Looking for Ice Cream in Limon, Colorado? Stop by Scoops & Giggles

If you've been searching for ice cream in Limon, Colorado, we'd love to be the place you find. Scoops & Giggles is a family-owned ice cream shop and bakery at 180 E Avenue, right in downtown Limon, and we opened with a pretty simple hope: that this would become the spot people think of when they want something sweet.

Some days that means a cone at the end of a long afternoon. Some days it's coffee and something fresh from the bakery case on the way to work. Either way, we're glad when the door opens.

Hand-dipped ice cream, the old-fashioned way

There's something about hand-dipped ice cream that a machine can't quite copy. It takes a second longer. Someone has to lean into the tub, work the scoop around, shape it, and hand it over. That small bit of effort is part of the fun — especially for kids watching over the counter with their chin practically on the glass.

We scoop by hand because it feels like how an ice cream shop should feel. Nothing rushed, nothing automated, just a cone handed to you by a person who's happy you stopped in.

An ice cream shop and a bakery under one roof

Scoops & Giggles is both. Alongside the ice cream, we bake, and we brew coffee and espresso drinks. If you're the kind of person who can't decide between a cold treat and a warm one, that's genuinely the best-case scenario — you don't have to.

It also means the shop works at different times of day for different reasons. Morning coffee and something fresh. An afternoon scoop when the sun is doing its thing across the plains. A little box of treats to take home for later. You can see the general lineup on our menu section, and what's out on any given day depends on what's coming out of the kitchen.

Desserts in Limon, Colorado — for locals and for people passing through

Limon sits where a lot of roads meet, so we get both crowds: neighbors we see every week, and travelers who've been driving a long stretch and want to stretch their legs somewhere friendly. We like that mix. It keeps the shop lively, and it means there's usually a story or two floating around the room.

If you're local, we hope this becomes a habit — the after-school stop, the Friday treat, the little celebration for a good week. If you're traveling, we hope it becomes one of those small memories from the trip that everybody brings up later.
