    Cute space with lots of seating, efficient service that keeps the long line moving and a long list of changing classic, local and unique flavors. Delicious!

    Sunshine Club and Rhubarb Crumble Baked Alaska Cone

    My husband and I shared a Baked Alaska Cone with Sunshine Club and Rhubarb Crumble. Whatever you do, make sure to get the Baked Alaska topping. The toasted marshmallow is delicious. The Sunshine Club was my favorite between the two flavors. I also liked the Rhubarb Crumble, but it tasted more like the crumble than rhubarb. We're in Alaska on vacation and I know we'll be back to try more flavors before we leave.

    Stopped in because they had unique Alaska flavors. We sampled a bunch and finally decided on a variety of flavors, all of which were excellent. A couple staff helped us out and there was a big discrepancy between the size scoops they doled out, so quality control could be improved a bit. Ambiance was nice and prices were fair. I'd definitely come back.

    Just tried this ice cream spot for the first time...wow! We enjoyed White Raven and Sitka Swirl in waffle cones with hot fudge. Everything tasted great! One waffle cone was a little messy and breaking apart but it tasted good. Long line but great service . Not much ambiance really, but cute shop. Hoping we get to go back before we leave Alaska on this trip.

    Definitely one of the better ice cream places I've been to! Great flavors, great service, in such a cute little dine in area where they feature local artists who are selling the excellent work!

    Wild Scoops is a true Anchorage gem, and I'm so glad we made it a priority during our October 2025 trip! This locally loved ice cream shop focuses on making small-batches, handcrafted flavors made with Alaskan ingredients--and it absolutely shows. We ordered two scoops in their signature Baked Alaskan cone, which comes topped with marshmallow fluff and lightly torched. I mean how can you not get the Baked Alaskan in Alaska right? We tried these available flavors at the time: *Wild Blueberry: Made with real wild Alaskan blueberries, this flavor was incredible--creamy with the perfect balance of sweetness and tart, berry brightness. *Tiger Treat: A swirl of Thai tea and black vanilla ice cream. Smooth and also not too sweet . My favorite was the wild blueberry!!! I love supporting local ice cream parlors that pour so much heart into their craft, and Wild Scoops delivers on every level. If you're in Anchorage, don't miss it--this place is worth the stop!

    The Baked Alaska is a popular specialty!

    Getting in the door can be difficult but then you are faced with having to choose between many delicious flavors. There are three locations in town so if the line is too long at one, try another. Perseverance will be rewarded!

    Finally got to visit Wild Scoops! This place stays busy but all staff work together seamlessly to keep their lines moving. The atmosphere is bright and warm despite them selling frozen goods. Wild Scoops has seasonal/rotating flavors. I believe if you visit often enough you may start to memorize their rotating flavors. Unfortunately, I cannot give 5 stars as I came specifically to try a Filipino dessert collab that was advertised to come with WildScoops Filipino flavored ice creams. For some odd reason, Wild Scoops did not make their Filipino flavored ice creams available when we came...disappointing. Despite this, what me and my girls were able to try, was fantastic. I believe we had vanilla bean and a few baked Alaska's. We can't wait to visit again.

    We visited Wild Scoops on a Thursday afternoon and were greeted with a line out the door - and the entire time we were there, the line never shrunk! Single ($5.25) - This includes a single scoop of ice cream in a small 4oz cup. It honestly looks kid sized! I guess a good portion for people calorie counting? For the ice cream, we went with the AK Birch Almond. This ice cream has a delightfully strong sweet and nutty almond flavor. The texture is a bit stretchy and gummy, fluffy but rich. I feel like they use a bit more gum stabilizers than some other artisan shops which gives the stretchy quality. I have not had birch syrup but I've had birch water and love the sweet mineral flavor. I'm not sure that it really comes out much since the toasted almond flavor is so strong. (4/5) We also sampled two flavors which we've never had before: Fireweed, which is sweet, floral, and a bit fruity, and Spruce Tip, which I can't really describe the taste of. I expected it to taste kind of like cedar jelly, so like the essence of pine needles, but it was totally different. PS: the pantry items they have near the front of the store are actually pretty good value. We were looking for Birch caramels and they had the 6oz bag for $13. The more touristy stores were selling it for $20. Bathrooms - Single unisex room

    Wild Scoops has a range of local / random amazing ice cream flavors to try (you're able to test whichever flavors you want), friendly staff, an open seating area, and plays classic rock music! I'll be back.

    I'd heard the buzz about this ice cream spot, so I had to see what the fuss was about. I rolled up around 9 PM--an hour before closing--and the line was already out the door. That's when I thought, okay, this has to be good. I'd seen a few videos hyping up their signature toasted cream topping, so I knew that was a must. Inside, the vibe was warm and welcoming, with a spread of unique flavors--even options for the lactose-intolerant crowd. One thing that stood out? They offer metal spoons for sampling instead of plastic ones. A small touch, but very cool and sustainable. The place has a good amount of seating inside and a bench outside, but judging by the crowd, snagging a seat on a busy day might take some luck. Now, the star of the show: the ice cream. I went with Redoubt's Revenge--a spicy chocolate flavor that totally surprised me. Smooth, rich, and with just the right amount of heat. Think Mexican hot chocolate in frozen form. I paired it with their Baked Alaskan Cone, and wow... talk about next-level. The toasted marshmallow cream on top was everything--lightly sweet, perfectly browned, and such a fun twist. I only wish I had one more day to go back. But until then, I'll be dreaming of that spicy scoop under that golden toasted cloud.

    Coconut ice cream with all the fixings including sago, peanuts, and many others with various textures. Nice staff. Fun atmosphere inside despite a raining afternoon outside.

    Good ice cream but not offering pints in all flavors seems a bit odd to me. I just want that white raven and root beer to-go!

    Oh Anchorage Menchie's... your days are so seriously numbered. How unfortunate. It is so…read moredifficult for us to get national chains like this here and then they arrive and squander the opportunity. In other cities Menchies are GLORIOUS. This place is a borderline sh1t-hole. After coming here for a family member's birthday at their request, I was baffled, because there are numerous locally owned frozen yogurt shops that in outstanding. This place is trash. Here's why: - its clear the staff members are underpaid and not invested. (They were playing Uno when we came in.) Their level of engagement was less than minimal. - Several of the machines were out of service. This is a small shop to begin with. With so few flavors to chose from, its not really very enjoyable trying to figure out what flavors will work together. Not a good selection of flavors that work well together. Yuck - Many of the toppings were stale or rotten or under-ripe. Pineapple, rotten. Strawberries mix of rotten and underripe. And the mochi, MOCHI.... half of it was bad. Did you know it coukd go bad?!?! I didn't. Sigh... Give the lack of engagement of the staff, this did not surprise me. How long did some of that stuff have to be sitting out to go bad? I used to work in food services... there's rules about that stuff! GROSS. do not recommend this Menchies at this time. Super bummer.

    Do not buy the prepackaged mini Froyo Sandwiches. I thought I was getting a good deal, but the box…read morewas full of thawed-refrozen sandwiches. The wafers were soggy from the melted Froyo and stuck to the wrapper, the was discolored and icy. Took them back and was told I could not get a refund, 2 boxes $6.99 apiece. He would've replaced them, but I didn't want more of the same. On retrospect, I should have, brought those back, until they were all gone saving some other schmuck from the same treatment.
