They offer an entirely separate vegan menu with multiple flavors to choose from, which was so appreciated. I sampled the chocolate vegan ice cream and it was absolutely incredible -- rich, creamy, and full of flavor. It genuinely tasted like premium ice cream, not just a substitute. If you're vegan and visiting the Traverse City area, this is definitely a must-stop dessert spot!

Saw this place while walking through downtown and wanted to try their organic handmade ice creams…read more There was a small line but it went quickly. The workers were fast and friendly. I ordered the birthday cake ice cream, which surprisingly did not have the typical "birthday cake" look with sprinkles or bright colors. They definitely focus on only using natural ingredients and no artificial flavorings, which I appreciate. I didn't really get the "birthday cake" flavor that much, though. The flavor was almost too natural and tasted like straight heavy cream when I took my first bite lol. I wasn't sure how I felt about it, but you can never go wrong with ice cream and it was still good.

All were warm and hot, which was the key to all of them. Each donut was also priced individually. I was able to have six and my thoughts on each are below. Cherry Pie - This was alright. It needed a little more cherry. PB & J - This had a strawberry icing with a peanut butter glaze along with some peanuts on top I believe. This was very tasty. Banana split - This was tasty with the cherry on top. Banana bread - This was different, and unique. There was plenty of banana flavor. This was actually my favorite one. Strawberry French toast - This was very good, just enough strawberry flavoring and the French toast was very apparent. Cinnamon Sugar - This classic was done right with plenty of sugar present. Will I go back? No doubt.

This place was such a treat. My latte was amazing, and my husband and I both got the bagel breakfast sandwiches and absolutely loved them. My husband isn't gluten-free or dairy-free, and he thought his was just as good as I did. That's what impressed me most. This isn't just great food "for being allergen-friendly." It's just really good food. We're visiting from out of town and honestly wish we had a place like this near where we live. Thank you for making allergen-friendly food taste like the food everyone actually wants to eat!

I ordered an iced sleeping bear latte (love the name), which was espresso, milk, and lavender vanilla syrup. I typically only drink dairy milk but I chose almond milk as my choice of milk.

There's a couple tables inside as well as a nice outdoor seating area.

There is rarely a time in the summer when there isn't a line, but it is always worth the wait. Cherry moobilee is one of our favorites! We also love sitting outside and watching the cows while enjoying our ice cream. It makes the whole experience even more special. Recently, we stopped in and ordered one of their adorable mouse sundaes, and it made my whole family so happy! Such a fun treat and such a wonderful place. We absolutely love coming here!

The lengthy line moved quickly with an efficient process by the staff. An ice cream flight ($10?) was ordered. Five flavors were chosen. Each was about half a scoop I would say. The flavors I tried are below. Most of the ice cream was fulfilling, but not as creamy as I would have thought being homemade. Black Cherry - This was black cherry ice cream with pieces of Michigan cherry pieces. This was plain and did not really taste like anything except for the cherry pieces. Cherries Moobilee - This was black cherry ice cream with chocolate fudge swirl, brownie chunks, and black cherry chunks. Again, the ice cream was plain, but the pieces of everything else helped overcome that a little bit. Cherry Pie a La Mode - This was vanilla ice cream with cherry swirl and pie pieces. This was my favorite. The cherry swirl combined with the small pie pieces made for an appealing treat. Butter Pecan - This again just lacked flavor besides the pecan pieces. Lemon Raspberry - This was lemon ice cream with a raspberry swirl. This was just not good at all. The lemon did not taste like lemon at all, and there was hardly any raspberry. Even with a small portion, I would expect the swirl to be in every bite. Will I go back? Debatable.

We…read morewalked in to find this bistro housed inside a hotel, so we didn't have high expectations - thought it was just going to be another average brunch. We turned out to be amazed by the food. The Michigan Benedict ($16) was extremely well-made. The thick-cut bacon was crispy and stayed crispy even at the end, after being soaked in hollandaise. It just had that simple balance of fatty fragrance and crunchy bite. The Seafood Omelette ($26) was also really, really nice. The portion of seafood was genuinely generous: I counted at least three scallops, four shrimp, and mouthful after mouthful of lobster folded into a provolone béchamel. Scoop up a piece with the toasted focaccia and it's hard to imagine a better way to start the morning. Service was prompt and the room was cozy and unpretentious. We'll definitely want to be back to try the lunch and dinner menu.
