    Some seriously good ice-cream with a great vibe all around. I loved the fresh waffle cone and the cold brew blackberry ice cream was something I never expected to work as well as it did. A little pricey but worth it for the unique and local flavors!

    We went on a highly scientific mission to find specialty ice cream and somehow accidentally ended up in Milwaukee’s historic Walker’s Point neighborhood at Purple Door Ice Cream. Honestly, solid choice. I ordered a four-scoop flight because decision-making is overrated: fig & black tea, vegan cinnamon, brandy old fashioned, and road gravel. Road gravel sounds like a bad idea, but don’t worry — it’s salted caramel, chocolate chunks, peanuts, and chocolate cookie, and it knows what it’s doing. If you’re in Milwaukee and thinking, “I could go for ice cream that’s a little extra,” this is your place. Get a scoop, get a flight, judge your friends’ choices — it’s all part of the experience.

    Tremendously delicious ice cream. So many people want to try custard when they come to Milwaukee, but I encourage you to check out Purple Door ice cream. Their ice cream is absolutely fantastic and there’s such a nice variety of flavors. The staff is very customer oriented and will be glad to provide you with a sample taste of any of their flavors. Staff is also great at making recommendations.

    Really long line, but they were very efficient, so it moved quickly. Ice cream was great. And they make their waffle cones fresh daily.
