Frosty Treats

Don’t expect the Twin Cities’ beloved ice cream parlors to close up shop, even during the winter. The lines might be a little shorter — just a little — but the joints will still be hopping. In fact, Minneapolis’s Sebastian Joe’s (1007 Franklin Ave. W., Minneapolis, 612/870-0065) offers ever-greater discounts as the mercury dips, and customers are always on hand to take advantage of them.

Although there’s no winter discount at the other ice cream shops in town, you don’t want to miss the innovative flavors at Izzy’s (2034 Marshall Ave., St. Paul, 651/603-1458, www.izzysicecream.com) and Pumphouse Creamery (4754 Chicago Ave. S., Minneapolis, 612/825-2021, www.pumphouse-creamery.com), the Old World elegance at Crema (3403 Lyndale Ave. S., Minneapolis, 612/824-3868), or the small-town atmosphere at Grand Ole Creamery (750 Grand Ave., St. Paul, 651/293-1655, www.grandolecreamery.com).
