Poppy’s Ice Cream & Coffee House

Poppy’s ice cream food truck came by my place of work and it was amazing! Perfectly sweet and creamy treats for a hot summer like this one! I had a double scoop with banana cream pie (the best!) and red velvet. Both were rich and delicious. I hope to find this truck around the city some more this summer because I would definitely hit it up again.

The shop is cute and the flavors seem creative and fun, but the taste of the ice cream wasn’t amazing. I ordered Larrys flavor, which was lemon and blueberry. It was good when I sampled it, but after eating it for a couple of minutes I was tired of it. I also sampled salted caramel, I couldn’t taste the caramel or salt… just tasted like sweet cream. My husband ordered a cake batter shake, it didn’t taste much like cake batter more like a sweet cream shake. I just think the actual flavors are lacking, the flavors aren’t distinct enough. There’s only street parking as the company doesn’t have a lot, so it can kind of be tricky to find a parking spot… especially on the weekend.

Whether or not people show up on ‘Sunsay’ or not, they will certainly find a clean, cute shop in good repair.
I never skip a trip to Poppy’s when I am in the area. This is a very friendly and welcoming shop. There have been some sketchy characters hanging around trying to sell faulty major appliances, but I hear that Poppy’s is addressing that efficiently and I have no fear that the unwelcome charlatan will be put out in no time.

I am obsessed with the Gianduja ice cream at Poppy’s. Why. Is. It. So. Good.
Knowing the employees love working at Poppy’s also betters the experience, and I’m happy to support a local business that treats their customers and employees like family.

sooo good. their sorbet is perfect for summer and the banana split… i don’t want to split it with anyone!

Best ice cream ever! Friendly staff! I would recommend puppy’s to anyone who is in the Lees summit area.

Favorite ice cream in town! Friendly staff and always new flavors to try. Love how clean everything is as well. Our kids beg to go to Poppy’s when we go on walks! If they have the Cucumber lime sorbet, try it! So good!

We love Poppy’s so much! Definitely our favorite ice cream shop in Lee’s Summit! Great selection, great service & environment! Love Poppy’s!

Ice creams and sorbets are wonderful. We enjoy the seasonal flavors that can’t be beat! The place is not filthy, as stated by someone earlier today. The tables and chairs have always been clean… and you can’t help the sidewalk that gets ice cream dripped on it by the tons of happy, satisfied customers.

We love Poppy’s! It’s definitely our favorite place in the area to get ice cream. The texture/​consistency is perfectly creamy and I have yet to have a flavor I didn’t care for. My latest favorite flavor is «burnt sugar»!

Not a better homeade Ice Cream place in the area. Try the unique flavors you won’t find other Ice Cream as good anywhere.

Poppy’s is a great local business with delicious ice cream. I would recommend Poppy’s to anyone who is looking for a great local ice cream joint that also is active in the Lee’s Summit community.

No trip to Lees Summit is complete without stopping at Poppy’s for ice cream. Best in town, hands down!

My absolute favorite ice cream in the Kansas City metro area. The Gianduja is amazing!

We love poppy’s! I have been going for 8 years and my hubby even longer when they were still Doc’s in Raytown! The staff is always super nice and they often times give my little one a baby scoop for no charge when we buy our double scoops. We have never had an issue with them and the fact that there is always a line is a very telling sign of how yummy they are!!! There are always new flavors and lots of choices! Keep up the great work!

LOVE Poppy’s! The whole family enjoyed their ice cream truck at a festival and you couldn’t ask for better! The flavors are top notch and delicious for adults and fun for the kiddos!

How DIRTY can a place get. The outside tables are nothing short of FILTHY, The sidewalk is so sticky and just nasty. How hard is it to be clean? Its not! It shows the owners don’t care, the proof is, you can see the filth. The bench seats inside have shoe prints, dirty shoe prints all over them. The whole place is a pig pen.
Now if they don’t mind letting the customer see that, just imagine how clean they are about making ice cream. Which is a major sorce of bacteria.
Never will I or my family go back.
YUCK YUCK!!!
How funny, that you rely on fake rebuttal comments to rebuke reviewers. I have photos of your filthy facility. So nothing but the truth from my side.
Clean your place up. Anyone who wants to stop by on Sunsay 6-​26-​2016 and wittiness for your self, you will see i am telling the truth. Your place is dirty! Clean it up!

Poppy’s Ice cream has been a staple for my family since the weekend we moved to Lee’s Summit. They brought their ice cream truck to our home for my daughter’s 2^nd birthday party and it was magical for her.
Since then we stop by as much as possible. We love sitting in their cute downtown location. They are always so awesome and let my kids pick.
The owner has also be such a great supporter of my own business and let’s us use their space for events regularly.
The flavors change all the time. We love trying them all. The peppermint white chocolate is AMAZING but you cannot go wrong with any flavor.
Make sure you check this gem out when you visit Downtown Lee’s Summit or if Agnes rolls into your area! You will not be disappointed with taste, service or ambience!!!

Great family environment. Delicious old fashion banana splits! Great service, super friendly staff and a great selection of different ice creams.

Poppy’s is a local owned ice cream shop that I have frequented many times over the years. I love how they offer unique flavors and usually have something new to try every time I am in. Located in Downtown Lee’s Summit, this shop takes you back in time… in a good way. They offer an ice cream eating challenge, a doggy scoop (vanilla ice cream with a dog bone), concretes, shakes, scoops and sundaes. We love to get a scoop of ice cream on a warm evening and then walk the charming streets of DTLS.
Side note: I was really disappointed with Poppy’s this weekend due to an issue with customer service and refusal to accommodate my order. I wanted a smaller portion of ice cream due to dietary restrictions and offered to pay for the full size. I requested two small scoops (kid or mini size) while paying for the full price two scoop. I hope they amend the menu to add a «adult skinny scoop» for folks who need to watch their portions. Charge the same as a regular scoop — we just want less ice cream. I reached out to the owner and she was extremely responsive and professional.
