Bonnie Brae Ice Cream

Friendly nice! Helpful they have a train that goes around the whole store! The owner took us in the back and showed us around. They gave us free ice cream samples and made us feel welcome (; they also honor free ice cream chips you get at the library ect. Definitely will be coming back sinful cinnamon was my favorite flavor! Go check them out (;

Yum AND wow! Excellent customer service. And WALTER was a vibe for sure! He was kind, awesome AND clearly understood the assignment. I had walked about 4 miles first time in an ice cream shop in Denver so I decided to treat myself. Literally stumbled across this great place with excellent customer service. In order to protect my stomach I decided to get a vegan vanilla ice cream. It was the BEST ever! If you’re looking for a place to hang out for a few moments with cool people. And the best ice cream ever this is your place! And for whatever it’s worth everybody has like the best hair lol. But of course they have it pulled back far away from the ice cream.

The strawberry ice cream is a winner! Actually tastes like real strawberries. Scoops sizes are generous and the staff are lovely. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Grab a scoop and indulge while watching the world go by.

What a great place to go have ice cream. Gives you that an old time feeling of being back in the 1950’s. This is one of Colorado’s oldest ice cream shops. Make a point while visiting Denver to stop by in this local neighborhood ice cream shop.

My friends surprised me with a custom ice cream cake for my birthday! I’ve wanted a Bonnie Brae ice cream cake for YEARS, and it was well worth the wait. I highly recommend the Cappuccino Crunch with the Triple Death Chocolate. Their ice cream is always silky smooth and delivers flavors that are unparalleled by anyone else around. Will be making this my birthday tradition from now on!

Ice cream selection was pretty good and the staff are really fast. Downside-flavors are hand written and difficult to see when you’re standing in line. My waffle cone was so hard, I had to toss it 🍦lots of outside seating!

Great flavors and huge portions. We got the singing cinnamon, the triple chocolate and the cookies and cream. Nothing much to say but they were exactly what you picture and very tasty.

What an absolutely wonderful ice cream shop. The staff is great with as many free samples as you like which is important as they really push the envelope on fun flavors like Chocolate Cardomon, Blueberry Corbread and Salted Caramel Orea. Great way to cleanse your palate after any email. BTW portions were generous.

It's really hard to impress me when it comes to ice cream ... But this place Gosh Dayum !!! Hands down in the Top 3 I tried the Cappuccino Crunch ... And. I. Was. Addicted !!!!!!!! Coming back for sure !!! I want to try every flavor ... The staff was very kind and joyful , KUDOS ! Love the vibe of this place just brought a lot of positive energy .

*CELIAC / GLUTEN FREE REVIEW YUM! they did bring an allergen menu, but did not get a new scooper or scoop from the back when I went as the line was CRAZY long - however, my other celiac friend hadn't had any problems in the past so I went with her recommendations and did not get sick! I got the PB&J with the palisade peaches - so yummy and house made!

I had been meaning to try this place, and it did not disappoint! This is a local establishment with a classic ambiance. There's seating both inside and outside. Service is friendly. I like how this place has both kosher and vegan options, although it would be nice if there were a few more vegan options. You can get coffee here for 75 cents!! Or a coffee ice cream float! That's what I'll get next time :)

my FAVORITE (if I could bold and underline that I would) ice cream in Denver. better than little man! it has crowd pleasing flavors, smells like waffle cones and friendly service. easy street parking too! I'm from New Hampshire, the home of cute local ice cream stands, so I needed something that felt like home and this hit the spot.

Thee orio and cream is to die for! The strawbery icecream was also very good and not overly sweet. We came here on a Friday night and it was PACKED. Also really friendly staff. The decors and styles of this icecream parlor itself are worth a visit, not to mention their really delicious icecream.

Not sure how I've never reviewed Bonnie Brae. I love the nostalgia of the ice cream parlor and the friendly staff. I've tried a handful of their flavors but I always come back for their cappuccino crunch! It's one of my fav ice cream flavors in the metro!

New favorite ice cream shop in Denver. And we have tried a LOT. Staff was very kind to allow us to try as many flavors as want. From a gluten free perspective, there were a LOT of options. Personal faves: peanut butter chocolate chip and cappuccino crunch! Such a nostalgic ambiance, classic ice cream parlor vibes.

Small and usually pretty crowded ice cream shop that we were pretty lucky enough to find a seat inside. Lots of flavours to choose from, but if you're looking for sorbet, they only had one or two types available. They let us try a couple flavours and I ended up landing on my go-to which is mint chocolate chip. Solid ice cream shop. I would go back again as long as it isn't as busy as I've heard it can get!

Super busy, but worth the wait! Any time I've driven by, there is usually a line out the door. This was also the case when I decided to check them out and see what all the hype is for. WOW, this ice cream is delicious. I'm usually pretty picky; Bonnie Brae has something for everyone! They do have a rotating menu, so there's something new every time. Butter pecan is my favorite

It was awesome. Freshly made and inexpensive. The servers were friendly. All the flavors we tried were great. We'll be back!

Everything about this store is positive. There are many choices as well as toppings. This ice cream parlor continues to attract large crowds and a large following. It continues to win awards. It's prices are on the upper side, but the cost of ice cream everywhere has gone up over the past few years so really can't complain. There has been little change in the interior, but it is clean and inviting. The store continues to be one of the best ice cream parlors in Denver.

Immaculate vibes - our jaw dropped when we saw the prices. I got an "Itty Bitty" for $2.50 and was totally satisfied. They have a TON of cool flavors. I often hear the debate of Denver's best Ice Cream being between Little man's or Sweet Cows. I think Bonnie Brae gives both a run for their money. Incredibly fast service, fun music & a retro, family-friendly vibe.

We love picking up quarts here. Ice cream in classic flavors, as well as some funky options if you're in the mood for that. My husband is addicted to the Triple Death by Chocolate, and my son loves the Strawberry. I have a serious weakness for their butter brickle either a soft, intensely caramel streak running through the creamy vanilla base. Service is solid (especially when you can skip the scoop line and buy directly from the freezer like we do) and the ambiance is classic ice cream parlor, probably the same since they've opened. We are huge fans!

Have heard of this place since I was a kid, finally came for the first time; cute, but never have I ever received a cone where the single scoop wasn't taller than the cone or even ice cream out to the edge of the cone‽

--Sweet & flavorful selections --Scoop, cone & topping options --Fountain treats, drinks & sundaes --Free H2O station --Indoor & outdoor seating --Quick & attentive service --Clean restroom with baby changing station --Street & lot parking

Amazing ice cream. Every sample we've tried was amazing and extra creamy. We are from California but come to this ice cream shop whenever we are in town and the peppermint never disappoints. My sons said the cookie dough pieces are extra large. By far our favorite ice cream shop (wish we lived closer).

We needed an ice cream stop before our next family adventure. It's been a long time since I've been here. The service was great. This is a very cute ice cream shop. All the ice creams varies every time in addition to the common ones they typically have. The ice cream here is absolutely delicious. Looking for delicious ice cream? This is the place. Great for a hot day, dates, family treats, and just looking for something sweet. Love this place and will be coming back again.

We all loved the ice cream and the toppings...for instance, real HOT fudge. Enjoyed Reese's & Crème, Mint Chocolate Chip, Vanilla, and Chocolate Chip. Excellent ice cream and excellent service! Thank you. We'll be back!

I find a way back here over and over again! This is my favorite ice cream spot in Denver! The flavors are always changing and I always forget about some until they make a reappearance on the menu. But it's nice to always have a wide selection. Butter brickle is my favorite flavor! They have puppy ice cream sandwiches too (which my dog loves). It tastes like homemade ice creamery ice cream which is what you want. It's a chill old school vibe and aesthetic to the shop. A lot of people take their ice cream and sit outside on the benches or tables when the weather is nice. Mentally prepare for a long line in the summer months. It goes pretty quick for the length of line. Major key, get a quart or pint to go once you have your favorite flavor. It's more cost effective than multiple trips.

Classic neon lights, corner store , picnic tables and benches full of people enjoying an assortment of delicious homemade ice cream combinations. This is a quintessential ice cream joint and it gets everything right. Don't have a picture of the location as we got a pint and some waffle cones to go but man was this so good

This place is a core childhood memory of mine and my parents use to take me there when we first moved here from Japan. I always would get the same thing, Oreos and cream. Every time I walked by this place it always has that pleasant vanilla, caramel like scent and I think they also make their waffle cones fresh. I haven't been here in a long time, probably haven't been in like 10 years and decided to stop by, I really enjoyed it and it was super good and service was great. Place is clean and old school cool. The ice cream was creamy and every bite was dreamy!

Real Deal! Drive down University in the Summer and you'll know why. Lines down the block. Great assortment of flavors....some really unique and cool. Wonderful creamy flavorful ice cream. Great service. Try any of the flavors no problem. Fair prices. I might even come back in the winter!!!!!

Vegan flavors were Cinnamon & Oreo - so much better and yummier than other ice cream shops' typical vegan options! Highly recommend

If you're looking for a classic ice cream parlor experience, Bonnie Brae is the place! This iconic Denver spot not only has great homemade ice cream, but will give you a nostalgic feeling. Two of us split a double sundae which was plenty to share. We opted for classic vanilla scoops, but there were a variety of flavors I will be back to try! This is an order at the counter type of place, and the sundaes are not served in glass bowls. Nonetheless, you'll have a fun experience.

Even though I LOVE ice cream, I've never lived close to the legendary Bonnie Brae Ice Cream shop and therefore had never enjoyed their work previously. A hot weekday night prompted some adventure, and it checked every box, a great experience! Luckily, it was early evening, so the usual line had yet to form, and the service staff was full of warmth and assistance. They also had a good sense of humor, which led to an even more positive experience. They make their ice cream on-site, I selected a luscious cookies and cream option that was incredible. I Sat outside the store and had the whole experience, watching people continually go into the shop and come out smiling. Regrets for not visiting earlier, but this won't be the last time because driving 20 minutes takes calories, right?

HOLY CRAP! First off, the staff was friendly and quick. There was a decent line and kept the people moving while also being kind, providing samples, and really giving you value for money. The flavors of ice cream were unlike any I have seen and really shine! The Blueberry Cornbread sounds bizarre but LET ME TELL YOU IT WAS AMAZING! Truly one of the best ice cream flavors I have ever had!

I was very excited about this and it wasn't very expensive. However, we ended up having only about 10 bites of it. It didn't have a lot of flavor. The consistency wasn't great a little bit icy. Wouldn't necessarily come back but willing to give another chance maybe.

I got the salted Oreo which was delicious! Some might think it's too salty but I thought it was the right amount. Service was quick despite the line out the door. It gets pretty busy on a warm night so we didn't hang around.

Love the ice cream here. This is our go to place and lemon custard is my absolute favorite. Love their rotating flavors. Service is quick and great.

Nice Place, Like the ice cream and deco was cool looking, the food was pretty good, service was good to, most the staff was friendly, they worked very quickly

Definitely on my top 10 list of best ice cream places I've been to! I love Bonnie Brae: it has that old school ice cream parlor feel but updated and fun flavors. I couldn't resist a brownie sundae, and they do a good one here. The brownie itself is solid, and they have a good fudge. For flavors, the cookie dough and funfetti cookie dough are winners in my book: the key is that they make their own cookie dough, which makes a huge difference. I also loved their Oreos & Cream: probably some of the best C&C ice cream I've had because they use HUGE chunks of Oreos. The only flavor that was not good at all was the Triple Chocolate Death (shocking! It just had a weird aftertaste). Service was friendly and fast, and be aware that they do have a long line-even on a Thursday night! But it moved quickly and is so worth it.

Husband and I have been in Denver for 8 and 3 years respectively and yet either of us had never tried Bonnie Brae (shame)! We finally made it here and now I'm mad that we did not come here sooner. This retro place near cherry creek has probably one of the richer tasty ice creams I've had. Their lemon custard ice cream is just lovely. They're open late on weekends and just perfect for post dinner ice cream cravings. Parking can be an issue during busy hours but we found a spot fairly easily.

I can see why so many people love the ice cream here. So many fun choices, and the staff was very kind and allowed me to try a few different kinds before choosing. In the end, I got the Cinnamon ice cream, and the Triple chocolate. So good!!!!

This is a really great ice cream within close walking distance from a great area with lots of shops and restaurants. There was a line out the door on a Saturday night. The ice cream was worth it though and reasonably priced for Denver everything is made fresh there and was really flavorful. I loved the peppermint and black cherry flavors I got. They had seasonal fall flavors as well.

After getting dinner with some friends we all decided to grab some ice cream-- I've passed by this place many of times so, I was excited to try it. The outside & inside has all the old school ice cream parlor vibes. They were very busy when we walked in however, the staff was super nice and a welcoming as we looked over the menu/ice cream options-- they immediately offered tasters and assistance. They do have many interesting flavors so, it was nice to taste a couple before committing /making a decision. I went with cotton candy (if you like cotton candy, I highly recommend) Flavors good & kind customer service. My only recommendation would be more seating available especially on colder days.

I was dreaming about this place when I first tried their ice cream. I couldn't stop craving their cotton candy flavor and I wish it was a permanent flavor. Very cute little store, definitely worth a hype!

Always wonderful! Enjoy the selection of flavors, service, and atmosphere. One of the cleanest places around, well light and full of happy customers!. People enjoy

I have been coming here for 15 years and it is so close to my heart. My mom loves their triple death chocolate ice cream and I usually try their rotating flavors. Today I got their egg nog ice cream in a gluten free cone. I haven't seen an ice cream shop with gf cones before and it was so yummy!

Best ice cream I ever had. Simply delicious. Not too sweet, creamy but not heavy--just perfect.

Ice cream was creamy and a good size. It was a nice little novelty spot to hang out and just catch up. They had ample tables and benches but too many people to accommodate. We had a bit of a wait but as expected since it's pretty popular.

The best ice cream in Colorado. Always new fun flavors, the best service and a great old fashioned vibe. Piper makes the best banana spit on planet earth!

One of BEST ice cream spots I've been to in Denver! To be fair, I don't live in Denver, but have tried a decent amount of ice cream places while visiting. They were busy at 3pm on a Sunday in January, but it was actually nice and sunny out that day. It was only a short line, and we were in an out in 5 minutes. You can't go inside right now, and you have to place your order at their takeout window. It was difficult to communicate through the window, and I had to repeat my order a few times for them to hear me. Not sure if there was an issue with the speaker at the window I was at (far left), but hope this is improved for future customers. They had SO many flavors available (at least 30), and it was difficult to decide what to get. We finally went with more classic flavors, and had no regrets. The Malted Milk Ball (Pint/$6.50) and Oreos n' Cream (Pint/$6.50) [https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=eEijw9Z3J3FZk3owufYQvg&userid=76vIFZcC7owykCBjMfGVXg] were both awesome! The Oreos n' Cream was my favorite out of the two, and a must try for any oreo lover. I loved that their ice cream was thick, but smooth and creamy, and they didn't skimp on the Oreos. The malted milk ball was also really good, and packed with malted milk balls- recommended! I will definitely be back to try more of their ice creams, and their pineapple pistachio is at the top of my list. No indoor seating was available, but they had some tables for outdoor seating. All staff were wearing masks correctly, and they had hand sanitizer. Parking will be the most challenging part about coming here since street parking is available, but limited.

Hello. Ice cream is yummy. Only one bathroom. 5 stars. Hello. Ice cream is yummy. Only one bathroom. 5 stars. Hello. Ice cream is yummy. Only one bathroom. 5 stars.

Even though the line was out the door, it went by super fast. There was a good amount of workers that kept everything moving. The little shop has a really nice and cute vibe. Finally, the ice cream list was huge, I got the cherry root beer and... IT WAS SOOOO GOOD AND CREAMY! 100/10 would recommend!

An amazing ice cream shop! They have gluten free cones and yummy ice cream. The spot is so nice to go to after going on a walk at Wash Park! It is the best! The service was so kind and quick!

From the location to the atmosphere, this feels like what most ice cream shops would aspire to be. Hard to top it.

My first time trying ice cream from here and I loved it! They had a long lineup out the door and down the street yet the staff were so friendly and helpful and still allowed for samples. There were ample flavors to choose from and I appreciated that waffle cones were included in prices. I went with lemon blueberry which was refreshing and butter brickle which had toffee like pieces and was super sweet. I would recommend either. I sampled the lemon custard as well which I found wasn't as flavorful and the blueberry cheesecake which had nice cheesecake pieces. Scoops were a fair sized and there was a good amount of seating outside. Parking lot next door is for liquor store only so street parking in the neighborhood is the way to go but there seemed to be enough spots within less than a 5 min walk.

The best ice cream I've had in the area. So many interesting flavors and upon walking in you're asked if you'd like to try any of them - heck yes! I got a cup of 3 scoops (Mint Choc Chip, Dulce de Leche, and salted Oreo) and they all were delicious! Super creamy and perfectly sweet. Mint choc is one of my faves and they put in a nice portion of thick chocolate chunks. The line can get a little long and it's a bit more on the pricey side, but the quality is excellent.

Super creamy, wonderfully delicious ice cream. Sample what you like, no judgement, then get a couple scoops. So good!! Worth every penny to enjoy some made fresh daily ice cream using premium ingredients. You will not be disappointed with the selection of flavors. Fantastic!!
