Decent ice cream, but doesn’t have the creaminess level I prefer. I’m generally a fan of super or ultra premium ice cream & this particular creamery didn’t seem to have a texture or creaminess that matched that.If you prefer a gelato style or bull bell style of ice cream (this place is MUCH better than blue bell), then you’d probably like this place more than I did & rate it much higher.
FIREEE!!! The apple pie flavor hands down THE BEST. Jeez I day dream about their ice cream its so good.
Literally the best vegan ice cream we’ve had in Denver! I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars, it’s truly very good. The cone was perfectly spiced with cinnamon and nutmeg and the Oreo ice cream was amazing. My husband got an Oreo ice cream shake which isn’t pictured because we ate it too quickly, it was just too good. And the lady who helped us was one of the nicest people. Go support them!
Tasty ice cream, with a bonus of home cooked Ethiopian takeout (truly delicious). Highly recommend!
Best selection of non-dairy flavors in Denver
Nice they were open so late on a Sunday, staff was friendly when they eventually came from the back room. Selection was smaller than expected, but had some interesting flavors like key lime pie.
Reasons to go here:1. Ice cream is fantastic, both regular and dairy free (I’m lactose intolerant, so it’s great to have somewhere like this I can eat at)2. Family owned, black owned business3. They also make and sell food in the fridge that is as authentic to the region their family comes from as possible, it’s delicious (it’s in the fridge, grab one and take it home. It’s amazingly good)4. It’s a great spot to hang out, nice and colorful and relaxed inside or sit outside.5. Supporting community businesses is vital, and that is 100% what this is
The best vegan ice cream I’ve ever had, and the to-go meals are delicious, healthy, and gluten free! My husband was hospitalized in the area and lived off the vegan oreo shakes. What a kind and beautiful family. Thank you!
Wide variety of flavors. Their vegan ice cream is SO CREAMY (coconut milk). This place is a must try if you are considering it. Family owned and super friendly.
They have so many delicious flavors!! Its hard to choose just one. And their cones only add to the taste.
Cold and delicious vegan ice cream, a warm and delightfully kind owner. Your day will be brighter for a visit to Walias. I had a scoop of the lavender and coffee.
We went to Walia today for the first time. Like most of the other reviewers, I highly doubt that it will be our last. The ice cream was delicious and the lady that helped us was super nice. Everything about our visit from start to finish was great. Between the three of us, we had chocolate, strawberry, reeces and oreo ice cream. She even put the toppings on both the bottom and top of the cups so that there were toppings in every bite. Cant wait to go back!
The vegan options are diverse. Matcha Vegan was recommended to me and I loved it. The kiddo got vanilla, strawberry and mint chocolate chip. Loved all the flavors, but the strawberry was ok.There are so many options and we will definitely be coming back for more.
Great service, great vegan ice cream!
It’s that time of the year again! Stopped in to my neighborhood ice cream shop yesterday and fell in love all over again! Honey, ginger with chunks of pear😳…❤️MG. Next is lemon cheesecake. See ya tonight!
Lovely spot! really really wide array of flavors (and like the most vegan and dairy-free options ever!) PLUS they have amazing to-go Ethiopian lunch plates. So delicious, great prices, and wonderful service!
Good choice of flavors including vegan flavors. Ice cream is lighter than expected. Best ice cream cones Ive ever had.
Unique, delicious ice cream flavors. I always go for the vegan ice cream varieties. Im always satisfied even with the suggested flavors. The cones are made and they taste like Biscotti cookies. Cows milk ice cream also available. Lol. They have other treats and a little lunch menu as well. This is a small, black-owned family shop.
So glad we drove out. the ice cream at this place is incredible! Keep up the great work with those flavors (the lavender and fudge were so good!)
Great selection of rich non-dairy ice cream in addition to premium real ice cream.
So, so, SO good! Delicious vegan ice cream (coconut-based, it seemed?) and delicious Ethiopian plates to go...whats not to love?
This place is worth the drive! As delicious as everyone said it would be! The ice cream was DELICIOUS, the service was great, and the menu is wonderful. The granddaughter was so nice to talk to. Cant say enough good things about it. Black-owned, woman-owned, family-owned, local and lots of vegan choices! What could be better???
Cute little shop with some delicious vegan options! Can’t wait to go back and try more flavors!
Best vegan smoothie ever! I choose the flavors vegan chai, coffee, and matcha with coconut milk. Plus the person, Chweet (not sure if I spelled her name correctly) is super sweet, helpful, and adorable. She made my experience worthwhile.Con - They used the brand Silk coconut milk which isnt nor my favorite. Hopefully, they switch to a healthier option.
After reading the great reviews, I knew that I had to visit Walia. Honestly, I was drawn in by the combination of Ethiopian food and vegan ice cream.The Ethiopian food was honestly better than Ive had at many restaurants in Denver; it isnt has good flavor from the spice blends and its not salty or greasy. Even though its pre-made and something you reheat, Ill go back for the Ethiopian food alone.Then, theres the vegan ice cream! They have many interesting flavors like lavender, Earl Grey, chai, and coffee; its not gimmicky flavors with gummy bears or Lucky Charms cereal or other goofy things. The ice cream is smooth, creamy, and not cloyingly sweet. I even took home a pint of vegan Oreo ice cream for my non-vegan parents who both loved it!Last, and most important, both of the women working there were the nicest people. Theyre extremely friendly and they operate a clean business with plenty of hand sanitizer, masks, clean tables, and all the things you like to see to keep everyone healthy and safe.Go now and support a great local business 👍❤️
🍦 Yummy 😋 I got the coffee. We will be returning. Wish I hadn’t waited so long to go.
Came across this place while searching for vegan options. The pumpkin spice latte and mint chip ice cream were delicious and the service was super friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back, wish we had one in Kansas City!
Truly so happy to have tried out Walia Creamery!!! My favorite ice cream I’ve had in/near Denver. The owner was so kind and the ice cream was amazing! I’m not even vegan and all their vegan ice creams were just as delicious as their dairy ice creams; they also had a ton of flavor choices in both categories. I got chai, lavender, and earl grey.... what a dream!! They even have Pumpkin Spice Ice Cream right now. I definitely plan to come back to try their Ethiopian food and then have ice cream for dessert!
Best Vegan Ice Cream!!! The vegan oreo my fav. The vegan chai, mint chip are delicious 😋. Black/Fam owned. The also have diary ice cream. They have these waffle cinnamon cones that taste like ginger bread. The ice cream and the cinnamon cones together makes an explosion of flavor in my mouth. Walia Creamery is the best ice cream I have ever eaten. 😁🍦🍦🤩🤩
Best spot for vegan ice cream. Awesome flavors/options and good people here. Vegan chai ice cream rocked my world today.
A friend tipped us off to Walia Creamery. I ended up with the vegan Oreo and my partner tried the butter pecan. Both were delicious, but the most special part of our trip was the homemade waffle cones. Hands down the best waffle cone either of us have ever had! Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside with cinnamon flavor throughout! Yum!
I cant believe we just found this place! The food was all premade and we just heated it up at home. Some of the best Ethiopian Ive had, and weve tried everywhere. The spice was great, not greasy at all, the quiche was super yummy, too. And of course the ice cream was awesome. Friendly staff, too. Lets keep this place going!
One of the best ice cream places I have ever been to! The vegan ice cream was easily the best I’ve ever had (the earl grey was amazing). Wonderful and sweet staff - I can’t wait to come back!
Delicious and great vegan options!! Fair price as well! Our new favourite place
Insanely delicious ice cream!!! Very creamy - most flavors are vegan.
Great dairy free/vegan options for ice cream. Right now they have an amazing pumpkin spice latte. Staff always super friendly.
Our first time here and we will definitely return! I love that they have SO many different vegan flavors. They have 12 flavors, some cream based and some fruit based. Some of the vegan ice cream flavors are oreo, spiced apple, lavender, mint chip, mango ginger, strawberry, and peach. They also have regular ice cream. Small and large size, and also waffle cones. We cant wait to come back to try more flavors. I had the vegan lavender and mango ginger. Love love!
Lavender and earl grey icecream. Yum!
Absolutely love it here. Amazing selection of ice cream, including a huge variety of vegan options. Plus they can turn any flavor into a milkshake.
Delicious! We drove 30min to come try this place and it did not disappoint. Cute little shop. I got a small with half key-lime, half spiced apple(vegan) and it was so good! I dont usually like vegan ice cream but they did it really well. Ill definitely be back to try their butter pecan and the honey ginger pear. The small is plenty of ice cream for me.
Delicious ice cream - love supporting local businesses and seeing my neighbors. Only wish they had ice cream sammies for the deliciousness!
Bought the premade vegan quiche and a couple other meals! They were awesome. tried the vegan ice cream in the shop and it was delicious!
Best service you will find, and amazing selection. Don’t forget to grab a prepare plate of amazing homemade Ethiopian food while you’re there! Who knew!!?
The kind of place where you know love goes into their product. The ice cream is phenomenal and service is everything. Shop local 💗🍦.
Truly some of the best ice cream I have ever had. The vegan ice cream options are lacking in nothing compared to the non-vegan options. Definitely will be going back.
If you are vegan, this ice cream spot is a must! I have never seen so many vegan ice cream flavors before. It took me about 10 minutes to decide which one I wanted because they all tasted SO good. I also got the injera dinner to go and WOW. That meal was absolutely delicious and I have enough for a second meal tomorrow!
My family and I just love this place! A great neighborhood creamery, with just the loveliest owners and employees.They have an entire case of coconut milk vegan ice cream flavors, I highly recommend the Earl Grey tea flavor.Astor also makes homemade Ethiopian Injera every day which we often get for takeout. So it’s basically amazing homemade Ethiopian food on the go, in case you don’t have three hours to have the real Ethiopian restaurant sit down experience!Yeshy is also always so sweet with my three-year-old daughter, letting her try as many flavors as she wants before she finally chooses!Do you self a favor and check out this cozy and super friendly establishment.
My boyfriend and I are ice cream fanatics, so we tried a LOT of ice cream when we visited Denver. This place was by far our favorite! :)10/10 would recommend the vegan coffee flavor and the golden milk non-vegan ice cream!
Must go! Very good and I suggest the vegan Oreo ice cream! Super friendly😊
Just regular ice cream. Staff seems friendly but I havent seen anything special regarding the ice cream.
They have such wonderful selection of both vegan & non-vegan flavors! I’m so glad to have found this business. I’ve recommended it to everyone I know!!
Amazing!!! They are black owned business and have lots of amazing vegan flavors. Their chai tea flavor is out of this world and may be my favorite. I cannot believe that in my extensive vegan ice cream search I have not been recommended this place. It was only because of this vegan Facebook group that I’m in that I heard of it. You definitely need to check this place out!
The vegan mint chocolate chip is the best I have had yet. Something super unique about the cone
This is the best ice cream Ive ever had! Tons of vegan options and an adorable interior. I had the vegan earl grey ice cream and it was very good!
Great vegan options, and a very nice lady that served us.
Amazing vegan options AND the best vegan ice cream and waffle cones we have found in so far in Denver! Bummed this never populated on my Google searches for vegan ice cream. We only tripped on this from instagram and a post about black vegan businesses to support. We will be traveling down from Fort Collins to frequent Walia whenever we can!
Wonderful ice creams and sorbets! They have a new flavor: sweet potato ice cream. It is fabulous!!
Great variety of flavors! Some unusual ones, and several vegan flavors. Super good!!!
We moved to this area 3 months ago and I accidentally went inside this ice cream shop. Up till now, we have absolutely LOVED their ice cream. I can honestly say it is the best ice cream Ive had in the U.S. Not only that, but also the staff is amazingly friendly. I would recommend this ice cream shop to anyone!
Excellent ice cream. This place isn’t as busy as it should be. I think people don’t give it a try when they should only based on the location. They’re amazing.
So happy to have found this! Great selection of vegan flavors, can’t wait to try more! Really appreciated the attention to covid safety and even a little pump of hand sanitizer after using the touch screen. We will be back!!
Okay vegan flavors
Loved the atmosphere, the professionalism and of course the ice cream is some of the best I’ve had. Will definitely come back
Got the ginger pear ice cream. It was amazing. Shop is clean and beautiful. Cant wait to return!
A hidden gem, with amazing vegan options. We loved the mint chocolate chip and chai latte!
Ice cream aside, the people that work there are so friendly and even sweeter than their assortment of flavors. The vegan options are so good and they use coconut milk instead of soy! Definitely check this place out to satisfy your sweet tooth.
BEST ICE CREAM EVER. SHOOBI IS AN ANGEL GODDESS AND I LOVE HER.
Haven’t had lemon sorbet that good in a LONG time - will definitely be back for more
Delicious ice cream that’s made in the shop! The store is charming and the customer service is excellent!!
No over the top foof just yumminess in ice cream form😋 Lots of vegan choices, mine was mint chocolate chip, very tasty. Just read about their waffle cone....another visit is a must🍦
Nice local spot!
Such great flavors! I’m not vegan, but I love the sweet potato flavor!! Worth stopping in. They have a punch card system that’s great too!
The ice cream is incredible and they have a plethora of vegan options as well. My new addiction.
Simply awesome. Great first visit.
They have an entire separate case for their vegan options! loved it :)
Amazing! I got the honey ginger pear in a waffle cone and it was delicious. I’ll be back for sure
Vegan lavender ice cream is AMAZING. Will deff be coming back sooner than I should.
Great service, good selection, and the best ice cream in the city.
The staff is super friendly and the ice cream is excellent!
Absolutely nice
Wonderful delicious vegan /ice cream In the neighborhood! Owners are just as friendly as can be .❤️ Please support local small businesses in your community.
Walia creamery is delicious. the gelato has great ingredients that you can tell are prepared with care and passion with each bite. They have great vegan flavors also so I can get something for everyone at home.
More dairy-free options than any of the other ice cream stores nearby. Everything I tried was delicious!
