Description

What's a classic farm treat from a classic farm kid doing in the middle of the city? Pleasing city slickers with rich, gooey ice-cream mainly. See, Pumphouse creamery is the labor of love of Barb Zapzalka, who grew up as one of ten kids on a Little Falls, Minnesota farm, and decided, after a career downtown, that what the big city really needed was farm-fresh ice-cream from family-farm cows. So she opened Pumphouse, named for the first thing you'd see when you entered her family's farm, and now new generations of kids can know what it's like to have fresh ice-cream from organically raised, Wisconsin cows. Take your little one for some rich Oatmeal-Cookie Malted Vanilla, and ask yourself: How are you going to keep them down in the city once they've tasted farm life?

  • 2010 | BEST ICE CREAM PARLOR

    The Twin Cities is chock full of incredible ice cream shops: Grand Ole Creamery and Izzy's in St. Paul, Sebastian Joe's, Crema Café (home of Sonny's Ice Cream), and Pumphouse Creamery in Minneapolis. Each specializes in something a little different, but this year we chose an ice cream parlor that offers creative flavors made from the purest organic ingredients. The shop on Chicago Avenue is tiny, but the flavors are big. We recommend lemon with ginger, which goes down with a clean,... More »

  • 2009 | Best Ice Cream Parlor

    The Twin Cities boast a wealth of good, independent ice cream shops, but this small, well-kept storefront takes top honors this year for its owner's zeal for local ingredients; its thick, super-rich ice cream made with organic dairy products; and its intriguing flavors. Barb Zapzalka uses milk and cream from Crystal Ball Farm in Osceola, Wisconsin, and Minnesota berries (harvested in season and used year-round), honey, maple syrup, and more. Her shop's sea salt and caramel ice cream is a... More »
