Poppy's

I had grand plans to visit my bestie in Dallas with my bestie in San Francisco and eat a lot of ice cream… in March 2020. As you can imagine, that did not pan out - so glad to finally get ice cream with Bethany! We hit the suburbs for her favorite sandwich while she was here to visit, and landed at beloved-by-townies Poppy’s afterward.

I’ve been to Poppy’s a handful of times before, and I think about it every time I’m in the neighborhood for therapy. However this was my first visit in a couple years!! It seemed like there was not as much depth and breadth of flavor options (or cone options!) as my previous visits, but maybe that’s due to *gestures at everything* surviving the pandemic as a business and whatnot. I got a scoop of Butterfinger, and my friend got Snickerdoodle.

Poppy’s also offers coffee, fresh pastries, and a variety of cutesy candies. I’m still sad that it started as a Raytown business and moved away to Lee’s Summit before I got to town! but I am happy that I am vaccinated and can once again get ice cream with friends!! :D
