Overall, I really love Sebastian Joe’s. They have quality ice cream for a decent price and they’re open late. That is one of my favorite parts about this establishment. So that’s why when I came here last night on 02/26/26 I was very disappointed that they were “closed” well before 11pm. I arrived at at 10:46 and I saw they had turned the sign off but I walked up to the door because I thought to myself, “ they are open until 11pm, maybe just getting a jump on closing duties”. So I walked up to the door and it was locked. One of the employees just looked at me but didn’t say anything. I would understand locking the door 5 minutes before closing. But having the door locked basically 15 minutes from the posted hours of operation was frustrating.

I enjoyed the non-dairy strawberry option. During my visit there was also a chocolate non-dairy (vegan friendly) flavor available as well.

Sebastian Joe’s Ice Cream Cafe is a true Minneapolis staple and for good reason — it’s simply the best! I tried the raspberry truffle ice cream and it was absolutely delicious. Rich, creamy, perfectly balanced tart raspberry with decadent chocolate truffle swirls — one of the most flavorful scoops I’ve had in a long time. Every bite was pure joy. The cafe has that classic, welcoming neighborhood feel with a fantastic selection of creative and traditional flavors. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, this place is a must-stop for ice cream lovers. Sebastian Joe’s has earned its legendary status in Minneapolis. I’ll definitely be back for more! Highly recommend — 5 stars! 🍦

Great location. Great environment, indoor outdoor seating. Ice cream is sweeter than other creameries in town. There isn’t any signage about whether corn syrup is an ingredient in their homemade ice creams.
