    GIANT SCOOPS OF ICE CREAM Need I say more? The scoops are softball sized, which is no exaggeration. I shared a two scoop cone and it felt like we were eating a pint of ice cream. So on value alone they get a win in my book. Shoutout to the employees doing the Lord's work with their scoops. Flavors are hit or miss so I recommend sampling a few. We liked the strawberry guava sorbet and the Danish swirl. A few of the other flavors we tried were a bit more bland. The flavored cone is a cool idea and it does taste different but tbh it doesn't add a whole new dimension. But colored cones are cool. For a tourist town this is a pretty decent value. Not the best ice cream I've had but solid for a walk around town while you shop.

    tiger butter (peanut butter) ice cream with a black raspberry waffle cone

    The best part was the cone!!! Had the tiger butter (peanut butter) ice cream with a black raspberry waffle cone. Never had a cone like this. They were nice about giving samples. Also sells laffy taffy. Parking on streets

    Service was good as staff was friendly, but the ice cream was sub par. I got a single scoop of cookie dough and was rather underwhelmed..$6 later. The cookie dough itself seemed to lack flavor and was a bit dry. However, my sister got the vanilla mall and was raving about it. It was big enough to share, so she split with my aunt who also loved it. Long story short - the malt seems to be the better route to go!!

    Now this was tasty! The cones were fresh, and warm.. an ice cream lovers dream! A perfect spot after a long hike!

    There are so many ice cream places to choose in Estes Park. Of course, I used Yelp to narrow it down - as always, it didn't disappoint. The Danish Cone Factory has so many homemade cones to choose from! I sampled a few flavors, all were delicious. I went with wedding cake ice cream in a funfetti looking cone. It was is amazing! Super creamy and flavorful. The cone was perfect. I was just visiting the area, but I wish there was a Danish Cone Factory local to me.

    We had a great experience! The cone options were so fun and everything was reasonably priced considering. I got chocolate in a peanut butter cone and it was fantastic! My husband also enjoyed his ice cream.

    I didn't even plan on getting any taffy but there is something in the air once you walk in so it's impossible to walk away empty handed. So many different flavors and you can pick and choose anything you like. I do think it's a bit expensive for a small box of taffy but it's expected for a touristy trap. Personally I do think that there are better taffy places up there. The ice cream is, well, ice cream! Nothing special but hits the spot after a long day of hiking!

    Doggo enjoying a little vanilla ice cream

    Good ice cream--really fun flavors like caramel Java chip and very kind staff :) Felt like a sweet family place--we will definitely stop here again. Its a great place to stop in Estes Park. Any place that will be nice to my dog is immediately top of my list :-)

    Mexican chocolate with cinnamon and cayenne
    Jeni O.

    Was really good and different flavor, the Mexican chocolate - the one scoop was like a super scoop Zane liked the vanilla and cookies and cream scoop Waffle cone was good, sweet flavor

    Blueberry cheesecake
    Brian C.

    Blueberry cheesecake = berry poggers. Wish we could do two flavors per cup/cone. The menu was a bit confusing - it wasn't clear that the cone was priced in already. Overall a nice place and I'd definitely go back.

    My family of 5 stopped by here, and across the board we all said 5 stars. They all got birthday cake. I got a salted Oreo malt.

    The cones and ice cream were fantastic. The staff acted like they were in a forced labor camp.

That being said, the elderly gentleman who took our order wasn't nearly as sweet as the product he was selling. In fact, he seemed put out to see a patron enter into his establishment at all. Regardless of the stale service received, this is a unique spot for families, with plenty of space for kids to run around, amidst a fun colorfully lit backdrop that gives off an arcade feel from an era gone by. The framed canine on the wall, much beloved by its owner, is a cute touch too. The sweet snacks once sampled back in the car weren't terribly fresh, but we plan to visit again and try more items on the expansive menu.

Unfortunately, he didn't seem very interested in helping or ensuring we received what we asked for. We purchased three pieces of chocolate for $23, which already felt expensive, and when we returned to our hotel we realized they had given us the wrong chocolates--no tiger butter at all. We tried calling the shop to address the mistake, but it went straight to voicemail. Between the lack of customer service, the error with our order, and the high price point, the experience was very disappointing. For the cost, the quality did not meet expectations. Sadly, this place feels past its prime, and I wouldn't recommend it.

All symptoms point to food poisoning. We will not be back. This was our first visit to You Need Pie. What we liked: Our waiter was really hospitable, friendly, and did his best to provide service in a timely way despite being the only server available for all the customers. The coffee was decent, though in a small mug, and so was the hot chocolate we orders for the kids (which came with whipped cream, much to their delight!). The decor on the walls felt kind of scanty but what is there was cute. There is a pretty wide pie selection. Food serving sizes were okay. The single person bathroom was clean. What we didn't like: *The $2 veg add-ins of onion and jalapeños to the $12 omelette were raw. *The corned beef hash was extremely basic and barely seasoned, the potatoes were well cooked but bland and pale. It was edible but not worth $15. *Our party ordered a $9 bread bowl soup and waffle fries as well; it was eaten but the cheese ingredient was really overpowering in flavor - the small size was a good thing, in this case, because otherwise it couldn't have been finished. *The batter on the chicken tenders in the kid's meal were almost burnt on the edges, but still pale everywhere else. Something off with the oil temperature I guess. They didn't get eaten. *The color of everything was pretty much all beige and served on white plates, which impacted the impression of the meal - zero visual appeal. One of my favorite parts of eating at mom-and-pop diners is the way the meals feel homey, warming you from the inside out. This did not create that kind of impression. Lastly, the pie (which was the main draw for us and why we picked this dining option). We ordered one slice of rhubarb at $6.25. The pie was very disappointing - something in it was either stale or had gone bad. It tasted really unpleasant and we ended up throwing it away. Our total for everything was about $80 with tip and it was sadly not money well spent. We love stand alone dining options but probably will not be returning.
