Generous portions of freshly made ice cream in hand crafted and dipped in pure sweetness and served in waffle cones and bowls. The queue moved quickly and efficiently and service was friendly throughout. There was no seating inside which was a disappointment for the 90 deg weather. However, we did find 2 picnic tables tucked away across the street in a well shaded area next to the river. Still a win! read more

Update: still the best ice cream in Estes! Good service with an olde soda shoppe feel. I skip the by-the-pound taffy and go straight to the counter for my favorite, a Black Raspberry cone. Hubs had a Bing Cherry Vanilla milkshake- yum. That would've been a great 2nd choice if there were no black raspberry. 19 and change for a milkshake and regular scoop in a sugar cone. Worth the walk across town--skip all the other ice cream shops and go for the real thing. read more

Says online open til 10pm. Walked forever to get there and they were closed at 9:24pm.

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. read more

The cones alone are a treat! I got the chocolate and peanut cone and filled it with a scoop of strawberry cheesecake. The serving was huge! Absolutely a must visit in Estes Park!! read more

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 read more

My daughter and I got some ice cream here early, last month. My daughter and I went here because the day before, they were handing out some 10% off coups in front of their store so I figure we'd pay them a visit. The employees were nice and attentive. They had a nice selection of ice cream and their prices are pretty much the same as everyone else on the strip. I got a Peanut Butter Chocolate malt and my daughter got a couple scoops of ice cream. My malt tasted okay but was super thin and runny. I expected a bit more out of a $9 malt. They were giving away one sample of the taffy so of course my daughter and I snagged a sample each. It was good. The same as all of the other taffy around. All in all, it was just an okay experience. Not sure if I would go back considering there are so many ice cream options on the main drag. read more

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!! read more

The ice cream and waffle cone were delicious, the three stars are because the store is filthy and the service wasn't pleasant at all when every other spot we stopped at in Estes Park was extremely pleasant and made sure to know they were glad to have our business. Honestly, I could overlook the blah service if it weren't didn't look so dirty and uncared for. read more

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

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. read more

Fantastic ice cream shop in Estes Park! Walking by and caught a whiff of the incredible smell coming from inside of their cones. It's a small shop, but has plenty of room to walk around. The taffy side is fantastic; you can get a free sample. They have different size bags and all of the prices per pound listed so there's no confusion. The taffy itself has fantastic flavor and is the perfect texture - soft and chewy. They have a great variety of flavors so you really can't go wrong. On the ice cream side, they also have a great variety of flavors of ice cream as well as different flavored waffle cones! We opted for a cup with one scoop this time, but I will certainly be back to try one of the waffle cones. For ice cream flavor, we chose black raspberry and it was fabulous! Creamy and delicious. The service was good - employees were friendly and quick. read more

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! read more

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.

Good ambience, very friendly and quick service...clean operation...good ice cream! Highly recommend..

The sizes were huge. The waffle cone was fine. We also had a double scoop of strawberry cheese cake ice cream. Overall it was ok, but have had more flavorful ice cream. read more

Great ice cream and great cones! Just enough flavors to choose from, not too many not too little. The girl working behind the counter was very kind when my boyfriend asked for multiple (!) samples lol read more

The delicious smell of the slow cooking waffle cones wafting through the air made us step into the shop! I had the homemade strawberry cheesecake ice cream, and the boys had a chocolate milk shake and rocky road cone. The friendly staff member and delicious treats hit the spot on a warm and sunny afternoon! :) read more

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 :-) read more

Unique looking cones with different flavors! The cone is not crunchy like waffle cone or sugar cone. So if you are in for some crunch, Danish cones are not for you! We like it though. We will certainly come back for a different flavor! read more

After much discussion my family has decided that the Danish Cone is the best ice cream in Estes! They make their own waffle cones and have a variety of fun flavors of cones to check out.

I liked that Danish Cone wasn't stingy with the samples. Unfortunately I just wasn't in love with any I tried. They were all too sweet. And there were no unusual flavors. Small batch hipster creamery this was not. We ended up sharing a waffle sundae with butter pecan and vanilla ice creams with hot fudge and our choice of toppings. We got oreo crumbles and m & m's. The daughter got the strawberry guava sorbet. We had a free sample of the salt water taffy flavor of the day. read more

This place has some creative waffle cones! I've seen plenty of chocolate dipped cones, but here I saw baked-in varieties like: raspberry, mint chocolate, and caramel. We went for a toffee (baked in) cone with the house special "Dutch mix." Great flaky cone and creamy ice cream, cherry on top was the shape of the cone was wider than most styles, it allowed the ice cream to sink further down into the bottom. read more

Estes Park definitely does not have a shortage of ice cream shops! We were craving a cool treat and drove passed The Danish Cone Factory. With the windows rolled down, we could smell the waffle cones from the street! The smell was very enticing. Upon entering the store, we were happy to see there were many flavored waffle cone choices as well as a variety of homemade ice cream flavors. The staff gave us samples to try to make sure we were happy with what we would ultimately order. We ordered the marshmallow waffle cone with Dulce de Leche ice cream, the white choc Oreo waffle cone with Mexican chocolate ice cream and an original waffle cone with chocolate chip cookie dough. I also sampled the huckleberry ice cream which was fun and had a nice sweet/slightly sour taste. The Mexican Chocolate was really good. I enjoyed the taste of cinnamon and nutmeg and the hot chili taste at the end of the bite was nice. The other ice creams were good and what would be expected from ice cream. The original waffle cone was my favorite of the cones. We ate our ice cream at the Tregent Park which is a 1-minute walk West of the ice cream shop. read more

Great flavors but a little pricey. It's fun to watch them make taffy and even more fun to watch them make waffles. The waffle cones taste delicious- you can tell they make it fresh and they have creatively dipped cones. read more

This place was delicious. I felt like a cartoon character walking into the place, the scene where you're flying to the pie in the window, but into an ice cream shop. I ordered the marshmallow waffle cone with 2 scoops; Chocolate Peanut Butter and Danish Cone. These scoops were quite large in size. The mix of my flavors were a good combination of sweet and savory with a creamy texture. My fiance ordered 2 scoops of Chocolate Peanut Butter and love every bite of it where he even snacked on some of mine since the portions were good sizes. Cost us about $15 for both which isn't horrible. You pay for what you get. I highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Estes Park and in need of something sweet. read more

SOOOOOOOO GOOD!! We tried the ice cream here and loved it!! It was just the perfect amount of sweetness! I opted for a cup rather than a cone, but I still loved it. *TIP* You can choose two flavors even if you only get one scoop! read more

Wow! So many taffy flavors to choose from and the ice cream is amazing. They have a lot of different waffle cone options and unique ice cream flavors. I got the coconut almond fudge, and I think it was the best ice cream flavor I've ever tried. After checking out my ice cream scoop fell off of the cone onto the floor and they were so nice and gave me a brand new one for free. Great customer service! read more

Best Danish pastry I have ever had. So many wonderful things to choose from, all made from scratch. The custard danish and strawberry danish were to die for! The bear claws and jelly donut did not disappoint. I loved that things were not sickening sweet but were light and flaky. It's good I don't have this in my town or I would be there everyday! Love how this family has kept the old world European traditional baking. read more
