Love Creamery Canal Park — Restaurant in Duluth

Worst coldest “hot” coffee on the entire planet. Coffee heat index (or cold in this case) was the least hot coffee in the history of ever. Especially when it’s winter in Minnesota. I went with 3 others and we were all left defeated, unhappy, and let down.

I ordered let’s say a cafe latte for review purposes, whatever coffee I ordered was on the menu. When ordered they asked me at least 5 if not 10 questions on how I works like my coffee. I believe one of the questions at one point literally was just some broad question similar to “ how would you like your coffee” the level of unintelligence in regards to the questions they “interrogated” and bombarded me with left me so exhausted lol. After getting my “coffee” it was colder then the ice cream they serve! I asked my wife to go up and ask for a cup of scolding hot water so I can add it to my cold coffee. She’s a sweetheart and was talking with the employees, but she has no backbone. So after her talking to the friendly employee I got up to handle it. I asked the employee for scalding hot water in a cup. Simple enough right. The employee literally asked “do you want it hot or like hot hot” like It’s freezing and snowing. I would like to warm up with a hot hot hot hot hot hot coffee. Fuq sake. The coffee could have been hotter in case you didn’t catch that.

So upset I spent 1 hour looking this place up on Google maps to...

The line and the wait is ultra long, especially if you come during peak season. I waited in line for about 25 minutes and there were probably 15-20 people ahead of me in line. Not bad when you think about it being 1 minute per person to order, scoop, and pay. It’s just tough when we are such a instant gratification society with a short attention span and patience tolerance. However, the space is decorated well and there is plenty of opportunity to grab a photo for social media and get off your phone to admire the surroundings. I do think they could do better with putting a photo of their offerings with the names below it at the very front of the door. This would allow people to have their flavor chosen and ready to order when they get to the front of the line. An extra employee or two working wouldn’t hurt either, but everyone is struggling hiring people right now so even that is understandable.

The ice cream is super delicious, creamy, unique and very flavorful. If you’re a simple ice cream Person, I’d stick to the basic flavors rather than trying to adventure out of your comfort zone. This shop is more for the adventurous palette, people who want to try something different. Otherwise, as the owner said: Dairy Queen is right down the street. Nothing wrong with admitting something like Love Creamery is not your jam - shortens the line for...

was one of the customers who bore witness to some kind of manager mistreating her employees. Older lady with brown hair. Berated her employee in front of an entire line of people. embarrassing look…. Only left this review to corroborate…. Can confirm this is a frequent spot of mine and this is genuinely the second time I’ve seen this happen. I feel second hand embarrassment for her…. that is absolutely no way to treat your staff-couldn’t pick up on everything that was said, but what I did hear was disheartening and I hope to god that staff member is 1. okay, and 2. finds another employer that has common decency and respect for their workers. 😪my family and I will not be returning. As much as my kids loved the ice cream, we will not support a business that allows this kind of management to go unchecked…. to the lady in which this review was made in regard to, learn how to handle grievances with your working staff professionally and respectfully. Lead with integrity, you need to seriously reflect on the way you carry yourself…. I want to encourage her to have handled this privately, but given how belittling she was publicly, I don’t even wish to imagine what would have been said behind closed doors…. what a scene. 😖stunning lack of...
