The Flying Cow

The shop is just too cute for words. We went during Halloween and there were so many cute chocolate treats decorations. My favorite was the milk chocolate coffin with the white chocolate vampire inside. heheWhile we were there we got some gelato too. It was so creamy and flavorful! I personally prefer it to regular ice cream because of how silky smooth it is. And you don't need as much to feel like you are having a special treat.

I loved the creamy, flavorful, made fresh daily gelato, the welcoming, friendly, helpful service and the great location (next to Strang Hall in downtown OP) at this new shop, which offers The Flying Cow gelato and Annedore's Fine Chocolates.Compared to ice cream, Italian gelato has less fat, less mixed in air and more flavor - nice!My medium gelato cup ($5.75) included two generous scoops of delicious gelato, which were packed full of flavor. Fifteen flavors were available including some unique flavors like birthday cake, key lime pie, dino & dirt, pistachio and gianduja (chocolate and hazelnut).The dining area was clean, nice and colorful with background music.I also noticed a large, spacious patio area shared with nearby Strang Hall, street parking and a nearby parking garage.Excellent!

A summertime staple. You owe yourself a treat by getting out here and enjoy a dusky evening on the patio with gelato in-hand. I reviewed the first location of Flying Cow years back and loved it. The quality hasn't gone down at all, and I'm still in love with their grapefruit prosecco flavor. It's light, fruity, citrusy, and delicious without being have a crusty or icy texture the way sorbet has. If you aren't a fan of fruit flavors, I'd also recommend the salted caramel, which is flavorful without being too sweet or too heavy. I wouldn't necessarily recommend the mixed berry, which tastes like the berry smoothie from Costco but for double the price, or the coffee, which was weaker than I was hoping for (the coffee ice cream at Betty Rae's is absolutely perfect if you're looking for that). This Overland Park location is in north OP right next to Strang Hall and a variety of other restaurants, so it's an easy walk over from lunch or dinner. There's lots of seating both indoor and outdoor, the location is very cute, and the staff gives generous samples. Go get that gelato!

There are a plethora of gelato flavors to choose from - several unique flavors that I'd love to go back and try! I ordered a scoop of the stracciatella and a scoop of the dirt and dinos. Both flavors were delectable and creamy, some of the best gelato I've had in the states. I can't wait to go back to try the other flavors!

Rich flavorful ice cream. A must try when you think you've tried all gelatos. You haven't tried the flying cow.
