Waffle Cone offers scoop of nostalgia in 5 Points
Seth & Cassidy Darmata
Something sweet has come to the Historic 5 Points District.
Opened this past April, Waffle Cone offers a “nostalgic ice cream experience” with a broad menu of flavors that offers something for everyone.
The ice cream parlor is owned by Riverside locals Seth and Cassidy Darmata. It offers 36 flavors, including 12 dairy-free and three sugar-free. It was a deliberate decision, Cassidy Darmata said, to create as diverse a menu as possible to create something everyone could enjoy.
“We really, when looking at what we wanted to offer, wanted to be some place that welcomed all types of families, whether half your family’s vegan, half your family’s not. We wanted everyone to feel welcomed and accepted and that they had a place here, so that was something that we really thought about when creating our menu,” she said.
Cassidy Darmata added the support she and her husband have received from the community has been “amazing.” Now, as small business owners, she said they look forward to returning that support to 5 Points.
“Obviously there are a lot of things within 5 Points that we’re really passionate about making better, and it’s been amazing as business owners to now be able to think on a higher level about how can we really make changes in our community and what can me and my husband personally do to help make this community better, and how can we benefit the people here,” she said.
Waffle Cone is located at 822 Post Street. It is open from noon to 9:30 p.m. daily.
