Walked 6 blocks to get there. We arrived at about 9:30 pm on a Saturday. Tons of people in the street. Restaurant has its hour posted on Yelp as being OPEN until midnight on Saturday's. There was a small line of people arriving as we were trying to sort out what the status was. The place was CLOSED. It looks as though it is OUT OF BUSINESS.

It is hard to give this place one star, since after spending $5 to park, walking 3 blocks at 1PM on Wednesday in heat; the place was closed. Looking at hour sign on door--it was supposed to be open. Three grandchildren were very disappointed. While standing outside locked door, I Googled the place and it said "open". Make sure open before you go.

Hidden Gems Ice Cream really is a hidden gem. When you walk into the store, you immediately get the vibe that you'll be purchasing illegal mushrooms, LSD or acid. The funky vibes aside, the ice cream is out of this world and some of the best I've ever had. 10/10 recommend.

I was visiting my friend in Denver because she just moved in the area...We decided to walk around and "explore" and saw this ice cream place...we didn't read any reviews or see any social media posts about Hidden Gems beforehand, so this was completely random and new to us. The place was small and had a super cute interior with limited seating inside, but ample seating outside. My ice cream was so good...of course it's just Vanilla ice cream with cereal like some old guy was saying in another review who also took a cheap shot at Millennials and Gen Z-ers...yes, old man, I'm a Millenial and loved my apple jacks and mango drizzle! But to each his/her own. I would definitely stop by here again when I visit next time...actually, I was tempted to go again before catching my flight back to Cali

Beautiful little bakery, seemingly specializing in doughnuts and macarons. Both of which are delectable. And the Alice in Wonderland themed decor inside is just so much fun!

In a nutshell, I seriously don't get the hype. Here's my rundown: Customer service = 5 stars. The two staffers there were welcoming and friendly. I always appreciate seeing people genuinely care and enjoy doing what they do. Product = 3 stars: I am not oversimplifying things when I say that it's just plain vanilla and chocolate soft-serve ice cream...with cereal...and syrup. Of course, it's the waffle cone garnishes that elevate the presentation and make it more "sophistimacated". Price/value = 1 star: For three (3) three small servings, the damage was $27 (20% tip included for great service). To be honest, I can't say this place qualifies as a "hidden gem" in Larmier Square. All you bougie Millenials and Gen Z'ers enjoy. This grumpy old codger will stick to 31 flavors.

Located in Larimer square, this is a creative, artistic gourmet bakery! The walls and ceiling are decorated in an Alice in Wonderland theme. Tables and chairs suspended from the ceiling. Featuring high end flavored donuts, which are paired with their donut holes! They also sell beautifully crafted macarons, which I did not taste on this visit.We tried their blueberry donut, which was a thick glazed donut and blueberry frosting. I also recommend their chocolate donut, fluffy and sweet. I am guessing that these are treats inspired by Alice’s tea party with the Mad Hatter!

Cute little shop next to the ice cream spot. Very excellent macarons. Awesome vibes and beautiful store.
Beautifully decorated store! Very unfortunate that all they had available were a few stale macarons at $26 for 6.. won’t be returning.

I love everything about this place. They certainly earned their name. The ice cream is just as unique as the business. From encrypted walls to the hidden room...it's all too cool. The ice cream was absolutely delicious. I would highly recommend this place. .

Cute little soft serve shop in Larimer Square. Great service, fun atmosphere, tasty ice cream! We stopped in after dinner for a little treat we could eat on a stroll. Made our night!

Okay.... This is my new favorite ice cream spot in Denver. Concept: ice cream with cereal mix-in and creamy topping of choice. Result: happy stomach & epitome of deliciousness! It's a small shop with limited seating, but I hope it sticks around bc what they've got is a good little secret that I hope becomes more well-known! It's making me drool just thinking about it! Get your sugar fix here!

Arrived near closing, but they were friendly and helpful. Loved the style/theme of the shop too. My husband got vanilla with Heath bar, Oreo, and caramel-definitely our favorite. Chocolate with Oreo was still good too.
