When Yelp offers a 15% off on a sweet treat like ice cream, one makes the trek to Union Station from the burbs to indulge! Carly W and I did just that, and our experience did not disappoint! Here's why:
++ Despite being in the heavy populated area of downtown Denver, parking was a breeze! I spotted a vacant spot on the street within a short walking distance of Union Station ? and free I might add!
++ The outdoor patio was spacious, inviting and featured a variety of tables for our dining pleasure! Although marked Milkbox, upon entering you're greeted with a quaint coffee shop with ice cream to the right. As we walked in, I felt like I had transported back to the 1950's, as the space featured old school touches, glass jars filled with candies and the cutest decoration. The ice cream attendant even wore a vintage cap!
++ Although I had looked at the menu online beforehand, I was surprised to see different flavors displayed on the board ? however, everything sounded delicious making it hard for me to choose! NOTE: They aren't serving tasters at the moment (because, you know, COVID) so choose wisely!
++ The flavors here are off the charts! I opted for two scoops in a bowl (with a waffle cone on top!) with one scoop of the salted caramel peanut butter cup and the other with banana Brule ? and HOLY YUM! The flavors were bold, yet melded well together, creating the perfect bite! My friend opted for the cinnamon churro with a scoop of butterscotch, which was sweet to the taste and hit the spot! Also on the menu ? boozy shakes! Literally something for everyone!
Although I haven't gotten my ice cream fix in a while, it was nice to indulge in a sweet treat with gorgeous city views. When in the area, I'll gladly return!
