that there's a mix of "basics" and more gourmet flavors. Don't sleep on the speakeasy in their Uptown location too - enter through the freezer door! read more

Great ice cream! The consistency was super thick and creamy. We tried root beer, whiskey, salty butterscotch, and pistachio lemon shortbread. My favorite was definitely the pistachio because the chunks of shortbread were so good. I also loved the butterscotch. The root beer flavor was super intense and I thought the whiskey one was pretty good but not my favorite. Because there is alcohol in that one the consistency is a bit different. Service was super nice and the store was actually super clean. read more

After being back in denver for a couple years I finally made my way to Sweet Action on Broadway! And it just have been in the stars because right after we got there the line grew by 10 people. Must be why they limit tasters to two flavors, totally makes sense now. I tried Gansito and Cold Brew and they were out of this world. The flavors were outstanding yet not too sweet and it was oh so creamy. Love the garage door opening where you can sit at the counter and get some quality people watching. Add this one to your list! read more

Delicious! I had to buy a tub to take home. Love the inventive flavors. I didn't loooove a few that I tried but that's what's fun about creative flavors-- especially at places that are constantly introducing new ones. The carmelized pear was so good! The person working was also so nice and patient as I decided what to order haha. read more

Always fresh and high quality ice cream. And it's very lgbtq friendly, so it feels comfortable to be there!

This last weekend, my partner and I had a friend in town who requested we do an ice cream crawl. Let me just tell you, it was a blast. My partner had never been to Sweet Action, so when we found ourselves on the south end of town, I insisted we start our weekend-long ice cream crawl there since it's a shop with some quirkier flavors. When we arrived we spent the longest time pondering the menu. Our friend determined she could get six flavors in one bowl by getting three scoops and utilizing the split option for a dollar more. She has a nut allergy, which the person serving us on Friday night was amazing about considering when choosing flavors. She was able to choose from a broad variety too, which was also ideal for this adventure! I also chose Sweet Action because they have dairy-free options. I am dairy-free, for the most part, so it was great to have various options despite my limitations. I tried the Smoked Chocolate Cherry Torte. The first smoke-filled bite hit hard, like eating barbeque, but once it tapered I really enjoyed the flavor variety. It was a really fun flavor to try. Sweet Action is a fun stop for anyone who likes quirkier flavors of ice cream. I think if you're a classic ice cream purist, it might not appeal as much. However, it is fun to have such wild flavors to start conversations with your friends. read more

This has been a long time favorite ice cream shop of mine for the past 12 years! Always willing to go outta my way to enjoy this spot!

Listen, this is the best Ice Cream in Denver and it's not even close. Their flavors are always innovative and they rotate them out seasonally. read more

Great spot, service is slow and casual, price point is high but tip is included. Love the Thai iced tea ice cream.

I ordered the branch and barrel coffee honey swirl and the salted butterscotch. The staff told us the salted butterscotch was one of their top sellers, and I could clearly taste why. I got both ice cream in the cone, and they were both rich in flavor. I didn't like the waffle cone itself. The staff were really friendly during our experience. read more

When I think of iconic ice cream in Denver, I think of Sweet Action. That "little guys" ice cream has nothing compared to Sweet Action. 9 out of 10 times I end up with the Stranahans Whiskey Brickel. Dreams are made of this ice cream. To boot, the staff is incredibly welcoming and diverse. The space is open to all. Tips aren't accepted because they pay their people a living wage. No little guy could touch this place! read more

Not sure if the same lady still works there but last time I was there, she had a disgusting attitude with every single customer. I asked for 2 samples and she told me to pick one and refused to give any of my friends more than 1 sample. What kind of rule is this? I've been to sweet action so many times and this has never happened. Then absolutely hilarious we were charged a service fee after. I'm all for tipping your service workers but not like this. read more

Awesome. I have dairy problems but their ice cream is sooo delicious. They have non dairy options which is great for me (strawberry chamomile). They also do collabs with local businesses (Stranahan's whiskey brickle). I would come back often and recommend others to get their ice cream. read more

This place is by no means not tasty. However, what they charge for ice cream is insanity to me, so I can't recommend it. The ice cream always taste too thin to me, so I'm guessing they add too much sugar or something. I really want to like this place because it's convenient, but boy it's always a disappointment Also the lines can be really slow :( read more

Went in for a milkshake. They had neither milk nor chocolate ice cream. They offered me a soy shake which I turned down.

Great service tonight at the Broadway location and we had some really delicious flavors! Check out the maple biscoff and the salted golden Oreo, both amazing! read more

Smooth and almost sticky like consistency ice cream when you dig your spoon in and lift. Customer service was awesome too. I think we went at a bad time because the flavors were very safe and nothing too exotic enough for my preference. The most exotic flavor available that night was a strawberry balsamic goat cheese ice cream flavor but I had a pizza similar to that at dinner before this place. read more

Ice cream was tasty but don't like their practice to add 18% staff fee without disclosure.

Such good ice cream! They're also the friendliest and very family friendly. There's endless options to choose from in terms of flavors and toppings, and the portions are pretty big. There were 3 of us and we all shared one bowl and it was more than enough! Service is great, you don't wait too long and it's nice enjoying it indoors away from the Denver sun read more

Sweet Action - a woman behind the counter of a cafe - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Denver, Colorado

The service was great but the flavor wasn't there... I did not take photos cause I was out with family. I visited Sweet Action right after having dinner at a restaurant near by. It smelled amazing in there! So sweet and heavenly! I was excited they had a lot of fun flavors and options! I got a classic Vanilla Bean Milkshake! The size was huge and perfect!! Everyone knows what vanilla bean is suppose to taste like so I was really excited. When I took my first sip, I was a little dissatisfied. It barely tasted like vanilla. I honestly thought it was a little on the bland side. I was kind of upset I paid close to $9 for a bland milkshake. My friends got other flavors and they all seemed to like theirs. Over all I just wish the flavor was there cause the size was right, but the flavor wasn't there for the price. read more

I'm not sure what the woman working behind the counter had against my girlfriend and me, but it was just an off vibe from the beginning. My gf wanted a kids cup (no she's not a kid) and the woman said she couldn't because it's kids only. Fine, then my gf asked for a single cup but just "not that much." I'm not sure if there was a misunderstanding, but the woman was just not having it. I really can't describe how rude she was, it was just a bizarre reaction. She said my gf was making a big deal out of it, and I assure you she could not have been nicer. All she wanted was less than a single scoop, we would have paid full price for it if we were told to. Just so rude and nasty for no reason. My gf was so nice and didn't want to cause problems, and this woman's rudeness really affected her. Needless to say we'll never be going back. read more

Had the strawberry chamomile, and it was sooo good! Might be my new favorite flavor. I heard so many good things about this shop that I had to try it myself! Thankfully there wasn't a long line, so it was a quick stop. The shop is in such a cute little area too. I definitely recommend sitting outside! read more

The innovation of the flavors at Sweet Action is very impressive as well as variety of non dairy/vegan flavors. I got a scoop of their vegan chocolate walnut brownie with the vegan chocolate sauce and almonds on top. The ice cream was impressive with the blondies but definitely needed the sauce and almonds on top as the base wasn't extremely rich in flavor. A cute inside with plenty of places to sit. read more
