Miri’s Snack Shack Review - Ballard - Seattle - The Infatuation

"Before Miri’s, Golden Gardens was just a regular beach full of screaming children flying kites and 20-somethings attempting to make charcoal-grilled brats. But now that Miri’s Snack Shack opened in the concession booth, many food scenarios are possible: an acai bowl for the person who just jogged on the sand, or a round of excellent chicken kebab sandwiches with tahini on homemade flatbread for the gang that’s about to play a volleyball game, or a virgin pina colada slushie for the kid who’s crying about the fact that he’s really bad at sandcastle-building. Most of the food in this colorful little spot is made from scratch, and it’s all delicious. Don’t forget to add harissa to your flatbread sandwich, watch them flip mini Dutch pancakes right in front of you, and end with a seriously good chocolate chip cookie. photo credit: Nate Watters" - Aimee Rizzo

We ate here while we waited for the Rocky Mountain National Park opened at 2pm to people that didn’t make a reservation. The sights in Grand Lake were beautiful. The people that worked the Snack Bar were sweet and quick ! There is 30min parking across the street with a small boat Marina. There is also a small park with paddle boats and a beach so you relax!

So glad I stopped here while I was in Grand Lake! There are so many fun, creative flavors that it was hard to choose. Loved being able to sit on a bench by the lake and enjoy the view with my ice cream

Took the family on a weekend getaway and found another dive that offers an omni menu! Gorgeous views since it is located right at the lake! Best fries and ice cream!

We went to this ice cream stand twice in a couple of days after kayaking. The line moves quickly, the flavors are plentiful and unique (different flavors on the menu only a few days apart), and the ice cream is excellent. Thick, rich, flavorful. I had the hazelnut with dark chocolate chunks first. So much chocolate! It was great. Second visit I had the peach, a perfect flavor for summer.

Very delicious homemade ice cream. We've been there twice in two days. Very busy both times. Right along the lake. Nice area to walk or sit and have your ice cream 🍦

This place is fantastic! The people are great and the ice cream is fantastic! I had the black raspberry cheesecake and it was perfect! Love the flavor. Wife had the samoas. Really good ice cream and flavor! My little one had the birthday cake and absolutely loved it.

Excellent all around. Burgers taste really good. The buns are soft, put on top of the grill before being brought out, burger cooked well, ingredients fresh. The chicken nuggets are good too, the fries are excellent, well cooked and crispy. The prices are really fair, especially for the location. The ice cream is well priced, flavorful, and plentyful. The atmosphere is great. Right on the water, comfortable seating, and outdoors. The coke is good too, I think they use cane sugar? Whatever it is, it's good. Highly recommend this place.

This is a small snack country serving lunch (burgers, etc) plus really tasty home style ice cream (including some specialty flavors). There's a small seating area or you can easily walk across the street to be closer to the lake. Friendly service. Fair prices. Corn dogs are just frozen ones but the burgers were tasty with perfect buns.

Kimberli R.

Yelp

The line of people waiting to get food and ice cream at this snack bar is wild! Located right by the lake, the ice cream for people and fur babies is delicious. The onion rings are to die for and the corn dogs are tasty. If you can wait in the line; it's worth it. The food is prepared quickly. Seating is limited. Parking is by the lake. Calorie count is probably high but who's counting?

Mateo D.

Yelp

The ice cream is delicious. Service is always nice and ambience is fantastic while you wait for your food. Had the patty melt and fries one time and it was fresh, hot, and exactly what I was craving that day. Prices are also pretty reasonable for a snack.

Elizabeth K.

Yelp

Super good chicken fingers, dipping sauces and ice cream ! Dulce de leche was so good (caramel macchiato )

Steph C.

Yelp

Cute ice cream shop near the marina at grand lake! Order at one window and pick up at the next window over. Service was fast and friendly. Ice cream was really good--one kiddo had cookies and cream and it had the most cookies I've ever seen in an ice cream--no skimping here! I had the chai latte and my other kiddo had soft serve chocolate. It was a perfect stop while on our pontoon boat tour of the lakes--parked at the nearby public marina and a quick walk to this spot was just what we needed!

Kathy C.

Yelp

Hands down the best ice cream in the area! Unique homemade flavors and old favs, as well as sundaes and well executed grilled item menu. Have your meal but definitely save room for dessert! We met Joan as they were cleaning up and getting ready to open. SO friendly and she remembered our names when we visited later that day. Counter service was efficient working the long line and our tasty treats came out quickly. The cozy, patios had umbrellas and areas to sit in the shade/out of any rain that might pop up when you visit. We're going back again tomorrow, one last time, before we return to Texas. (Wish some of that amazing Sage and pecan ice cream could make the road trip!)

Their ice cream was super yummy and everyone worked there was super nice. Went there every day when we were at grand lake.

Great staff with great food and ice cream. Was a nice pick me up after spending the day at grand lake.

Bruce T.

Amazing patty melt, french fries, and ice cream. We went multiple times during our weekend in Grand Lake. We'll definitely be back!

Tanvi P.

Yelp

This place is a Grand Lake institution with friendly staff and a variety of yummy homemade ice creams. Loved the coffee caramel crunch! Love that they have non dairy options too. They also have soft serve, and some burgers and hot dogs. There is always a long line so be prepared to wait. But it's worth it!

Kate E.

Yelp

Had the lemon chiffon ice cream & it was awesome. My family had other flavors of ice cream & all were excellent. This place is very orderly & even if it looks like a long line they are very efficient & very quick...worth standing in line for.

Courtney E.

Yelp

My little girl loved the fresh strawberry homemade ice cream. You could tell it's made with love. def going back again during our visit to Grand Lake CO.

Alina S.

Yelp

Nice place for ice cream at Grand Lake. I tried a dairy free option, the coconut pineapple ice cream and it was delicious! Thick and creamy ice cream texture. Loved it.

Cindy M.

Yelp

I wasn't expecting an ice cream bar with fun, unique flavors at Grand Lake, so it was nice to find Miyauchi! Location: perfect, right next to Grand Lake Price after tax: $4.64 for a single scoop Flavor: Lemongrass basil - the flavor combo didn't taste right and i think this would've been better if it was a sorbet. I'm sure the other flavors would've been better but i don't recommend this flavor. Service: fast and friendly Overall, I would come back to try another flavor next time.

Dan N.

Yelp

Food was decent and well-priced, however check your order for doneness. Two in my party got food poisoning from undercooked burgers.

Amanda B.

Yelp

Super tasty ice cream. We loved the variety of unique flavors. The mint chip and cashew caramel were the best!

Ron B.

Yelp

Excellent ice cream and a fabulous location. I definitely recommend this place for your sweet tooth needs in Grand Lake.

Ericka H.

Yelp

Best ice cream with the best view There are several choices for ice cream in town, but none with an incredible view of Grand Lake from the boardwalk! This is our after dinner treat every weekend.

Israel G.

Yelp

Prime location, great outdoor sitting area, locally owned, fast, well-priced, and tips help support owners kids who are in college. I had a soft served banana split that was very good and then I ordered a side of chili fries! I never had a banana split that was soft served, so I was a little skeptical when I ordered it. I was not disappointed at all with the ice cream. The chili fries were also delish! The staff and owner were very welcoming and friendly. There are a ton of ice cream shops in the area, but I think this is the only waterfront location and it offers the best views of the mountains and lake.

Lindsay L.

Yelp

I really really really am sad they don't have their burgers right now! I hope it's not a permanent change. We eat her almost every night when they did. Their ice cream is still the best! However they did give us the wrong waffle cone when ordered a chocolate dipped one with sprinkles. No biggie. Still delicious. But took off a star from last time since no burgers.

Ruth D.

Yelp

I'm so happy to find a place with vegan ice cream! Seems like they have one rotating flavor at a time. Super tasty. Staff is always nice. Wish they sold their cool t shirts!

Mr J.

Yelp

Fantastic place, fast friendly service, affordable food at good quality, wonderful malts and ice cream.

Vince L.

Yelp

We were looking for a place to have a snack after a long day of driving and we stumbled upon this gem! Don't let the line scare you away. They are fast and any wait you have is worth it. There are a lot of 'locals' and by that I mean folks staying in nearby hotels and the like, who are repeat customers. I found this out while chatting with a few in line. Very friendly folks both in the business and in the line. The portions are on the large side which is OK for me. Table seating around is a bit tight at times but with the lake right there you can wander and snack. We only got ice cream though others got a wide variety of food.

Carmen L.

Yelp

This snack bar took me back to my childhood. The burgers are made to order and their ice cream was so good! The burger was crunchy and tasted like those you'd find at an old counter service burger bar. Not greasy and with crunchy, fresh lettuce. Worth every calorie. The ice cream was good and, simply put, just fun because you're next to the lake. This is a great spot during the summer and early fall.

Sadie A.

Yelp

This spot is PRIME location and has some of the most incredible homemade ice cream. The eating highlight of our trip to grand lake. The food is good (not gourmet) but I was actually VERY surprised by how good it was. The fries and onion rings are the perfect salty compliment to a big scoop of their homemade ice cream. All the flavors I tried were delicious. They change nearly daily so it keeps you coming back! The hamburger and tenders were tasty and filling after a day on the lake and in town. The hamburger bun was really soft and made the burger for me. GO HERE after a lake day or some shopping for a treat.

Renae S.

Yelp

If I could give Miyauchi more stars I would. They have some of the BEST homemade ice cream. We spent a week and a half in our beloved Grand Lake and would come down almost every night to see what new flavor she had made for us to try. The campfire s'mores, grass hopper, strawberry cheesecake, salted Carmel are all some of our favorites. You can not go wrong with any of the homemade flavors. Then walk across the street and sit on the dock and take in some of the best scenery in Grand Lake.

Marli G.

Yelp

MUST GO! Great soft serve, malts, cherry dipped cones, and flavors! Best spot in town and great view!

Stephanie L.

Yelp

I had to stop here for their homemade ice cream. I'd been dreaming about it ever since researching for an upcoming trip to Grand Lake. I went with the lemongrass basil, because how I could I not? And the fiancé did their salty salted caramel in a chocolate dipped waffle cone. The homemade ice cream is such a treat, and they have so many flavors, good luck picking one. The texture is heavenly, so thick and unlike any ice cream you'll find in a carton at the store. Plop this bad boy right in front of the most beautiful lake, and you have yourself one perfect summer evening.

Aurore-Cecile V.

Yelp

We were staying on the other side of RMNP (Estes Park) but during our stay there we went 3 times to Grand Lake. We tried this place for ice cream the 1st time and we loved them. They are homemade some flavors change everyday. We went back each time we went back to Grand Lake. We tried a total of 6 flavors during our stay and all of them were so good ! The waffle cone is very good too !

Azure G.

Yelp

We only ordered ice cream here but as an ice cream fiend, I can honestly say this was top notch. Can't beat that made in-house taste!

Anivesh B.

Yelp

Had a Tuna melt, french fries and a Nutty rocky road in a waffle cone. All of them tasted great and the setting of the snack bar next to the scenic Grand lake was a lit combo! 10/10 would go again.

Belle S.

Yelp

On our trip to Grand Lake, I got ice cream from here every night. Yes, it is that good. I had a different flavor every night and none of them disappointed. I loved the location--plenty of seating and beautiful views of the lake.

Christina B.

Yelp

love love love. Great for all ages! We do miss the burgers!hope y'all are able to hire more help so those amazing burgers can come back!!

Sm B.

Yelp

This little place is run like a chick Fil a. Nice people, great eats and stunningly clean. Their attention to detail is unmatched in Grand County.

El M.

Yelp

Such a pleasant surprise to find this walk up counter service ice cream shop that offers non-dairy ice cream. We tried each of the two vegan options: mint Oreo and Amaretto vanilla. Both flavors were exceptional!! Highly recommend!!

Damien S.

Yelp

Three bucks and change will score you a deep set scoop of super premium cookies and cream, overflowing with the Oreos, slow melting and flecked with Tahitian vanilla bean. And while the default cone is that weird wafer style (why no sugar cone?), the staff packs it full of ice cream down through the base. No hollow cone bites. Is this heaven? Better, it's Grand Lake. She crushed her chocolate shake, and if you're in the mood for something savory before/after dessert, this waterfront shack serves carnival staples (think fried and griddles things). A few tables sidle the hut, but if you're not walking the lakeside with cone in hand, you're doing it wrong.

Tracee L.

Yelp

Yum. Great homemade ice cream and burgers and hotdogs and sandwiches too. Plus this place sits right on the Grand Lake beach and public dock.

Kavipriya K.

Yelp

Everything about this place shouts summer. They have the best flavors in Grand Lake so as you're walking through Main Street, make sure you don't waste time at any of the other ice cream stores and try this one first. The Hawaiian crunch and raspberry chocolate were the best( we tried like 5 flavors). After a day out in the water, the onion rings and French fries- perfectly crispy doled out in huge portions are exactly what we needed.

Kevin B.

Yelp

This place offers real deal homemade ice cream, delicious and creamy. Great flavor combos made in small batches. The line can be a bit of a wait for the hot food, but you're right on the shore of a beautiful mountain lake so it's hardly a sacrifice. Also, this place DOES take credit cards, which took me a while to find out online.

Ryan H.

Yelp

Delicious ice cream that is fresh and flavorful. There were lots of different flavor options, and varieties between the hand scooped ice cream as well as soft serve. They also have different toppings if you want incorporated into your ice cream. The burgers and fries and other snacks are plentiful and served fresh made to order. I would definitely come back for the ice cream but, would try to come when it is not as busy. I am not sure when it's not busy, as this is a very popular place close to the water and easy to access! I was somewhat disappointed in the price for what is delivered and the inconsistency between the exact same scoops of ice cream. One scoop was fresh and creamy and the other scoop seemed to be icy and crunchy. I'm not sure how that happens but it did. I will definitely come back and try more seasonal flavors as I'm sure they are more fresh.

Barbara B.

Yelp

Best ice cream in town. Hand made and delicious. Owners are so welcoming. Highly recommend.

Great burgers and ice cream! Beautiful lake views. We found this place on accident during a trip to Grand Lake. Not sure why it is only listed as an ice cream place on Yelp when they have great food options.

Ice was pretty good. Handmade and soft serve. Got a grilled cheese which was ok. They still use styrofoam which seems odd this day and age. Really nice location down by the water. Very friendly, hard working staff.

Andrea B.

Yelp

This a good spot for something fast and cheap- I had to see their take on ice cream - (Only because their signs say homemade ice cream- ) The line was pretty long but steady- We also tried a double cheese burger, fries, and a corn dog - The cheeseburger was awesome and corn dog crispy, fries were hot and fresh- My homemade vanilla bean cone was ok- next time I will try chocolate-

V-ron D.

Delicious homemade ice cream! There is a reason they are number one! Ate it too quick and realized didn't take a picture! A must !!!

Holy cow! If you get the chance to come in to Grand Lake, be sure to hit up the beach area and be ABSOLUTELY sure you get some food and ice cream from Miyauchi Snack Bar. We had heard that this was a fantastic place to grab a bite and we were not at all disappointed. We ordered the Chaparrel burger (bacon cheeseburger) and the Mountain Man burger (double bacon cheeseburger). OMG I could eat those burgers all day long! They are so juicy, made perfectly and taste amazing. You must get one. The ice cream, oh the ice cream, I dream of it. The first time we went I got the Grasshopper (mint chip and cookies)...amazing. The second time we went we got the Cookie Monster (blue ice cream with cookie dough and oreos). My mouth is watering just typing this. The blue ice cream left our mouths entirely blue but who cares. It's all homemade, incredible, best I've had. GO HERE!
