The one that only locally grown locally raised locally licked clean bowls . Every time a new flavor up on the board I have not had a bad one I've had over half of these choices I just had the cherry and vanilla phenomenal. I got a pint of grapefruit sorbet holy moly.

Pumphouse is a long time contributor to the Twin Cities ice cream scene, which has evolved significantly since my arrival in 2015. This is a humble ice cream shop. In fact, the outdoor overhead neon sign is simply an adorable ice cream cone. Further, there are no gimmicks or dazzles, or other such overt Instagram bait, unlike other parlors, past and present, in our metropolis. What you get instead is honest to goodness neighborhoodly deliciousness. Many times, you get locally sourced ingredients and inspiration, but not always - there are some truly creative and wordy flavors that make their appearance here. And it's all from scratch. A pet peeve of mine is a shop that charges a premium for a mass waffle produced cone. Not the case here - in fact, this is the most unique and delicious cone I've ever come across. Made from heirloom and whole grains, it's not one you'll forget. The owner is down to earth and the ice cream descriptions convey a dedication to craft.Pumphouse also serves sipping chocolate, an elegant, thick, and luscious sibling of hot chocolate. I greatly enjoyed my latest cup, my only trouble being that many of the ice cream flavors were so tantalizing the desire hijacked my brain, so I couldn't fully focus on enjoying my sipping chocolate.On top of all this, the prices are reasonable. In fact, Pumphouse isn't a contributor to our city's ice cream scene: they're a backbone.

One of my favorite ice cream places in the cities! It’s a good one for vegan ice cream - there are an assortment of vegan flavors that are just as good as the dairy ice cream. Pumphouse also uses local and sustainable ingredients and everything is reasonably priced.Dietary restrictions: There are always tasty vegan options.

Best local creamery in the twin cities. Pump house has unreal flavors that are made the very best local soured ingredients and churned fresh. Typically there are 8-10 flavors at a time but I have never tried so many delicious flavors that are unique to many creameries. Reminds me of a gourmet brewer or barista but focused solely on unbelievable ice cream. I've been to 80 plus gourmet creameries and their min chip is the best I have ever had. It's a bit pricier and portions aren't huge but you get what you pay for! Nice job pumphouse team

What a lovely ice cream shop. The owner, Barb, was behind the counter the Saturday evening we stopped in. Great selection of flavors, including some solid vegan flavors. The cinnamon and mint chocolate chip were both delicious. The ice cream was rich and flavorful, without being overly sweet/sugary. Really reasonable prices and everything is locally sourced. Looking forward to visiting again!
