Don’t mind the plain storefront: A constant line out the door is decoration enough for Sam Kopicko and Chia Basinger, who reserve their artistic powers for the kitchen—churning out endlessly inventive flavors and receiving countless national accolades in the process. We’re talking honey cornbread, tequila-jalapeño cream cheese, molasses-peppercorn and even sour-cream-and-chive, as well as a slew of one-offs spiked with local beers and spirits. While Sweet Action is our local champ, Ice Cream Riot warrants an honorable mention as an emerging cult favorite for irreverent munchie cures made with frosted Pop Tarts and cheddar Goldfish.
