Waffle Bar — Restaurant in Minneapolis

; Yuuuuuummy! I'm not a person to enjoy sweets normally, but this is definitely a place I'll return when the unusual sweet cravings kicks in. They have a pretty decent size menu. They offer more than just ice cream, there's also coffee and smoothies. I had the Bananutella, which consist of, vanilla ice cream, Nutella (of course) and sliced banana topped with whipped cream. They have of all these other extra special instagrammable ice cream delights. I'd say my favorite part was the waffle cone. I honestly thought the waffle cone, was going to be like a regular waffle cone: crunchy and super sweet. Not this one, the waffle cone was soft and perfectly sweetened to balance the already-sweet ice cream. This definitely tops all of the ice cream joints I've been to: Izzy's, Sebastian's, Häagen-dazs... obviously not enough variety. Give it a shot, but this gets 5 starts for sure!

CONS: VERY LIMITED PARKING as the parking lot is shared with Subway customers and not to mention there's only 10 parking spots as it is. There's off street parking, but in Uptown sometime it can be difficult to find nearby parking. Ordering goes by fast, but waiting for your ice cream can take a little long since they are making your waffle cone FRESH,...

This is my first time trying the waffle bar in this location. I’ve never been here before I ordered the Thai tea because it had an alternative milk option, and the bacon waffle.

The atmosphere was good. It was kind of empty when I was there. It did just open. It’s like 1250 as I’m writing this. The service was good. She allowed me to have time to look over the menu and decide what I wanted and she gave me recommendations on what has alternative to milk options and what does not.

The food however, was lackluster I was really disappointed with the Thai tea. It was way too late and it was watery. It seemed like they used soy milk, which doesn’t give that rich taste, but the cup was cute. Honesty, I was close to taking it back.The bacon waffle was a little surprising because the menu said crumbles for bacon and it had strips so I wasn’t expecting like ripped bacon strips. I was expecting small little like bacon crumbles and I did ask for it to go and it came in a flat container and I was expecting it to come in a cone and now I understand why it wasn’t able to come in a cone because the bacon pieces would have not allowed that.

You should probably change your menu to let people know what type of bacon...

Waffles were good, toppings were fresh but I'm not a good judge on ice cream because after 2 bites I've had enough. The kiddos loved it, including the small child that got a milk tea with boba for no other reason than because it was his favorite color orange. We grabbed a couple lemonades for the road simply because we wanted the glasses and they were really good. Beautiful in color from the virtually flavorless pea tea, and in the glass more fresh fruit. Wait wasn't long. They appeared well staffed with all hands on deck. Small store with 1 bench for seating though and I'm sure that's bench is just waiting but we used it since children can't eat in my car. Had I known that in advance or the bench had been full we might not have stayed. Glad it wasn't because the dessert was worth it. We'll come back in the summer when they can...
