High Point Creamery

Really chill vibes and sweet servers make this a great summery spot destination for fun weekend memory making. But I have to note it’s not an inclusive experience for those with dietary restrictions such as lupus or diabetes, which is a shame. How hard is it to add some sugar free flavors into the lineup? This is CO after all—a pretty health conscious state on the whole. Sadly half of my family can’t partake, so we won’t be back again.

WOW. Wowowow. The latest scoop is as follows: they *do allow samples, they *are friendly, and the ice cream *is amazing, reasonably priced, and beautiful. We got a flight for $10.99 before tax! 5 flavors with scoop sizes the same as a “single scoop”, generously topped off. **update July 2024: the price has gone up to $12.99 for a flight; still a decent deal** The basil blackberry has *basil*, let me tell you—we could taste it so clearly and refreshingly. What a fantastic flavor for a rich cream!! Melts quickly! But goes quickly too~ No wonder this is a signature and a classic. Blueberry lemon was delightfully tart and yet delicately sweet. Love the sour that shows this ice cream creator is not afraid of bold citrus and leaning into the lemon. And no “ribbons” of some sort of lemon gel either! Fully incorporated and luscious. Babka with olive oil was creamy and rich and smooth (and you get lucky if there are some pastry chunks in there). A very simple vanilla base that made us curious about their Tahitian vanilla. Chocolate with orange and marshmallow was a bit citrus-y, but we wished for more orange than there was! The chocolate was rich, and we would definitely give it another try, but it doesn’t make the top three for the flight. Pistachio and tin rum (or whatever the alcohol name was haha) was fine, but the pistachios were hard to detect. As hardcore pistachio lovers, we were disappointed. Still, if we weren’t told that they were there, we would’ve thought this was a very successful flavor! Creamy and well mixed, sweet and slightly like toffee in flavor. Very delicious with a vanilla base. Between this and the Babka, babka is better but both are solid options. Bavarian Creme and Brioche: nice and creamy and thick. The brioche was a little tough and stiff mixed into the ice cream, but the richness of the vanilla base was soooo delightful. Earl grey and shortbread: excellent! A delightful tea aftertaste. Round and full-bodied and slightly savory. It definitely tastes like tea. To be honest, I couldn’t detect shortbread, but I really appreciated the tea. Coffee: certainly a quiet stand out. The coffee is so full and nutty and gorgeous tasting. It is truly a coffee ice cream. No bitterness, but the edge is just creamy and woody and yummy. And the unexpected star of the show: their caramel sauce. WOW. We ate it *straight*, and we usually don’t like to add a sauce to ice cream at all, period. It is slightly Smokey tasting, and it has a delicious sweetness that is balanced with roasted nuttiness. We were just so so pleased with it. The flight is well worth the price and the little drive out. Come, try!!! And don’t be surprised if it’s a little too much ice cream for two people 😂

The mint chocolate bark ice cream is the freshest ice cream I’ve ever had. Such a natural mint flavor definitely unique! My son however was not a fan said “tastes like mint from the garden” lol. So the two gentlemen that were working were happy to help us out and get him something he liked! Thanks for the hospitality!

EDIT JULY 4TH 2025. I don't know if this is a different location than what I was at before. They now use cute little metal spoons for tasting. I LOVE little spoons. I bought one for $2. I also got the blackberry basil ice cream thay was amazing.......... This was hard to rate. The young girl working was awesome. I tried several samples I was thrown off by the wooden spoons. I am used to plastic sample spoons in most places and the wood really through me for a loop. I really think that it changes the flavor. All that being said I ended up with a single scoop of the Chai Tea in a waffle cone. While most of the flavors I tried had a very subtle flavor the Chai was bursting with flavor. The way ice cream should be. The waffle cone was fantastic. It was crunchy and had a subtle sweet flavor. This is the way it should be. The Chai Tea ice cream stood out in flavor with the waffle cone. So while this flavor was an absolute ⛤⛤⛤⛤⛤ the others I tasted were not as flavorful hence the 3 star rating. The sign in the bathroom is great. I posted a picture of it.

A truly unique ice cream experience. I came here with a few friends, and we were all taken back by how many distinctly unique ice cream flavors they had. I guess we were not the first group to have issues choosing flavors, as they offer an ice cream flight option. I’m familiar with the concept of beer or wine flights, but I’ve never been a participant in an ice cream flight. The presentation was outstanding and the flavors were amazingly complex. I’d say my favorite flavor was their cookies n’ cream which was outstanding! Next time I go back I’ll need a full order of that to myself. That being said, their earl grey tea, coconut creme brûlée, and peppermint were all incredibly delicious as well. This place knows ice cream, and if you are looking for a sweet treat then this place is a must! Keep up the great work and distinct flavors!

I had heard about this place from social media. This creamery did not disappoint! I had selected the Tin Cup Whiskey and Brown Butter Pecan. They both had a very creamy texture. The right amount of sweetness. Their own very distinct flavors. If you love ice cream, this is a must try destination.

This ice cream is amazing. We had the Tin Cup Whiskey and Pistachio Brittle ice cream and watermelon Sorbet. Both Delicious.

The best ice cream in Denver. Everything I ever have is amazing, from the Tin Cup Whiskey Brittle to the Salty Dog chocolate to the fabulous brown sugar cinnamon. Lots of great seasonal flavors too that try fun combinations. Plus, you can grab pints for home. Love this place.

After getting brunch next door at Call Your Mother, we had dessert at High Point Creamery. This place reminds me a lot of Salt and Straw in Portland because of their flavors. Our daughter has an egg allergy so it's great that none of their ice creams have egg, although we are also still looking out for nuts and peanuts. Mexican Hot Chocolate ice cream tasted exactly what I thought it would with notes of cinnamon. Strawberry ice cream - I'm really not into fruit-flavored ice creams, but this was good. Definitely way better than getting strawberry ice cream from a carton at a grocery store. Great service, not too busy upon opening on a weekend. If I had room, I'd do an ice cream flight and I'm impressed that they make ice cream bombes here. I'd totally love one if we were local.

I had a scoop of the Apple Butter and Toast special fall flavor it was divine. It's not super sweet, which meant I could really savor the Apple butter flavor. Absolutely recommend. Love local places like this; and it's queer-friendly. ‍‍

Delicious ice cream with unique flavors! We couldn't decide on what flavors to get so we ended up doing a flight which was fun. All the flavors were good. The flight came with a chocolate sauce that I did not enjoy. Not a lot of seating inside but there was a nice patio area to sit outside. Not the friendliest service but we did come 30 minutes prior to closing. Overall would definitely recommend

The ice cream has a flavor that tastes more like actual food than any other I have had. The service was helpful and honest. The shop was cute with very clean bathrooms.

Stopped here while I was in Colorado for with some friends for a wedding. My husband and I split an ice cream flight. It was the perfect treat for a hot day out in Denver. There was plenty of street parking, tables both outside and inside to sit down at. The staff were friendly and patient, the inside was very clean, a little smaller inside but overall a nice place to go to for a treat.

Good and solid ice cream! The flavors are a variation of their classics and interesting mixes. Their pints are always easy to take home. Their tin cup whiskey ice cream is so delicious. They have various locations and it is always super relaxed and vibey and casual. The staff is super friendly too!

Solid Ice cream. Everything tasted great, and the staff were so nice and gave big samples. Side note(not food related): one of the staff was very sweet. She went outside to donate some money during her shift to someone in need and came out to talk to him. Second time coming here, sad they didn't have pineapple mint sorbet this time around. But the flavors that I did get was great. Got the sampler, everything tasted great and everything was creamy and smooth. Overall 8-9/10. Favorite flavors was the mint and the coffee. blueberry lemon brown butter pecan coffee bean early grey mint chocolate Price point was great for the amount of icecream we had. Even came with a dipping sauce, choice of cholate or caramel which is always fun. And they have little waffle cone chips added which were also delicious.

I don't give many 5 star reviews but this may be the best ice cream I have had in Denver yet! The women hind the counter was very friendly and patient as we tried a few samples before deciding on the basil berry, Tin cup whiskey pistachio brittle, earl grey vanilla. By far the time cup brittle was the best and one which we will be returning for! I could have eaten a pint of it!

4.99 for a small scoop is pretty standard around Denver. You are able to taste a variety of flavors before choosing one. High Point creamery also offers shakes and bombes. They have a wide variety of flavors. I ended up getting the red velvet ice cream, which after i got it I was disappointed by the small amount of red velvet cake in the scoop. It was mostly vanilla ice cream. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

After all these years... how have I not written a review? Well, here we go! Tonight, my sisters, Nathaniel, and I decided that tonight was perfect weather to get some ice cream. A little chilly, rainy night obviously means ice cream party, right? Right. I ALWAYS (I mean always) get a scoop of their earl grey & shortbread cookies. And a flight (five scoops and a sauce) for whoever ventures in with me seems pretty standard. Plus, it's only about $10-$12 for a flight? What. A. Steal. Hehe, I have a little sugar rush but it's probably mixed with a lot of bliss to because if you know you know. You can also get pints of their ice cream to go-go too. One for now, one for later. Thanks Nathan for tonight's treat. And thank you more to High Point Creamery for being consistent with my fave even after all this time.

When I decided to try this place, they were not in the past shape, with a dysfunctional cooler leaking water out the door, and apparently a reduced flavor selection from the remaining cooler as a result. Moreover, the flavors they had were not the ones I wanted off the menu. But I didn't have time to go roaming around looking for an ice cream shop in a better state of repair, so I gave them a shot. The upside was that I did get to try a vegan coconut-based flavor, which delivered the slightly burned taste of creme brûlée that it promised. I'm not a huge coconut person, but this one was better than most coconut creams I've had. The basil blackberry swirl delivered some intrigue from the clash. The other real thing I had against them was the no samples policy, which makes things a bit tough given their unconventional flavors. It was a nice upscale creamery and I liked what I got; maybe on a better day they'd get the full five stars from me.

They offer two non-dairy options, both with coconut. I had the coconut creme brulee. Very good! I like how their tasting spoons aren't plastic--better for the environment. This shop is within the Denver central market.

The brown sugar cinnamon is AMAZING!!! Will definitely be back for more! Tell your friends!

Such fun, creative flavors! I love that they offer ice cream flights, which includes your choice of five scoops, waffle cone crisps, and one syrup (which honestly, the ice cream doesn't need!). The ice cream is wonderfully creamy and smooth, and the flavor options are fun and delicious. My favorites were the early grey & shortbread and the basil with blackberry swirl. The basil might not be for everyone (very strong basil flavor, so it can be a bit savory), but I personally really enjoyed the combo with blackberry!

The ice cream is good. Place is clean. The service is awful. The person who I bought five pints from seemed annoyed that I didn't make my choices quickly (a little of sighs and curt responses when I asked questions about the flavors) and then when I asked for a bag (because I cannot grip the cup carrier she originally smashed the pints into) she threw the pints into the bag hitting the ones in the bag with the next ones. She did it so hard the lids split and I had a leaky melty mess by the time I got home. I didn't mind the increased cost because the quality was pretty good but after being treated that way I get the hint "not welcome".

Ever go to an ice cream shop and get so overwhelmed with all the choices you get a mini panic attack? Well no need for the panic attacks anymore, because this spot has ICE CREAM FLIGHTS!!! 5 Flavors, 2 Waffle Chips & 1 Dipping Sauce! (& I promise the scoops are NOT small lol) I got an assortment of flavors but my favorites by far are the Basil w/ Blackberry Swirl, Blueberry Lemon, & Peach Cobbler. To be completely honest, I did not use the dipping sauce at all! All the choices have such a rich flavor it seems like a crime to add anything to it!

Top notch ice cream in Denver with creative flavors. I especially love their brown sugar cinnamon and tin whiskey pistachio flavors. Make sure to get their "flight" so you can try 5 flavors. I do wish you could sample before buying though.

I love getting ice cream everywhere I visit. When I saw that they have flights at high point creamery, I was sold in coming here. This one is inside Denver central market. There are plenty of other shops and restaurants in here. The line was a bit long on this Sunday afternoon, but it moved rather quickly. My friend and I split a flight (which comes with 5 flavors and a sauce). We got basil with blackberry swirl, brown sugar cinnamon,earl grey with shortbread cookies, chocolate coconut (v) and the fudge. It also came with a few piece of wafer. All the flavors were delicious. They are creamy and decadent. My least favorite is the basil blackberry swirl. It tastes like a pizza because the basil was too over powering. My favorite is the earl grey with cookies. I love the subtle of ear grey and the crunch of the cookies with each bite. The chocolate coconut was nice despite being vegan. And the fudge was gooey and warm. All in all, I love craft ice cream places like this. The only down side is no tasting right now and the girl that took my order made me feel like I was an inconvenience. Otherwise, stop here for some ice cream!

Caramel was burnt. Violet and lime is just bad. Whiskey one is tolerable. Won't be back.

Great little ice cream shop. Customer service (Seth) was amazing, prices were low and we left with full tummies! By the time we left the line was out the door so we must have found a hidden gem!

Why aren't ice cream flights a thing at every ice cream shop!? I will definitely be back each time I visit Denver - all the flavors were mouth watering. Although I could probably finish a flight by myself for dinner, it's a perfect size to share with a friend! The brown sugar cinnamon was my favorite!

// Summary Lots of creative and traditional flavors to satisfy your ice cream fix. // Experience I ordered 2 scoops in a cup, horchata and coffee. The coffee was pretty good, but the horchata didn't hit right for me. I ended up not finishing that one and tossing it after finishing the coffee. The texture of both was pleasantly creamy. // Service The server was nice and friendly. Unfortunately and understandably, during the times of COVID, you can't get samples. // Ambiance A small ice cream shop with limited seating both indoors and outdoors. Pretty straightforward, nothing to it that necessarily enhances or detracts from your experience. // Convenience Pretty easy to get to. There seems to be accessible street parking around the neighborhood. It's close by a couple of other restaurants in case you want to grab a meal before heading here.

Best ice cream in Denver! You must get a flight! So much fun and a great way to taste several flavors.

Love that they have such unique flavors. When they first opened they didn't have coffee and pastries but they do now. I haven't tried them yet though. My favorite flavor of ice cream is the Earl Grey and Shortbread. My next favorite is the cornbread and strawberry (not always available for single serving) can get some of the flavors at Whole Foods. All their ice creams are kosher too!

High Point Creamery has some very unique flavors. I really wanted to go here for the basil blackberry flavor, because those are some of my favorite flavors. I must say, I probably would not order it again. It was good, very true to the individual flavors, but just kind of a weird concept for ice cream. To be fair, we had also just finished a salad that was heavy on the basil for dinner beforehand so that could have also played a role. I also got a scoop of the salty dog, which was very tasty! It was like a mix of brownie batter and fudge sickles. My boyfriend got the 3 cookies and cream and was a big fan. Also well priced!

Really fun atmosphere, delicious ice cream, served by friendly staff. The coffee bean ice cream was so good it reminded me of coffee brewing first thing in the morning!

This is the best ice cream ever! The flavors are amazing and the staff wonderful. The Flight with the homemade caramel sauce is a must have if you are with a friend!!!

We come here often after taking my 5yr old to Kitredge Park. I love the Earl Grey & Shortbread cookie icecream. Amazing.

Nice space to hang out in but even better seating outside. Good flavor selections and ice cream has a slightly denser texture than other places. Also had the affogato with their Coconut Creme Brulee ice cream - it was a big serving but also big flavor.

Best ice cream in Virginia Village by far. So delicious, fun flavors and the staff is always delightful. Can't wait to go back.

This was literally the only dessert place on my Denver list - and it did not disappoint! We went on a Sunday night and there were customers coming in until they closed! Definitely made a smart choice by getting the flight of ice cream - 5 flavors with one syrup. It allowed us to try many of their flavors! Each flavor was creamy and rich and chock full of flavor! We tried the Salted caramel Tin cup whiskey with pistachio brittle Salty dog chocolate , Earl grey shortbread And Coconut creme brûlée. I wish they had their Basil and blackberry swirl, but I guess that'll have to wait for the next trip! The flight set us back about $10 but it was the best deal for the $! Only issue I'd have to say is that I wasn't a fan of the syrup as it doesn't add to the wonderful flavors ... but it's definitely made the chocolate ice cream chocolatier! Would highly recommend!

4.99 for a small seemed pretty standard for ice cream. they let you taste whatever you want and give you nice silver spoons to taste. i got the brown butter pecan which tastes actually like pistachio and pecan lol the worker confirmed that! nonetheless it was great to enjoy while watching the world cup on the projector. :)

Free parking behind the creamery. Takes both cash and credit card. This place is a good spot to grab ice cream and socialize with friends. We ordered their basil ice cream and their coffee bean ice cream. Both flavors are good. The staff here are friendly and will provide you with free samples to help you decide what ice cream to order. The lines here moves very fast and you can get out of the store quickly to your next destination. This shop is located next to a burger shop so its a great place to grab dessert afterwards.

My wife and I love finding local eateries, and High Point Creamery doesn't disappoint! They have unique flavors and texture is very creamy. Tin cup whiskey with pistachio brittle and cookies and cream were our favorite. If you want a variety of ice cream to eat, then order The Flight (5 types of ice cream with choice of sauce). They have happy hour M-Th, 5PM-7PM, $7 flights.

If you ever find yourself in the area of High Point Creamery in Glendale be sure to stop by and grab you a scoop or two or three! The service was phenomenal and the flavors were nothing short of amazing. My friend ordered the basil and I ordered the dark chocolate! Do walk run.. Literally to burn your calories before hand . You will not be disappointed!

My sister put me on to this place!! I've had some decent indy ice cream, in my time. Salt/Straw, McConnells, Fosselman's, etc... This place is as good as it gets. I love a fun flavor (which they have plenty to offer) but I basically finished the whole pint of the Brown Butter Pecan. Regarding flavors, less is more in my opinion. So Good!!! Great service, and a great product. Support your local Denver ice cream shoppe. High Point is the spot!!

This was my last stop in Colorado before heading out and boy did it not disappoint! It's a nice little ice cream shop right next to a coffee shop. My friend came in with the intention of getting a flight because there was so many flavors that we wanted to try as well as we thought the flight would be small enough to share between the two of us. We were wrong about the second part, each scoop was regular kid size scoop and we struggle to finished it. The flavors we got include: Beets + brittle - yummy beet flavor with some crunch Basil + blackberry swirl - good flavor, wish there was a crunch Earl grey + shortbread cookie - strong Earl grey flavor Juniper + honey cake - my favorite, not too sweet, nice crunch Tin cup whiskey + pistachio brittle - strong alcohol flavor, on the sweeter side because there's caramel. Overall, very good ice cream, you can get a sauce to go with it but I feel like it will detract from the flavor. We opt out of it and the cashier was nice enough to give us a small discount for not getting the sauce. Parking can be a little tricky. The other thing was that there was some flavor that I wanted to try but was only available in pint.

Best ice cream in town!! Love that they have deals but then I end up buying four pints!!

Fun flavors! This is my mom's favorite gelato place since she loves chocolate. I'm personally more of a nut-flavored gelato person. They mainly have chocolate and fruit flavored gelatos. The whiskey pecan one was good with lots of nuts as was the brown sugar cinnamon. My mom and husband loved the chocolate spicy brownie but where less impressed by the chocolate orange marshmallow. Overall fun flavors so worth going in. Keep in mind they do not allow samples. Pints are $7 and the most affordable option if you know you like a flavor.

I went with a friend who insisted this was the best spot for ice cream in Denver & I instantly agreed. It's a cute area with limited parking and we went on a Friday early evening so finding street parking near by took a minute but that is quite common. As soon as we walked in the smell of waffle cone met our senses. The young man and woman working were incredibly helpful and friendly. High Point is not currently doing samples, but they did an excellent job making suggestions and describing things for us. My friend got an ice cream flight and I got a milkshake made of their mint chip ice cream and their cookies and cream. Both were delicious!!! I love mint chocolate chip ice cream and it's almost always my choice when ice cream is involved but this mint chocolate chip is different than any other I've ever had-- you can taste the freshness of real mint as you're eating it and it is incredible!! I'll definitely be returning whenever the craving for fancy ice cream with friends strikes!

Super quaint ice cream shop on Tennyson. They always have great flavors and it gives all the small-town vibes.

Super yummy ice cream with unique flavors that are all delicious, got the flight which includes 5 scoops and a sauce for only $10, such a good deal! A little annoying that they aren't doing samples. Their whipped cream tastes like vanilla frosting but in whipped cream form!

I was holding off on this review, why? Because that means I have to think back to the flavor explosion in my mouth last week and can't do anything about it. Give me a moment to compose myself. ::cries in fetal position:: High Point was THE highlight of my trip to Denver. It's not your typical ice cream it's long, hard hours put into the perfect flavor combinations. It's trial and error of making those combinations work. It's using rich, quality ingredients that blows competition out of the park. They've thought long and hard about what patrons will do in the event they can't choose one, two or three flavors so they created the ice cream flight. ::cue the angels:: The flight allows you to choose a whopping five flavors and a syrup of your choice. You also get two pieces of waffle cone. This is luckily a cost effective way to try multiple flavors as it's a fraction of the cost of 5 kiddie scoops. Win-win! Go during happy hour for even more savings. The employee was very sweet and allowed everyone to try as many flavors as was necessary to find your favorites. Special s/o to early grays and short bread, brown sugar cinnamon, apple pie crisp and chai gingerbread. They deliver and cater! I know who I'm calling for my wedding! Please, please, please make this a stop on your trip. You absolutely won't regret it!

We love this ice cream place! We go ahead and get the sampler so we can all share and it's perfect for a family still a little full from dinner next door. I also get their pints to go and I have never been disappointed. I particularly enjoy the Earl Grey and Shortbread, the Basil Blackberry, and the Mint Chocolate Chip. If they have the Chocolate Orange, I also love that! Highly Recommend!

Pros: Creative flavor combos Super friendly people working there Great prices Outdoor seating Cons: Ice cream wasn't flavorful enough - very subtle/muted Blueberry lemon tasted only like lemon despite pretty purple color. Basil with blackberry tasted like a pizza - I would definitely recommend against this one. Favorite flavors: brown sugar cinnamon, salty dog chocolate

One of the best ice cream shops in town! It's not the cheapest ice cream, but it's worth every penny. Tin Cup Whiskey for life!!

I had brown butter pecan, horchata, and a cinnamon of some kind. I asked for hot fudge - they had run out. What ice cream place runs out of hot fudge? Anyway, the cinnamon was one really good. 4-5 stars. The orchata was really average. I've had other orchata ice cream before that was much better. The brown butter pecan tasted strongly of almandine or maraschino cherry (I can't tell the difference, sorry.) So much I couldn't eat it. Wife confirmed that it wasn't just me. That's not what brown butter pecan should taste like. Would try again once they let you sample again, but not until then and not until i know they have all their ingredients!

Had this delivered to our hotel as part of our attempt to try a new ice cream place every day on our trip. This was middle of the pack. We had 4 pints delivered. We got basil blackberry which was great, brown butter pecan, mint choc bark & vegan brulee one. Mint was the fave but we all agreed $40 was crazy for what we got.

My first time. Was taken there by someone who had been. Won't be back to this one. The ice cream was good. Quite a few flavors to choose from. Most were unique. And that is where the problem began. The lady helping us -and we were the only ones there at the time, was unpleasant and made what could have been a fun experience...not. We took very small taste samples and were building a flight of ice cream, which is 5 mini scoops of ice cream. We had tried a few samples and picked 4 out of 5, and asked to try one more to finalize our flight and were told that their was a limit on samples. So my final choice was a "hope we like it" choice. Which unfortunately, I didn't. To me, if you have unique flavors you should be ok with people sampling. They had a spumoni that didn't taste like traditional Spumoni. I wouldn't have known had I not been able to sample it. To add to this, the flight comes with one sauce, which she didn't offer. It's too bad. I would recommend the ice cream but go to another High Point Creamery.
