Northern Expressions

Northern Expressions is the kind of place you stumble into and immediately feel like you’ve found buried treasure—except instead of gold, it’s ice cream and malts (which is honestly better). It’s connected to an adorable gift shop packed with trinkets you didn’t know you needed until now. The line looked intimidating at first, but moved faster than my self-control around dessert. The ice cream was amazing, and the malts? Life-changing. Everything we tried was a hit. Bonus points for the tiny kid-sized table—it’s like they knew our toddlers would need a throne. 10/10, would stand in line again.

Fantastic. Great store & even better ice cream & MALTS!!!

DELICIOUS ICE CREAM. I know people who’ve been coming here for 10 years every single summer on their camping trip. This ice cream store gives warm and welcoming energy and a must stop 📍in Ely.

Great ice cream shop, great flavors, and for prices. Had a nice little indoor area and benches outside. As a side bonus it's shaded outside I'm the afternoon. Malts looked good, but we'll have to try another time.

The 10,000 flavors order was hilarious!! Employees were super friendly and happy to help.
