Oh my goodness!!! The BEST ice cream I have EVER had!!! You MUST try the Mexican Chocolate flavor if/when they have it. It was amazing! Their waffle cones are also delicious. There is generally a long line because the ice cream is so good but it's TOTALLY worth it. They make a certain amount of flavors each day so they do run out. Helpful to know: their scoops are HUGE. I ordered two scoops on a cone and it was meal in of itself. It's not dine-in. read more

Would have given higher rating but the person servicing didn't serve the 2 scoops in different flavors that we asked. The dipped cones were a nice touch. read more

Delicious- grabbed a few flavors to go and really liked the salted caramel and Rocky road post - hiking read more

Wow, yum! This was our second try at bing cherry ice cream, and wish we'd skipped the first down the street in Estes! Hayley's beat it by a mile! The staff was friendly, scoop huge, and the big chunks of bing cherry were legit. Others were raving about her chocolate chip. Ice cream is homemade with a variety of homemade cookies and flavored popcorn selections as well. Worth the trip! read more

Disappointed we chose this ice cream shop when we were in Estes Park. The shop is convenient, however very small and hard to navigate with a stroller if you have one. The staff were all very rude and impatient with no customer service skills whatsoever. The prices are insane. We paid $20 for two ice creams that were no more special than baskin robbins. Would certainly choose elsewhere next time we are in the area. read more

Ice cream was pretty good, even though the prices are slightly steep at over $5/scoop. I got the chocolate chip cookie dough and it was pretty good. The single scoop was generous and it lasted till we got to our car. The chunks were much appreciated. I'd come back! read more

Good stuff, not outstanding, but worth the trip if you are looking for ice cream. No more to say, but had to write more for review

We were craving some ice cream after walking around town for a bit. We just walked in, did not really know what to expect. Line was really short so we decided to give it a try. Friendly staff greeted us as we walked up to the glass displays. We were offered a few samples before making our choices. The place is very low key. , nothing fancy. No tables or counter to stand and eat, but ice cream was good. It was just firm enough that it didn't quickly melt and I was able to savor and enjoy the ice cream. read more

Two words and five syllables: BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE! I was blown away with their homemade selection but the Blueberry Cheesecake ice cream was simply out of this world. The chunks of graham crackers and sweet blueberries were generously mixed into their homemade creamy ice cream recipe. The associate told us that the ice creams are made in-house daily and nothing gets shipped in other than the ingredients. These guys also offer other treats like cookies, sundaes, milkshakes, and candied apples. Stop in with your friends and family that were blessed with having a sweet tooth and support a local small business! read more

10/10 recommend this place. Chocolate Overload was the most delicious chocolate ice cream I have ever had. Seriously. It was so creamy and smooth, you could totally tell it was homemade. I went yesterday with my fiancé and another couple-- the four of us ALL got Chocolate Overload. My fiancé and I each got 1 scoop but with two flavors: Chocolate Overload & Killa Chip Dough Nilla. The combo of the chocolate with the vanilla chips cookie dough and caramel swirl................. I mean I couldn't stop raving about it for hours even after I finished my cone. A must visit spot if you are stopping into town after a RMNP hike!!!!! ***Reminder it is COVID times so you must wear a mask to enter. Stay safe y'all!!!! read more

Very yummy ice cream and fast service. The place is very popular, so expect a line. The only negative is trying to find parking. Their lot is a small, paid parking lot and it can be tough finding a spot. read more

I don't know why Hayley's only has 4 stars but their ice cream, their service and their serving sizes were all amazing. Oreo cheesecake had more toppings in it than I've had in any ice cream. I 100% recommend this place if you're in the area. read more

Best ice cream in Estes! Delicious flavors and large servings. Tried tiger butter and Oreo cheesecake. Definitely returning next year

Rude wait staff, a half-sized single scoop for $9, because of the nickel & dime, make that $1 - $2 add-on charges, for a waffle cone, then dipped, etc. I felt ripped off. There are several other places just a few doors away in any direction which get way better reviews. I'll try my luck elsewhere. read more

I came in for some ice cream. They have unique flavors and I chose the cookie dough carmel in a waffle cone. It was tasty but not worth $8.42 for once scoop. read more

Best ice cream in town. I had the chocolate overload and boy did it deliver. I love lots of things in my ice cream, but also my friends who got the chocolate chip and strawberry liked it as well. We came back twice and were only in town for four nights. read more

The ice cream itself was okay, the portions left something to be desired. For the price, it wasn't worth it. I would look around before stopping here. read more

Best ice cream in town for sure. I got the coffee and tiger-butter. I wouldn't go anywhere else after trying this.

Chocolate overload shake. Amazing. Just enough milk to make it easy to use a straw, but wasn't too much to where it became a liquid drink. The $10 price was a bit high, but considering the area, worth it. read more

After a long day of hiking in the park, we stopped at Haykey's to refuel with ice cream. What a delicious joy it was to meet the ice cream maker and get his recs. Needless to say, all the flavors we had we terrific! Turtle, blueberry cheesecake, Tiger Butter, and Killa Dough Nilla! Their scoops are large (really 2 scoops mushed to fit)! Prices were very reasonable. We didn't try their very tempting and also huge cookies. Get to Hatley's, people! read more

Insanely over priced. Blonde girl was rude to many tourists including giving them dirty looks and just had a nasty look on her face. She kept saying to people "are you gonna order already or not". Then she would just stand there and not help her coworkers. Ice cream flavors 10/10 ice cream taste 7/10 nothing special but still good. read more

Whenever I'm on vacation, I have to go to the nearest ice cream joint. So when on vacation in RMNP, we stayed in Estes Park. Although I was disappointed at the early closing times of all the shops, we were able to make it to Hayley's twice during our stay. We opted for Hayley's because it had the highest reviews on Yelp. It reminded me of the ice cream shop we went to when on vacation in Acadia NP in Maine. Although they have a variety of flavors (a plus), the ice cream is average. I got a few different flavors each time and both times, I felt like it was something I could have purchased at the local grocery store. Nothing to write home about. The staff is friendly and will load up your cones to the extreme! So both cones I got were massive-- and as an ice cream enthusiast, I had no problem scarfing both down. All told, a decent option if it's ice cream you want, but average overall. read more

Pros - They have so many delicious flavors! The servers were also super generous in allowing us to try multiple flavors - The store itself has an inviting atmosphere. I love the display of the caramel apples and popcorn! It just makes you want to buy everything - The menu is super clear and simple with the number of scoops and types of cones they offer - They also allow you to get half and half for one scoop - You can get your scoop of ice cream in a cup or cone (same price) Cons - It's a bit pricey, but I guess that's expected for "homemade" ice cream ($5.50 for one scoop) - At first when I tasted the Pistachio ice cream, it was tasty, but the more I ate it the less sweet it became. The saltiness of the pistachios came out a little too much when I got about halfway through my one scoop read more

A couple weeks ago, I went for a drive from Boulder to Estes Park, and made a stop for ice cream/gelato after a late brunch in Boulder. Hayley's was decidedly the top ice cream parlour in Estes Park, per Yelp, so I popped in. The line was long, and I liked that it was all about the ice cream, with only a few other options, like cotton candy. I sampled a couple flavors, and copied the other masked visitors ahead of me, who ordered the strawberry guava sorbet. Yep! They had great taste, and - though I wouldn't normally have landed on a sorbet, as I'm usually a mint chocolate chip/chocolate person - it was definitely the best choice, especially for such a hot day. Highly recommend the strawberry guava sorbet. It's perfectly refreshing! read more

Killer ice cream. Got Killer Dough Chip Nilla and Mud Pie in a cup. Great taste, decent price, quick and fast service. Good touristy spot and right on the Main Street. Would get ice cream here again if I was in the area. read more

Hayley's is always the ice cream spot I end up at in Estes. I don't know if it's because I'm always on that side of the street or it just looks the best, but it is always the chosen one. The only reason I am giving them 4/5 stars is because this last time I went they didn't have any chocolate sprinkles, or any toppings for that matter, which I thought in the past they did! read more

This place has a gazillion flavors to choose from. Amazing selection of ice creams and toppings. It will hit your cravings at the rigth spot. They have other stuff like taffy and chocolate covered apples etc too. read more

Estes Park is to ice cream shops what Boston is to clam chowder. Perhaps that's not a strong enough analogy. Estes Park is to ice cream shops what Boston is to boorish individuals with comical accents that replace the "/r/" phoneme with "[]" or another neutral central vowel. Ice cream shops are ubiquitous in the quaint little mountain town of Estes Park, Colorado, but who am I to complain? I'm a sucker for a heaping bowl of rich, creamy homemade ice cream, so the more shops the merrier. I've visited every ice cream shop in town, but I return to Hayley's for one reason alone: the spicy, decadent Mexican chocolate milkshake. The ingredients are undoubtedly very simple (whole milk, sugar, cocoa powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cayenne powder), yielding a thick, rich shake with nothing artificial. I suspect that Hayley's ice cream is free of carrageenan (a potentially toxic seaweed derivative used as a thickening agent in most commercial ice creams), because I never feel bloated afterwards. In fact, I could probably gulp down at least two more shakes, so I can only conclude that Hayley's incorporates "The Stuff," a highly addictive (yet delicious) ice cream-like substance of extraterrestrial origin (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UPDzJ3XVhg) Whenever I order the Mexican chocolate shake, the employees caution me that "some folks think it's too spicy." I've been a proud "pepper head" my entire life, so I cannot empathize with pansies...er...individuals sensitive to capsaicin. The shake does indeed pack a punch, but the sting is offset by casein, a compound found in dairy that binds with capsaicin and cools the palate. That interplay between spicy and cool is what brings me back for more. I've sampled Mexican chocolate elsewhere, but few places are bold enough to include such a large amount of cayenne. I live in San Antonio, Texas, arguably the Tex-Mex capital of the world, yet I must travel to the Colorado Rockies to get my heat fix. If you find yourself craving some good, old-fashioned homemade ice cream in Estes Park, then skip the Dairy Queen in the center of town and make a beeline for Hayley's on Elkhorn Drive. I've yet to sample anything other than the Mexican chocolate shake, but I'm confident that the other flavors (even the boring ones for heat-sensitive girly men) are every bit as delicious. Just save enough room for a prime rib dinner at the Dunraven Inn! read more

I almost didn't want to post this review because I didn't want everyone else to know about how amazing this place is. Cuz then the line would be even longer. I consider my family and I to be ice cream snobs. I don't like icey ice cream. I don't like grainy ice cream. I like ice cream that is beautifully creamy with good flavors. And that's what this is. The tiger butter is...the best ice cream I think I've ever had. Holy crap, it's so good. There is always a big line here, and it's not the cheapest, but there's a reason for that: it's the best. Also , they give you huge scoops. I wish they made their own waffle cones, but I will forgive that since the ice cream is so good. And they give you huge scoops, too. read more

Lots of delicious flavors, generous portions, and lots of other bonuses outside of the great ice cream like Carmel apples. You can't go wrong with a stop at Hayley's! read more

Hayleys is everything good to happen to the world. Their ice cream is absolutely delicious - it tasted homemade and fresh like they just churned it in the back. I've had a lot of desserts in my life but this one? This is the kind of ice cream I remember laying down some 6 months later on a random night. Absolutely delicious. I had their waffle as well - prepackaged and reheated but it was authentic Belgian and tasted delicious with the ice cream. The cookies were mediocre, thats to expect at an ice cream shop. Works were more than willing to help and the area was cute, super picturesque. Super glad I stopped here to try the ice cream- 10/10 recommend! read more

Not sure what all the hype was about. The ice cream was good, not great. Yes, convenient to the downtown shopping and restaurant district and a wide variety of flavors. Offered cones, cups and Sundays along with candies apples, waffle cones or sprinkle cones. Prices seemed high $5 plus dollars for a single scoop. Still the line was out the door. $29 later we can now say we've been there. 1/2 mile away McDonalds has cones for $1.29! read more
