Are they still cash only?

Yes they are

Do they have a vegan option yet?

Obviously not

When do you close for the season?

Called them. They close October 31st for the winter season.

Do you sell cake

Yes frozen ones

Dose it open now? When will it start opening?

Mm mm can't wait

When's your last day?

They have it posted on their door Nov 3, is their last day.

Are there any sugar free items?

I am not sure , but probably has.

Do they have any dairy-free options?

As a lactose intolerant individual, I have found that their frozen yogurt does not upset my stomach. It's not a dairy free option, but it's something =D

Do they have frozen yogurt?

Yes they do

Are you guys peanut free

I have a nut allergy. And I talked to staff about peanut issues and their products just a couple of weeks ago. They are not entirely peanut free as a business. But, there are peanut free options including icecream sandwiches, cones, soft serve icecream, dipped cones, etc. I think some of their cakes are peanut free too. Basically, those with nut allergies have to stay clear from the hard ice creams. But there are many more peanut free options than what they had a few of years ago.

A treat from heaven! This summarizes the place adequately 😬The only con is that they just deal in cash and no cards. I’d recommend their French vanilla and Strawberry & Cream. The combination is out of this world 😁Tried the pistachio flavour too but it had a lot of pistachios that didn’t let me enjoy the ice cream so I wouldn’t recommend that

Best ice cream in Winnipeg. Highly recommend the Peanut butter chocolate flake flurry - ask for it mixed twice, just to be sure you don't get clumpy toppings. Oreo flurry is a close second.

One of the best ice cream places in Winnipeg. It's also right across from Assiniboine Park where there are lots of beautiful walking paths. This place only accepts cash and lines are usually long, but its worth the wait!

What kind of store in 2020 doesn't except credit card? You can drive six hours outside of the city to any convenience store in the middle of no where and they will accept credit card. The owner runs a VERY successful business but doesn't want to pay the 1.5-2% transaction fee to allow for credit cards. Oh but I'm sure he takes the money he saves from the fees to pay his employees extra money to risk their lives at an ice cream shop in the middle of a pandemic, right? The greed is real.....

I've been to Sargent Sundae countless times. It's one of the main ice cream staples in Winnipeg in the summer and super close to a main entrance to Assiniboine Park. The are sensitive and accommodating to those with tree nut and peanut allegies. They have pre-packaged ice cream products that are completely nut-free, as well as soft ice cream and dipping options (e.g., chocolate) ... and ice cream cakes that are nut-free safe options as well. In the fall, Sargent Sundae has pumpkin flavoured soft serve ice cream (made with actual pumpkin puree) which you can eat in-store or buy containers of it to take home. It's super good. There is free parking behind the store and ample outside seating. Occasionally, there has been live music outside during the summer months.

Good setup for social distancing. They'd provided a line snaking around the building for people to queue appropriately. Despite being a fairly long line it went quite quickly so don't get put off by a long line. The official menu was limited but I ordered off menu without a problem, but don't expect it if it's a busy day.

I tried chocolate fudge brownie and peanut butter chocolate ice cream on waffle cone. Both are awesome and tasty. I like the cone as well. It’s very crispy. They have good outdoor sitting. You can enjoy with your friends and family. They are usually very busy in evenings and nights but it’s absolutley worth to wait in line and enjoy the ice cream. Great experience.

Always a perfect choice for a nice scoop of ice cream. Be it hard or soft serve, they have most any flavour one could want. Milkshakes, ice cream bars and other various treats abound. Enjoy it while the summer lasts. Just make sure to expect a wait in line as I'm not the only fan of this place, as you'll soon see.

Despite guidelines for non-essential services to be closed, an ice cream shop...of all places... stays open during this pandemic. The owners and patrons to this establishment should be ashamed of themselves for putting the safety of others at risk.Several times I have seen customers crowding and lining up to get into the store...Really? For ice cream? It’s shocking and to be honest, when you think of the sacrifices of others, just completely selfish. Will never return to this establishment and after speaking with several others they will not be either.

We normally really enjoy the ice cream here. This past Saturday, we decided to "splurge" on a banana split. There was one piece of banana, minimal ice cream and toppings and a whole lot of whipped cream. It was definitely not what we were expecting from this shop.

This place is a institution of Winnipeg. Although the line up is usually long it is worth any wait. Tried the malt from there last night for the first time and was not disappointed. If your visiting Winnipeg checking out Assiniboine park and walking across the bridge to Sargent sundae is a must.

Went to assiniboine park for the evening for a nice walk with the kids. Decided to cross the bridge and go to Sargent Sundae for the first time. I knew it was going to be good because the line up extended outside. Once we finally ordered, I got 2 scoops of lemon lime sherbert, my wife got the birthday cake ice cream and my son got the rainbow ice cream. I of course tried all three and they were all delicious. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. The cost was also pretty reasonable. Will definitely be back.
