Ice cream shop · The District

"This downtown ice cream shop is smack in the middle of all of the hustle and bustle, which means it gets packed with tourists. But don't let that deter you. Mike’s Ice Cream Fountain makes good ice cream — simple like vanilla or over the top like chocolate raspberry truffle — and serves as a nice midday refuge from the heat." - Eater Staff
