    Incredible place like always a have been to a few few of the yard milkshake bars and they are always on point with the variety flavors and creativity. Place was super clean. The service is good very good milkshake makers and they take pride in wat they do and do an awesome shake!!!!!

    The service was friendly. They got busy after awhile. The screen menu changes quickly so I recommend scanning it the QR code for online menu. It has cute decor. I had the mini moo with cookies and cream ice cream and cookie dough. I loved it! It was $9. They charge a service fee, I'm guessing for using credit card. It's 4%.

    Surprisingly, as many times as I've been to Denver I've not previously been to the Yard Milkshake bare - despite my serious love of milkshakes! We stopped by here for an evening treat. The shop is small, but not overly crowded. There was a small line that we walked through to order and get our shake but it moved quickly enough. I ordered a coffee mocha milkshake and it came as expected. Tasty and enjoyable. We sat at the shop and enjoyed it. I imagine there is quite a bit of traffic as by the evening the shop is not what I would call "tidy" although not out of hand......but defiantly signs of spilled ice cream, sticky spots on the tables from the day were noticeable. We probably would have taken it to go if we just got milkshakes, but my wife had a scoop which was easier to consume at the shop. The deserts were tasty and I'll likely try it again, but may take it on the go next time.

    My friend and I stopped in for a sweet treat, and let me tell you--we were NOT disappointed! He got two scoops (honestly, I can't even remember because my milkshake stole the show). I went with the Heath Bar Crunch vanilla milkshake, and oh my goodness--it was heaven in a cup. I mean, it didn't bring the boys to the yard, but who cares when it tastes this good?! If you're craving something sweet and seriously indulgent, this is the spot. Highly recommend--your taste buds will thank you!

    Ice crrrrream!!!! It was HOTT we were in 90 degree weather and wanted to cool down. Found this on 16th mall since we were close by! I mean ice cream is ice cream there were many flavors it was okay, i got mint chocolate chip and i must say maybe a little too much mint chip my son got cookie dough and said to many cookie dough pieces like he was eating straight cookie dough. We were fishing out the ice cream. My daughter got a milk shake and i did not realize it was $20!!! It did come with a cheese cake so i guess understandable and you got to keep the cup. The service was good. One of the workers brought our ice cream and shake to the table. It was cute laid back ambiance. I must say maybe it was just that day it was very humid and a bit warm inside we thought we would be walking in to nice cool AC

    Fun place, especially with kiddos. The milkshakes with pie or cake or donuts and big treats on top were so fun to watch being made and would be a great treat for a group. We went in for a simple scoop and loved the selection of flavors (who doesn't appreciate blue bell!). The staff were working very hard to keep up with the long line and make sure folks got their items quickly. The mega-milkshake thing is a little gimmicky, but it's still fun.

    Coffee ice cream, very delicious!

    I happened upon this spot this last Tuesday following lunch nearby. I was in the mood for some dessert and this place delivered on some scrumptious treats. It was clear from their name that they had ice cream, but the cookie dough was a pleasant surprise. Boy, they have some great stuff. Such an incredible, mind blowing selection, a deep variety of choices and concoctions that can be created and enjoyed. Wow, what a fantastic place! Staff were efficient and welcoming. Pleasant, simple atmosphere with enough tables for quite a few people to enjoy at a time. Reasonably busy for a relatively quiet outside Tuesday afternoon. People know this place and stop in for delicious treats.

    1:00pm on a Sunday snow day afternoon, what else could be better than an ice cream lunch. Very nice staff, clean workspace with all those sauces and toppings. Would definitely go again but for a special occasion not an every weekend thing. Our order was around $55.

    Mint Green Monster

    My friend and I came in the evening. The place had a nice farmyard aesthetic. The vanilla shake was good and the blue monster shake as well. We wanted to try the specialty shakes but there wasn't enough staff available.

    The menu is a bit hard to read- there's so many options and the screen rotates between a few slides so for a first timer it was overwhelming trying to decide! The menu has a wide variety and I think they have something for almost anyone. We got the August special shake- the Cookie Craze, and a cookie dough pop The pop I wouldn't do again. Just wasn't anything special for me. The shake was b e a utiful. A work of art created for social media posts! And just as tasty. The employees aren't fun like at cold stone, but maybe they're not paid enough to have fun at work idk. Would come back for the shakes!

    Mint chocolate chip milkshake

    Way too overpriced for what it is. And let's be honest my boyfriend and I were expecting to be able to get alcoholic milkshakes due to the name. But besides that I am running out of breath SUCKING on this straw trying to get some milkshake. They don't even deliver the straw with the drink when they walk past the straws anyways. Not that big of a deal but seems a little dumb imho. Overall it wasn't a bad experience but for the price? Take your money elsewhere. This is nothing to write home about. One drink. Not specialty. $12+ Also they sell the ice cream packages in their labeled jars but it's not even made in store it's blue bell ice cream packages. Tbh just avoid the store.

    The milkshake was good and the manger was nice . The milkshake are 15 but 5 dollars more you get the cup to it not bad and it big. The manger was a lot of help let us try flavors. The restaurant is nice and family friendly. There's so games there too . Must try!

    Two words I would use to describe Yard would be overindulgent and mediocre. I've been wanting to try The Yard for a while now and since I was in downtown I decided to go. Their focus is specialty shakes and bowls but you can get just a scoop without all the extras. Hubby and I decided to share a bowl, and it was plenty! While I enjoyed what we got, I personally wouldn't make a special trip to go back. They use Blue Bell ice cream which is fine but I can also get that at grocery stores and make my own, probably cheaper too. Since they are getting mixed reviews, my recommendation is try and decide for yourself, don't not go based on reviews. Good to know: this store is located on the 16th St. Mall, right next to a Target. You will need to park elsewhere and walk. The Denver Pavilions has a large parking garage and is only 2 blocks away (parking payment is $7). There are also a few parking lots around the area too but payment is required.

    These are not cheap milkshakes, but they are also not run of the mill. Fancy, loaded and absolutely delicious.

    While everyone talks about Little Man, I'm surprised more people don't mention Bonnie Brae. It is…read moremy absolute favorite ice cream spot in Denver! It always hits the spot and I never get tired of it. It has that classic neighborhood feel where there is usually a line outside, but it is always worth the wait. The Order: Salted Oreo & Price The Salted Oreo is my go-to because it has the perfect sweet and salty balance I love. If I'm not getting that, I'm getting the Lemon Custard. Both are incredible. For a double scoop in a cup, it cost about $8-$9. While they have great vegan and dairy-free options, the Salted Oreo I get is their traditional dairy version. Homemade: One of the reasons it tastes so good is that they make their own ice cream and cones right on-site! You can really taste the difference in the freshness of the scoops and the crunch of the waffle cones. Customer Service: Even when it's packed inside with people ready to order, the staff is very quick and efficient. The customer service is great, which is impressive considering how busy they usually are. Parking: A huge plus for this location is the free street parking, making it an easy and accessible stop compared to other busy areas. Overall Experience: I managed to time my last visit earlier in the day to beat the line, but even when it's busy, the quality is top-tier. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! It's a local gem that truly deserves more hype.

    Stopped by this charming, vintage-style ice cream spot with my boyfriend after my birthday dinner,…read moreand wow--such a sweet way to end the night. We originally wanted to check it out because the line was literally wrapped around the place (always a good sign), but it moved surprisingly fast. We were definitely overdressed coming from a fine dining dinner, but the server was so kind--he complimented us, asked what we were celebrating, and when I told him it was my birthday, he made it extra special by not charging me for my ice cream and giving us a military discount. Totally unexpected and genuinely appreciated. Now... the ice cream. SO good. We both absolutely devoured ours--rich, creamy, classic perfection. I got a two-scoop waffle cone with lemon custard and (I think) Bordeaux cherry, and I haven't stopped thinking about that lemon custard since. Bright, smooth, and just the right balance of sweet and tangy. Between the quality, the service, and the overall experience, it was 100% worth the wait. Already looking forward to going back.

We…read morestumbled upon this little gem completely by accident while visiting the Natural History Museum, and honestly? Best accidental discovery of my entire trip to Denver. This tiny, adorable hole-in-the-wall shop is everything you want in a neighborhood ice cream spot -- warm, welcoming, unpretentious, and run by two of the most genuinely lovely women I've ever encountered in the food service industry. From the moment our group of six walked in, we felt like we'd been coming here for years. They were patient, enthusiastic, and clearly passionate about every single thing they make. Now let me talk about the ICE CREAM, because wow. Six people, multiple flavors between us, and not one single complaint -- which if you know my family, is basically a miracle. Everything was rich, creamy, and tasted completely homemade in the best possible way. But the thing that absolutely sent me over the edge? BANANA PUDDING. Multiple banana pudding options. I grew up in the South and I have been low-key grieving the lack of banana pudding culture everywhere else I've lived, and here it is -- in Denver, Colorado -- done absolutely right. I may have embarrassed myself slightly. No regrets. This is a Black woman-owned business and these two have built something truly special. It's family-friendly, it's joyful, and it has that rare quality of feeling like a place that was made with real love. If you're anywhere near the museum, you would be genuinely doing yourself a disservice to walk past this place. Go in. Get the banana pudding. Thank me later.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
