Our New Zealand-style creamery serves up real fruit ice cream, blended fresh right before your eyes. With just two simple ingredients—creamy vanilla ice cream and your choice of real frozen fruit—it’s a refreshingly delicious treat that’s as fun to watch being made as it is to eat.
Served in a crispy waffle cone, it’s the perfect way to end a sunny day by the river. Plus, with vegan options available, everyone can join in on the fun. Whether you're looking for a healthier sweet treat or just an excuse to grab another scoop, Cowabunga Cones has you covered!

-
New Zealand style ice cream is vanilla ice cream blended with real frozen fruit. It’s that simple!
-
Cookies & Cream is our one flavour that strays from the real fruit. We blend frozen pieces of chocolate into our vanilla ice cream and it tastes exactly like cookies and cream. It’s also fantastic paired with fruit, so don’t be afraid to mix it up!
-
Our vegan ice cream base is cashew and coconut. While we take care to minimize cross-contamination, please note that our vegan ice cream is blended in the same equipment as our dairy ice cream, so trace amounts of dairy may be present.
-
An affogato is hot espresso poured over vanilla ice cream.
-
We've simplified our menu by offering just one ice cream size, but we're always happy to accommodate! If you'd like a smaller portion or need it split between multiple cones, just ask our staff—we're happy to make it work!
-
Absolutely! Blend as many fruits as you’d like together. Some of our favourite combinations are strawberry & banana, blackberry & raspberry, and strawberry & chocolate!
