Espresso & Ice Cream House

About This Establishment

Crunch meets cream as the Brownie waffle collapses into a scoop of Huckleberry ice cream. The ice cream is smooth and rich, while the brownie waffle delivers a crackle that snaps with every bite. Crepes arrive warm and whisper-thin, folded over secret fillings, all in a cozy counter-service nook with a pet-friendly porch.
