    Raspberry lime sorbet
    Krista U.

    One of my favorite spots for a sweet treat hidden within the neighborhood. I appreciate that there is a rotating menu, I usually get a sorbet flavor or some sort. Staff is usually friendly and you are allowed samples. If you check in on yelp, you can get a 10% discount!

    I only go to ice cream shops that sell their homemade ice cream, rather than buying it from a local dealer. Scoop takes it to another level, with ice cream made onsite every day. After reading that, I knew we had to check it out. It did not disappoint. The fact that it was fresh took it to another level. I feel like even if they weren't good at making ice cream, the freshness would shine through, and it would still be good. Thankfully, they know what there doing and it shows in their quality. Our first time there I ordered the cheese platter ice cream, thinking that it would be a cheese ice cream base. After I had the ice cream in hand, my wife asked the Scoop employee what was in the cheese platter. She said it was an apricot ice cream base with other stuff mixed in. "Oh no! I just ordered apricot ice cream." It was fine. Fortunately, I also ordered a second excellent flavor to accompany my apricot. Our next time back I asked for samples of each ice cream in my bowl, to confirm that they were flavors I liked. "Chocolate ice cream? I'll sample it first to confirm. Thanks." This is the best ice cream shop in Spokane.

    Strawberry guava sorbet and peach guava Italian soda
    Tasha L.

    I really enjoyed the strawberry guava sorbet and the peach guava Italian soda. My husband ordered the salted caramel iced cream. The low rating is because the scoop wasn't rinsed after getting my strawberry guava and was then used to scoop the caramel. And those flavors don't exactly mix well. My husband also found a long black hair in his iced cream.

    Great location and lovely outdoor seating area. Nice post-dinner spot to hang out with your friends/family. The ice cream selection is pretty good and they have fruit flavored vegan soft serve in pineapple and strawberry flavors.

    Dole whip swirl!
    Tia M.

    Yum!! Seriously! My friend reposted a post from the scoop talking about Dole Whip going away... I couldn't resist. Being new to Spokane (again) I had to go get some!!! I got the swirl and it was soooo good! Their confetti waffle cones are to die for. Not too sweet and actually have a bit of a chew which is so good instead of the typical crunchy crisp shell! We also got chocolate fruit punch all of which were very good! Cute little south hill location it wasn't overly packed. Service was good! Street parking. I wish they weren't going to take the dole whip away I could eat that everyday! Lol

    Thanks yelp for putting this spot on my map! Passion sorbet, pineapple soft serve, banoffee with almonds
    Mike P.

    My girlfriend said I had to write a review for this place after we ate it. She was so impressed, and I was too. I haven't been here for a few years and am ashamed I drove to downtown to get ice cream all this time. The new item that wasn't here before was the dole whip soft serve, which is an easy pleaser and refreshing on a hot day. Their homemade confetti waffle cones were a huge hit too and it seemed like everyone had one in their hands. A must try flavor if you love banana is banoffee (banana, cream, and toffee) with almonds. It was amazing and I'm a sucker for banana flavors. Some other favorites were the passionberry sorbet, coffee, and peach crumble. So don't make the mistake I made, if you're in the south hill, come support your local neighbor ice cream spot! Only $3 for a kid scoop! Thanks Yelp for reminding me of this awesome place!

    Raspberry lavender
    Huong L.

    I was in search of ice cream and this place came up on Yelp so decided to check it out. It's not located on the main Street so you have to be looking for it. I love that this support the community as they do charity events as well as donations. Their ice cream is spectacular. I got the coffee toffee almond and Omg, was delicious. You can taste every flavors that was described and it was fresh. I was able to sample a few other flavors such as the prickly pear lemonade, the mochi one and the coconut and they were all delicious. My friend loved the raspberry lavender. I also love that they have a variety of scoop size that other places don't tend to have like the baby scoop, the 1.5 scoop, etc. Other than that, prices were super reasonable, and even more affordable after the 10% discount Yelp check in. The people were super nice and friendly as well. Definitely a must place to check out if you're in Spokane

    Ice Cream in Waffle Cones
    Jacques I.

    Best ice cream in Spokane! Located in the South Hill neighborhood The Scoop serves housemade ice cream using nitrogen tanks. It's legit. All of their flavors are creamy, but has a lightness to it. In my recent visit I ordered a tween scoop of the Twinkle Berry and the Coconut Granola in a waffle cone that's made with rainbow sprinkles! Ya gotta get the waffle cone for your ice cream - no matter what flavor you get! The sprinkles make all the difference. I must also say that I'm a huge chocolate fan and normally lean towards chocolate flavors, but the Twinkle Berry and Coconut Granola were unbelievably good! The Twinkle Berry is made with mixed berries and sprinkles and tasted like there was some vanilla in it, kind of like tasting strawberry cheesecake! It was super good, so ordered my main scoop with this flavor. The Coconut Granola was my baby scoop of the tween scoop, which are two scoops of ice cream, the bottom being a regular size scoop and the top being a smaller scoop. It's a good way to try two flavors without feeling like a cow. And the Coconut Granola flavor I ordered was really good, with berries and granola in a coconut milk ice cream base. The Scoop has a rotating menu, so it's worth the frequent visits. In addition to their ice creams, they also serve Dole Whip and liege waffles and have a full espresso menu. Space inside is on the smaller side, but seating outside on a nice day was a pleasant experience. I love getting The Scoop!

No one asked if we'd made a reservation. I eventually asked a server at the bar if we should seat ourselves because we'd been standing there for so long. No, someone will help you soon. A host walked up. He was eating something. When he got to the host stand, he finished his food, took a big drink and wiped his hands before making eye contact with us. He said the wait would be 15 minutes. We sat down in the lobby. We were seated at a community table. The couple to our right finished their meal, paid the bill and left. Their seats were bussed. This all happened before our server greeted us. We ordered coffee. We waited. And waited. I scanned the restaurant for our server - or any server- to ask about our drinks and place our food order. No one else approached the table. Still no coffee. It had been 30 minutes. We decided to leave. The host realized we were leaving. He offered to find our server, pay for our meal, seat us somewhere else. He practically chased us out of the restaurant. I appreciated the sentiment but it was too little, too late and my teenage daughter was super uncomfortable with his approach. I was excited to eat at House of Brunch. I won't be back.

The inside as shown in my picture is very charming and old timey. Allow time to wait for a table unless you are just one or two like I was and able to grab a seat at the bar. I was able to sit immediately. The staff is very amiable and the hostess made the recommendation that I try the Caprese Benedict, which had fried tomatoes in place of bread, fresh basil and blood orange balsamic drizzle. They offer the option of one or two Benedict, which is nice if you aren't super hungry. They also give the option to smother the hashbrowns and cheese, which I obviously opted into. The menu is absolutely massive though, so if Benedict's or even breakfast aren't your jam, you should be able to find something that suits your fancy. Also worth noting that they offer a very wide variety of gourmet flavors of house-made juices (7 or 8) for mimosas, like honeydew melon mint which I tried as a soda with soda water since I was driving.

Started off with a Perfect Peach & Huckleberry Lemonade Mimosas that were divine! Everything on the menu sounded amazing so we ultimately decided on the chicken and biscuit with country gravy, the Honey Gochujang chicken sandwich with fries and the verde Hash with eggs on the side. The chicken and biscuit was a winner but be prepared for the food coma afterwards- worth every bite! Their fried chicken is perfectly seasoned and moist. I'm glad we shared the chicken sandwich because it would have been too much , too sweet, on its own. I was Expecting to get more heat but it was mostly sweet- could have used more of a tangy slaw and house dill pickles for texture and acidity. The title with Honey in it should have tipped me off. The Verde Hash was the best hash I've ever had and a generous portion. The use of roasted poblano peppers, red peppers, carnitas and potatoes was taken to next level with the feta cheese on top! Great flavor profile and big enough portion to share. I can't forget to mention the delightful server who patiently gave suggestions and went out of her way to make our first Bruncheonette Experience memorable.
