Black Cow Cafe — Restaurant in Sedona

Best ice cream shop in Sedona by far. Everything is homemade, most of it in plain sight. Every item is a cut above, so there really isn't a way to recommend a specific item. The pies might be better than your mother's, all made by Carrie, who owns the store with her husband Lane, who makes the ice cream, which includes flavors like Belgian Chocolate, Espresso Swirl and Prickly Pear, and can have toppings mixed into it on the cold stone. The coconut macaroons are almost guaranteed to be the best you will ever taste, and the coffee and draft root beer are local and delicious. Even the waffle cones are home made and taste and smell delicious. You can also get a sandwich or hot dog if you'd like. In addition to the quality of product, perhaps the best feature of The Black Cow is the atmosphere. You can tell that everyone feels that their coworkers and bosses are their friends, and Carrie and Lane are more like parents or mentors than owners. Everyone is friendly and willing to chat, and even the building has an old time ice cream shop feel that makes you forget the problems of this age. I would give a recommendation of the shop's 'must try' item, but honestly, it's all equally exceptional. If I had to choose, I would say to try the macaroons and the draft root beer. If macaroons aren't your style, go for pie a la mode. It will be worth...

i heard about this place a few years ago while staying at Hannagans Meadow. we ended up hanging out with the owners and we were talking prickly pear jellys and such when they told us they own an ice cream shop in Sedona with prickly pear ice cream...fast forward a few years an i'm finally in Sedona. i promised to stop if i was ever in the area so i did (side note trying to find parking to get here was super frustrating) got the hot dog and a cup of prickly pear ice cream. the hot dog was not what i was expecting (you know basic dog on a basic bun) but man was it GOOD! it was stuffed into a bun like bread thing with everything inside. the prickly pear ice cream which i waited years to try? over the top yummy! I'm so glad i didn't give up on finding a parking spot! the place is tiny and had a long line but it moved pretty quick. it only has a few tables that seat 2 people each...to go is the way to go (ate the hot dog there but took the ice cream to go). forgot to take pictures until we were walking back to the car and had already gotten through half...

Absolutely the best 👌. I'm a group tour guide and after each Sedona scenic tour, I stop here to buy my clients the largest jaw dropping delicious chocolate drizzle maroon you ever saw & enjoy. Or the square shaped powder sugar covered lemon bar that melts in your mouth with burst of sweet lemon flavors. Yummy. I get a kick out of watching my clients take the 1st bite & yells: "oh my gosh this is soo good". This Cafe has many varieties of ice-cream flavors, storemade waffle cones, toppings, milk shakes, giant pies & pasteries, prickly pear lemonade, coffee and more. It's located perfectly in the Uptown Sedona shopping district nestled in the perfect spot where you can see 👀 snoopy rock while you enjoy your ice-cream. The store is family owned and operated, and everyone is super friendly & patient. If you are in the area stop here to get your treat you won't be disappointed. Causion: could have long lines in busy seasons so be patient. It's...
