We splirged and ordered a scoop and a shake each, which seemed to really stress out the kids who were working- there were only 3 of what looked to be high school aged kids working the ice cream counter, which they handled quickly despite how busy it was. We got our cones and paid, then waited a few minutes for our shakes at their window, which is such a genius idea considering the entry and ordering space is so small. There's free water/cups as well, but the clean ones were a little dusty from being outside, so next time I'd rinse the cup before filling it. Overall, such a cute spot and the ice cream was great!

It's so cute inside, designed for both adults and children. Their selection is unique, and I ultimately decided on Purple Mountain (taro) which was dreamy.

Overall this place is really impressive and is churning out delicious food in such a tiny space!

I didn't even get to take a photo of the pretzel because I completely annihilated it. It was phenomenal. I came to my senses enough go photograph the sandwich, it was also amazingly good. I passed the loaf around to everyone at my table and we all really liked it. I also got a cute little mason jar for my drink which is so cool. The eatery is inside a little shop so the vibe is very granola in the best way. It smells incredible inside. The staff is also so incredibly nice and gave me several recommendations and made it all seem like incredible options. The price point is high, but i'm learning that's just Colorado in general. I had no issue spending my money here.

They closed the kitchen 30 minutes early for absolutely no reason. We tried to talk to the lead shift manager because apparently there's no manager on staff.

We ordered the Whiskey Melt with sweet potato fries, tots, a half Caesar, plus the Rose Marie and Rye Tai cocktails. Both drinks were fantastic and easily some of the highlights of the meal. The sweet potato fries and tots were excellent - super crispy, flavorful, and cooked just right. The Whiskey Melt was cooked perfectly, but it needed a bit more seasoning to really bring the flavors together. Because of that, the cheese and grilled onions got a little lost instead of standing out. A little extra seasoning would take this sandwich to the next level. One small note: the $1.50 side sauces didn't feel like a great value. It came in a prefilled 2-ounce portion cup with lid, but container was barely half full. The portion size didn't quite justify the upcharge. The service was exceptional. Not only was our server attentive and friendly, but every staff member we interacted with - or even watched helping other tables - seemed genuinely happy to be there. That level of hospitality really stood out. Overall, we had a great experience. Great drinks, excellent sides, outstanding service, and a welcoming dog-friendly patio. With a little more seasoning on the melt and a better value on the side sauces, this would easily be a five-star visit. We'll definitely be back.
